C.C.F.\u00a0\u00a0from the prisons  of Koridallos, regarding his attitude and the persecutory procedures:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>On the 27<sup>th<\/sup> of  April, Christos Tsakalos, for the case of C.C.F. with the upgraded  charge of the managerial executive, was transported to the prisons of  Koridallos, after a call for appearance at the juridical council, where  he denies to appear.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Today therefore, Wednesday the 27<sup>th<\/sup> of  April, I announce officially to the juridical authorities, to not  \u201cbother me again\u201d with their repeated calls for my presence in the  interrogative process, because they will receive my total refusal and my  factual contempt.<\/p>\n<p>There is not even a millimeter of dialogue to be shared with my judges.<\/p>\n<p>As  I have declared repeatedly in front of them, I do not recognize their  process and I deny to legalize it morally and politically with my  presence. I have a clean conscience and I do not apologize to officers  of the state.<\/p>\n<p>The  only ones who will judge my actions are myself, the rebellious people  that choose to be involved in the \u201ccrime\u201d of freedom and history itself.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->I deny to appear in front  of them, chained up with the escort of masked up macho cowards of the  EKAM (special forces) and the Anti-terrorist force, in order to  participate in the joke that they have set up.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, I will not be present at these set up appointments.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, the juridical mafia should be prepared for its appointment with its historical destination.\u00a0Because  these are the times, that apart from the money and the promotions to  superior ranks they receive, the reward for the juridical operators  could be a rain of bullets or a powerful bomb in their car. And this is  not a threat, simply a reminder of facts and possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Despite all this, on the  occasion of my public refusal to discuss with the juridical officers, I  want to say a couple of words about the juridical gangrene that seeks to  infect the anti-authoritarian circles as an epidemic.<\/p>\n<p>If someone follows the  course of the interrogations they reach the obvious conclusion,  Juridical power functions for the state, as did the Inquisition for the  Christian church in the middle ages.<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt  henceforth that the trials that are to come are not simply trials  against a revolutionary organization, such as the <strong><a title=\"Conspiracy Cells of Fire,\" href=\"http:\/\/fotanarchyarchivesfromgreece.blogspot.com\/\">Conspiracy Cells of Fire,<\/a><\/strong> but are the juridical prosecution of an entire piece of the conflicting tendency of the anti-authoritarian movement.<\/p>\n<p>These prosecutions are  dictated by the uniformed will of the State, manufacturing often  outrageous fabrications against anarchist fighters and having as an aim  to criminalize the most active element of the subversive circles.<\/p>\n<p>It is a process of  deterrence of the most fighting and dangerous elements, so to prevent  their constant mobility and their possible composition-connection with  the unforeseen situations that will be caused in view of the  social-economic crisis.<\/p>\n<p>In  order to achieve its plans, the State tries to prove that there exists  an armed network of anarchists that, either is connected with the r.o.  Conspiracy Cells of Fire, or constitutes autonomous \u201canonymous\u201d  terrorist organizations, without however having committed any actions,<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/http\/\/actforfreedomnow.wordpress.com\/2011\/04\/23\/solidarity-to-the-anarchists-revolutionaries-d-fessas-m-tsilianidis-d-dimtsiadis-s-tzifkas-and-to-comrade-g-skouloudis\/\">(case of the Thessaloniki Comrades D.Dimtsiadis, M.Tsilianidis, F.Fessa, S.Tzifkas, arrested in December).<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course the juridical authorities, reaching the zenith\u00a0of offering services to the state,  do not hesitate to imprison anarchist Dimitris Hadjivasiliadis for  simple gun possession (he was arrested in an accidental police check  with 2 pistols with him) \u201cguessing\u201d his intention to use them \u201cin the  performance of terrorist actions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The obvious truth is that  his detention was decided because of his anarchist ideals that were  already filed, from a previous arrest, in the drawers of the police  authorities.<\/p>\n<p>However, the juridical  slaughter does not stop there. The public prosecutor syndrome of this  era that inspires the juridical operators, scans the whole social  spectrum of contacts of the ordered \u201csuspected terrorists\u201d. Friends and  personal relations of the accused are arrested, photographed and finally  imprisoned themselves<strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/actforfreedomnow.blogspot.com\/2011\/02\/letter-from-anarchist-comrade-dimitris.html\">(D.Michail, <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/actforfreedomnow.blogspot.com\/2011\/02\/text-by-stella-antoniou-arrested-on.html\">S.Antoniou, <\/a><\/strong>case of the 6 arrested in December).<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, similar luck is  held for the acquaintances and friends of members of organizations and  anarchists that take political responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>The last ones see more and  more often close or known people to them (irrelevant to the charges that  are attributed to them) getting arrested, decorating covers of  newspapers and in other cases being imprisoned such as anarchist<a href=\"http:\/\/fotanarchyarchivesfromgreece.blogspot.com\/2011\/02\/letter-from-prison-by-anarchist.html\"><strong> Panagiotis Masouras<\/strong> <\/a>and other individuals for the first case of the C.C.F.

If the Media did not exist to prepare the ground, the juridical system  would not have accomplished to apply so shamelessly its barbarity,  without meeting at least as a mound, the \u201cdemocratic protests\u201d of the  \u201cprogressive institutions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The case of the 6 arrested  in December is characteristic. The employees of the fake have a field  trip in front of the cameras and through the television studios that the  suspects (for them guilty) are members of the r.o. Sect of  Revolutionaries.<\/p>\n<p>As well, the first day they  did not hesitate to recognize one of them as the wanted and with a  bounty on his head comrade G.Tsironis (case of the \u201crobbers in black\u201d,  where they accused also Marios Seisidis and his brother Simos, who was  shot in the back by the pigs of the police and afterwards because of his  injury the doctors amputated his leg. Hold Strong Comrade!)<\/p>\n<p>When all these were proven  sci-fi scenarios, the journalists said \u201cNo problem\u2026\u201d and re-served a new  \u201ctruth\u201d of interconnections with the r.o. C.C.F. A directed truth\u00a0that  the society of tv-viewers digested (as easily as the previous ones),  said \u201cthanks\u201d and went to sleep quieter than the previous day and more  disciplined for the next.<\/p>\n<p>Henceforth,  what cannot be condemned with real terms is condemned with spectacular  ones on the \u201cchannel sacrifice\u201d ritual of the Media.\u00a0Today,  only within the generalized climate of emergency that the journalists  direct, the \u201cTheater of Justice\u201d can easily be set up.<\/p>\n<p>Because  today, more than ever, the juridical persecution does not seek \u201cguilty\u201d  individuals, but it chases the general imagery of the \u201cguilty\u201d  collective, targeting anti-authoritarian and subversive circles.<\/p>\n<p>The confusion of the  charges, the blurred legal mesh of trying intentions, the detentions  based on the \u201ccertificate of social beliefs\u201d, the vague orders form a  formula that includes everything.<\/p>\n<p>I therefore personally, as \u201cconsciously guilty\u201d, having taken the responsibility for my participation in the r.o. Conspiracy Cells of Fire, did not expect anything less from our persecutors.\u00a0They were worthy of their wage and their dignity.<\/p>\n<p>When through the C.C.F.  we unleashed a war without limits against authority and its officers,  as was expected we were awarded by our enemy, a sentence without  pretexts.<\/p>\n<p>However, this does not mean that I will not speak.\u00a0Besides,  I am addressing neither the small dictators of the prosecuting  authorities, nor the suited bellies of the directors, neither the  intellectually crippled of the police services, nor a society that in  the place of its heart has placed a bunch of keys; car keys, house keys,  keys to the fence, keys to intellect, keys to compassion, and it locks,  locks, locks its fears, hushing in front of the screens and smiles in  front of the shop windows.<\/p>\n<p>I am addressing the  indisciplined and untamed spirits of our era, the small minorities that  do not bow, the free thinking individuals, the rebellious people, the  wolves that escaped the hunting.<\/p>\n<p>We should not allow the wind to ease, because within us thousands of small fires continue to ignite our mutiny.<\/p>\n<p>Our actions should speak even louder, shout more because on its own \u201cno verse mobilizes the masses, no verse reverses regimes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>It takes struggle, struggle, struggle.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Struggle  with voices and chants on the demonstrations, struggle with a flaming  molotov, struggle with stones, with paint, armed struggle, grenades and  bombs, struggle with the pencil, pen and books, struggle with arsons and  conspiracies, struggle and always struggle.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finishing I remind my  persecutors, that I have their justice written on the oldest of my shoes  (greek proverb that basically means he does not care of it at all). I  know the decisions of the courts that have not happened yet and the  dozens of years that they are charging us with. I know, but I do not  accept to bow the head to them. They should be sure that there will be  harder battles.<\/p>\n<p>As  for my characterization so much by the Media, as well as the juridical  officers, as a \u201cmanagerial executive\u201d of the organization, I throw it in  their faces.\u00a0Because they have learned to function with superiors and subordinates, they should know that the Conspiracy Cells of Fire has neither directors nor followers. Our only ideal is our conscience.<\/p>\n<p>The present text should be  considered also a spark for the hard and nonnegotiable fight that we  will give for the achievement of political co-shelter and the creation  of political collectives inside the prison.<\/p>\n<p>We realize that the democratic totalitarianism unleashes some of its attacks covered up as an iron fist inside a velvet glove.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Already we the members of C.C.F, but also other comrades experience\u00a0the improved regime of modern \u201cpolitical isolation\u201d, since we are scattered to every corner of Greece, Corfu, Komotini Grevena, Malandrino, Domokos, Theva, Trikalas, Koridallos.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most of us have been placed\u00a0in protection wings,  (there are locked up the most filthy subjects of prison, the snitches  and rapists) in order we lose any social contact, or to get us charged  with Disciplinary for beating up some of these human wastes we have for  prisonmates.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I do not forget the regime of isolation that the members of Revolutionary Struggle suffer in the 6<sup>th<\/sup> wing of Koridallos and my support is obvious beyond and outside the political disagreements that exist.<\/p>\n<p>This fight for the fracture of each isolation and for the  constitution of political collectives of accommodation is the first step  for a long course to the unspecified aspects of mutiny.<\/p>\n<p>Closing I will \u201csteal\u201d some borrowed words:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cAnd the judges, as  soon as he entered, leaned over and said something amongst each other.  And then they asked him: Are you many? And he, no one knows if it was a  coincidence or perhaps in order to answer, he pointed outside the window  to the crowd. And the judges shouted: whats the need of other  witnesses? And then they remembered, that this speech had been said  before many years ago.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>And they were taken by a great fear.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dedicated to my brothers, the  comrades of the Conspiracy Cells of Fire, G.Tsakalos, O.Oikonomidoy,  P.Argirou, G.Polidoros, M.Nikolopoulos, Ch.Chadjimihelakis,  M.Nikolopoulos, D.Bolano.<\/p>\n<p>I send also my comrade greetings to the Italian comrades of F.A.I and to the Mexican anarchists of F.L.T.
