On Thursday 15/6, the government of the "left" in Thessaloniki will welcome the Prime 
Minister of Israel, Mn. Netanyahu for the tripartite summit between Greece, Israel and 
Cyprus. In the last relevant meeting, in November 2015, Mr. Tsipras took care to 
characterize the occupied Jerusalem as its "historic capital" of Israel, thus legitimizing 
the brutality of the Israeli occupation forces. While everyday minor children are shot in 
the streets of Gaza and the West Bank and left by the Israeli occupation forces to die, 
while 6,500 political prisoners (amongst them 300 minors) are in Israeli prisons without 
even have categories, A. Tsipras rolling out the red carpet for the slaughterers of the 
Zionist regime. ---- The trilateral meeting also addresses transnational economic 
agreements touching the energy sector, but also issues of geopolitical strategy that 
artificially covered by authoritarian cloak of "protection" and "security" in the region. 
This of course involves the upgrade of military equipment in the countries, which are 
among the most rigged states of the region and finally immersed in polemoviomichanies 
profitable for the arms trade. Incidentally, the SY.RIZ.A.-ANEL coalition is already in 
consultation with NATO for a new military base in Karpathos.

At the heart of the tripartite meeting discussions is expected to enter the promotion of 
the underwater pipeline East Med, which was confirmed at the meeting that they had in Tel 
Aviv in April, the energy ministers of Greece, Cyprus, Israel and Italy. The Pharaonic 
project will link the gas fields of Israel-Cyprus EEZ and through Crete would reach the 
Peloponnese and from there to western Greece ending in Italy. In consultation is also 
passed and the economic field of electricity and more specifically the Euro-Asia 
Interconnector linking between Israel, Cyprus and Greece, which in submarine cable 
transmission of electricity connecting the isolated energy markets of Cyprus and Israel 
the corresponding EU

The Greek state and the domestic bourgeoisie seeking through such alliances and 
agreements, to obtain a largest possible slice of the pie. They seek to make Greece an 
energy hub for transporting natural gas to EU reach the frame and the Greek bourgeoisie 
with royalty earnings to upheavals taking place in endokapitalistikes conflicts in the 
Middle East, but also unsettled, wider area of the eastern Mediterranean. And that seek to 
accomplish through their binding to the Euro-Atlantic imperialist bloc. There is also 
Israel, which has even the role of the deputy of the Euro-Atlantic imperialism in the 
Middle East and the eastern Mediterranean, forming a strong counterweight against the 
rival imperialisms (Russia, Syria, Iran, China). Relations but between Greece and Israel 
are not limited to economic agreements. The Greek army enlist exercises with Israel or in 
the framework of bilateral agreements or through the NATO and has a clear direct or 
indirect responsibility for the massacre taking place in the Middle East and the brutal 
treatment of immigrants.

The State of Israel is presented today as a democratic beacon in the darkness of 
fundamentalism in the Middle East. As a trusted partner and mighty EU and the North 
American imperialism in the Middle East. Only urban compliments for the Israeli state is a 
far cry from the brutal, militarized reality of the Zionist regime. The Zionist regime has 
based the foundations of territorial establishment, after the Second World War, in 1948, 
and opportunistic response to anti-Semitism and the barbarism of the Holocaust of the 
Jews, finally formed a government formation consolidates perfectly in practice the 
triptych "nomos- security-class "with the most militarized terms. On the substance, it is 
an authoritarian regime, ongoing emergency, applying apartheid against the Palestinians, 
who after being displaced from their militaristic places lived, and is now the law, 
second-class citizens. On the other, Israel attacked openly against neighboring states 
conducting military operations that often result in the occupation of neighboring 
territories. The war of extermination machine and militarized democracy of Israel are 
beyond showdown and an experimental model for other urban states, a potential, nightmarish 
picture of the future.

The initial expulsion of Palestinians followed the ghetto and placing them in a 
consolidated system of exemption. The Gaza Strip is currently the largest concentration 
camp in the world, while the West Bank is under martial law. The blood of Palestinians, 
resisting unrepentant, poured daily and suppression expressed by the Israeli police and 
army against them is relentless. The prisons in Israel are full of 6,500 Palestinian 
prisoners, who not only imprisoned arbitrarily and vindictively, but treated in parallel 
and achreioteris management. Until today, every military attack Zionism against the 
Palestinians raises hundreds dead and uprooted.

In the territory of the State of Israel, the struggle against the Zionist regime, whether 
performed by Israelis (see. Anarchists Against the Wall) or Palestinians, punitive 
treated, often with victims. Equally important is the contribution of the Israeli total 
deniers military service and conscientious objectors who refuse to enlist in the Israeli 
army (a term of three years for men and two years for women), recognizing the oppressive 
and murderous role, while challenging the legal sanctions their choice.

Not surprise us at all the policies of the "first left direction moves." The pre-election 
"progressivism" has already been lost since the dawn of the election and its hardness 
since then proved as walking in the footsteps of its predecessors, with even more 
aggressive steps. We, defining ourselves as part of the social base, we must in the first 
instance to collectively curb and down the onslaught state and capital, local and 
international, to underestimate the work and demoralize our own lives. We organize social 
and class counter-attack that would overcome the brutality of the state and capitalism, 
which would reconstruct society as a whole in terms of self-management, with compass 
freedom, equality and solidarity. Even though the clouds of a generalized war may thicken 
over the Middle East in order to overcome the periodic crisis of over-accumulation 
-domikou element of capitalism in the interests of capital, our own war will always class 
and will always be against both Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, against all kinds of 
racism. Therefore, our class and internationalist solidarity, both to the people of 
Palestine that fights against oppression and atrocities of the Zionist regime, and to the 
oppressed and exploited of Israel is given as for us the universal emancipation knows no 
borders, nor nationalities.

Slaughterers to welcome Palestine as they deserve.

Close to 52  % of abstention. It is with the suffrage of less than 16  % of the 
registrants that the macronists will win, next Sunday, between 67 and 74  % of the seats 
at the Palais-Bourbon. Then they and they will be out of the game to let the Elysee and 
Matignon govern by ordinances. Thus parliamentarism is put to death both by the electorate 
and by the deputies. Never has this democracy appeared more factitious. ---- The electoral 
sequence of Spring 2017 confirms this fundamental tendency: after the presidential 
election - "  the only one that counts  " - the population is completely disinterested in 
the National Assembly, for two reasons. ---- First of all, the deputies do not represent 
their voters. They have no precise mandate and are not subject to any scrutiny by voters, 
and they represent only themselves.

Secondly, to preserve their careers, they generally conform to the directives of the 
leaders of their parties. Thus the "  frondeurs  " of the PS confined themselves to 
platonic protests against the Valls government, and never assumed a vote against.

 From this point of view, the deputies of the republic on the march (LRM) will go down 
even lower since, from the beginning, they and they will grant the Elysee and Matignon the 
power to govern by ordinances.

The Palais-Bourbon is consequently emptied of all importance by the electorate, which for 
the most part abstains, and by the deputies, who, scarcely elected, are obliterated.

The republican institutions are often only the facade of pasteboard of the real power: 
that of the capitalists and the market. Now, this facade is becoming more and more decayed.

It is time to overthrow this system and institute a new one, which will place the economy 
and politics in the hands of the population by the expropriation of capitalists and the 
self-management of all aspects of life.

We hope that the fight against the anti-social attacks that Macron is preparing with the 
Labor 2 law will advance this awareness of a necessary revolution.

On Sunday, June 12, ICE in Detroit kidnapped over fifty Chaldean and Iraqi folks in a 
massive deportation sweep. Family members of those taken, as well as other community 
members and activists attempted to stop the bus from entering the ICE facility, where the 
people would be loaded onto it. Most of the protesters were young, working class Chaldean 
and Iraqi people. Many of them were young women who bravely blocked the bus to the very 
end of the confrontation. DHS pigs shoved and tackled the protesters until the bus was 
inside the gate. Family members rattled the gates and screamed for their loved ones. The 
protesters convened at the gates, and cried and chanted as people were being loaded on to 
the bus. The ICE and DHS pigs laughed at the protesters, one even yelling "fuck you" to a 
family member who was trying to yell to his family who was being detained. As the bus 
tried to leave, shit got heavy, with protesters crowding the bus, attempting to blockade 
it as it inched forward onto Jefferson Ave. DPD and DHS pigs pushed and grabbed protesters 
attempting to move them from the front of the bus.

At various times, they inappropriately grabbed people, and tackled numerous people, even 
shoving a man's face into the ground and screaming into his ear. You could hear people 
screaming for help from the bus, and saying "save us." Several family members were saying 
that they were facing certain death if they were deported. People chanted "Asylum Now!" 
"I.C.E get out of town!" "Let them go!" "Fuck the police and fuck trump!" At one point, a 
young woman climbed onto the side of the bus, trying to hold hands with her father through 
the grill surrounding the window. She screamed "I love you, daddy" before she was pulled 
off the bus. For several of us, many of whom who have been doing political work for 
decades, it was one of the most emotional confrontations we have been a part of. The 
bravery and determination of all the people involved was fucking powerful. The stakes and 
the risks involved for many of them did not deter them from fighting back against the 
obvious attack on their lives and the lives of their community. One woman, overtook with 
emotion, collapsed, then picked herself in order to continue her resistance to the bus. 
The confrontation lasted for almost an hour and spanned almost a mile down Jefferson Ave. 
before the bus got free, getting onto the highway to Ohio.

Earlier in the year, DPD Chief Craig said "We don't do the immigration police work, we're 
not going to". We as Detroiters want to send the message to ICE and all other pigs in 
Detroit that as long as they keep tryin' to pull this shit, there will be resistance like 
this, and it will only grow as the word of their inhumanity spreads through the streets. 
We need to stand together as peoples of all races, genders, religions, and backgrounds to 
fight the state that kidnaps and deports our brothers and sisters. Our freedom is not 
determined by the state, who enacts violence on us every damn day. Liberation will only 
come when we fight the system that oppresses us. The pigs that defended that bus have 
blood on their hands. Time to fight back, time to take the streets!

As the title suggests, this article has been written in response to this article which was 
written over two years ago just before the last UK General Election and as Hillary Clinton 
was beginning her campaign for US presidency. Coming from my own knowledge and beliefs on 
voting I was surprised when reading fellow anarchist Paddy Vipond's article that he 
omitted major anarchist arguments against voting. In addition to serving as a response to 
Vipond's piece I will discuss what he left out under his headings and address some issues 
that have become apparent during this current election campaign particularly with the hope 
that Corbyn's Labour has sparked among the UK electorate and indeed further than that 
among the international electoralist left. ---- I will follow the same opening structure 
as the author and address his arguments in that manner as well as incorporating some 
currency into this article as I write this on the eve of a snap election.

Before I begin, I feel it is important to clarify the misconception that anarchists are 
against voting. We have absolutely no problem with voting - how else could we make 
decisions? We are against a system that allows for us to tick a box every four or five 
years which gives whoever got the most x's to make one-sided decisions that affect our 
lives in a fancy building miles away from us. A system that divides us into a massive 
majority ruled by a tiny minority, that allows for power, wealth and privilege to be 
concentrated into the hands of that minority. We believe that this democracy is a farce 
devoid of any real choice; that voting creates the illusion of change while simultaneously 
reinforcing our current oppressive system. Rather than us being against voting in this 
system, it would perhaps be more accurate to say that we are against peddling the belief 
that any lasting meaningful change can be achieved through engaging in something that has 
been designed to constrain us.

Legitimacy

The most common argument that anarchists make specifically in regards to elections and 
legitimacy is that a vote represents a vote of confidence in this system. This is one of 
the weaker anarchist arguments against voting, one that any electoral leftists could argue 
against with ease when issues such as damage limitation come up, and so I was surprised 
that it did not appear in this article. Instead the author slightly misses the point and 
argues that the anarchist belief is that voting legitimises the government - rather than 
the system - and his argument against this is that "governments take their legitimacy 
regardless of voter turnout". This is very true, it is also an argument I have never seen 
a single anarchist make and am not familiar with it as an anarchist argument against 
voting. Of course if you vote for the Tories and they make it into power then that is a 
literal legitimation for the Tories. But to vote against them and they make it into power 
anyway that is hardly legitimation either and no one, let alone any anarchist, would argue 
against that because it is a basic logical conclusion. Rather, if you were to argue that 
through voting you are legitimising the system then this is an easier argument to make. 
Through voting you are expressing a belief in the "democratic" systems put in place, so if 
the Tories win despite you voting for someone else well, that's "democracy" for you. Of 
course there are many other reasons, systemic reasons in particular, why the Tories could 
very well win this election and many more which has been more eloquently argued by Andrew 
Flood in this article.

To return to what Vipond did include in his piece, he goes on to illustrate a strange 
hypothetical scenario where the voter turnout is at 0% in his attempt to argue against the 
anarchist distaste of electoral voting. In this scenario the 0% turnout means that the 
ruling government remain in power and therefore that a dictatorship takes hold. Not only 
is this hypothetical situation unhelpful, but anarchists don't aim for as little people as 
possible to vote. In the US, only 40% of the population vote in the elections, and while 
there are a variety of reasons behind this, active and deliberate disenfranchisement being 
one of them, a lot of it is down to people simply not bothering to vote. If the author's 
understanding of anarchism and voter turnout was correct then the face of every anarchist 
should be completely covered in egg as it would be bizarre for anyone to claim that the US 
is a shining model for anarchism. The reality is it is a country where the masses have 
been driven to despair and apathy; we have no interest in this kind of society. We don't 
want 0% turnout, it is not our aim, our aim is a society where we are transformed from 
passive observers to active participants in making political decisions about our lives. 
Vipond is quite correct that a lower turnout can be a signifier of higher levels of 
apathy, but he is disingenuous in claiming that this is an anarchist aim.

Further along this section Vipond claims that this argument of legitimacy is wrapped up in 
feelings of self-indulgence, or as he describes it, "a selfish badge of honour". He claims 
that through not voting we are absolved of any responsibility of the political mess we 
find ourselves in. In assuming positive intent I'm left with no alternative than to 
believe that this argument is based on the author's personal experience with anarchists 
local to him as this attitude has not travelled to the Irish anarchist scene. Rather than 
this being an argument against voting it appears to be an observation of arrogant 
behaviour and slightly misplaced for an article meant to tackle arguments.

Fairness

In this section of his article Vipond does not actually make any points that address the 
unfairness of the system, which again can be found in the previously linked article by 
Andrew Flood. Instead, Vipond makes arguments about how withdrawing from the system does 
not make it fairer and does nothing to change it. This is hardly a groundbreaking 
observation and once again, it is not an argument that anarchists make.

Costs

Unfortunately, yet again no arguments are made about costs in this section. Rather, Vipond 
claims that anarchists argue we should abstain from voting because of the time taken (i.e. 
the cost) to educate yourself on parties, policies and representatives. I am yet to see a 
single anarchist organisation make this argument and once again I am concerned about the 
personal experiences that this writer has had with other anarchists. Organised anarchists 
spend quite a lot of their time organising in opposition to the current order, this 
includes familiarising ourselves with ruling - and otherwise - parties, policies and 
representatives. We know this system very well, it's why we oppose it and work towards a 
new world. It would be ludicrous for us to want people to have no knowledge of how much 
ruling parties hate and have policies reflecting that hate.

When discussing elections and costs an argument typically made by anarchists is that if we 
were to engage in them, and perhaps even to use them as a platform for our ideas that it 
would come at a cost that is too high for us to pay. This cost is nothing to do with 
investing time in researching our opponents but in reinforcing the idea that "someone else 
will fix it" that is rampant in our society. As argued by Alan MacSimoin in this article: 
"Elections are about leaving the vast majority of people in the role of passive observer 
of political life rather than active participants. Anarchists want to see working class 
people take an active role in bringing about change in society. Participation in electoral 
politics has the opposite effect. The cost is too high a price to pay." Again this is not 
an argument that Vipond argued against but it is important to highlight it as yet another 
major omission and lack of understanding on his part of what the anarchist arguments 
against voting are.

Effectiveness

In this section the author argues that "the reality is that voting does change things and 
there is absolutely no denying that." On the contrary, we can deny that. Voting attempts 
to provide the population with the illusion of change while in reality it reinforces the 
current system. A policy here and there may change, the faces may even change but the 
system of a wealthy minority ruling a poor majority remains.

So then what happens when voters in England are faced with two massively opposing choices 
between a socialist and a blood thirsty Tory, a situation we now face with Corbyn and May. 
How could a broke anarchist student possibly resist the allure of supporting someone who 
would scrap university fees, especially when it doesn't look like a revolution will happen 
by the time she finishes her degree in two years? I'll admit, I'd probably vote for him if 
I lived in his constituency simply because I can't afford my university fees and I will do 
anything to try to get out of paying them. I remain unconvinced, however, that he can 
deliver any lasting and meaningful structural and political change, especially with the 
Blairites in his party who might as well be Tories who will attempt to thwart him at every 
opportunity.

True power does not rest in parliament, MPs, TDs and otherwise are little more than the 
"committee for managing the common affairs of the whole bourgeoisie." The markets dictate 
what decisions are made in parliament rather than parliament dictating to the markets. We 
cannot elect the revolution because capitalism has a backup if any of its opponents do 
make it to parliament. This backup comes in two forms: the first is the soft force of 
economic terrorism (the markets), and the second is the much harder force of a military 
coup orchestrated through the secret state. Again these arguments have been much better 
articulated by Andrew Flood in his article on Syriza and I am conscious of the length of 
this response.

I'm also cautious of this being seen as unchecked pessimism, this is not my motivation. 
Capitalism is all about quick fixes, about the speed of service, about receiving something 
in an instant, this is deeply ingrained within us. So when we are presented with a quick 
fix, a vote to make all our problems disappear, of course we are going to be viewed as 
pessimistic when we maintain that it's not going to work, that we have to build a more 
sustainable resistance. Rather, we would prefer people didn't spend their time getting 
sucked into this system of parliamentary democracy in the first place and instead fought 
against it and for a new world.

To return to the article, Vipond makes an astounding claim that voting has played a major 
role in social change since the beginning of the 20th Century. This is not true and it is 
shocking erasure of the mass movements that lie behind every great social change. Societal 
change occurs in consciousness of the masses before it is reflected in parliaments and 
other ruling class institutions. In these instances it was not voting that was effective, 
but the work that occurred on the streets, within homes and workplaces and other places in 
changing opinions.

So, Why Vote?

In this section Vipond argues that non-voting protects the state therefore implying that 
voting weakens it. I'm not so sure how participating in something that makes people 
believe that their vote every four or five years provides them with any say or control 
over their lives does damage to a system that is all about trapping people within a false 
consciousness in order to exploit them. Shockingly the author seems to think that by 
stating that voting is "a right enshrined by law" this would convince anarchists to vote. 
The law of the bourgeoisie you mean? The same law that has seen many of us and our 
comrades in its courts for legitimately acting against it? I think Vipond is barking up 
the wrong tree with this argument.

The author then proceeds to make an argument for damage limitation, and of course if you 
are in a constituency where it is a neck and neck competition between a UKIP candidate and 
Labour candidate no one could blame you for voting for Labour and if I was in such a 
situation I would probably do so. But to do so without actively fighting - capacity 
permitting - against the conditions that has led to such a dangerous level of UKIP support 
is shirking of the highest order by anarchists.
This argument naturally leads to one of choosing between the lesser of two evils. We saw 
very recently in the US where voting for the lesser evil eventually gets you. It led to a 
choice between a "pussy-grabbing" living breathing manifestation of all oppression and a 
war-mongering symbol of capitalist imperialist hegemony. When you constantly choose 
between the lesser of two evils in this society it allows for those who represent that 
evil to push their boundaries. Instead of the levels of evil decreasing the opposite occurs.

Vipond goes on to make an attempt at pragmatism by advocating "evolution through the 
ballot box whilst awaiting the necessary conditions to enact a revolution in society." 
Organised anarchists don't sit around "awaiting the necessary conditions to enact a 
revolution in society", we work very hard to try to create them. History has shown us that 
when campaigning for these conditions to be realised is combined with electoralism as one 
of the tools we see campaigning becoming subservient to electoralism. Those of an 
electoral persuasion involved in campaigns are forever on the lookout for opportunities to 
get their profile out there, or are trying to find ‘leaders' who could perhaps contest the 
next election. This isn't done out of ego of course, well it's certainly not a leading 
cause, it is done because those who subscribe to this ideology believe in using the 
platform of elections to advance their own ideals, something I have already dealt with 
throughout this article in particular in the costs section.

The remainder of the article is essentially an argument for the benefits of reform and 
pushing parties to the left through voting. This reinforces the illusion that there is 
power in your vote. On a superficial level there certainly is, you get to have a say in 
who fills the seat, what they'll look like, what excuses they are likely to give when they 
renege on an election promise, but ultimately you do not get a say in what kind of system 
we live in. The system we live in is supported by farces such as parliamentary democracy, 
it has been well honed and crafted to serve it well. Are we really arrogant enough to 
believe that we can take such a system of preservation and subvert for our own ends? That 
after hundreds of years of being divided between rulers and ruled we can curb the tide of 
history by using one of the very mechanisms that has kept us locked into it?

Throughout Vipond's article he lacked a comprehensive understanding of how this system 
operates and how voting ties into it as well as an understanding of the anarchist 
arguments surrounding voting. In many instances he argued against arguments that no 
anarchist organisation would ever make. When we argue against voting we don't mean that 
abstaining is the route to anarchism, we make this argument to try to highlight the scam 
that is voting and to encourage people to make political decisions and actions in other 
ways. To become directly involved in building communities of resistance and support. We 
have absolutely no interest in encouraging apathy yet in many instances Vipond seemed to 
think this was the aim, or at the very least a massive consequence that we were directly 
responsible for and willfully neglectful of. The most dangerous statement made in this 
article that really reveals the poverty of his knowledge on the subject is where he 
claimed that "voting in elections is not only a duty of anarchists, it is the single 
easiest weapon at our disposal". After highlighting all of the negative effects that 
voting can have - of course exceptions can be made such as the case of UKIP vs Labour that 
was mentioned - it is clear that voting in parliamentary elections is far from our single 
easiest weapon. Indeed it is clear that it is the single easiest weapon of the ruling 
class in fooling us into thinking we have any say in this society.

Whoever is voted in tomorrow, we still have a world to win and that fight will continue 
until every institution and manifestation of oppression is dismantled. While institutions 
of oppression remain we have a fight on our hands; while we're still placing an x in a box 
every couple of years in the belief that this is true power or democracy we are not free.

Here is to solidarity among all those who suffer and who struggle for change: "It is 
learning how to stand alone, unpopular and sometimes reviled, and how to make common cause 
with those others identified as outside the structures in order to define and seek a world 
in which we can all flourish. It is learning how to take our differences and make them 
strengths. For the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They may allow 
us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about 
genuine change." - Audre Lorde

Greece-Cyprus-Israel. In the course participated networking collectives and Palestinians, 
the left-wing political organizations, people from trade unions, while at the end of the

police state that existed in the city for 2 days did not discourage the demonstrators, the 
march was loud and continuous pulse, while cast and paint at the entrance of the American
