Explosion Rocks Main Athens Jail
Just when you thought things in Greece could not get any stranger:
There was a large explosion outside the main prison in Athens on Thursday, Greek police said, but there were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
"It was a really strong explosion that was heard kilometres away," said a police official, who requested anonymity.
The top security Athens prison is in the Korydallos suburb, west of Athens.

bazooka demo.
Oh, you mean Paulson's bazooka?
Oh, Stevie NYC, don't pick on the "village Idiot." Average intelligence, average comedic skills and, delivery. You know Paulson didn't blast a prison - he hit a bank.
lol
Time to break out professional Thiefs to fight professional Thiefs now?
Quick. Someone find Robert Wagner.
They were trying the break G-Pap in, not break anyone out.
Inside a prison will be the only safe place once the riots really take off.

Funny you should mention this:

Whew, I thought they were trying to blow up the walls around a bank. The thought of all those banksters being set free and roaming the streets....
I don't want to even think about it.
lol +1000
Interesting, but will Kanellos be in any of the photos?

The video of that dog was hilarious! He looked like Mel Gibson in Braveheart running the line and hyping everyone up for the attack. Even dogs hate these international bankers!
Hey, it ain't a revolution until they bust open the jail...
but I bet that all those guys that are locked up are innocent. Let's ask their lawyers...
They need to blow a hole in the side of the jail because the vast numbers of crooks in Greece can't fit through the front door!
HEY! No need to insult the greeks! They are just big boned. That's all.
As opposed to those fat American slobs trolling around your shopping malls? Have either of you two dimwhits ever visited Greece or been out of buttfuck USA? Stick to Fox news, Budweiser and masturbating with your guns, pretending they're an extension of your small penises.
Don't hold back now, tell us how you really feel.
Though yeah, ragging on the Greeks is low.
Whoa! Tell me more about this whole 'masturbating with guns' thing. I've been missing out on something apparently!
Rule 34 has been invoked.
I wanna dub it "semiautoerotica."
Same end result as autoerotic asphyxiation. Only louder.
Leo's palm sisters must smell like Hoppe's 9 !
Breakfree CLP!
Women can't resist a man wearing Remington gun oil # 6! And on that note, funny story, I knew a Greek girl once in college. You would have to blow a hole in a wall to get her through. Nice girl though, bad night!
LOL.
just a tip for the single fellas out there, hopppes #9 is the best cologne going; sends out pheremones to the females lettin em know you are a real man.
Hey Leo, as my mom always used to say, two wrongs don't make a right. No need to trash Americans in general either.
I don't have anything against the Greek people, the Greek government sucks like all other governments, just slightly worse. And those union give me something for nothing fucks need to get a life.
No need to fight douche bagism by being a douche bag.
You are right, I got nothing against Americans, just the ignorant, gun-toting, flag waving jingoists who keep telling the rest of the world "we're number one".
Canadians are any better? You can spot one a mile away wearing a patch on a backpack. We love guns just as much the people down south. He who has the strongest military probably has some bragging rights. US military foreign policy is what doesn't digest well for most folk. Deficits are likely going to change this soon.
fools, stop fighting over nationalistic nonsense. thats what the TPTB want. flag waving and insults while they steal your money. wkae the fuck up.
bbtw, leo has a point, we really are a bunch of fat asses compared to greeks (or any other med country). its the diet.
now all of silly bastards, stop playing name calling and keep your eye on the ball. don't fall for conquer and divide. none of us in america/canada/europe have anything to brag about right now.
Who cares anyways about Greece? When this thing is over and Europe and the rest of the Western world has sucked Greece of all its money, Turkey can just overrun the country and take it over. It's filled with Turks anyways and obviously through their numbers they will run the show. Sad but true...the failure of the country that represents the birthplace of Western civilization.
Thanks for showing us what a moron you truly are. I am sure Greeks AND Turks are laughing at this ridiculous comment of yours.
Oh, then that would be the French Foreign Legion then.... Yeah, the ones from Vietnam and Algeria.
May I tote my gun and fly my flag quietly???
Conceled carry is really the way to go anyway. The whole element of suprise thing.
Carry a DAO(or DA/SA), a round in the chamber. It is the only safe way. Generally you don't have time or dexterity or both hands free to get a safety off or rack a slide with adrenaline going. Have an extra mag on you, because generally in a state of focused fear you'll empty the first one, swearing later you didn't even hear the shots. The extra mag might save you from an accomplice or from your own poor marksmanship.
I prefer to take Icelanders as my role model.
Put me down for a couple of those Icelandic models, too. ;-)
Sudden Debt left out 2 letters. He meant to say their being boned.
MsCreant,
Who isn't being boned by banksters? Name me one place in the developed world. As we Greeks like to say, "GAMISSETA!!"
Spoken with all the intellect of 3rd grader. Well done, Weo!
You really must think someone gives a shit about the constant tripe you post here.
Tip: You'll never be Robo....
Listen up moron, I do not want to be Robo, Tyler or anyone else. I am Leo, and damn proud of it. So spare me with your imbecilic comments and grow up already.
Maybe they wanted to put some bankers in.
Either that or set the jail free - and put bars on the walls around the politicos
The police planted the bomb --- it's called job security
yup, just like fireman routinely set fires in greece, portugal.
Clearing a hole for the bankers to bail them in!
Bombs go off at Korydallos every other month. This prison is a joke. Greece's most wanted criminal Vassilis Paleokostas and Albanian convict Alket Rizaj escaped Korydallos high-security prison on Sunday by helicopter, in a repeat of their Hollywood-style escape from the same prison in June 2006.
Great link, Leo. A real Barney Fife operation run over there.
Meh, I've seen photos of european prisons that are much nicer than hotels I've stayed in.
Being a prisoner in Norway, Sweden, or a few other countries looks better than being a prosperous citizen in much of the world.
An old IRA trick, the helicopter rescue from prison.
Best thing about Greece was Melina Havelock and her parents' boat and seaplane.
MAMA MIA JUST STARTED!!!
The bombers thought it was the German Embassy!
Part of the austerity cuts, free the prisoners and save on food and board OR they need some hard core demonstrators for the next round of riots.
Riot dog rocks. ..im currently training my Dogo Argentino in the art of street warfare.
his attack word is "bailout!" you should see him growl when I say it, I know you'd appreciate it :)

When there are guns around I hide my dogs. What exactly do you see as his role in your post apocalyptic fantasy.
Caught my German Shepard chewing the grip on my S&W the other day. Can't keep those damn Germans down I tell ya! I think he was trying to shoot the cat. Evolution is a bitch.
I would assume -- diversion.
So who escaped during the chaos after the explosion? I guess we'll know tomorrow when they don't show up for morning chow.
Post cameras in front of all Swiss banks, and you will find out.
Because Gold still too high, so Greek riot pictures will be shown on CNBC for a while.
Maybe McGruber screwed up again
LOL.
Duh. That isn't news.
Greeks Band Together, Support G-Pap (smear), Urge Others to Support Govt/Financier Complex Worldwide
Now THAT'S news.
Tommorow Turkey's PM and a large number of Ministers are arriving in Greece.
An idea of G-Pap is going to take place. A joined cabinet of Greek and Turkish Gvnt officials!!!!!!!!
The Media must have something to distract people from this act of diminished sovereignity, by the Greek Gvnt.
Anyway, the acts of terrorist groups, like EA, are very helpfull for the Gvnt. Every media will be busy with terrorists and pay less attention to the Turkish delegation and thw deals that they do with this Gvnt of selfclaimed "antiauthoritarians in power"
Oh, come one! No one here has made this connection yet!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastille
And they all lived happily ever after. In fact, their gardens grew ever higher as the bodies of the banksters and their minions decomposed, providing much needed fertilizer.
Just because Iceland is beautiful at sunset - the bottom infrared camera shows the temp of the ash cloud as it comes out.

I tried the Google translator for Romulin to English, but it didn't work so well. Something about rocks, volcanoes, and flaming or maybe blaming some guy named Damnyoukirk?
well ok "street warfare: might be stretching the truth a tiny bit, but his attack word is "bailout" and he's definitely got my back. it would be really cool if he just knew the score like Riot dog though..
Strange? No, the new normal.
AllSingingAllDa...
Yes, your on the right page
Maybe they were trying to make their own
Bastille Day.
Not enough holidays yet. But first they need
to realize they want freedom from incivility.
3 dead in a bank is down right polite. Wait til
they add a few zeros to the daily toll.
Zerzan? is that you?
The Sex Pistolakis have released a new song "Anarchy in the Aegean".
Fascinating report yesterday...40,000 tourist bookings were cancelled last week in Athens due to the riots. People generally aren't attracted to places of chaos, disorder and violence unless they are clinically insane. Imagine a beautiful old house is going to rack and ruin. Termites eating away at it. No-one can be bothered to do the upkeep and there are no plans for rejuvenation. The residents have become lazy and no longer can see the potential of the place. One little old man decided to turns up and start work. He encapsulates the beliefs in a work ethic, production. faith, hope and civic concern like the best parts of the American tradition.
Where is that old man in Greece right now ?
If you can’t control the most dangerous people in your community things can spiral out of control very quickly. If the police, prison and security authorities lose their will to serve and N17 et.al. are allowed free reign all hell will break loose. After the terrible firebombing deaths of the three people in Athens a brief period of reflection transpired. The brains of various people shifted to another gear pretty soon after. Many machinations and alliances are being considered over an ouzo and coffee. The zeitgeist in Greece is interesting. The “Internationalist Comrades” will try and make things spill over the borders. Oh to be a world leader again ! The various pragmatic, intelligent and proud cliques will form partnerships and allegiances to suit their purposes. They will do everything in their power to defeat who they see as the enemy. There are some Greeks who are smiling quietly to themselves about the violence because of what it may lead to. Some people are enamoured of violence. An over-interest in a pathology is a pathology in itself however. (Greek : Pathos, for 'suffering' or 'experience') The passion and action on display inspires them and renews their faith in the primacy and global importance of Greek culture and history.
Was it the Roman Playwright Seneca who said “For whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad” ?
Mad Greeks and Mad Dogs should not go out in the midday sun...
Dude, my bankster brother RECENTLY booked his honeymoon in greece. this demonstrates the intelligence of your average bankster. tell you what though, he couldn't have picked a better girl to get hit with a brick from an angry rioter.
Imagine the pop. of Attica on the streets of NYC
Actually the pigs have been releasing cons into the system for a while now. They dump them in the YMCA. A couple months ago, I was walking home from a concert, and there was a tall guy threatening to stab passers-by and making threatening motions on East Houston St. during a crowded night.
In my adult life, I have never seen the city so on-edge, threatening, and dangerous. I'm prepared and courageous, but I wish that I was in a safe, sane country instead. The police are also becoming far more aggressive in terms of arrests, ticketing, and sport-fucking restaurants.
They will turn it into Beirut or Baghdad before they release their hold on power. And now the crazy-bomber brigade is out in force, making things even worse.
brotha man, not to harsh your buzz, but the city is disneyland compared to the 80's. i'm guessing you are a young feller, coming back from a concert at mercury lounge maybe?
you ever hang out in alphabet city? its trendy central now, not so long ago it was AWFUL.

In the early 90's a friend lived on 8th and B, it was full fledged mayhem. Heroin dealers everywhere.
Javits center, just a boring area now, when I was a little kid (8-12) I used to go to the car show every year with my dad; hookers flashed us and offered services (and orafices) the whole walk.
My grandfather had a biz on 28th and B'way, got robbed a few times, and had to punch clowns out on the subway other times.
Not saying that it can't go back to the bad old days (though I would love to see hipster punks complaining about how the city has lost its "edge" pummelled by thugs) in a few years, but we are still in disney mode.
The main point is do not let one nut on houston affect your viewpoint. you want to see hell on earth, jump on a train to newburg. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/12/nyregion/12newburgh.html
hell, i was on 55th and madison at 2pm a couple of weeks ago and some lunatic started screamin in my face he was gonna kill me b/c i raped the earth of its resources and that Caucasians like me were the devil. i just gave him a wink and kept on walkin.
serf, you're right, newburgh's a pit of despair. i think that's where Ghouliani shipped all the malcontents back in the 90's. followed the Hasidic playbook. it's a shame really, it could be quite a beautiful place. amazing old-school architecture. lots of land w/ good soil for urban gardening. lots of young people that just need a constructive outlet for all that high-fructose corn syrup fueled energy.
and yes, it's still "mickey mouse meets manhattan" though there are glimpses of the old days here & there starting to emerge. hopefully just enough to scare away the transients without reverting back to travis bickle town.
either way, you're dead on that how one reacts in a situation is the key element to how one perceives it. instant karma baby.
