Anarchist Struggle's method has been to douse cars in flammable liquid and set them on fire, which indicates a low level of technical sophistication compared to the larger Greek terrorist groups such as N17 and ELA.  Their last attack also suggests a lack of political savvy.  They chose to destroy the car of Yugoslav diplomat Prentex Stephanovis, despite the fact that Yugoslavia enjoys huge support among Greeks, particularly since the 1999 NATO bombing of Kosovo.

Anarchical Attack Groups, Anarchists Attack Group, Anarchists' Attack Groups

Between November 2000 and April 2001, the Anarchists' Attack Group (AAG) was involved in at least 5 attacks, bombing a total of 8 banks in the Athens area.  Despite the fact that the group was, for that 6-month period, one of Greece's most active terrorist groups, little is known about their structure or ideology.  When AAG has stated its reasons for attacking, they have reflected an anti-American, anti-establishment ideology common to most Greek terrorist groups.  AAG has attacked in solidarity of imprisoned anarchists, Turkish prisoners, and in protest of George H.W. Bush's April 2001 visit to Greece.  AAG is somewhat unusual among Greek terrorists in that it only bombs banks, which may indicate that they are particularly rabid anti-capitalists.  The name Anarchists' Attack Group implies a coalition of groups rather than a single organization, although AAG may have been deliberately misleading authorities with its choice of name.

Anarchists' Attack Group has not attacked since April of 2001.  The group may have become inactive.  AAG, however, was very active during its 6-month lifespan, which suggests that the group had more structure than most Greek terrorist organizations.  That structure may still exist, even if the group has not committed an attack recently.

The Anarchists was a small Spanish terrorist organization that existed for a short period in 2000.  The group claimed responsibility for sending several explosive packages to La Razon, a conservative newspaper in Madrid, Spain.   Based on its self-assigned name, it can be safely assumed that this group's attacks were motivated by anarchistic intentions.  Beyond general anarchist beliefs, this small group protested the treatment of prisoners and advocated the release of sick prisoners and the abolition of solitary confinement in prisons.  A final clue to the group's principles was the inclusion of Dostoievski's book,  Crime and Punishment, which was used to hold an explosive in one of the group's attacks. <p> Initially following the April attack against La Razon, the incident was attributed to another Spanish terrorist organization, Basque Fatherland and Liberty (ETA).  In addition, some media reports have proposed that the Anarchists' attacks could actually be the work of yet another terrorist group, First of October Antifascist Resistance Group.  A direct linkage between the Anarchists and any other terrorist organization has not been proved.
