Like many groups that have been implicated in a small number of attacks, it is possible that the Revolutionary Socialists never existed as an independent terrorist organization.  It is possible that the name, Revolutionary Socialists, was used as a cover name by a larger terrorist organization.  However, no linkages between the Revolutionary Socialists and any other terrorist entity have ever been made public.  Since the group has not been heard from since 2000, it is presumed to be inactive.

Revolutionary Nuclei -- Ally (Suspected)
Revolutionary Organization 17 November (RO-N17) -- Founding Group (Suspected)

EA has managed to carry out rather powerful, high profile attacks while avoiding any instances of detection or apprehension.  In fact, no information is yet available on the group's actual size or leadership structure.  The fact that prior attacks have not been fatal can be attributed more to luck than to inadequate planning since the locations selected and amount of explosives used have been nothing short of ideal.  <P><br /><br />It is highly likely that EA will remain active and continue planning attacks in Greece.  Not only is the country's political and economic climate still a source of rebellion for the group, but also their previous success and current underground status serves to solidify their image among other revolutionaries.  As a result, we can expect EA to grow in size and strength, particularly in the absence of thwarted attacks.  <br /><br /><br />

Revolutionary Faction to Overthrow Commando Unabomber

Little is known about Revolutionary Subversive Faction-Commando Unibomber (RSFCU) other than the details of their only attack.  In January of 1998, RSFCU bombed the Thessaloniki offices of Hewlett-Packard.  The attack was a show of support for Unabomber suspect Theodore Kaczynski.  Kaczynski, an American math professor, had pled guilty the week before to a letter-bombing campaign that spanned two decades, wounded 29 people, and killed three.  RSFCU's choice of an anti-government bomber as its hero and its decision to bomb an American corporation suggests that they share the anti-establishment, anti-globalization, and anti-American ideology that is common to most Greek terrorist groups.  Greek terrorists have declared their support for other imprisoned Americans in the past, most frequently Mumia Abu-Jamal.
