The head of the Security Police of Thessaloniki said, "This is not an important group.  They are possibly young people who are barely related to terrorist organizations." (Tasioulas, 9/15/99)  If LEM's attacks have a focus, it is the Greek police and government.  This indicates that it probably holds the same anti-establishment, leftist revolutionary views as other Greek terrorist organizations.  LEM is somewhat unusual in that it attacks in Thessaloniki rather than Athens.  Relatively few groups have claimed responsibility for attacks in Thessaloniki.  These groups include the Movement Against State Arbitrariness, the Revolutionary People's Struggle (ELA), Rigas Ferreos, Revolutionary Struggle, and the Anti-Authority Erotic Cells.  Greek police consider it possible that the fact that these groups have attacked in the same city means that some of them share members.

Popular Revolutionary Resistance Group is no longer active.

Lebanese Liberation Front -- Suspected Alias/Ally

The Popular Revolutionary Resistance Organization was an anti-Syrian group in Lebanon that was only responsible for one attack on a Beirut hotel where Syrian intelligence officials were residing. Sources dispute the nature of the explosion that wounded four. Some claim that it was caused by a rocket fired from outside, while others report that it resulted from an incendiary device or dynamite. The group revealed in its claim of responsibility that it opposed Syrian involvement in Lebanon's affairs and was frustrated with Syria's military presence in Lebanon. The group also warned of further attacks but no other attacks were forthcoming.

It is possible that the Popular Revolutionary Resistance Organization was an alias for the Lebanese Liberation Organization, a group that shared similar goals and conducted anti-Syrian attacks around the same time period. In any case, given that Syria has since withdrawn from Lebanon, both groups are considered to be inactive.
