Thessaloniki pogroms

Story at Tanea [Greek]

...on the streets of Thessaloniki on Saturday night. There had been an online call beforehand; without even the pretext of supporting the people of Palestine. An overt, fascist march of hatred against Jews who invest in Greece. With the tolerance of the police. And no, the excuse that the police cannot intervene in a march does not apply here. And where are those hate speech laws? I mean, these guys who target people because of their origin alone, what difference do they have from the Golden Dawn?"

The American School of Spies

"Young set about recruiting the most unlikely of spies—academics, classicists, epigraphers, and other specialists and scholars—who would come to be known as “the Greek Desk.” These men and women, along with their Greek allies, went undercover and tried desperately to protect some of the world’s most significant treasures. The archaeologists hid priceless artifacts in ancient caves, bank vaults, and even underneath the city of Athens itself." AMAZON
