Attackers fire rocket at U.S. embassy in Athens | Top News | Reuters.com
Local residents called in to state television saying they had felt the explosion, which shattered some windows.
Greece’s biggest domestic security threat, the leftist November 17 guerrilla group, which had in the past killed U.S. and other foreign diplomats in Greece, was dismantled in 2002.
In November last year, Greek riot police fired tear gas to disperse demonstrators marching to the U.S. embassy in Athens who chanted slogans including “Bush the butcher, out of Iraq” and “The USA is the real terrorist”.
In February 1996, unidentified assailants fired a rocket at the U.S. embassy compound in Athens, causing minor damage to three diplomatic vehicles and some surrounding buildings.
Gosh. If it wasn’t November 17, or “demonstrators,” I just cannot imagine who might have done something like this.
Could one of you good folks please help me out? I, like Reuters, am at a complete loss in trying to figure out who the likely culprits might be.


I know it’s just killing you that this might not have been done by dirty filthy Ay-rabs, but this really does seem like something Revolutionary Struggle would do.
You can, of course, provide a link to me referring to them as that, right?
My guess is, that’s more how you refer to them. I’ve certainly never called them that.
Sure he can Bill. He actually quotes you on his website.
Steve M could get a job with the AP, or Dan rather. Just make it up. F**king liar.
My guess is, that’s more how you refer to them.
No, I don’t. But I do refer to you as a snot-nosed little whiner.
You are suggesting — on the basis of absolutely no evidence — that Arabs/Muslims are responsible, right? If I misrepresented you on that, I’d apologize. Otherwise, I have nothing to apologize for or retract.
Oh, and if expressions like “dirty filthy Ay-rab” offend your delicate sensibilities so much, why do you have the Rottweiler on your blogroll?
Hi, shit-for-brains, welcome back.
You’re still lying about what I said, which is what I expect from you morons of the left. Why morons? Well, for starters, in the real “reality based world,” rather than the fever swamp of your fantasies, just about every time something goes boom anywhere in the world, Islamist barbarian savages are involved in one way or another. The odds say that ascribing uncredited explosions to Islamists will almost always end up being the correct explanation.
Anybody even loosely connected to reality understands that, which, of course, lets you out. That said, my gripe isn’t that you disagree with me (I’d probably be doing something wrong if you didn’t) it’s that you’re just flat making shit up about what I actually said.
How about this: “Steve M. calls them ‘dirty filthy niggers’?” You didn’t, but so what? If you don’t like me lying about what you wrote or said, you’re just a snot-nosed little whiner, right?
By the way, congrats on making the short list for this week’s Complete Lefty Dumbass Award here at Daily Pundit. Who knows - your sweaty little blog could probably use the publicity.
As to the His Imperial Rottyness, do you really want to stir him up? He eats rhetorical dog food like you for breakfast.

Been there. Done that.
This phony-tough-righty act is so 2003, sport.
Bark, moonbat, bark!
You’re so easy.
You really can’t do this without resorting to tired ready-made phrases, can you?
Well, party all by yourself, sport — I’m out of here. Have the last word. I know how vitally important that is to you.
Thanks, I will. I generally do, on my own blog.
Dumbass.
