The anarchists are very anti-state in any form
Investigators say none of the devices examined so far contained lethal amounts of explosives, unlike those used by Yemeni militants. Authorities say the mail bombs are not part of an international terrorist action, but purely domestic.
Brady Kiesling, a former U.S. diplomat who studies Greek political violence, says the mail bombs are part of a symbolic action, not aimed at causing harm.
"The anarchists are very anti-state in any form," he says. "Embarrassing the government of Greece is something they're happy to do. It's very much a response to acts of police and
widespread government repression — quote unquote — of anarchists."
