Due to their continued rise and their alomst certain possibility of becoming a major top political party in the coming future. I think a brief history about the organization, and their political beliefs is warranted. History 1980-2005In December 1980, Nikolaos Michaloliakos and a group of supporters launched Chrysi Avgi magazine. Michaloliakos (a mathematician and a dishonourably discharged former commando reservist officer) had been active in far right politics for many years, having been arrested several times for politically motivated offences, such as beatings and illegal possession of explosive materials, which led to his discharge from the military.[17][18][19] While he was in prison, Michaloliakos met the leaders of the Greek military junta of 1967–1974 and laid the foundations of the Golden Dawn party.[18] According to the newspaper Eleftherotypia the characteristics of the magazine and the organisation were clearly National Socialist.[17] Chrysi Avgi magazine ceased publication in April 1984, when Michaloliakos joined the National Political Union and took over the leadership of its youth section.[18] In January 1985, he broke away from the National Political Union and founded the Popular National Movement – Golden Dawn, which was officially recognised as a political party in 1993.[18] Golden Dawn remained largely on the margins of far right politics until the Macedonia naming dispute in 1991 and 1992.[17] The Greek newspaper Eleftherotypia reported that on October 10, 1992, about 30 Golden Dawn members attacked students at the Athens University of Economics and Business during a massive demonstration against the use of the name Macedonia by the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.[20] Around the same time, the first far-right street gangs appeared under the leadership of Giannis Giannopoulos, a former military officer who was involved with the South African Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging (AWB) during the 1980s.[17] After the events of 1991 and 1992, Golden Dawn had gained a stable membership of more than 200 members, and Giannopoulos rose within the party hierarchy.[17] Golden Dawn ran in the 1994 European Parliament election, gaining 7,264 votes nationwide; 0.11 percent of the votes cast.[21] During the 1980s the party embraced Hellenic Neopagan beliefs, praised the Twelve Olympians and described Marxism and liberalism as "the ideological carriers of Judeo-Christianity."[22] The party went through ideological changes later and welcomed Greek Orthodox Christianity.[23] Today, the party's official stance on religion is that the Byzantine Empire protected Hellenism and the ancient Greek pagan spirit. According to its current beliefs, the Greek Orthodox Christianity captured and keeps the indigenous spirituality of the Greeks alive[citation needed]. A number of Golden Dawn members participated during the Bosnian War in the Greek Volunteer Guard (GVG), which was part of the Drina Corps of the Army of Republika Srpska. A few GVG volunteers were present in Srebrenica during the Srebrenica massacre, and they raised a Greek flag at a ruined church after the fall of the town.[24] Spiros Tzanopoulos, a GVG sergeant who took part in the attack against Srebrenica, said many of the Greek volunteers participated in the war because they were members of Golden Dawn.[25] Golden Dawn members in the GVG were decorated by Radovan Karadžiæ, but — according to former Golden Dawn member Charis Kousoumvris — those who were decorated later left the party.[25] In April 1996, Giannopoulos represented the party at a pan-European convention of far-right nationalist parties in Moscow, where he presented a bust of Alexander the Great to Liberal Democratic Party of Russia leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky for his birthday.[17] Golden Dawn participated in the 1996 legislative election in September, receiving 4,487 votes nationwide; 0.07 percent of the votes cast.[26] In October 1997, Giannopoulos published an article in Chrysi Avgi magazine calling for nationalist vigilantism against immigrants and liberals.[27] In 1998, a prominent party member, Antonios Androutsopoulos, assaulted left-wing student activist Dimitris Kousouris. The resulting media attention, along with internal party conflicts (due to poor results in the 1996 elections), led some of its most extreme members to gradually fade from official party affairs.[17] Androutsopoulos evaded arrest for seven years, with the alleged assistance of sympathetic members of the police.[citation needed] He finally surrendered in 2005, and was convicted in 21 years prison term for triple attempt of murder against Kousouris and another two left wing activists. The rest of the members of the squad that hit Kousouris were never legally prosecuted. In March 2009, Androutsopoulos was judged in a second degree and took 12 years, to be finally released from prison a few months later. Meanwhile, Golden Dawn continued to hold rallies and marches, and it ran in the 1999 European election in an alliance with the Front Line party, gaining 48,532 votes nationwide; 0.75 percent of the votes cast.[17][28] Eleftherotypia criticized Chrysi Avgi in 2005 after party members distributed homophobic fliers during an Athens gay pride parade.[29] [edit] 2005 and later According to Golden Dawn's leader, Nikolaos Michaloliakos, the party suspended its own autonomous political activities after December 1, 2005, due to clashes with anarchists.[30] Golden Dawn members were instructed to continue their activism within the Patriotic Alliance party, which was very closely linked to Golden Dawn.[31][32] The former leader of Patriotic Alliance, Dimitrios Zaphiropoulos, was once a member of Golden Dawn's political council, and Michaloliakos became a leading member of Patriotic Alliance.[18] There were accusations that the "Patriotic Alliance" was simply the new name of Golden Dawn.[33] Activities by Patriotic Alliance's members were often attributed to Golden Dawn (even by themselves), creating confusion.[32] This is the main reason Golden Dawn's members announced the withdrawal of their support of the Patriotic Alliance, which eventually led to the interruption of Golden Dawn's political activities.[34][35] In March 2007, Golden Dawn held its sixth congress and announced the resumption of their political and ideological activism.[36] In May 2012, WordPress shut down Golden Dawn's official website and blog due to death threats against journalist Xenia Kounalaki.[37][38][39] Golden Dawn launched a new website at xryshaygh.com a few days later. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Dawn_(Greece)

Ôáõôüôçôá (Political Identity)GOLDEN DAWN is a social and nationalist movement with structures, principles and positions. It is active in the political life of the country since the mid-90s, having taken part in European elections (1994, 2009) and national elections (1996, 2009). On 7 November 2010 the Golden Dawn participated in the municipal elections. In the recent election of June 17, 2012 it received 7% and elected 18 MPs. The social nationalist movement of GOLDEN DAWN finds itself at the frontline of the struggle against the nation-killing memorandum and the sinful regime of the parties that consist the political establishment. We fight against altering our racial demographics by the millions of illegal immigrants, and the dissolution of the Greek society promoted by both the coalition parties and the so-called left. We propose a national strategy so that we can overcome the crisis imposed on our country. We are struggling for a Greece which belongs to the Greeks. WHAT BEING A GOLDEN-DAWNER MEANS 1) I embrace the third major ideology of history, the one that is the most rooted in the history of my people. Opposed both to communist internationalism and universalism-liberalism. 2) I embrace the need for a state founded and built based on this ideology that nourishes and guides continuously our lives as individuals and as a society. A state that constantly serves the eternal revolutionary principles of the nationalist worldview, with the ultimate goal of forming a new society and a new type of man. 3) I embrace the moral imperatives arising from my worldview and aim to a radical renewal of the obsolete and counterfeit social values. My ideology is not looking to salvage anything from the installed economic and social interests that lead nations, peoples and cultures in decline. So I'm an enemy of every power that perpetuates this sepsis that finds foothold in plutocracy. Whether this power is a military-financial dictatorship or a parliamentary dictatorship. Because those are the two sides of the same coin, and their purpose is tearing down national identity. 4) I 'm aware that nationalism is the only absolute and true revolution because it seeks the birth of new ethical, spiritual, social and mental values. The right and left solutions supposedly fighting each other, are just a fake theater of two partners who perpetuate the dominance of cosmopolitan internationalists, anti-national and anti-social forces. 5) I believe the only state that serves correctly it's historical role is the social state, where political power comes from the people, without party promoters. Nationalism sees people not only as a numerical entity of individuals but as a qualitative synthesis of people with the same biological and spiritual heritage, which is the source of all creation and expresses its power in the social state. The only state that can represent the people as an organic and spiritual living whole. 6) The polticians on both the right and the left are deliberately lying, democracy means rule of the people, and therefore the society that is comprised of people of common origin (definition of Citizen in Classical Athens). The social state of nationalism is the only direct democracy. The state were the people are the only reality and do not need authority but leadership. The People are the real sovereign and rule themselves through their leader. So the social state can fulfill the only possible equality (derived from thought and that is not of natural, but human cultural - political creation), equal opportunities. In contrast to the transient and fleeting majority of parliamentary governing, the will of the people is the supreme law, and obedience to it results in true justice from the whole to every unit. ...... 7) I realize that in the social state of the nationalist ideology exists the ultimate equality and the politically structured social equality. In the social state there is no social stratification based on income-economic classes. The social classes are collaborating organically groups of people with different abilities and production skills each, just like in a living body. The different systems contribute harmonically and in full cooperation for their survival. Solidarity is the rule of the social state for the relations between social-organic classes. The few people who have burgled their organic relationship with the people are the members of "plutocratic oligarchy" with their cosmopolitanism, and members of the leading groups of "Bolshevik party-union oligarchy" with their internationalism. The oligarchies of money and the tyranny of political parties are the same- enemies of the Nation and the People. 8) I am an enemy of vast exploitative wealth, either locally or internationalist, and a champion of small family ownership like the "kleros" or "temenos" of our ancestors. Money is a mean of necessity, not a governing principle of life or the purpose of it. The ultimate goal of the social state is the elimination of tiered false-value of money and the controlled use of it as a trading mean. The state should control private property so that it is not dangerous for the survival of the People or can manipulate them. The economy should be planned so that it serves the national policy and ensures the maximum self-sufficiency without dependence on international markets and control of any multinational companies. 9) I believe that the state, the social state, is the political organization of the nation and that the nation exists from itself without being an invention. It is an automatic spiritual fact that springs from the existence of the People, it is a reality that is based on the existence of the People. Whether or not the People realize the extent and depth of its existence, the Nation is the highest spiritual entity. The People are born from the tribes, the types of a race and its existence gives birth to the nation as a superior spiritual manifestation (moral, cultural, religious). Derived from the people, the nation - race, needs to be strengthened and developed through the state. It may exist without a state but will be steadily declining (See the national rise of the Greeks after 4 centuries of subjugation and lack of state). So I understand that international communism and liberal cosmopolitanism are undermining the nation by stirring up class divisions. 10) I believe in the importance of society, the whole community of the People, not the individual. The individual acquires a face and forms it's shape, it's "I" identity through the "We" of the total. Individuals do not have historical significance as opposed to the people who are condensations spacetime of special qualities of the People and the Nation. A person can only be one who completes the socialization through capability, as harmonious comition of social and individual values. This superior type of person is a new kind of person that nationalism seeks to create. 11) I honor and respect the tradition because it consists all the aspects of beauty and the good that occurred and revealed in history. While grounded in tradition I seek the new creation, the incessant evolution. 12) The social state of nationalism delivers social equality of opportunities grounded in meritocracy and does not ignore the law of diversity and difference in nature. Respecting the spiritual, ethnic and racial inequality of men we can build a society with egalitarian laws. This egalitarian laws are the proof of the moral transgression of nationalism and show that there is no legal modulation to protect the naturally existing institutional inequalities that are an integral part of nature and life. In contrast to this, the social - national state gives the same margin of enhancement and sealing to every different element of existence. So, as a nationalist, I fight all forms of destructive policies (regarding nations, races, men), and any false inequality and oligarchy (money, party, perversion). ARISTOCRACY IS BORN OF MERITOCRACY, THIS IS WHY I FIGHT AGAINST ALL FORMS OF OLIGARCHY www.xryshaygh.com/index.php/kinima

They are not commnists. They might be nationalist socialist though. Alot of their ideas seem to be aligned with that of NS.
They believe in aristocracy, but they make it clear that leaders, geniuses, elites of a nation are not restricted to a class or social standing, they can be of any class. Golden Dawn like the third reich aims at having a system of merit, where the best and the brightest are spotted and given the opportunity to work their way up. Leadership positions will not be handed down through inheritance or through the masonic brown nosing (to the jew).
Golden Dawn has big dreams and good intentions that is clear enough.

Greek police say 2 Golden Dawn members were slain at 'point-blank'
ATHENS -- Police investigating the slaying of two members of the far-right Golden Dawn party and the serious wounding of a third person said Saturday the assailant finished off his victims at point-blank range before escaping on a motorcycle driven by an accomplice.
Golden Dawn spokesman and lawmaker Ilias Kassidiaris said "the souls of Giorgos and Manolis are guiding lights" for the whole country.
"The Greek people will remain united, and together will keep on moving forward during this difficult and critical period our homeland is going through," he said.
The police's counterterrorism squad is investigating the case. Suspicion has fallen on one of several far-left and anarchist extremist groups that have claimed to be behind violence that has killed two policemen and a journalist. No group has yet claimed responsibility. www.ctvnews.ca/world/greek-police-say-2-golden-dawn-members-were-slain-at-point-blank-1.1525161Hundreds Attend Memorial For Golden Dawn Members Killed In Athens (Video)
Golden Dawn party supporters gathered for a memorial outside one of the party's Athens offices on Saturday to honor the two members killed in a shooting there. People held lit candles and placed flowers at the entrance to the building, surrounded by a police security cordon and police vehicles, and sang the national anthem. An Orthodox priest performed a religious ceremony and joined the mourners in singing the national anthem. They then held a minute of silence for the victims. On the ground, a memorial had swelled that included flowers, candles, and the photographs of the two men killed. Family members and friends cried over the memorial. www.carbonated.tv/news/hundreds-attend-memorial-for-golden-dawn-members-killed-in-athens-videoGod Bless Giorgos and Manolis, may these righteous patriots rest in peace.

BOTH SYRIZA AND XA ARE NWO PUPPETS ... Dude Uz, you are making me laugh .... i just cannot believe that a Serb would be so freakingly naive....... i cannot believe that...

We live in the same district. All they do is growl and scream like genuine hooligans. Nothing Greek about them, not even remotely. They (just like you) are the perfect NWO tool. Along with neo-liberals and neo-leftists, those two groups (bred and fed by NWO) can provide all the ammunition you'd ever want for yet another civil war...

You almost "befriend" a top gun GD member, yet you know absolutely nothing of them, all you get out of this "almost" befriendship... is that they "growl and scream like genuine hooligans".

I don't understand the video so I'll assume the almost obvious that 2 GD members confront politicians face-to-face and exchange a few or a lot of harsh words. GD probably sees these individuals as traitors, thieves, liars? ....or are you trying to say everyone is innocent except GD and these members are delusional. Unless I am missing something please explain, because I don't see anything wrong. You calling them Albanian is hilarious, IF they do have Albanians in their ranks who cares, these are the ones who care more for Greece than YOU, Greece would need them more than YOU. This is beyond stupid Balkan politics understand this.

I don't believe you, they would never talk to you unless you spoke undercover, which is deceiving and cannot be taken seriously. You got it wrong once again.... The area where i live is full of right-wing ppl (who like you accuse communism 100% of the time, even if they never saw Serbia/Russia not even from pictures..). Well, of course i never revealed my pro-SLAV feelings to them cause i would be found shot dead sooner or later. You have to take this into account. Canaris, Karta, Kastor, Patrinos, *ALL OF THEM* regardless of political affiliation, ALL OF THEM were ANTI-SLAV!!!!! Look at how this piece of american fart "Canaris" has downgraded EVERYTHING SERBS have done, post 1804.... EVERYTHING... Regardless that (before communism or after, or during) Serbs have built 1000 times more engineering and sciences than any greek ever... STILL this prostitute Canaris would s**t on Serbs, and totally useless anti-serb zombies (like you) would just sit idle, and praise greko-serbian friendship... and praise anti-SLAV anti-GREEK albanian trash instead... You start to see ... the big picture my little serb-wannabe Canadian? Well, one of my friends, a TOTAL nationalist Greek, i mean patriot to the BONE..., great intellectual and also very educated..( i would join him if he was for BALKAN unity and PRO-SLAV stance, if he showed RESPECT for SLavs, which he doesn't, btw), well he almost kicked a XA high-ranking member butt.... Why??? He just can't stand their monkey , turbo-mafia ways.... Its like having Zemun Clan, portraying as the biggest Serbs around... Nooooo.. No Tesla, no Pupin, no Mileva Maric, no Stefan Sindjelic, no .... not a musician, a writer, a poet... only ZEMUN CLAN and their stupid manners? Imagine that someone (foreigner) would want a Serbia full of Zemun Clan... would you like that?? Now, if hardcore nationalists despise XA, it is more than obvious that this party is 100% a WESTERN SAXON GERMAN ALBANIAN TURKISH ISRAEL HOAX!!! (as the recent double murders suggests)... You are too young my friend Uz-Lazar... too young and stupid to know anything...
