“I appreciate that the Assemblywoman is under tremendous pressure to support a Greek national but this is a slap in the face of what is right and moral. He was not a martyr or a freedom fighter. Katsifas was a terrorist. In America we don’t celebrate terrorists – especially not with official government proclamations. It’s just wrong.”
So far, Simotas has refused to say why she is committed to standing by Katsifas even in the face of overwhelming evidence of past crimes and support of Greece’s far right nationalist movement.
Earlier this year, a group of concerned New Yorkers protested outside of the Federation of Associated Laconian Societies luncheon celebrating Katsifas where Simotas’ proclamation took center stage. During the peaceful protest, demonstrators were harassed with anti-Albanian slurs and nazi salutes.
The group plans to launch additional protests outside of both Assemblywoman Simotas’ and Nicole Malliotakis’ office in the weeks ahead to encourage them to do the right thing.
The group demands that the elected officials representing the area the Federation of Associated Laconian Societies operates, Congressman Max Rose, Senator Andrew Gounardes, City Councilman Justin Brannan and Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis denounce its actions of honoring a terrorist and request they also call on their colleague Assemblywoman Aravella Simotas to rescind support of Konstantinos Katsifas.

A nation that glorifies a terrorist blinded with ethnic hate who shoots the police with assault weapons, also trying to carry out separatist agendas, should not be a hero in another country. Albanians and Greeks have no choice but to live together and the only thing they can pick is how they will live together , in peace and mutual respect or glorifying such terrorists who make the gap between these nations even bigger. To break it down, a Canadian comes to US and shoots the cops. What would be the appropriate response in this case?
