Adonis Georgiadis and his bookshop after a 2007 attack.

Athens, Greece - Two right-wing bookstores were attacked and firebombed by groups of hooded youths believed to be anarchists. One of the shops is owned by the right-wing LAOS party deputy Adonis Georgiadis. The same business has been targeted by anarchists numerous times in the past. Both attacks took place Thursday while employees were present, but the workers were hurried out before the fires started. Each location suffered extensive damage, and no people were injured.
