1. Is to justify what might happen next?
Wholesale slaughter of protesters?

5. Partly, perhaps

From what I understand, real activists attack chosen targets (police, banks, big multinational corporations), while police and their fascist allies - those on tape could be either, police in disguise or fascist militants from Golden Dawn organization who work together with cops - vandalize small local shops of ordinary people, who are part of the community that protesters defend, to make the protesters look back and to present an image of random vandalism. The big guys against the small people, as allways.

What was really worrying is that the state has by decree lifted the asylum from Polytechnical University and a real massacre may be in planning against students occupying and defending it and using it as their base. Just like in the days of Junta. That would create a REALLY BIG reaction from Greek people, which in turn would "justify" marshal law. Then it would get really ugly because somehow I don't think Greek people and especially youth are not going to back down.
