Greece: when neoliberal dictatorship threatens with a military dictatorship!

by system failure

Everything goes according to plan. The systemic establishment perfectly exploited the murder of Pavlos Fyssas by neo-nazis in Greece, shortly before the re-election of Merkel in Germany.

What the European part of the global neoliberal dictatorship achieved:

First, managed to disorientate citizens once again, Greeks and Europeans, from the new measures in which Merkel insists, behind which are the big bankers and big capital, not only to complete the neoliberal experiment in Greece, but also, to expand it across Europe, even in Germany.

Second, as Golden Dawn was rising dangerously, pulled back the reins of the organization which appeared to be running out of control. But as much as was needed to continue playing the role of the “bloody monster” in case of a new unexpected rise of the Left, and, to fill the vote tank of the far Right part of the neoliberal Right, from the most moderate voters of Golden Dawn, as shown by recent polls which were organized, as always, by the systemic establishment.

Third, promoted the most horrible side of the "monster", threatening even with a military dictatorship. After the calling of the organization "Community of Special Forces Reserves" for resignation of the government and people-army collaboration, which was played on the central news of the mainstream media, justice was mobilized through an urgent meeting of the Supreme Court, in order the public to be convinced for the seriousness of the situation.

Then, Golden Dawn leader, Nikos Michaloliakos, added another threat through its recent statement: "... whether the country enter into a circle of destabilization, it will not be Golden Dawn's fault, but a fault from those who demonize and fight against Golden Dawn with such a dirty and illegal manner ... ". The "blunder" of Michaloliakos is that he talked about an impending destabilization of the country, which means that he accepts that the country is currently enjoying the stability offered by the systemic establishment, which he and the Golden Dawn generally, accuse continuously using a specific rhetoric. Therefore, Michaloliakos through its own words, proves that Golden Dawn is a tool that the system uses when is threatened by a "destabilization".

Despite the humorous comments that flooded twitter, on rumors of a coup d'etat due to the "calling" of Greek army reservists this Saturday, the threat is real and the message is clear: either you will accept our neoliberal dictatorship with the mask of a pseudo-democracy and what this means (dissolving welfare state, dissolving labor rights, new cuts in wages and pensions, massive lay-offs and privatizations), or, you will get a military one, with the neo-nazis acting uncontrolled among you!

The mainstream media once again played their role perfectly. While the neo-nazi "monster" has been grown by the same media through terror news reports, distorted pictures and videos and plenty of exaggerations, the "big bosses" ordered them to pull back the reins of the "monster" they released.

But they should not overdo it because the neoliberal dictatorship still needs the "monster." Among the hypocritical news reports - allegations against Golden Dawn, plenty of pictures and information of the type "how the Golden Dawn members are trained", "what they wear", "how they parade" are inserted, or even, newscasters indirectly questioning whether the killer of Fyssas was truly a Golden Dawn member. In fact, the latest days Golden Dawn has been advertised by the mainstream media more than anything else, although some of its members supported that they have been excluded by the same media!

Therefore, the message is clear: either you will accept neoliberal dictatorship, or, you will get a military one!

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

How Western media helped build and then protect the Israeli narrative that allowed a genocide to continue

globinfo freexchange    For two years, Palestinians in Gaza have been killed in 4K on all of our screens. And for those same two years, many of the Western media institutions meant to hold power to account chose silence, distortion and doubt. Newsrooms repeated Israel's allegations with no pushback, ignored the evidence of genocide even as it played out live. This isn't a story about bias or mistakes. It's a story about how Western media helped build and then protect the Israeli narrative that allowed a genocide to continue.  So, how many Palestinian lives have been lost because the world's news outlets chose to repeat Israel's narrative instead of questioning it?    From the earliest days following October 7th, Israel's talking points were treated as fact. The now disproven claims of 40 beheaded babies and the story that Hamas used Palestinian civilians as human shields revived with every bombing of a hospital or school despite the mountain of evidence that it...
