Greece: Nowhere between “allies”

Washington probably thinks that current Greek government is ready to fall

by system failure

It is so hard someone to believe this. It's another good indication of what Greece has become, one more time, to the powers that always determined its destiny. Barack Obama announced the successful destruction of Syrian chemicals but didn't bother to mention Greece, even among "allies":

US President Obama said that his administration was grateful to the joint mission of the United States and its Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) that helped to “rid the Syrian regime of its chemical weapons” in a White House statement, published on Monday.

We also thank our close allies and partners – Denmark, Norway, Italy, Finland, Germany, and the United Kingdom – for their key contributions to this mission, and we appreciate the assistance of Russia and China,” Barack Obama said in the statement.


After all the assistance of the Greek puppet government, concerning the destruction of chemicals, and mostly, its tolerance to the fact that Cape Ray proceeded to the hydrolysis without any observers on board who could certify the successful completion without environmental implications close to Crete's shores, the US president apparently thought that there is no reason to mention a "taken for granted ally":

According to our information, we understand that the Mediterranean is used by the US because the method of hydrolysis on board will be conducted for the first time and will be essentially an experiment. Additionally, scientists admit that they don't know the consequences to the 35 year old ship by the chemical substances. Cape Ray will be accompanied by navy forces from Greece, Turkey and Germany to protect it from a terrorist attack.


During the press conference, Vangelis Pissias, one of the organizers of the mission, criticized Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Evangelos Venizelos, stating that he doesn't know what is going on in his country and he doesn't speak with the American officials who behave like preponderant [over country's decisions]. The mayor of Sfakia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sfakia), Pavlos Polakis, stated that, according to information from the mission members, hydrolysis is taking place just 75-100 miles from Crete's shores.

According to the activists' website (http://destruction-of-chemical-weapons.blogspot.gr/), a coast guard boat was discreetly following the boats of the mission during the first hours of sailing, while subsequently they were under surveillance by a drone and a helicopter.


Not to mention the fact that the Greek government rushed to align with the US sanctions against Russia, paying a high price in such a disaster scenery for the Greek economy (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/08/the-most-faithful-puppets.html).

Yet, Obama thanked his "ostensible" ally, Germany (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/07/who-is-considered-ostensible-ally-by-us.html) and others, even "rivals" like Russia and China for their contribution, but again, Greece was nowhere among them!

Either we should start to believe that Greece is eventually considered an ostensible ally by the US rather than Germany, or that Washington (and Moscow) consider current Greek government ready to fall with no chance to regain power, so, they are waiting for the next one to make their moves.

There is no reason to adopt the first explanation since the Greek government followed faithfully every willing of the US, NATO and European "partners" in various issues (Greek debt problem, Ukraine, Middle East, etc.), therefore, the most probable explanation is the second one.

Zionists pushed Trump into the war with Iran but this was not the primary reason for this catastrophic decision

by system failure     It is widely reported by various analysts that Trump's catastrophic decision to start a war with Iran, came as a result of the pressure from Netanyahu regime and the Zionist lobby in US. While we can't ignore the strong influence of the Zionist factor on Trump and its significant role on dragging him into such a catastrophe, this was probably not the primary reason for the latest US-Iran war.  One has to look first at Venezuela and the unprecedented and rather bizarre operation there to remove Nicolas Maduro from power, in order to understand the deeper reasoning behind such a risky decision by Trump against Iran. The uniqueness of the operation in Venezuela by the US imperialist beast, has to do not only with the blatant violation of international law with almost zero pretexts, but also with the fact that the rest of the Maduro administration was left untouched and permitted to remain in power. This shows that the primary goal of this operation was ...

Israel CAUGHT Spying On Trump & HERE’S WHY!

The Jimmy Dore Show   What does Donald Trump do to stop Netanyahu, or punish Netanyahu, after he openly defies him and after Donald Trump knows that Israel's intelligence services are spying on him? It appears that he has done nothing.

Trump CAVES On Uranium & Ballistic Missiles!

The Jimmy Dore Show   Jimmy Dore and Glenn Greenwald argue that President Trump is engaging in a stark retreat from earlier hardline positions on Iran by signaling acceptance of both Iranian uranium enrichment for civilian energy purposes and allowing Iran to possess conventional ballistic missiles. The two contend that these comments amount to major concessions, with Jimmy describing them as “another big win for Iran” and evidence that the administration has abandoned key objectives it previously promoted. Greenwald cites the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, arguing that Iran has the same right as other signatory nations to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes and notes that previous agreements imposed unusually strict inspections on Iran’s program. The segment emphasizes Trump’s remarks that “it’s a little bit unfair for them not to have some” ballistic missiles and that restrictions on civilian nuclear energy require “a little common sense.”

How Western societies lost their faith in Vision

Why people don't rise up massively today? Why there are no real revolutions? How we tolerate all things that have been imposed to us? These questions come up in people's minds more and more often today in Greece and abroad, due to the economic crisis. Some theories are circulated as an answer, among these, explanations which include, for example, the psychosynthesis of modern Greeks, but the truth is that there is something more fundamental behind this passive behaviour and concerns not only Greece, but the entire Western world. by system failure Prior to the beginning of the 20th century, Friedrich Nietzsche declares God's death and Western world will put all its hopes in science.
