Greece: The system ready for war to confront the Leftist "threat"

by system failure

As recent polls in Greece give a clear lead for the main Leftist party, SYRIZA, (the latest one by 11% from Samaras' New Democracy - http://www.greeknewsonline.com/syriza-leads-nd-by-11-in-polls/), the local banking-media dictatorship sees that there is no chance for a formation of any new government without the participation of the Left.

It seems that the main systemic powers inside and outside Greece are mobilized, fearing the worst scenario for them, which is an autonomous government of the Left in possible national elections.

Inside Greece, the system is using the political parties River and PASOK, which are promoted as representatives of the Center-Left political space. Recent statements from River and PASOK members show that their goal is to join a potential Leftist government, hoping that it will not be able to collect the necessary votes to be autonomous. The "Socialist" party, PASOK, is probably ready to abandon the government coalition and try to "clean" its name, by changing leadership.

Some moves like the one of the "voluntary" taxation for the shipowners (http://www.tvxs.gr/news/ellada/eidiki-forologisi-gia-efoplistes-kai-me-nomo), reveal that the government does not believe that can fix the negative climate against it and there is no point to persuade about its good intentions. They also show that the ruling class tries to grab whatever it can, as sees that its neoliberal government-puppet start to collapse.

Outside the borders, the new "gift" from Draghi to the Greek banks (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-10-01/germany-throws-over-draghi-plan-buy-greek-junk) is quite indicative. Draghi attempts to save the bankers in front of the real "threat" of a Leftist government in Greece. The bankers continue to accumulate capital back to the ECB while the real economy collapses under the lack of liquidity.

Systemic media presented this move as completely positive for the Greek economy, as expected, with cliches like "the economy will take a deep breath through further liquidity". In reality, of course, this move is only an extension of the previous one (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/09/the-emperor-spoken-again.html) by the "emperor" to provide even cheaper money to the banks.

During the next months, we should expect a propaganda culmination by the banking-media dictatorship in Greece, with the help, as usual, of the European neoliberal economic empire mechanisms. The main goal will be to prevent an autonomous government of the Left, which could cause a domino effect in Europe, interrupting the expansion of the Greek experiment.

We should also expect a "tighter approach" of the Left by the systemic establishment which will try to drag it inside its frame of interests. The purpose of this approach will be to force the Left to compromise, for a start, so that the current system to maintain its power.

Netanyahu commits 'a bloodbath in Gaza' to save himself

Middle East Eye   At least 400 people have been killed after a surprise Israeli attack on Gaza in the early hours of Tuesday. Israel’s government vows to continue escalating these military attacks, saying it’s in response to Hamas’ refusal to extend the ceasefire, which has been in place since January. But is this the real reason for this morning’s attack? Or is there a much more cynical explanation - one tied to the political fate of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu?   The Big Picture Podcast speaks to Daniel Levy, the president of the US/Middle East Project and a former Israeli peace negotiator. 

Israel Has Always ‘Depended on Genocide’ to Colonize Palestine

BreakThrough News   Rania Khalek and Eugene Puryear discuss Israel’s resumption of its genocidal war on Palestinians in Gaza, launched just a day before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was set to face his corruption trial. Israel, backed by a green light from Trump, intensified the bombing of Gaza, began a ground invasion, and killed over 500 Palestinians within 48 hours while enforcing a total blockade of Gaza. Eugene states that Israel never wanted to go through with the ceasefire because “the Israeli project can’t succeed unless it totally ethnically cleanses the territories it claims– and kills anyone in the way.” Recognizing that they may “not get the chance again,” they are putting their foot on the accelerator.” 

Betar: the Far-Right Hate Group Helping Trump Deport Israel’s Critics

by Alan Macleod  Part 1 A far-right, pro-Israel group with a history of support for terror and genocide is working closely with the Trump administration, preparing dossiers on thousands of pro-Palestine figures it wants deported from the United States. Betar U.S. is known to have had several meetings with senior government officials and has claimed credit for the arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a leader of the nationwide anti-genocide student demonstrations that began at Columbia University last year. Ross Glick, the group’s executive director until last month, noted that he met with a diverse set of influential lawmakers, including Democratic senator John Fetterman and aides to the Republican senators Ted Cruz and James Lankford, and that all supported Betar U.S.’ campaign to rid the country of thousands of “terror supporters.” Shortly after Glick’s trip to Washington, D.C., Trump signed an executive order titled “Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism” that promises ...

Trump’s ISRAEL FIRST Flip-Flop On Attacking Yemen!

The Jimmy Dore Show   President Trump has taken decisive military action in Yemen, ordering airstrikes against Iran-backed Houthi rebels on March 15, 2025. This action represents a significant flip-flop from when, as a presidential candidate, Trump railed against the Biden administration for bombing the Houthis instead of talking to them. Jimmy Dore discusses the strikes, the largest U.S. military operation in the Middle East since Trump took office and which came after a period of relative quiet in the region.
