A first win against the blackmail of the global financial mafia in Greece

globinfo freexchange

From ZH:

Greek PM fails to get enough votes to elect President:

“As a reminder, this is the first of three votes, in which the candidate needs 200 votes. ND and PASOK have together 155 seats in the Parliament, and they expected to win some votes from independent MPs and possibly also some votes from Independent Greeks and Democratic Left MPs. According to Greek media, the government expects to win a total of 162-165 votes for Dimas in the first round. The final vote: 160 For, 135 Against, and 5 Abstain. This is a problem because the whisper number was around 170 for the 3rd round vote to be even remotely close.”

“Up next is the second round vote when the threshold once again is 200, which will take place on December 23, with the vote limit dropping to only 180 votes in the third and last round of voting on December 29. In other words, Samaras is a crucial 20 votes short of getting his candidate pushed through in 2 weeks, after which follows a messy election that according to recent polls may easily be won by left-wing Syriza and its anti-bailout leader, Samaras.”

“Eight Golden Dawn MPs, currently in custody pending trial, will be taken to the Parliament and participate in the voting. Should the Parliament fail to elect Greece’s next President, the Parliament dissolves and snap elections are due. Pressure to MPs to vote in favor of Dimas has reached unbelievable dimensions with national and international mainstream media to warn of “an economic and political turmoil” should the country go to early elections. Why are they afraid of the snap polls? Oh, because chances are big that left-wing SYRIZA wins the elections and attempts some radical changes in the oh-so-successful loan and austerity agreements with the country’s lenders, the Troika.”


What's at stake:

The mobilization by the global financial mafia this time will be more intense, as its representatives know that a potential Leftist government in Greece who may strongly resist against the austerity policies, could trigger an "uncontrolled" domino rise of the Leftist powers in Europe, who will fight against the neoliberal agenda. Make no mistake, the war will be hard. But there is no alternative. Either the European people will choose to fight determined and united, or, will be surrendered to the plutocrats who will bring the new Dark Ages. The "Battle of Greece" will be decisive ...

    The Idea that an " uncontrolled rise in leftist regimes" is a nightmare spectacle to the banksters is a farce. First thing there has not been an Uncontrolled rise of the left in all human history The nearest thing to it was Maoist China and that was a splendid example of how the "uncontrolled" left could be isolated and marginalized by the Banksters In fact if you look at China verse India until the late eighties,all the communists did was to assured there own people were royally screwed over for forty years thus they took themselves out of the demand for world resources and let the rest of the world prosper while they stagnated.
    In fact there has been no greater instrument for the oppression of Human beings in the entire history of the world than the communist governments that were supposedly created to "liberate" them..
    Syriza and Tsiparis are in an no win situation. If they win the election they cannot demand more concessions because the bond markets would desert them if they were given any. But the only other alternative to complete submission to the troika is to default leave the Euro and devalue, something that will cause massive upheaval all over Europe
    Tsiparis is really just a pretty face for the leftist dreamers to rally around. The Banksters are not going to turn this image into reality by making any concessions. The only reason Samaris is making any effort at all to win is because of Golden Dawn, which is the specter that all the Greek Politicians fear.. For the GD Will default and WILL bring back the Drachma which WILL be allowed to find its own level. Not only that but they WILL nationalize the infrastructure that Samaris has been peddling to the banksters at fire sale prices.
    But what really scares the Bankster is when Spain Portugal Italy and Ireland see what GD did in Greece they will follow suit and let the entire house of cards that is the EU collapse along with the southern part.

      First, learn to separate what we mean by the concept Left from Communism because it's not the same think. Further, you should separate Soviet Communism from Chinese Communism from theoretical Communism and from the concept of the Left. Then we can discuss again.

Stephen Hawking confirms: The problem is Capitalism, not robots!

globinfo freexchange According to world famous physicist Stephen Hawking, the rising use of automated machines may mean the end of human rights – not just jobs. But he’s not talking about robots with artificial intelligence taking over the world, he’s talking about the current capitalist political system and its major players. On Reddit, Hawking said that the economic gap between the rich and the poor will continue to grow as more jobs are automated by machines, and the owners of said machines hoard them to create more wealth for themselves. The insatiable thirst for capitalist accumulation bestowed upon humans by years of lies and terrible economic policy has affected technology in such a way that one of its major goals has become to replace human jobs. If we do not take this warning seriously, we may face unfathomable corporate domination. If we let the same people who buy and sell our political system and resources maintain control of automated technology, the...

The dominant elite ready to break the "social contract"

Hyper-automation will allow the super-rich to “get rid” of the rest by system failure Since the French revolution and the new form of the urban states-democracies, the ruling class had to make the so-called "social contract" with the majority. From the moment that the dominant urban class took the power from feudalism and monarchy, should had to find a way to protect the means of production and the labor force. Therefore, the ethnic consciousness in each state served to bound the majority in order to shape national armies to protect the ruling class interests. In exchange, the ruling urban class had given the so-called social state, labor rights, etc., through the nation-state as a carrier and guarantor for all these benefits for the middle and lower classes. Since then, there have been a lot of battles and the majority managed to conquer some benefits. At the start of 20th century, the technology progress had brought the mass production. Western s...

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...

Iran could be the US’s Boer war: a hollow victory that marks the beginning of the end of empire

US leaders anticipated a walkover. Now they’re embroiled in a conflict that could hasten the end of US economic dominance  by Larry Elliott   Nobody gave the Boers a prayer when the war in South Africa began in 1899. It was farmers ranged against the might of the British empire, and the expectation was that resistance would quickly crumble. Eventually, might did prevail. Britain won the Boer war, but it was a hollow victory that took the best part of three years to achieve and came at a high cost. The blow to British prestige – coming at a time when its global hegemony was under threat from fast-growing countries such as the US – was severe. Far from highlighting the extent of Britain’s power, it exposed its limitations. A century and a quarter later, the US risks being embroiled in its equivalent of the Boer war. What should have been a walkover threatens to become a prolonged conflict. The Iranians are using guerrilla tactics, just as the Boers did, with much success. There ...

Billionaires are social distancing in super yachts as tens of millions lose jobs

Everyday, it becomes clearer: the COVID-19 pandemic is hitting poor, working, and marginalized communities the hardest. Millions of workers – especially low-wage retail, food service, hospitality, and care workers – have faced the terrible choice daily between going to work and risking their health, or staying home and risking their paychecks. Many other workers don’t even have that choice, with around 30 million people in the US filing for unemployment in the past six weeks. But billionaires don’t face these same problems. As tens of millions have lost their jobs over the past two months, billionaire wealth soared by a whopping $282 billion between March 18 and April 10, according to a new study from the Institute for Policy Studies.  And while finding enough space to wait out the pandemic is something many struggle with, billionaires have been escaping to their second (or third, or fourth) homes to ride it out in luxury – all while they position themselves to ...

Self-management societies vs anarcho-capitalism: The new global war of ideologies?

by system failure The last global economic crisis has brought the Left as well as the extreme nationalism in the front line. The rise of the Left in Greece and elsewhere came as an answer to the corrosion of the European Socialism and its absorption from neoliberalism. Current government coalition in Greece consisting from the two parties in power for the last 40 years, the right-wing, now neoliberal, party Nea Dimokratia and the "Socialist" party PASOK, is the best proof of this fact. Despite the fact that the rise of the Left and extreme nationalism creates a new front of intense ideological conflict, this is not something which prevents the dissolving of the old ideological lines. Therefore, we are now in a period where the old ideological lines are blurring, and various conflicts cannot prevent this fact. This is something which has to do mainly with the fail of the Left to construct a new autonomous language relieved from capitalistic terms, and the full capitu...
