Greece: Government's tricks to escape from difficult situation

globinfo freexchange

After the earthquake in the political scene of Greece with the case of the latest bribery attempt of an opposition MP (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/12/greece-another-opposition-mp-claimed.html), Samaras made a last attempt to avoid national elections soon:

Arguing that 'elections must not happen' now, he called for MPs to elect a new president of the republic and come together for the country to achieve an agreement over a restructuring of the country’s debt and the future of Greece’s financing as well as begin the process of constitutional reform. As concessions to opposition opposition he said he would be willing to broaden the makeup of the government and dissolve parliament for early elections to be held by the end of 2015.”

In his address, the prime minister referred to the accusations of attempts to bribe MPs, saying that the country 'cannot continue the orgy of unfounded and despicable accusations' and stated that ‘elections must not happen’ immediately.”

The PM went on to argue that to hold elections now would be dangerous for the country given the uncertainty over the future of Greece’s financing following the expiration of the Memorandum agreement at the end of February. Similarly he stated that elections now would postpone the process of constitutional reform for many years.”


Meanwhile, SYRIZA leader, Alexis Tsipras, in his speech from Alexandroupoli referred to the latest bribery scandal and stated among other things:

This is the sinner triangle that bankrupted the country. On the first vertex stands a bankrupted political system of New Democracy and PASOK. On the other, the bankrupted banks that have been bailed-out with taxpayers' money and were given back to those who bankrupted them. On the third, the bankrupted, totally unreliable media. This is the center that ruled for 40 years. It sets up parties. Dissolves parties. It breaks parties and conducts auctions of consciousnesses.”


As the political scene in Greece has been set on fire and national elections appear to be unavoidable, we are getting closer to the culmination of the class war: http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/12/europe-get-ready-for-war.html

globinfo freexchange Δανειστήκαμε αυτή τη φράση από ένα παλιό κομμάτι της Ελληνικής ροκ μπάντας "Τρύπες", για να περιγράψουμε με λίγα λόγια αυτό που φαίνεται να έχει πάθει η Ελληνική κοινωνία.  Πώς είναι δυνατόν μια ολόκληρη κοινωνία να έχει ξεχάσει ποιοι τη χρεοκόπησαν; Ποιοι έστησαν το άθλιο σύστημα των κρατικοδίαιτων 'ημέτερων' και της οικογενειοκρατίας; Ποιοι έσωσαν τις τράπεζες με πακτωλό δισεκατομμυρίων σε βάρος της μεσαίας τάξης; Ποιοι έκαναν τη μίζα και το ρουσφέτι επάγγελμα; Πώς είναι δυνατόν αυτή η κοινωνία να ετοιμάζεται να ξαναφέρει στην εξουσία ένα κομμάτι αυτού του άθλιου πολιτικού κατεστημένου, με την επιστροφή μάλιστα του αμετανόητα νεοφιλελεύθερου Κυριάκου Μητσοτάκη και της ομάδας του;   Η απόγνωση που έφεραν εννέα χρόνια βάρβαρων νεοφιλελεύθερων πολιτικών και σκληρής λιτότητας και που ανάγκασε τη χώρα να διαβεί τον εφιαλτικό μονόδρομο της μόνιμης χρεοκοπίας, πρέπει να έπαιξε σημαντικό ρόλο.  Διότι ως γνωστόν, η απελπισία...

Norman Finkelstein & Jeremy Corbyn: THE INTERVIEW ISRAEL WANT TO BAN

Double Down News In a powerful and deeply personal conversation, political scientist Dr. Norman Finkelstein sits down with MP and former UK Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn to analyse the ongoing crisis in Gaza, Western diplomatic inaction, and the media's framing of the conflict. From evaluating ICJ proceedings to dismantling mainstream media "gatekeeper" tactics, Finkelstein and Corbyn provide an unsparing critique of current geopolitical realities and explain why Gaza has become a defining moral touchstone for a new generation. Beyond foreign policy, the pair explore the broader societal shifts shaping world politics today. Drawing on four decades of political activism, they compare today's student movement to historical anti-Apartheid and anti-Vietnam War struggles, while examining the decline of social mobility, the commercialisation of higher education, and the impact of digital media on critical thinking and long-term political engagement.

Ben Gvir, Smotrich TRAPPED In Britain? Israel in PANIC after UK STUNS World

OPTM The United Kingdom has just dropped a political bombshell that has sent shockwaves through the occupation regime. In an unprecedented move, Britain—alongside France, Canada, and nine other nations—has banned all trade in goods produced in illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband accused settler terrorists of carrying out ethnic cleansing, declaring that the UK would ban imports of all settlement goods and restrict services including financing and construction. The reaction from the occupation's far-right ministers has been nothing short of hysterical. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for the immediate expulsion of the British ambassador, while National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir—in a fit of delusional whataboutism—demanded that the occupation government recognize Argentine sovereignty over the Falkland Islands and impose sanctions on Britain. Ben Gvir and Smotrich are trapped, and they know it. This is the colonial master fina...
