Latest from the Greek front : A nightmare scenario for Greece and Europe

globinfo freexchange

There are many scenarios circulated lately, concerning the political situation in Greece. Here is another "extreme conspiracy scenario", briefly:

Samaras will not manage to find the 180 MPs required for the third round of the presidential election (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/12/a-first-win-against-global-financial.html), and the pre-elections period starts in Greece. In the leading government coalition party, New Democracy, many question Samaras, force him to resign and throw him from the leadership of the party to elect Dora Bakoyannis* for the leadership of New Democracy. She appears with a much more populist profile and declares that she will not follow Samaras' policy while will negotiate hard with the troika lenders.

Combined with the classic propaganda of destruction which will be launched to the maximum point by the known centers inside Greece and abroad, that is, the country will suffer from total destruction in case of a Leftist government in power, New Democracy manage to win again marginally in the new national elections.

The neo-nazi party, Golden Dawn, having retained or increased its power due to its stance not to vote for Dimas, finally participates in a government by the New Democracy which, additionally, retains the advantage of the 50 bonus seats**. Golden Dawn will have the necessary alibi since "traitor" Samaras is no longer in the leadership, stating that it is obliged to support New Democracy (which has many MPs from the far-Right political spectrum), in order to protect the country from the Leftist "threat" and total destruction.

Still, however, this is not enough for New Democracy to form a new government, therefore, other neoliberal systemic parties like River and PASOK (or others), will rush to contribute “for the sake of the country”. The neoliberal dictatorship has now all the time to implement the last stage of the experiment, to be expanded throughout Europe.

Meanwhile, the Greek PM during his speech on Saturday at the governmental propaganda tool, NERIT, gave the signal for a new round of the propaganda of fear. (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-12-27/greek-prime-minister-its-best-country-do-away-democracy) During previous speech “Samaras said characteristically that 'We shed blood to take the word `Grexit' away from the mouth of foreigners, and Syriza is bringing this word back to their mouths,'.” (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/12/europe-get-ready-for-war.html)

* Dora Bakoyannis is the daughter of Constantine Mitsotakis, one of the oldest members of New Democracy. In Greece, his conflict with current PM, Antonis Samaras, is well known, as Samaras was the cause of the fall of New Democracy from power, back when Mitsotakis was the Greek PM:

"The heightened public irritation over the Macedonia issue caused several ND parliament members, led by Antonis Samaras, to withdraw their support from Mitsotakis's government and form a new political party, Political Spring (Politiki Anoiksi). Mitsotakis's government had already restored the election system back to its original form, which allowed Papandreou's PASOK to obtain clear parliamentary majority after winning the premature 1993 elections and return to office. Mitsotakis then resigned as ND leader, although he remained the party's honorary chairman." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstantinos_Mitsotakis)

**... the Deputy Prime Minister and leader of PASOK, Evangelos Venizelos, made a new request to Samaras, asking for the abolishment of the current electoral law, which was voted in the past by his party and gives 50 bonus seats in the parliament to the first party in national elections, even in case that wins the elections by one vote!” (http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/09/a-new-attempt-to-domesticate-left-in.html)

    1. Not at all. The Social Democrats (PASOK party in Greece) are just as neoliberal as the others.

    2. If Syriza choose to remain in the E.U and Eurozone then they are neo-liberal.

  3. Thanks, this needs to be written. My fear is around To Potami which I am afraid was conjured up to replace PASOK if need be.

    1. Yes. Potami is clearly a creation by the banking-media dictatorship to attract voters from the Left and prevent an autonomous Leftist government.

      Delete
  4. I add:
    On the face of it GD will not join Dora, a moderate' pro-EU / EZ neo-liberal since they are anti EU, anti euro. Samaras was their man, and he was forced to ditch them by the US / AIPAC.
    The burning question is who would join a SYRIZA coalition government?

Capitalism & Genocide - Yanis Varoufakis Speech at the Gaza Tribunal, 23rd October 2025, Istanbul

Yanis Varoufakis   On 23rd October, Yanis Varoufakis testified in front of the Jury of Conscience in the context of the Gaza Tribunal. His speech focused on the economic forces underpinning the genocide of the Palestinian people. In particular, he spoke on the manner in which capitalist dynamics have historically fuelled the white settler colonial project and, more recently, how the accumulation of a new form of capital - which he calls cloud capital - has accelerated, deepened and amplified the economic forces powering and propelling the machinery of genocide.

Trump Welcomes Syrian Leader & “REFORMED” TERRORIST To White House!

The Jimmy Dore Show   President Donald Trump is planning a White House welcome for Syria’s new president, former al-Qaeda in Iraq leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who was installed after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad. Jimmy Dore argues that the U.S. and its allies, including Israel, have long funded extremist groups such as ISIS and al-Qaeda to serve foreign policy interests in the Middle East, so the embrace of al-Sharaa makes sense, even if it might confuse anyone who thought we took seriously the so-called “War on Terror.” He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger contrast Trump’s willingness to meet with alleged terrorists to his refusal to engage in dialogue with leaders like Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, accusing U.S. policy of hypocrisy and imperialism.  

Will Mamdani manage to liberate New York from brutal neoliberalism?

globinfo freexchange    Fifty years ago, New York City was on the verge of collapse . The politicians who run the city had borrowed more and more money from the banks to pay for its growing services and welfare. But in the early 70s, the middle classes fled from the city and the taxes they paid disappeared with them. So, the banks lent the city even more. But then, they began to worry about the size of the growing debt and whether the city would ever be able to pay it back. And then, one day in 1975, the banks just stopped.   The city held its regular meeting to issue bonds in return for the loans, overseen by the city's financial controller. The banks were supposed to turn up at 11 a.m., but it soon became clear that none of them were going to appear. The meeting was rescheduled for 2 p.m. and the banks promised they would turn up. What happened that day in New York, marked a radical shift in power. The banks insisted that in order to protect their loans, they sho...

Zionists’ LONG HISTORY Of False Flags & STAGED Attacks!

The Jimmy Dore Show   In recent years several alleged anti-Semitic incidents, including graffiti and vandalism, were later revealed to have been staged or “false flag” operations carried out by Jewish perpetrators to create sympathy or shift the public narrative in Israel’s favor. Jimmy Dore presents investigations that revealed hoaxes and uses them to argue that media and political institutions exploit victimhood to silence criticism of Israel. He then expands the discussion to accuse Israeli and Zionist figures of deceit in global politics and misinformation about Gaza. It ends with commentary that the term “anti‑Semitic” has lost meaning due to its politicization and misuse.

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...

Priceless: Zelensky told the truth about the war in Ukraine at its beginning!

globinfo freexchange    How did this escape the radars of mainstream media? Well, the answer is obvious, yet still, it is astonishing the fact that already back in 2022, at the beginning of the war in Ukraine, one of the major outlets of Western imperialism, actually translated this part of the interview with West's puppet, Volodymyr Zelensky. At 12:28 of the video, Zelensky starts spelling the truth about the real reason behind the war in Ukraine!    Zelensky admits:                            There are those in the West who don't mind a long war because it would mean exhausting Russia, even if this means the demise of Ukraine and the cost of Ukrainian lives. This is definitely in the interest of some countries. For other countries, it would be better if the war ended quickly because Russia's market is big one that their economies are su...
