The global financial mafia fully exposed through Greece

by system failure

While everyone was hoping for a deal between Greece and the creditors, the usual suspect, IMF, decided to undermine the negotiations again. The representatives of the global financial mafia had no choice this time but to expose themselves totally, dissolving the last pretexts.

Now, it is more than obvious that the only thing they care about is to get rid of the Leftist government in Greece, as soon as possible. From the first moment, when Tsipras presented equivalent measures to meet the fiscal targets, the propaganda inside and outside Greece was launched in full force. The mainstream media tried to present the measures as being worse than those proposed by the previous Samaras administration, in order to deconstruct Tsipras administration in front of the Greek voters.

This time, IMF took the role of the "bad cop" and returned to its initial positions, demanding further cuts in pensions and wages. IMF claimed that the increase in taxation for big businesses would lead to further recession. In reality the fund and the European institutions want to protect big businesses and multinationals, eliminating at the same time the small-medium business sector.

Remarkably, the latest development could be considered another tactical win by the Greek government. The Greek officials showed that they are willing to make compromises, bringing equivalent measures on the table. While some moderate European officials said that this could be a start for a new deal, IMF turned 180 degrees and blew up the approach. The reason is simple: according to the Greek proposals, the weight of the taxation would have been transferred to big businesses, instead of the usual victims which are the pensioners and the workers, and this is not good for the interests that the IMF serves.

Moreover, the Greek proposals would have set in danger the Greek experiment because they were rejecting further cuts and further dissolution of labor rights. This is certainly quite far from the creditors' plans.

Tsipras didn't miss the chance and said that "The non-acceptance of equivalent measures is unprecedented. Neither in Ireland nor in Portugal. Nowhere! This strange stance may be due to two reasons. Either they do not want an agreement or they serve specific interests in Greece," (fa.ev/tsipras-either-they-do-not-want), exposing IMF and the rest of the "institutions".

Now the puzzle is completed. Everything is clear. This is a class war, as we mentioned many times in this blog: The current Greek government should be removed even without pretexts through this financial fascism because it threatens plutocrats' plans. Podemos follow in Spain and they are afraid that they may lose the control of Europe. European people should be prepared for the war.

A historical turning point has just occurred ... and it is not the Trump assassination attempt

globinfo freexchange   The biggest crime of our century, that is, the genocide of Palestinians by the Zionists has been almost forgotten. And while everyone is distracted by the war in Ukraine and the assassination attempt against Donald Trump, a development of historic proportions took place. The development either escaped from the corporate media radars in the West, or, deliberately ignored.   The integration of Russia's and India's payment systems marks the definite rejection of the Western SWIFT system, dominated by the US dollar, and the complete detachment of BRICS from this system.   As Kitco News reported recently:   The trend of de-dollarization continues to gain traction despite many analysts saying the threat is overblown as India and Russia have announced a new partnership that will see their respective payment systems – India’s RuPay and Russia’s MIR – integrated to allow for seamless cross-border transactions without the need for U.S. dollars.  The partner

Exposed: How Biden & Ukraine’s Fascists Worked Together to Block Peace with Russia

BreakThrough News   Newly released treaty negotiation documents show that Ukraine and Russia were very close to ending the war—more than two years ago, in April 2022. But U.S. imperialists and NATO have worked with and strengthened the right-wing in Ukraine to achieve their long-term goals in the region, including endless war, no matter how many people die. Brian Becker is joined by Eugene Puryear, co-host of The Freedom Side , to discuss the newly revealed documents showing how the Ukraine war nearly ended two years ago but were sabotaged by the intervention of the White House and the Ukrainian far-right. They discuss how Ukraine’s economy has been totally mortgaged to U.S. and European interests.

Israeli documents show expansive government effort to shape US discourse around Gaza war

As the Gaza war rages, Israeli funds target US college campuses and push to redefine antisemitism in US law   by Lee Fang and Jack Poulson   Part 3 - Substantial Israeli government involvement in American politics   Haaretz and the New York Times recently revealed that Chikli’s ministry had tapped a public relations firm to secretly pressure American lawmakers. The firm used hundreds of fake accounts posting pro-Israel or anti-Muslim content on X (formerly Twitter), Facebook and Instagram. (The diaspora affairs ministry denied involvement in the campaign, which reportedly provided about $2m to an Israeli firm for the social media posts.) But that effort is only one of many such campaigns coordinated by the ministry, which has received limited news coverage. The ministry of diaspora affairs and its partners compile weekly reports based on tips from pro-Israel US student groups, some of which receive funding from Israeli government sources . For example, Hillel International, a co-foun

The time has come for liberal capitalists to test their favorite puppet against Trump

Genocide Joe to be replaced by Kamala Harris   globinfo freexchange   Genocide Joe was originally the convenient pick of the liberal capitalists and his election was just a victorious battle for them in the ongoing capitalist civil war . Yet, everybody knew (and it was more than obvious), that old-Joe has now become a lost case for the corporate Democrats and their liberal wealthy donors.   After four years, the time has come for the liberal capitalists to test Kamala Harris against Trump.  The timing couldn't be more convenient. Especially after the Trump assassination attempt, it was certain that Genocide Joe was finished. The greatest demagogue and popular manipulator wouldn't let the opportunity go wasted. From the first moment, he took advantage of the incident and boosted his image as a political "anti-establishment" hero in the eyes of the conservative Americans. And after Biden's disastrous performances in various debates and public appearances, everyone k

Israeli documents show expansive government effort to shape US discourse around Gaza war

As the Gaza war rages, Israeli funds target US college campuses and push to redefine antisemitism in US law   by Lee Fang and Jack Poulson   Part 1 - Redefining antisemitism   Last November, just weeks into the war in Gaza, Amichai Chikli, a brash, 42-year-old Likud minister in the Israeli government, was called into the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, to brief lawmakers on what could be done about rising anti-war protests from young people across the United States, especially at elite universities. “ I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again now, that I think we should, especially in the United States, be on the offensive,” argued Chikli. Chikli has since led a targeted push to counter critics of Israel. The Guardian has uncovered evidence showing how Israel has relaunched a controversial entity as part of a broader public relations campaign to target US college campuses and redefine antisemitism in US law. Seconds after a smoke alarm subsided during the hearing, Chikli assured the l
