The coup continues in Portugal

The same government which was rejected in the recent elections, will be presented by the center-Right Coelho despite that he has not the majority in the new parliament. The Left and the Socialists are expected to vote against.

The same government which was rejected by the majority of the Portuguese people in the 4th October elections, was presented by the center-Right Pedro Passos Coelho, to the President of Portugal Aníbal Cavaco Silva, despite that he has not the necessary majority to be supported in the new Portuguese parliament.

Maria Luís Albuquerque keeps her position as Minister of State and Finance, while Paulo Portas, the leader of CDS-PP and government partner until now, is being proposed as vice-president of the government.

It should be noted that in ten days, the proposed governmental scheme should receive motion of confidence from the parliament, in which Coelho's party lacks the majority.

At the same time, intense pressure is exercised on the Socialist party which has stated that will vote against, together with the two Leftist parties (Left Bloc and Communist Party).

Coelho calls Socialists in a dialogue by pointing the danger of economic collapse, at the same time when Cavaco Silva has stated that a Leftist government would be harmful for the relations between Portugal and the European Union.

Note that, the center-Right hopes that nine MPs could abandon the Socialist wing, in order to take the majority in the parliament. However, according to various analysts, this is extremely unlikely to be reached.

It is impressive that the same arguments were used by the systemic establishment in Greece, when the Leftist party SYRIZA was threatening the dominance of the two-party system PASOK and New Democracy who were completely connected to the Brussels-Berlin neoliberal agenda.

The mainstream media and various MPs of the establishment were circulating catastrophic scenarios, among them, the breakup of the relations with NATO and European Union and the isolation of Greece.

Finally, the Brussels-Berlin axis managed to defeat Tsipras and get rid of the "dangerous" radicals of his party, as planned. Tsipras was forced to sign a third catastrophic memorandum, according to the neoliberal experiment.

  1. History is full, VERY full, of collapsed nations and civilizations. Unless forced by outsiders is is always the same stuff. Greed, lying, promising, attacking other political entities (usually). It is unlikely to be different because bullcrap history is taught in whatever apparatus the government has set up. I know what I was "taught" in school and the devices set up to inform me of what the liars wanted me to believe. This time it is different. Yes it is. Thermonuclear weapons and vast world population will take care of that.

    Tsipras defeated himself, forced the 3rd memorandum. The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed. All Tsipras had to do was to notice he had won - to accept Schauble's offer, to have a pleasant and permanent departure from the Eurozone, the difficulties of which are almost always grossly exaggerated, the obvious benefits almost always ignored with the greatest obtusity.

    Instead, there was a master-servant dialectic where the servant, terrified by freedom, cried out for further oppression, demanded to become a slave.

Israel is responsible for one of the cruelest genocides in modern history

UN Palestinian Rights Committee   In her address to the Human Rights Council on 3 July 2025, Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, warned of a genocide unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank.    She described the situation as “apocalyptic,” stating that “Israel is responsible for one of the cruelest genocides in modern history.”    With over 200,000 Palestinians reported killed or injured and the real toll “far higher,” she accused Israel of dismantling humanitarian aid in Gaza, replacing it with a “so-called 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation' [that] is nothing else than a death trap.”    She emphasized that this was not an isolated crisis but part of a decades-long “settler colonial project of erasure” that has intensified in recent months through military force, starvation, and mass displacement. Albanese condemned the deep complicity of corporate and state actors i...

Israel Guilty Of SYSTEMATIC Sexual Violence Against Palestinians! – U.N. Confirms

The Jimmy Dore Show   A recent UN report titled "More Than a Human Can Bear" details systematic sexual and gender-based violence committed by Israeli forces and settlers against Palestinians since October 7. The report documents harrowing accounts of abuse, including rape, torture, and sexual humiliation of detainees—both men and women—by Israeli military and prison personnel. As Jimmy Dore points out, despite extensive evidence and testimonies, U.S. media and political figures have largely ignored or downplayed these findings, while continuing to repeat debunked claims about Hamas.
