IMFexit?

Poul Thomsen and other IMF technocrats reportedly suggested the withdrawal of the Fund from the Greek program which shows that the Greek experiment is about to be completed

According to the Greek newspaper Ependisi, which invokes the Athens Agency, the suggestion of Poul Thomsen, the director of the European Department of the Fund, is that “the IMF should not participate in the new program, but to leave.”

Recall that Paul Thomsen, was up until about a year the head of the IMF on the Greek program. In fact, he has been found at the center of criticism and internal investigation of the Fund for the failure and mistakes of the program in Greece.

As stated in the article, Paul Thomsen reportedly insists on the withdrawal of the IMF, since, in his view, the conditions laid down by the statute of the Fund are not fulfilled in order to participate in support programs.

The report states that the same view like Thomsen share many of the IMF technocrats engaged in the Greek program, proposing a "velvet divorce" with Athens, in a way that allows the Fund to remain as technical advisor, without being involved with a new loan in the support program.

The report, inter alia, referred also to political pressure from European governments, but also from the USA, to the head of the Fund, Christine Lagarde, towards a decision that will permit the Fund to remain in the Greek program.

Translated from the original source:


This is definitely a strong sign that the IMF mafia and the European Financial Dictatorship (EFD) consider that the Greek experiment is about to be completed. Recall that various EFD executives had set indirectly a timeline for the completion of the Greek experiment sometime in 2016.

Therefore, sometime in 2016 we should expect another debt crisis in the next potential eurozone target. Portugal, Spain, Italy are the most probable targets because of their continuous problems enhanced by the devastated austerity policies imposed by the Brussels-Berlin axis.

Spain will be the most convenient target, because of the political uncertainty in the country that is expected to be continued for quite a long time, after the result in the recent national elections. The political uncertainty will be the perfect excuse and opportunity for the EFD to impose a puppet-government of technocrats like in the cases of Greece and Italy with the Papademos and Monti administrations respectively.

A debt crisis and a possible attack on Spanish spreads by the rating agencies will drive Spain straight to the ECB trap and will open the road to the banking puppets to take the power for as long as needed to transfer the most devastating neoliberal policies from Greece to Spain, and from there, to the other eurozone members.

Thomsen's claim that IMF should leave Greece because "the conditions laid down by the statute of the Fund are not fulfilled in order to participate in support programs", is at least ridiculous. For five years Greece has been systematically destroyed under the IMF recipe and participation and now suddenly he realized that the statute of the Fund does not permit its participation in such programs?

The only reason that the IMF has to leave, is because its mission to destroy the Greek economy and create the suitable environment for the new conditions according to the neoliberal agenda, has been fulfilled.

George Soros tried to get rid of Yanis Varoufakis because the neoliberal regime could not handle Greece and Ukraine simultaneously

globinfo freexchange In a recent interview at the Greek channel, Crete TV, the former Greek Minister of Finance, Yanis Varoufakis, made some interesting revelations. Among other things, he actually confirmed what the blog thought until now to be an exaggerated far-right conspiracy theory. He essentially confirmed that George Soros intervenes directly to political leaderships, substituting political institutions in Europe and elsewhere. Varoufakis said that, on June, 2015, George Soros tried to contact Alexis Tsipras via his own ‘channels’. In the interview, Varoufakis claims that he had no idea what Soros wanted to talk about. As Varoufakis also writes in his book Adults in the Room: My Battle with Europe's Deep Establishment, for years he has been falsely portrayed by the pro-troika establishment and the anti-Semitic Right as Soros’s stooge in Greece. Yet, Soros’s message to the Greek prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, came as a perverse vindication. ‘ Fire...

An example of how the banking cartels control countries

the Greek case by SCH If we take a look at the Greek legislation, we can understand why the country is totally controlled by big private banks. According to the legislation concerning operating rules of the Primary Dealers selected in order to provide specialised services in the government securities market , one can read that: From article 1, paragraph1: as Primary Dealers are appointed institutions authorised as credit institutions or investment firms in a country which is a member of the European Union or authorised as such in another jurisdiction by a regulatory authority which, in the opinion of the Minister of Finance and the Governor of the Bank of Greece (hereinafter “the Competent Authorities”), imposes an adequate supervisory/investor protection regime . Primary Dealers are selected in order to provide specialised services in the government securities market, i.e., to participate in the syndications and auctions of Greek government securities in the primary mark...

Η αβάσταχτη ελαφρότητα του αποκτηνωμένου Έλλην

του system failure   Θυμάμαι μια φράση που είχε ειπωθεί κάποτε σε κάποια εκπομπή της πάλαι ποτέ ποιοτικής ΕΡΤ, σχετικά με την επταετία της χούντας των συνταγματαρχών και το πως επέδρασε στον ψυχισμό του Έλληνα. 'Χάσαμε την αθωότητά μας', είναι η απόδοση αυτής της φράσης και μου φάνηκε τότε κάπως υπερβολικό, αλλά με τα χρόνια, κατάλαβα ακριβώς τι σήμαινε. Είναι δυνατόν, τα μόλις επτά χρόνια, έστω και ενός σκληρού καθεστώτος, να επηρεάσουν τόσο βαθιά τον ψυχισμό ενός ολόκληρου έθνους για δεκαετίες; Φαίνεται πως ναι.   Ο μέσος Έλληνας, που είχε συνηθίσει να υποπτεύεται τον οποιονδήποτε ως καταδότη του μαύρου καθεστώτος και άρα έπρεπε να προσέχει πως συμπεριφέρεται, αλλά και να αυτολογοκρίνεται, ανέπτυξε ανάλογα συμπεριφορικά μοτίβα και μετά την πτώση του καθεστώτος. Έγινε καχύποπτος με τον δίπλα του, αλλά και με το ίδιο το κράτος (όχι άδικα στις περισσότερες περιπτώσεις), περιχαρακώθηκε γύρω από το μικρό του οικογενειακό βασίλειο και δεν ξαναβρήκε ποτέ αυτή τη "χαμένη αθωότητ...
