«Καίνε» κόμματα & πολιτικούς οι... «χρήσιμες χορηγίες» της Siemens

Αποκαλυπτική για την τακτική του γερμανικού κολοσσού ήταν στην κατάθεσή της, η πρώην γραμματέας του Μιχάλη Χριστοφοράκου. Η ΑικατερίνηΤσακάλου, στην δίκη ενώπιον του Τριμελούς Εφετείου Κακουργημάτων για την «σύμβαση 8002» μεταξύ της γερμανικής εταιρίας και του ΟΤΕ, αναφέρθηκε εκ νέου σε χορηγίες σε πολιτικά κόμματα και δώρα σε πολιτικά πρόσωπα.

Η μάρτυρας, επανέλαβε στην κατάθεση της όσα έχει ήδη υποστηρίξει τόσο στο στάδιο της ανάκρισης όσο και ενώπιον της Επιτροπής της Βουλής, τονίζοντας στους δικαστές ότι το «πρόγραμμα χορηγιών» σε πολιτικά κόμματα αντιστοιχούσε στο 2% του τζίρου του τμήματος τηλεπικοινωνιών και επίσης ότι θεωρεί πως για αυτό είχαν γνώση τα αρμόδια στελέχη της μητρικής Siemens.

Ανέφερε μάλιστα η μάρτυρας ότι οι επίμαχες χορηγίες κρίνονταν χρήσιμες και επικαλέστηκε τη φράση που της είχε πει ο άλλοτε προϊστάμενος της, ότι τα χρήματα στα κόμματα αλλά και τα δώρα σε πολιτικούς δίνονταν «προκειμένου να ανοίγουν οι δουλειές».

Η Αικ. Τσακάλου αναφέρθηκε στο ένα εκατομμύριο μάρκα που είχε πάρει ο κ. Τσουκάτος και υποστήριξε πως η νεολαία του ΠΑΣΟΚ είχε λάβει χορηγία 15.000 ευρώ, ενώ χορηγία είχε λάβει και η «Πολιτική Άνοιξη» του Αντώνη Σαμαρά.

Σύμφωνα με την μάρτυρα, η εταιρία είχε ιδιαίτερες σχέσεις με πολιτικούς όπως οι κ.κ. Γείτονας και Μαντέλης, ενώ δώρα της εταιρίας, οικιακός εξοπλισμός, τηλεφωνικά κέντρα και άλλα, είχαν πάρει πολιτικά πρόσωπα μεταξύ των οποίων ο Κυριάκος Μητσοτάκης και η σύζυγός του, η Ντόρα Μπακογιάννη και ο Άκης Τσοχατζόπουλος.

Κατόπιν ερωτήσεων της Έδρας, η μάρτυρας κατέθεσε για τις σχέσεις που διατηρούσε ο Μιχάλης Χριστοφοράκος με την οικογένεια Μητσοτάκη, λέγοντας μεταξύ άλλων για τον εξοπλισμό δυο πολιτικών γραφείων του Κυριάκου Μητσοτάκη η κάλυψη της δαπάνης των οποίων ξεπερνούσε το επιτρεπόμενο όριο.

Όπως είπε η κ. Τσακάλου μετά το 2006, οπότε η υπόθεση της Siemens άρχισε να ερευνάται εκτενώς από την γερμανική Δικαιοσύνη, ο Μιχάλης Χριστοφοράκος της είχε ζητήσει να καταστρέψει όλα τα στοιχεία που είχε στη διάθεση της, μεταξύ των οποίων και τον φάκελο με τις δωρεές σε πολιτικούς και τις χορηγίες σε πολιτικά κόμματα, κάτι που η ίδια δεν έπραξε.

"Kidnapped in Int'l Waters": Israel Intercepts Gaza-Bound Aid Ship, Detains Greta Thunberg & Others

Democracy Now!   Eleven peace activists and one journalist on board the Gaza Freedom Flotilla ship, the "Madleen," were detained by Israeli soldiers as their ship carrying vital humanitarian aid for starving Palestinians approached Gaza.    The ship was intercepted by Israeli forces in the middle of the night in international waters. Its supplies were seized and communications jammed. The unarmed activists will likely be transported to Israeli detention or "immediately deported," says Ann Wright, a U.S. military veteran who has participated in four Freedom Flotilla journeys and now serves on the steering committee of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. She calls on citizens of countries around the world to push for the activists' release and an end to Israel's war on Gaza. 

How Israel’s Supporters Play Victim to Justify Genocide & Silence Critics

BreakThrough News   As Israel commits a live-streamed genocide in Gaza, Western media and political elites continue to center one narrative: Jewish fear. But what about the actual victims of this genocide—Palestinians? Journalist Nora Barrows-Friedman joins Rania Khalek on Dispatches for a fearless conversation on Zionist indoctrination in the Jewish diaspora, how antisemitism is being weaponized to silence critics of Israel, and how Jewish identity politics has been manipulated to cover for unspeakable crimes. From the media blackout on Israeli war crimes to the erasure of anti-Palestinian hate crimes—even in the diaspora—Nora lays bare the contradictions and power structures behind it all. 

How the U.S. & Israel Used Rafael Grossi to Hijack the IAEA and Start a War on Iran

Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), allowed the IAEA to be used by the United States and Israel—an undeclared nuclear weapons state in long-term violation of IAEA rules—to manufacture a pretext for war on Iran, despite his agency’s own conclusion that Iran had no nuclear weapons program.   by Medea Benjamin - Nicolas J. S. Davies On June 12th, based on a damning report by Grossi, a slim majority of the IAEA Board of Governors voted to find Iran in non-compliance with its obligations as an IAEA member. Of the 35 countries represented on the Board, only 19 voted for the resolution, while 3 voted against it, 11 abstained and 2 did not vote. The United States contacted eight board member governments on June 10th to persuade them to either vote for the resolution or not to vote. Israeli officials said they saw the U.S. arm-twisting for the IAEA resolution as a significant signal of U.S. support for Israel’s war plans, revealing how much Isra...

Muslim Wins New York City Mayoral Primary & Zionists FREAK OUT!

The Jimmy Dore Show   A "scary" Muslim named Zohran Mamdani has won the Democratic mayoral primary, and Zionists are absolutely freaking out. In this clip Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the over-the-top reactions from political figures and media personalities, particularly right-wing commentators, who equate Mamdani's Muslim identity and progressive views with anti-American and anti-Israel sentiment. They also explore how Mamdani's refusal to blindly support Israel during debates may have contributed to his popularity, contrasting it with exaggerated loyalty pledges from other candidates. Throughout, the hosts criticize the Democratic Socialists of America, highlight government hypocrisy, and deride fearmongering rhetoric around Muslims and leftist policies. 

How the EU is using anti-Russia sanctions to criminalise journalism

The EU sanctioned me and my media outlet for covering Palestine protests in Germany. It’s part of Europe’s growing authoritarianism and militarism, cloaked in language of fighting disinformation and defending democracy.   by Hüseyin Dogru   Part 2 - How the EU uses anti-Russian hysteria to smear Palestine solidarity journalism   The official rationale for sanctioning me hinges on red .’s alleged links to Russian influence. The EU sanctions listing cited just two pieces of “evidence”: that some red. staff had previously worked for Russian-funded media, and that we covered “politically controversial subjects” – specifically: Palestine. That’s it. The listing accuses me, through my work with red ., of “facilitating violent demonstrations”, amplifying “radical Islamic terrorist narratives” and claims our staff “coordinated with occupiers”. Not a single piece of evidence is cited, apart from the fact that we published footage of a pro-Palestine student occupation in Berlin. I...

UN report confirms: Israel is a terrorist state and its goal is to exterminate all Palestinians

Israeli attacks on educational, religious and cultural sites in the Occupied Palestinian Territory amount to war crimes and the crime against humanity of extermination, UN Commission says.     globinfo freexchange Israel has obliterated Gaza’s education system and destroyed over half of all religious and cultural sites in the Gaza Strip, part of a widespread and relentless assault against the Palestinian people in which Israeli forces have committed war crimes and the crime against humanity of extermination, the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem and Israel, said in a new report [yesterday].

War criminal Netanyahu is pushing the Orange Clown and the US into the abyss

globinfo freexchange   It seems that the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, is rushing to accelerate the decline of the US empire by forcing Donald Trump into an utterly devastating war with Iran.   Trump shot himself in the foot during his first term by killing the Iran nuclear deal just because he wanted to erase everything from the Obama legacy. His insane narcissism pushed him into crazy acts and made him believe that he could make another deal with Iran credited solely on him.   But now he is in big trouble because he has to deal with a corrupted psychopath who won't hesitate to burn the entire planet just to save himself.  As if the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza was not enough, the out-of-control psychopath Netanyahu, is doing whatever he can to drag the US into a war with Iran. As he realized that the Iranians are approaching the negotiating table again, (rather surprisingly with the man that killed the first deal and assassinated Qasem Soleimani), he decide...
