Ο Τσίπρας δεν θέλει ...

Όπως είχαμε συμπεράνει ήδη από τον Μάιο του '21 μέσα από το άρθρο Μπλέξαμε άσχημα ..., ο Τσίπρας κάνει αγγαρεία γιατί δεν φαίνεται να θέλει να κυβερνήσει (και γιατί να θέλει, αφού βλέπει ότι έρχεται μεγαλύτερο μπάχαλο και χάος).

Δύο χρόνια μετά, φαίνεται ότι το συμπέρασμα επιβεβαιώνεται.

Στο παρά πέντε των εκλογών του Μαίου ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ φάνηκε σαν να πυροβολεί τα πόδια του κυρίως με τις δηλώσεις Κατρούγκαλου που τρόμαξαν τους μικρομεσαίους ελεύθερους επαγγελματίες. Πολλοί λένε ότι ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ μπορεί να έχασε ως και 5 μονάδες εξαιτίας τους, ίσως και παραπάνω.

Αλλά και τώρα, βγήκαν άλλοι λαγοί, όπως ο Φίλης να κάνουν δηλώσεις που από άποψη τάκτικης θα μπορούσαν να χαρακτηριστούν ως καθαρά "αυτογκόλ".

Το κερασάκι στην τούρτα ήρθε με το νέο, μάλλον "χλιαρό" σποτ του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ με το σλόγκαν "Πώς θα ζήσουμε καλύτερα", όπου ανάμεσα σ'όλα τ'άλλα υπάρχει και ξεκάρφωτη η δέσμευση περί γάμου για όλα τα ζευγάρια. Σε μια ήδη συντηρητική κοινωνία που συντηρητικοποιείται όλο και περισσότερο, όταν δεσμεύεσαι για κάτι τέτοιο (και πάλι από άποψη τακτικής), είναι σαν να πυροβολείς τα πόδια σου για άλλη μια φορά.

Η όλη κατάσταση στον ΣΥΡΙΖΑ βγάζει μια αίσθηση του "πάμε και όπου βγει", για να θυμηθούμε και την μεγάλη τραγωδία των Τεμπών, η οποία ξαφνικά μοιάζει σαν να μπήκε στο αρχείο λες και συνέβη πριν από 30 χρόνια.

Ο Τσίπρας δεν φαίνεται να καίγεται να κυβερνήσει. Αν ήταν άλλος στη θέση του θα ήταν στα κάγκελα με τόσα σκάνδαλα και αποτυχίες της Μητσοτακικής διακυβέρνησης. Θα εκμεταλλευόταν το κάθε δευτερόλεπτο που θα του έδινε η μιντιακή χούντα για να τα υπενθυμίζει στον κόσμο ξανά και ξανά. Αλλά ο Αλέξης κάνει βολτούλες, χαλαρές κουβεντούλες, καταθέτει κανα στεφάνι, αφήνει κανα λουλούδι κ.λ.π. Πιο χαλαρά δεν γίνεται.

Μήπως άραγε δεν ήταν τυχαία η επίσκεψη Τσίπρα στο Βερολίνο και η συνάντηση με Σολτς ένα μήνα πριν από τις εκλογές του Μαίου; Μάλλον δεν ήταν. Ο Τσίπρας ενδεχομένως να ήθελε να ανιχνεύσει τις προθέσεις των Γερμανών, καθώς αυτός γνωρίζει (ίσως καλύτερα από τον καθένα), τι εστί Γερμανικός βούρδουλας. Το κλίμα που εισέπραξε μάλλον προμηνύει νέα καταιγίδα για την Ελλάδα και έτσι ο (έμπειρος πια) Αλέξης και αρκετά πιο ώριμος και προσγειωμένος από τις Γερμανικές και Βρυξελλιώτικες σφαλιάρες, αποφάσισε τελικά να "στρίψει δια του αρραβώνος" από την εξουσία.

Ήδη άρχισαν να χτυπάνε τα καμπανάκια από Βρυξέλλες που σημαίνουν τερματισμό της χαλαρότητας και των διαφόρων επιδομάτων και επιστροφή στην κανονικότητα. Και όταν ο άξονας Βρυξελλών-Βερολίνου μιλάει για κανονικότητα, εννοεί (για όσους το έχουν ξεχάσει), σκληρή λιτότητα.

Δεν είναι όμως μόνο αυτό. Με το Μητσοτακικό καθεστώς να έχει μοιράσει άπειρο χρήμα δεξιά και αριστερά για να κερδίσει τις εκλογές, είναι σχεδόν βέβαιο ότι το ταμείο είναι όχι απλά μείον, αλλά ότι έχουν δημιουργηθεί νέες μεγάλες μαύρες τρύπες στα ασφαλιστικά ταμεία και σε άλλους τομείς του δημοσίου.

Αναλογιστείτε τι σημαίνει αυτό σε μια ήδη χρεοκοπημένη χώρα, όπου το χρέος συνεχώς αυξάνεται.

Γιατί λοιπόν να θέλει ο Τσίπρας να σκάσει μια τέτοια βόμβα στα χέρια του που ενδεχομένως θα σημάνει μια δεύτερη επίσημη χρεοκοπία, χειρότερη από εκείνη του 2010;

Θα πει κανείς, ο Μητσοτάκης δεν το ξέρει αυτό; Το ξέρει, αλλά τώρα δεν μπορεί να κάνει πίσω. Και το μόνο που του μένει είναι να φτιάξει ένα παντοδύναμο καθεστώς με έναν αποδεκατισμένο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, ώστε όταν θα τρέχει στα Καστελλόριζα σαν τον Γιωργάκη να ανακοινώνει την άφιξη του εφιάλτη του ΔΝΤ, να μην υπάρχει αυτή τη φορά καμία εναλλακτική στον πολιτικό ορίζοντα.

Επειδή όμως τίποτα δεν μπορεί πια να μας εκπλήξει σ'αυτή τη χώρα, θα πρέπει να θεωρήσουμε ότι στις κάλπες της 25ης Ιουνίου τα πάντα μπορούν να συμβούν ...

Jabalia, Khan Yunis, Rafah: The spots of Zionist barbarism and genocide in Gaza will become the graveyard of US imperialism

by system failure It is certainly not the first genocide in human history, but it is the first one transmitted in real time. For over a year now, we witnessed the horror in Gaza, a place that has been turned into a real hell on earth by the fascist Israeli state and the Zionist barbarism. It didn't start in October 7, 2023, as the Western and the Zionist propaganda wants you to believe. Before that, we had decades of colonization, torture, brutal suppression, de-humanization, resulting in a slow-motion genocide in process by the Israeli state against Palestinians. The events of October 7, only gave the pretext to the Israeli regime accelerate the genocidal process and literally flatten Gaza, killing thousands of civilians at an unprecedented rate. The corporate media of the West covered outrageously the events since October 7, resulting in a despicable effort - even now - to whitewash Israel for its crimes. There are no words to describe the ...

Netanyahu's Corruption Case & How Endless War Keeps Him in Power

Democracy Now! As the official death toll in Gaza tops 45,000 and Israel's wars throughout the Middle East continue, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in court for a long-awaited corruption trial, making him the country's first sitting leader to face criminal charges. He is charged with fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes in three separate cases. For more on this extraordinary case, Democracy Now! spoke with acclaimed filmmaker Alex Gibney, whose latest documentary The Bibi Files features leaked behind-the-scenes footage of police interrogations of Netanyahu, his wife and those accused of bribing him. The film has been banned in Israel, and Netanyahu even tried unsuccessfully to stop it from screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, but Gibney says it is being widely shared inside Israel through unofficial channels. " Strictly speaking, this is a film about corruption, " Gibney tells Democracy Now! " It starts with petty corrupt...

It is Russia that surprised the imperialist West in Syria, not the other way round

by system failure The rapid fall of Bashar al-Assad in Syria surprised most of the people who follow closely the Syrian crisis from its beginning. At a time where there was not a single sign that the Salafi Jihadists could revive and take over Damascus, a rebranded Al-Qaeda finally did it, just in a few days, almost without any resistance by the Syrian Army and its allies. The Western corporate media celebrated the fall of Assad, yet an atmosphere of perplexity and uncertainty shortly replaced the celebrating climate, mostly due to the fact that the new authority in Syria was the one that had been previously classified by the imperialist West as Islamic terrorism. The major Western outlets immediately lunched a massive operation to whitewash Abu Mohammad al-Julani, in an effort to transform the new leader of Syria, from a radical Islamic terrorist, to a kind of moderate and even secular figure, who respects all religions and ethnic groups. The whole effort would be r...

Privatizing Syria: US Plans to Sell Off a Nation’s Wealth After Assad

by Kit Klarenberg Part 2 - ‘Reconstruction Project’ Syria’s economic independence and strength under Assad’s rule and the benefits reaped by average citizens, as a result, were never acknowledged in the mainstream before or during the decade-long proxy war. Yet, countless reports from major international institutions underline this reality – which has now been brutally vanquished, never to return. For example, an April 2015 World Health Organization document noted how Damascus “had one of the best-developed healthcare systems in the Arab world.” Per a 2018 U.N. investigation, “universal, free healthcare” was extended to all Syrian citizens, who “enjoyed some of the highest levels of care in the region.” Education was likewise free, and before the conflict, “an estimated 97% of primary school-aged Syrian children were attending class, and Syria’s literacy rates were thought to be at over 90% for both men and women.” By 2016, millions were out of school . A U.N. Human ...

The BBC’s Civil War Over Gaza

Drop Site News is publishing a landmark investigation about the BBC’s coverage of Israel’s unrelenting assault on Gaza by British journalist Owen Jones. His report is based on interviews with 13 journalists and other BBC staffers who offer remarkable insights into how senior figures within the BBC’s news operation skewed stories in favor of Israel’s narratives and repeatedly dismissed objections registered by scores of staffers who, throughout the past 14 months, demanded that the network uphold its commitment to impartiality and fairness. by Owen Jones Part 2 - “This is about editorial standards” In November 2023, BBC senior management attended a morning meeting with at least 100 staffers to discuss coverage of Gaza. It soon descended into a fiery debate. “We’ve got to all remember that this all started on 7 October,” Deborah Turness, the CEO of the news division, called out, in an attempt to assert control of the meeting, two attendees told me. Liliane Lando...

Rebranded Al-Qaeda takes over Syria in big win for US, Israel, & Turkey

Geopolitical Economy Report The Syrian government was overthrown, and Salafi-jihadist rebels led by a rebranded version of Al-Qaeda called Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) took power in Damascus. US President Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu boasted of helping topple Bashar al-Assad. NATO member Turkey played a key role as well. Ben Norton explains how the West dealt a major blow to the Axis of Resistance and Iran.

How the US Media Helped the Biden Administration Distance Itself From the Horrors of Gaza

White House–curated stories of performative outrage and feigned helplessness provided cover for an administration arming death on an industrial scale. by Adam Johnson and Othman Ali Part 4 - Fuming/Deeply Concerned Biden A key companion to Helpless Biden is Fuming/Deeply Concerned Biden. This is any report, analysis, or opinion that paints Biden as secretly upset, outraged, having stern words for Netanyahu, or privately sad or anguished about civilian casualties. NBC News, 11/15/23, “The gap between the Biden administration and the Netanyahu government over Gaza’s future is widening” CNN, 12/14/23, “Unprecedented tensions between White House and Netanyahu as Biden feels political price for standing with Israel” Axios , 1/14/24, “Biden ‘running out’ of patience with Bibi as Gaza war hits 100 days” The Washington Post , 2/11/24, “Biden moving closer than ever to a breach with Netanyahu over war in Gaz...

Amnesty International investigation concludes Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza

Part 6 - Accountability for genocide “The international community’s seismic, shameful failure for over a year to press Israel to end its atrocities in Gaza, by first delaying calls for a ceasefire and then continuing arms transfers, is and will remain a stain on our collective conscience,” said Agnès Callamard. “Governments must stop pretending they are powerless to end this genocide, which was enabled by decades of impunity for Israel’s violations of international law. States need to move beyond mere expressions of regret or dismay and take strong and sustained international action, however uncomfortable a finding of genocide may be for some of Israel’s allies. “The International Criminal Court’s (ICC) arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity issued last month offer real hope of long-overdue justice for victims. States must demonstrate their respect for the court...

With Trump’s Re-Election, a Venezuela Invasion Could Be On the Cards

The re-election of Donald Trump to the presidency of the United States has many in Venezuela extremely concerned. From assassinations, terror campaigns, sanctions and coups, the first Trump administration tried everything short of a full-scale invasion of the country. With a cabinet full of hawks, MintPress assesses the potential for a future U.S. intervention in Venezuela. Part 4 - Sanctions, Piracy, and Kidnapping The most far-reaching U.S. action against Venezuela, however, has been the punishing sanctions regime. The economic blockade of the country – which includes intimidating foreign nations and businesses into ceasing trading with Venezuela – devastated the country, leading to huge shortages of goods. Although some sanctions have been in place since 2004, they were drastically expanded under the Trump administration. Alfred de Zayas, an (American) United Nations Special Rapporteur who visited the country in 2018, likened the blockade to a “Medieval Siege” and estimated th...
