Greece's annual independence day in a capital-fortress

Obama to support Samaras while Athens center was full of police excluded for public The picture today from the military parade in Athens with no audience, except of some people who permitted to watch with special invitations, shows perfectly the police-state that the Samaras administration has created, but also depicts the distance between the current political class and people. As the government is forced to follow the destructive IMF recipes and is expected to take new measures after the euro-elections, this picture was also a message to anyone who will dare to fight against such policies. Obama rushed to support Samaras through an announcement: http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2014/03/24/presidential-proclamation-greek-independence-day-national-day-celebratio

March 24, 2014: 15 years from NATO “humanitarian” bombings in Yugoslavia

“ Exactly 15 years ago, on March 24, NATO began its 78-day bombing of Yugoslavia. The alliance bypassed the UN under a 'humanitarian' pretext, launching aggression that claimed hundreds of civilian lives and caused a much larger catastrophe than it averted.” “ Codenamed 'Operation Allied Force,' it was the largest attack ever undertaken by the alliance. It was also the first time that NATO used military force without the approval of the UN Security Council and against a sovereign nation that did not pose a real threat to any member of the alliance.” “ In the course of the campaign, NATO launched 2,300 missiles at 990 targets and dropped 14,000 bombs, including depleted uranium bombs and cluster munitions (unexploded cluster bombs continued to pose a threat to people long after the campaign was over.) Over 2,000 civilians were killed, including 88 children, and thousands more were injured. Over 200,000 ethnic Serbs were forced to leave their homeland in Ko

A class war culmination after the euro-elections

Neoliberal dictatorship in Greece is ready to take new cruel suppression measures to finish the experiment by system failure Samaras administration announced recently its will to distribute the primary surplus. Government's show continued through the known tactics, as the government officials played their roles and the Greek PM declared with a supposedly strict manner that he is going to distribute primary surplus, despite Troika's orders not to do so. ( http://www.enetenglish.gr/?i=news.en.politics&id=1817 ) The show continued also inside government through the "fresh milk" case and the supposed "rebel" MPs declaring that they will not retreat ( http://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2014/03/21/greeces-coalition-government-at-risk-to-drown-in-fresh-milk/ ), in an attempt to prevent the total defeat of the Socialist party PASOK in euro-elections and persuade voters that they stand for their own "red lines".

Κορύφωση του ταξικού πολέμου μετά τις ευρωεκλογές

Η νεοφιλελεύθερη δικτατορία στην Ελλάδα ετοιμάζεται για νέα σκληρά μέτρα καταστολής ώστε να ολοκληρωθεί το πείραμα του system failure Η κυβέρνηση Σαμαρά ανακοίνωσε πρόσφατα την απόδοση του πρωτογενούς πλεονάσματος. Το σόου της κυβέρνησης και η γνωστή τακτική συνεχίστηκε, με τους κυβερνώντες να παίζουν θέατρο και τον πρωθυπουργό με δήθεν αυστηρό ύφος να δηλώνει ότι δεν πρόκειται να κάνει πίσω στις απαιτήσεις της Τρόικα να μην αποδοθεί το πρωτογενές πλεόνασμα.  Το σόου συνεχίστηκε και σε ενδοκυβερνητικό επίπεδο με αφορμή την υπόθεση του γάλακτος και τους δήθεν "αντάρτες" να δηλώνουν με έμφαση ότι δεν πρόκειται να υποχωρήσουν, σε μια απόπειρα να διασώσουν τα ποσοστά του ΠΑΣΟΚ εν όψει ευρωεκλογών, αλλά και να πείσουν ότι έχουν και αυτοί τις δικές τους κόκκινες γραμμές. Τα συστημικά ΜΜΕ, όπως ήταν αναμενόμενο, πρόβαλαν τις διαφωνίες για το γάλα ως μείζον θέμα. Δεν είναι η πρώτη φορά που παίζεται αυτή η παράσταση: http://failedevolution.
