Βασικοί λόγοι για τους οποίους το Αμερικανικό "βαθύ κράτος" θα επιχειρήσει να εμποδίσει μια γενική άνοδο της Αριστεράς στην Ευρώπη του system failure Είναι βέβαιο ότι διάφορα Αμερικανικά "think tanks" θα παρακολουθούν προσεκτικά αυτή τη στιγμή την άνοδο της Αριστεράς στην Ευρώπη ( http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/11/blog-post_22.html ), με τον ΣΥΡΙΖΑ στην Ελλάδα, το Podemos στην Ισπανία και το Die Linke να αναλαμβάνει ήδη την πρωθυπουργία στο Γερμανικό κρατίδιο της Θουριγγίας. ( http://tvxs.gr/news/eyropi-eop/sti-thoyriggia-proti-fora-prothypoyrgos-apo-tin-aristera ) Η άνοδος της Αριστεράς σε πανευρωπαϊκό επίπεδο φαίνεται ότι έρχεται με αρκετά γρήγορους ρυθμούς, καθώς μόλις πριν από περίπου ένα μήνα, είχε επισημανθεί σε αντίστοιχο άρθρο ότι: " Μια Αριστερή κυβέρνηση, σε μια πλήρως 'νεοφιλελευθεριοποιημένη' Ευρώπη ταγμένη απόλυτα στα συμφέροντα των πλουτοκρατών, θα είναι σαν ένας 'Δον Κιχώτης' που θα κυνηγά ανεμόμυλου

A "bypass" alternative for multinationals when publicity is focused on TTIP Key findings by the Corporate Europe Observatory “ On September 26, 2014, Canada and the European Union (EU) announced the conclusion of a far-reaching economic integration agreement, the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA). The agreement includes an investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) mechanism, which could unleash a corporate litigation boom against Canada, the EU and individual EU member states, and could dangerously thwart government efforts to protect citizens and the environment.” “ The ISDS mechanism gives foreign corporations the ability to directly sue countries at private international tribunals for compensation over health, environmental, financial and other domestic safeguards that they believe undermine their rights. These investor-state lawsuits are decided by private commercial arbitrators who are paid for each case they hear, with a cle

“ In November this year, the European Central Bank begins supervising the biggest banks in the European Union. From now on, the main responsibility for detecting risky banking, or banks that are outright failing, rests with that institution. Preparation has been ongoing since the so-called Single Supervisory Mechanism [SSM] was adopted by the Council and the European Parliament in the autumn of 2013. Rules on ethics were part of the considerations leading up to the approval, but it seems the ECB was not concerned with people with close ties to the very megabanks the SSM is supposed to supervise. ” “ The European Central Bank gets considerable powers* with the SSM. It can approve, reject, or annul a licence for a bank; it can order restructuring, impose a new leadership, and it can order capitalization in case a bank appears to be too vulnerable. All this to make the European banking sector more resilient. The draft decisions are made by the Supervisory Board and p

Podemos and SYRIZA pass the torch to Die Linke globinfo freexchange Die Linke in Germany becomes another European Leftist party that takes some form of power, after SYRIZA's win in euro elections and taking Greece's largest periphery, Attica, in the latest local elections for municipalities and prefectures. The European neoliberal economic empire is expected to launch now a war against this "threat" inside its jurisdiction. Angela Merkel already feels the "threat" as a spokesman for her CDU party in Thuringia said the coalition could threaten everything that had been achieved there in the past 25 years. From BBC: “ Leftist parties in Germany have agreed a historic coalition deal which will see the first far-left regional president since the fall of communism.” “ Bodo Ramelow of the socialist Die Linke (Left party) is set to become state premier of Thuringia next month. Die Linke, rooted in the old East German s

“ The UN refugee agency on Tuesday expressed deep concern about the 'catastrophic' humanitarian situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo's Katanga province , which has displaced hundreds of thousands of people.” “ Violence in the south-eastern province has forced some 400,000 people to flee their homes since the end of 2012, bringing the total number of internally displaced people in the province to nearly 600,000. During the last three months alone, more than 71,000 people have been newly displaced. ” “ In October, UNHCR registered 1,737 incidents in the territories of Kalemie and the so-called 'triangle of death' between the towns of Manono , Mitwaba and Pweto in northern Katanga. These included the lootin g and burning of houses, extortion, torture, forced labour and recruitment into armed groups, as well as sexual violence. ” "'We fear that this number of incidents could be significantly higher as insecurity and

by system failure It is certain that various US think tanks will be monitoring right now the rise of the Left in Greece with the radical-Left party SYRIZA, as well as Podemos in Spain and other countries in Europe ( http://failedevolution.blogspot.gr/2014/11/signs-of-resistance-against-neoliberal.html ). It's quite remarkable that the US political system, especially after Clinton administration, has been adopted by Europe, with the transformation of the Social-democrats. A characteristic example is Greece, as the Socialist party PASOK under Kostas Simitis, implemented the neoliberal perception of the free market and the financialization of nearly every aspect of economic activity. However, as in the US the Left was demonized for decades and totally vanished from the political scene, Europe was meant to be the field of the new Leftist political powers, after the latest global financial crisis. Inevitably, any possible change will start from Europe and follow a r

... και άλλη μια απόδειξη για τον τρόπο με τον οποίο όλοι συμμετέχουμε, λίγο ή πολύ, χρησιμοποιώντας τον κυνισμό με τον οποίο μας έχει εφοδιάσει ... “ ... έχω γύρω στις 40 μηνύσεις και αγωγές. Δεν έβρισα κανένα,δεν συκοφάντησα κανένα,ό,τι γράφω είναι δεμένο με στοιχεία και έγγραφα. Στις δίκες που γίνονται αθωώνομαι. Με έσυραν στα δικαστήρια για τη λίστα Λαγκάρντ και όταν αθωώθηκα άσκησαν έφεση στην απόφαση. Ούτε έμπορος ναρκωτικών να ήμουνα. Σκοπός τους δεν είναι να με καταδικάσουν. Σκοπός είναι να με εξοντώσουν. Σαράντα αγωγές σημαίνουν έξοδα 80.000 ευρώ, δεκάδες αναβολές, εργατοώρες στα δικαστήρια, απόσπαση απ τη δουλειά. Φιλοδοξούν πως όλα αυτά θα δημιουργήσουν την απαιτούμενη κούραση η οποία θα με κάνει πιο μαλακό και στρογγυλό για να μην τρέχω κάθε μέρα στα δικαστήρια.” “ Δεν τα έλεγα πια όλα στον κόσμο και δεν ζητούσα τη βοήθειά του όσο έπρεπε. Είχαν καταφέρει να με αυτολογοκρίνουν. Είχαν σπείρει για μένα όλα τα επιχειρήματα περί γραφικού,γκρινιάρη,επι

globinfo freexchange Μετά την απόπειρα προσέγγισης της Γιάννας Αγγελοπούλου με τον ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, φαίνεται ότι άρχισε ο χορός των αποχωρήσεων της "άρχουσας τάξης" από τον παραδοσιακό της και νεοφιλελεύθερο πλέον χώρο ΝΔ-ΠΑΣΟΚ, ο οποίος φαίνεται να παραπαίει. Η "απώλεια" Ψυχάρη είναι χαρακτηριστική: "... η Εφημερίδα των Συντακτών σε δημοσίευμά της με τίτλο 'Ρομαντισμός στο όνομα του πατρός' παρουσιάζει μια διαφορετική εικόνα για τους λόγους που ο Ανδρέας Ψυχάρης αποφάσισε να παραιτηθεί. 'Για την παραίτησή του ο Ανδρέας Ψυχάρης (υιός του Σ. Ψυχάρη του μεγάλου αφεντικού του ΔΟΛ) επικαλείται απογοήτευση, αλλά οι κακές γλώσσες την αποδίδουν στη μη ρύθμιση των δανείων τού πατέρα του, Σταύρου, στο Συγκρότημα Λαμπράκη και στη δύσκολη επανεκλογή', γράφει η εφημερίδα και προσθέτει: 'Για τους προσεκτικούς αναγνώστες και γνωρίζοντες τα γρανάζια της διαπλοκής και μόνη η επιστολή αποκαλύπτει τουλάχιστον τον έναν εκ των πραγματικών λόγων

“ Hillary as president would mean war with Russia. With neocon nazis such as Robert Kagan and Max Boot running her war policy and with Hillary’s comparison of Russia’s president Putin to Adolf Hitler, war would be a certainty. As Michel Chossudovsky and Noam Chomsky have written, the war would be nuclear. If Hillary is elected president, the financial gangsters and profiteering war criminals would complete their takeover of the country. It would be forever or until armageddon.” “ To understand what we would be getting with Hillary, recall the Clinton presidency. The Clinton presidency was transformative in ways not generally recognized. Clinton destroyed the Democratic Party with 'free trade' agreements, deregulated the financial system, launched Washington’s ongoing policy of 'regime change' with illegal military attacks on Yugoslavia and Iraq, and his regime used deadly force without cause against American civilians and covered up the murders with

Regular reports on the growing Poverty, Unemployment, Debt and Inequality of the neo-capitalist world USA: “ A staggering 2.5 million children are now homeless each year in America. This historic high represents one in every 30 children in the United States. Child homelessness increased in 31 states and the District of Columbia from 2012 to 2013. Children are homeless in every city, county, and state—every part of our country.” “ Based on a calculation using the most recent U.S. Department of Education’s count of homeless children in U.S. public schools and on 2013 U.S. Census data: • 2,483,539 children experienced homelessness in the U.S. in 2013. • This represents one in every 30 children in the U.S.” “ From 2012 to 2013 , the number of children experiencing homelessness annually in the U.S.: • Increased by 8% nationally. • Increased in 31 states and the District of Columbia. • Increased by 10% or more in 13 states and the Distric
