Today, the neoliberal dictatorship conquers Europe, attempts a new onslaught against Latin America . After the retreat of the Leftist government in Greece against Brussels bureaufascists and Berlin directorate, the experiment in Greece has ended and is about to be imposed to the whole Europe. People in Europe and Latin America must resist.

11 Σεπτεμβρίου 1973: Η αρχή της νεοφιλελεύθερης δικτατορίας και οι σημερινοί νοσταλγοί του Πινοσέτ

failed evolution Η 11η Σεπτεμβρίου 2018 σηματοδοτεί την 45η μαύρη επέτειο από το στρατιωτικό πραξικόπημα, υποστηριζόμενο από τις ΗΠΑ, στη Χιλή, που έριξε τον δημοκρατικά εκλεγμένο πρόεδρο, Σαλβαδόρ Αλιέντε το 1973 και οδήγησε στην 17χρονη δικτατορία του Πινοσέτ. Η Χιλή μετατράπηκε στο πρώτο πειραματόζωο του νεοφιλελευθερισμού. Ο Μίλτον Φρίντμαν και τα παιδιά του Σικάγο συμβουλεύουν τον δικτάτορα να εξοντώσει το κράτος και να ιδιωτικοποιήσει τα πάντα. Η Χιλή καταλήφθηκε από μεγάλα καρτέλ, εταιρίες Αμερικανικών συμφερόντων και οι άνθρωποι υπέφεραν κάτω από το βάρβαρο καθεστώς του Πινοσέτ, ο οποίος ήταν και πολύ καλός φίλος της Θάτσερ. Η σημερινή δεξιά είναι αδύνατο να κρύψει την τυφλή της αφοσίωση στο νεοφιλελεύθερο δόγμα. Είναι τέτοια η εμμονή της στις νεοφιλελεύθερες πολιτικές που ο Καραγκούνης έφτασε να εκθειάζει το ασφαλιστικό σύστημα του Πινοσέτ! Είναι βέβαιο ότι οι νεοφιλελεύθεροι ταλιμπάν της ΝΔ θα συνεχίσουν να εφαρμόζουν με ζήλο τις ίδιες πολιτ

Starving off-camera: in Yemen 20 million fuel the Saudi-US-NATO war machine

Within days of starting the war, Saudi Arabia imposed a total land, air and sea blockade, along with targeting vital agriculture and food supply infrastructure that sustains life for the 29 million Yemenis — all of which constitute war crimes under international law. by AbdulRahman Qahtan and Mnar Muhawesh The UN estimates that nearly 20 million Yemenis could die of starvation by the end of this year. That’s about 70 percent of the entire population. That horrific number includes more than 2 million children who are already going hungry, including 500,000 who are suffering from severe malnutrition. The people of Yemen have found themselves struggling not only for survival, but for a space in the Western media’s war coverage. In the shadow of the conflict in Syria, the men, women and children of Yemen are being deliberately starved and targeted by strategic airstrikes and an illegal blockade in a war initiated by Saudi Arabia and aided, massively if no

Ortega warns of US military intervention, open to meeting Trump

Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega says he is open to meeting U.S. leader Donald Trump at the United Nations Security Council meeting this month despite the fact that he feels “under threat” from the country’s military amid interventionist comments and actions from the U.S., along with other regional right-wing governments. In an exclusive interview taped on Sunday night, Ortega told France 24 TV, " We are under threat. We can't rule out anything out as far as the U.S. is concerned. We can't rule out a military intervention, " added the Nicaraguan head of state during the interview to be aired on Monday night. U.S. government officials have not responded to Ortega’s comments, but the United States government is moving forward to apply the Nica Act (Nicaraguan Investment Conditionality Act) passed in October 2017 to slap sanctions on the Central American country much like it has on Venezuela. However, Ortega said that if given the chanc

Builder of massive underground bunkers claims that billionaires developed detailed plans to flee to New Zealand in a potential collapse

Several Silicon Valley billionaires purchase massive underground bunkers built in Murchison, Texas shipped to New Zealand, where the bunkers are buried in secret underground nests. Robert Vicino, founder of the Vivos Project, a builder of massive underground bunkers, claims that the Silicon Valley elites developed detailed plans to flee to New Zealand while attending the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland where the world’s richest biggest kahunas meet every year to take victory laps and discuss future biz battles. According to Vicino “ They foresaw a revolution or a change where society is going to go after the 1 per centers. In other words, them. ” Billionaires today have much more to consider other than a French Revolution-style uprising that targets the one-percent (them). There are other factors at work like nuclear war, a killer germ, or climate Armageddon, when every street turns dangerous with gangs trolling for food and gasoline and ammo and rich people.

The Troika’s Policy in Greece: Rob the Greek people and give the money to private banks, the ECB, the IMF and the dominant States of the Eurozone

On 20 August 2018, the Greek government of Alexis Tsipras, the IMF and the European leaders celebrated the end of the Third Memorandum. On this occasion, the major media and those in power spread the following message: Greece has regained its freedom, its economy is improving, unemployment is on the decline, Europe has lent Greece 300 billion and the Greeks will have to start repaying that debt in 2022 or in 2032. The main claims are completely unfounded as Greece remains under the control of its creditors. In compliance with the accords that the Alexis Tsipras government signed, the country must imperatively achieve a primary budgetary surplus of 3.5% which will force it to continue brutal policies of reduction of public spending in the social sector and in investment. Contrary to the dominant message that Greece will not begin to repay its debt until some time in the future, it should be clearly understood that Greece has been repaying considerable amounts constantly all al

globinfo freexchange Peter Lavelle analyses the storm cloud of war forming over Syria, and how a domestically boxed in US President Trump may have no other option but to go to war in Syria, so as to survive the remainder of his term. The Russian military claims that has obtained “irrefutable” data that terrorist groups, including Jabhat an-Nusra, and the White Helmets met in Idlib province on Sunday, according to the ministry’s spokesperson Igor Konashenkov.

Free cheese for Swiss? Hundreds sign up to get $2,500 a month under basic income trial

Some 600 people have enrolled in a private basic income experiment in Switzerland, less than a week after it was announced. The trial apparently aims to find out what the citizens are going to do if granted over $2,500 monthly. Some 590 people in the Swiss town of Rheinau have reportedly agreed to receive a monthly universal basic income (UBI) of 2,500 francs ($2,570) for a year. The practical experiment needs 650 participants – half the population of Rheinau – before it can go ahead. The woman behind the experiment, Rebecca Panian, says she needs minimum half of the town’s population to be involved before the project can move onto the fundraising stage. The 3 to 5 million francs needed for the 12-month experiment is going to be raised from crowdfunding or donations from institutions. Participants who earn more than 2,500 francs will be required to repay any money received during the 12-month period. If the experiment goes ahead, Panian plans on documenting its pr

All three Central American states switched their formal relations in favor of Beijing recently, with El Salvador recognizing the One China principle in August, the Dominican Republic in May, and Panama in June 2017. Washington instead continues to voice active support for Taiwanese Pr
