Φήμες

Πρώην οδηγός της ΕΘΕΛ ο "χασάπης του Όσλο";

Φήμες άρχισαν να διαδίδονται όταν ανώτατο στέλεχος της Κρατικής Ασφάλειας του Όσλο βλέποντας το επίμαχο βίντεο που αναρτήθηκε στο διαδίκτυο μετά την επεισοδιακή διαδήλωση της 29ης Ιουνίου στο κέντρο της Αθηνας, φέρεται να δήλωσε ότι αναγνώρισε στο πρόσωπο ενός εκ των αναξιοπαθούντων ροπαλοφόρων της ΕΘΕΛ που περιθάλπονταν με στοργή από αστυνομικούς των ΜΑΤ στον περίβολο της Βουλής, τον άνθρωπο που προσπάθησε, με χλιαρή εμφανώς αποδοχή, να καθαρίσει την Ευρώπη από τη μάστιγα του Ισλάμ την περασμένη Παρασκευή στη νορβηγική πρωτεύουσα.
Η δήλωση προκάλεσε την έντονη αντίδραση της Ελληνικής Αστυνομίας, που έσπευσε να διαψεύσει τον Νορβηγό αξιωματικό και να διευκρινίσει ότι ουδεμία σχέση έχει ο μακελάρης του Ούτεϊγια με τα συγκεκριμένα πρόσωπα. Ο εκπρόσωπος της ΕΛ.ΑΣ. ξεκαθάρισε ότι οι εμφανιζόμενοι στο βίντεο δεν είναι τίποτε παραπάνω από απλοί ροπαλοφόροι οδηγοί της ΕΘΕΛ και ουδέποτε εμπλέκονται σε εγκληματικές πράξεις, εκτός εάν αυτές αφορούν επιχειρήσεις - σκούπα κατά μεταναστών στο κέντρο της Αθήνας. Επίσης εξήγησε ότι οι εν λόγω εμφανιζόμενοι συνεισφέρουν εθελοντικά στο έργο της Αστυνομίας και έχουν μετατρέψει το καταστατικό της οργάνωσής τους σε Μη Κυβερνητικής Οργάνωσης (ΜΚΟ). Ο εκπρόσωπος μάλιστα έφτασε σε σημείο να ζητήσει από το Νορβηγό συνάδελφό του να ανακαλέσει τους ισχυρισμούς του, καθώς υποστηρίζει ότι αυτοί πλήττουν "συνολικά την αξιοπιστία των Ελλήνων νεοναζί, τους στιγματίζει σαν εγκληματίες και αμαυρώνει την ιδιότητά τους ως εθελοντών της ΕΛ.ΑΣ. Επίσης, ότι αποθαρρύνει τη "δημιουργία διεθνούς φασιστικού θέρετρου ("resort") στη χώρα μας, το οποίο θα μπορούσε να συνεισφέρει στην τουριστική ανάπτυξη της χώρας, διοργανώνοντας κυνήγι κεφαλών μεταναστών για τουρισμό υψηλού εισοδηματικού προφίλ που μαζί με τα γήπεδα γκολφ έχει τόσο ανάγκη ο τόπος".

Επίσης, σε γνωστή σελίδα του διαδικτύου αναρτήθηκε δήλωση του επικεφαλής των εν λόγω οδηγών, ο οποίος φέρεται να αποποιείται οποιωνδήποτε επαφών με τον Νορβηγό, καταγγέλοντάς τον ως "μη αυθεντικό φασίστα". Πιο συγκεκριμένα, ανέφερε ότι "δρα αποσπασματικά και όχι συλλογικά υπέρ της Τελικής Λύσης για τους μετανάστες καθώς μαζικές εκκαθαρίσεις, διοργανωμένες όμως συλλογικά από ΜΚΟ όπως η Χρυσή Αυγή, προσδίδουν υψηλό κύρος στο έργο αυτό σε αντίθεση με τις ενέργειες ενός μεμονωμένου ατόμου". Επίσης, πρόσθεσε με έμφαση ότι "Όταν, κρίνεται απαραίτητο να γίνει εμπρησμός π.χ. σε μια συναγωγή, πρέπει να τηρούνται όλες οι νομικές διατάξεις και οι κανόνες εμπλοκής και όχι να γίνονται παραβάσεις και παρατυπίες που δημιουργούν αλγεινές εντυπώσεις στην κοινή γνώμη και αμφιβολίες για το έργο μας και τον υψηλό σκοπό μας".

Die Meisterbanker von Frankfurt

Mr. Wolfgang Schäuble, the architect of the new model of economy for the European Union, draws the demarcation point for the authorization of the Eurozone 's national governments. Advancing even further than ECB and Bundesbank were dreaming of, now threatens directly every country faces financial problems that their usual local friends created.
He now states that the countries in trouble need to waive of their sovereignity. This is happening only after the successful accomplishment of a project where Greece surrendered its sovereignity by willingfully signing the Intercreditor Agreement in May 2010, carefully designed, edited and brought to be signed only to Schauble 's loyal puppet 's attention, the subservient Yorgos Papakonstantinou. This Loan Contract was created by an English lawyer company coming to prominence in the 80s and 90s on the saleout of the biggest state owned british companies under the Thatcher regime. The applicable right for any disputes ever occur will be the English law, a legal system known well for its flaws and ambiguity which favor the lending party.

Seems that the whole strategy is working well. As Europe and the US are constantly and irreversibly dragged to the loan markets' blackhole maelstrom by continuous lending that nobody anymore believes that will ever be paid off, just before the final dive to the abyss where the scavengers will lacerate the bodies once forming the nations' society and economy, like a gamma-ray burst, the governments and the banks are trying to take advantage of the complete mayhem to profiteer even this very moment. Until then, the kind of reassurements like "no citizens' deposits are in risk", "the country 's economy is slowly transitioning again to growth", "citizens have nothing to be afraid of" will resonate in the brain-washing news bulletins, while all facts emerging from the statistics and the real economy are denying them.
It seems we are watching a pathetic operetta. Frau Merkel, Monsieur Sarko, Trichet are starring and Yorgakis Papandreou, Zapatero, Coelho, Kenny and Berlusconi are the walk-outs. Mr. Schäuble is another disgusting shade in the colour pallette of the bankers/ministers alliance. Now, the masks have fallen. We distinguish them anymore. We know which thing represent one another and what are their intentions. I ask the German people to kick them out of ruling their lives, him and his supervisor.

The greek bailout, the controlled bankruptcy and the police brutality

My dear friends abroad, I wrote an email trying to explain the recent events (28-29 June in Greece) about the new Midterm Loan Agreement, the Applicational lawbill, the audacity, arrogance and corruption of the two ruling parties of the major political scene and the Amnesty International condemned riot police forces. Because of the length of the text, the demand and the people I have omitted to send, I transferred the text and the comments to my blog. The text is in english. My apologies for not translating to other languages being capable of (Bulgarian and French). Please translate it in your native language and forward it.

As known, on June 29th 2011, the greek government brought a new lawbill which delivers the sume of Greece 's assets to private hands. This option was included as a condition in the Loan Facilitation Contract of May 8th, 2011. This contract was signed by a mere one minister alone, ex-finance minister Yorgos Papakonstantinou and never being brought to the Parliament. According to the Constitution of Greece, this agreement should be ratified by a 3/5 enhanced majority of the greek MPs (180 minimum favoring votes required), as the article 28 of the Greek Constitution commands for agreements concerning the country 's national sovereignity. The replacing finance minister, Evangelos Venizelos, before being assigned to his new post, stated 15 days ago that this lawbill should be approved by a 180 votes enhanced majority, a statement that has refrained of, since ever. This enhanced majority ratification never happened. The complete unconstitutionality of this action can be seen on the condition:

"Neither the Borrower nor any of its property are immune on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from jurisdiction, attachment – whether before or after judgement – or execution in respect of any action or proceeding relating to the Agreement."
(Loan Facilitation Contract, Annex 4, §12, page 26)

For the Greek-speaking friends abroad, the unveiling interview of Yorgos Kassimatis, a reknown constitutional rights professor and former legal advisor of the Prime Minister, in which he describes the frauds of greek government:
1/3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiPGY9NBHsE
2/3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr6ahlNJvaw
3/3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqyKxyCP_oY

All these elaborations, in practice, mean that the borrowers, (every private "investor", international organization, crook, etc.), can confiscate every asset belonging to the state as compensation and withdrawal from the right of any legal appealing objection from the greek state side. No matter whether this is Acropolis, an ore mine, oil field, a fighterjet or a nice beach.
Nothing is immune of confiscation.
Of course, as anybody knows, a usurer never wants his borrower to pay off, as he can suck his savings continuously. The same applies now: Greece has not been squeezed yet. Why should an investor buy any public infrastructure now for i.e. 7 billion euros, while after the forthcoming bankruptcy could be sold for a single euro? Vultures are patient: they fly and wait until the animal below has died.
The EU/IMF/ECB anxiety about Greece 's bankruptcy is simply fake: when the country's economy will have been brought to a Third World country 's condition, no investment-evaluation company will be anxious of a "credit incident", disrupting and destabilizing the world market of money transferring that makes these companies live. Nobody cares if Mauritania declared bankruptcy. So will happen here. (No offence please to the hard-struggling people of the afore-mentioned country, it is just an example).

Dear friends, please don' t underestimate the dangers. Don 't be fooled by just assuming that Greece has been brought to this situation because of the corruption (a real factor), or people 's lazyness (a common stereotype for the southern europeans). These are small parts of the equation. We can see what happened to Iceland and Ireland, previously gloryfied by the international evaluation companies and praised by the financial newspapers as "heavens for investments". They were previously referred as paradeigms for prosperity and wealth as "celtic tigers", "Nordic tigers", while blaiming them as dumb-headed crooks and drunkards on the next day. The world 's bankers and capitalists can easily throw whole countries in the junk, when less profit is expected than forecasted.
Greece is the first field of experimentation, an international capital's plans of a "pilot episode" in Europe for paving a way for more countries to follow, the ones with the weakest economies first.
I recommend the reading of Naomi Klein 's book "The Shock Doctrine" and Avi Lewis' subsequent documentary (6 parts), a couple of Canadian Jews and activists, as a robust and revealing reference for the IMF 's and World Bank 's interventions in the developing countries.

Concluding, the greek government has no constitutional right of applying such a "colonisation" lawbill that undermines the country 's future for at least one or two generations. This government has to step down, and both its members ("PASOK" - so called "socialists"), together with the leading opposition party ("Nea Dimokratia" - rightwings / conservatives) to be brought to justice for their irresponsible financial management of the last decades. They are illegal, they offend the Constitution, they are traitors, they are puppets of their powerful friends and bosses. NO, THIS COUNTRY IS NOT FOR SALE. NO COUNTRY OF THE WORLD IS FOR SALE. It is forbidden by the 1969 Vienna Convention.


Regarding the unprecended riots and unbelievable police brutality that took place in the greater Athens historical centre on Wednesday, June 29th:

Given the size of the gathered crowd, the numerous squads of the riot police (MAT) were beating indescretely and posing a continuous threat for the the security of peacefully protesting common people in the Square. The stewards (demonstration marshals) proved too few and unexperienced to cope with hordes of fascists, neo-nazis, police agents provocateurs, and individual vandals storming the Square 's plateau, the demonstrators' camp and the shops neighbouring the Square. After that, the police started raiding the whole historical centre by brutally attacking almost everybody looking like "youngster", "demostrator" or even tourist, by parading on motorbikes and throwing shock grenades and teargas over the Monastiraki area and even attacking and beating people inside the Acropolis metro station, just next to the Acropolis Museum, almost one kilometer away of the Syntagma Square. This is simply unbelieavable. Not even under the '67-'74 military junta was there a beatup like this.
Of course the government has given certain orders to the police leaders and don 't give a damn whether the center of the city was like a warzone. No officials resignations, nothing. Everything is OK.
In the weekend, the Socialist International, presided by Yorgos Papandreou with current members guys like Bill Clinton and former members dictators like Tunisia 's Ben Ali, Egypt 's Hoshni Mubarak and Libya 's Moammar Ghedaffi, is conferencing in Asteras, one of the most luxurius hotels of the country, despite the crisis.
