Syriza ...
Seems like the feces is about to hit the swiftly rotating object over there ... particularly in Brussels ... not to mention Berlin. And an interesting alliance in Athens: the left and the right united in their peeoffidness about austerity ... or whatever the German word for that is. And rumblings in Spain ... Podemos.
And the symbolism of the wreath laying ... at the tomb of 200 Greek patriots shot by the Germans. So ... (has anyone else noticed that most folks now begin most of their sentences with "So":confused:) I decided to read a little bit about the German occupation of Greece ... 'nuff said. Personally, with my distant perspective ... I see a Shiite Tsunami on the way ... heading, hopefully, heading for Berlin, with a stop on the way at Brussels. |

I'm wondering what effect this will have on those in the UK who support a re-negotiation of Britain's membership in the EU. And also on those politicians who support Britain's remaining in the Union. I think we should remember that there are many in Greece who remember the German occupation, either at first hand, or learned from their parents. It must be hard on them to take diktats from Berlin. |

I'm in the mood for a bit of Tracy chapman :D
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2wneBVssPc Do I think the UK will follow suite? Hmmm [Accyexplorer pauses with thoughts of "plebs" in power]. What I find exciting is their going to cancel EU conditions,I'd like to be a fly on the wall in that meeting :D |

Naziland must have been quite a big country with a lot of people but you won't find it on a map. Even in 1945 a documentary made from film taken by UK,USA and USSR photographers of what the Allied Armies found when they went into the Concentration Camps was deemed too sensitive to be shown- apparently it might have upset or offended the Germans, suggesting they were involved. A Channel 4 programme last Saturday(Holocaust:Night will Fall) showed some of it- shocking, unbelievable. Still on the internet. |
Re: Syriza ...
So in the 50s the Greeks fought a Communist take over ("Nazi's") and now (after years of overspending and poor management) they're embracing communism....
....Hmmm smells like a conspiracy :D |

Positive things may come out of cancelling debt. It's worthwhile making the point that the economic recovery of West Germany began in the early 50s, '53 is my non-google guess, when the allies cancelled the bulk of that country's debt. |
Re: Syriza ...
What's the odds on Germany being the last country standing if (and 'when') the EU collapses :D

Well, it's only money, I suppose the European Bank can just print some more. Interesting to see how Berlin( sorry, Brussels) fudge their way out of this one. |

By the way: Auschwitz survivors, world leaders mark 70th anniversary of camp's liberation - World - CBC News Damn kikes; they take a little thing like the final solution, and make a federal case out of it. Enough already. I've noticed that when AccyWebers discuss crime and punishment, especially after some particularly horrendous crime, the majority are outraged that the punishment the perp will get is far too lenient. They want blood and retribution. I think you can all see where this is going ... so, I won't waste space elaborating. But it is worth making the point that what pees the Greeks off is not only the austerity, but who is imposing it. By the way, if you have a lot of time on your hands and don't mind wading through pages of well-researched facts and figures, the following is a good read: "Hitler's Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust" by Daniel Jonah Goldhagen. Of course, some will look at the author's name and conclude that it's just part of the Great Hebe Conspiracy.:rolleyes: |
