The euro-clowns in total denial: they pretend that Rutte's victory is an approval of current Europe

Despite the sirens around them, the euro-clowns still live in their own world. They believe that they can get away with it. That they can fool people forever. Well, it won't happen. Europe has already entered the path of no return. When they will realize what's really happening, it will be too late.


Statements from the European political establishment after Rutte's victory, show that the puppets of the bankers and lobbyists are completely detached from reality and from the European people. The statements of relief by Merkel and Schulz, expose their high anxiety about the possibility of losing one of Germany's most faithful satellites in the hard-core of the sado-monetarist prison of eurozone.

All the mainstream media of the plutocrats together with their puppets, i.e. the current European political establishment, nearly celebrated, giving the impression that Rutte's victory is an approval of current Europe by the Dutch people, as well as, by the European people.

First of all, little reference made to the fact that Rutte lost power compared to the previous elections (8 seats less), while the leader of the Far-Right, Geert Wilders, actually gained 5 seats. Also, especially after the final results, everyone forgot that Rutte managed to hold the first position thanks to the show that gave together with Recep Tayyip Erdogan right before the election.

The European establishment mechanisms obviously panicked seeing Wilders leading the race until the last minute and tried to present the hard victory of Rutte as an approval of current Europe by the Dutch people. The mainstream media presented the result as an issue concerning exclusively the rejection of Far-Right extreme rhetoric and politics, while in reality, the Dutch people gave priority in other issues like labor rights, welfare state, which the neoliberal establishment is trying to eliminate across Europe. Probably the best proof for this argument, is the impressive rise of the GreenLeft that gained 10 seats. Yet, little mention was made about this significant success since the epicenter of the election was the fight between Rutte and Wilders.

Furhtermore, the Labour Party suffered a devastated loss of 29 seats (!) compared to the previous elections. Recall that Jeroen Dijsselbloem, member of the party, participated as Minister of Finance in the previous Rutte cabinet. Dijsselbloem, is one of the most devoted to the current neoliberal status. Being also president of the eurogroup and president of the Board of Governors of the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) he followed faithfully the German hard stance against Greece, joined the close team of people who forced the country towards the path of hell that destroyed the Greek economy since the beginning of the crisis, in order to save the Franco-German banks.

Such kind of 'details' simply ignored by the mainstream media because they want to present every Pyrrhic victory of their favorite politicians as an approval by the citizens of the current status.

Similarly, the Brexit vote was attributed exclusively to the voters attracted by the nationalists who grow the racism and xenophobia, while in reality, Brexit prevailed due to a critical mass of voters, even of progressive origins, who wanted to protest against what Europe has become: a corrupted empire taken over by the bankers and lobbyists who dictate their own interests against the vast majority of the European people.

Yanis Varoufakis supported recently that he made thirteen speeches in thirteen cities of England, Wales and Scotland, against Brexit. He had thousands of people in the audience. In every place he went, people told him that they agree with most of what he pointed. Yet, the central argument by them was 'how is it possible to vote for the UK to remain in the EU, seeing the way that Brussels and Frankfurt treated Greece?'

Despite the sirens around them, the euro-clowns still live in their own world. They believe that they can get away with it. That they can fool people forever. Well, it won't happen. Europe has already entered the path of no return. When they will realize what's really happening, it will be too late.

  1. Yes, the results are due to disillusionment with the "left" (pvda), plus a hope & change campaign by GL, which got most of its voters from the pvda, plus the erdogan pissing contest.
    But fiscally conservative, "Pro-EU" parties got 70% of the vote (and note that that includes a fair share of the PvdA, which mostly represents yuppie interests as well). So long-term, this outcome will only contribute to the EU's demise, because more can-kicking, more denial, more austerity.

Israel’s Descent Into Madness & the Holocaust Comparison

BreakThrough News   Rania Khalek was joined by Tarik Cyril Amar, a historian from Germany and associate professor at Koc University in Istanbul, to discuss Israel’s descent into genocidal fascism. Prof. Amar addresses whether it’s useful to make Holocaust and Nazi comparisons and the real reason behind the West’s unshakeable loyalty attitude when it comes to Israel’s barbarism.   

Zionist and US imperialist criminals are about to grab the natural gas off shore Gaza

globinfo freexchange   As the genocide against Palestinians of Gaza is about to be completed with an act of unprecedented brutality by the Zionists and butcher Netanyahu through the bombardment of about 1.4 million civilians in Rafah, it seems that they have already set their next primary goal. Which, in short, is to grab the natural gas resources off shore Gaza, together with their US imperialist buddies whose contribution to the genocide has been undoubtedly critical.     As already reported , in 2007, Hamas came to power and Israel launched an offensive on Gaza Strip, leaving behind 1,400 dead Palestinians, but taking with it the gas fields. Within a year, Israel announced the discovery of the Leviathan natural gas field, which did include Gaza's riches, valued at 453 billion dollars. But Gazans have been denied around 47 billion dollars in revenue. As for Tel Aviv, it's gunning to become a new hub. At that moment in time, that is 2022, Russian oil and gas were sanctioned.

Τυχαία γεγονότα στην τριτοκοσμική μπανανία των Βαλκανίων

failed evolution   1) Συμβαίνει το μεγαλύτερο σιδηροδρομικό δυστύχημα στην ιστορία της χώρας. 2) Γίνεται αστραπιαία επιχείρηση μοντάζ των συνομιλιών του σταθμάρχη από μηχανισμό του καθεστώτος, πριν ακόμα φτάσει στα χέρια των αρχών, προκειμένου να αποδοθεί η τραγωδία αποκλειστικά σε ανθρώπινο λάθος και να βγουν από το κάδρο οι πολιτικές ευθύνες ανώτατων κυβερνητικών αξιωματούχων. 3) Αναπαράγεται το παραποιημένο υλικό αστραπιαία από ναυαρχίδα της καθεστωτικής προπαγάνδας. 4) Τοποθετείται επικεφαλής στην επιτροπή-παρωδία πρωτοπαλίκαρο του καθεστώτος Μητσοτάκη που εργάζονταν παλιά στην ίδια αυτή ναυαρχίδα. 5) Η επιτροπή κλείνει άρον-άρον την υπόθεση αποκλείοντας ουσιώδεις μάρτυρες που είχαν προειδοποιήσει επανειλημμένα τον αρμόδιο υπουργό για τον κίνδυνο μεγάλου δυστυχήματος. Σταματάει έτσι και η όποια σε βάθος διερεύνηση για την τσιμεντοποίηση του χώρου και την απόπειρα συγκάλυψης της τραγωδίας.

του system failure   Τα αποτελέσματα των εκλογών της 25ης Ιουνίου ήταν λίγο-πολύ αναμενόμενα όσον αφορά τις πρώτες θέσεις με βάση και τα αποτελέσματα της πρώτης κάλπης του Μαίου. Αν συμπεριλάβουμε και το ποσοστό της αναμενόμενης αποχής, δεν μας έδωσαν κάποια ιδιαίτερη έκπληξη. Αυτό όμως που φαίνεται να αιφνιδίασε ακόμα και το συστημικό κατεστημένο, είναι η είσοδος των δύο υπερσυντηρητικών, ακροδεξιών κομμάτων Νίκη και Σπαρτιάτες, με το τελευταίο να έχει ξεκάθαρες διασυνδέσεις με τον πρώην Χρυσαυγίτη, Ηλία Κασιδιάρη. Παρά τη μεγάλη νίκη Μητσοτάκη, οι μιντιακοί ινστρούχτορες της καθεστωτικής προπαγάνδας εμφανίστηκαν σε γενικές γραμμές "μουδιασμένοι" και αυτό οφείλεται στο γεγονός ότι το συστημικό κατεστημένο (δηλαδή τα μεγάλα οικονομικά συμφέροντα που ελέγχουν και το σύνολο των μεγάλων ΜΜΕ πανελλαδικής εμβέλειας), πέτυχε μόνο έναν από τους τέσσερις μεγάλους στόχους που είχε θέσει εξ'αρχής.

The Shadowy, Intelligence-Linked Group Driving the US Towards War With Iran

"United Against Nuclear Iran does not miss an opportunity to try to bring the United States closer to a military conflict with Iran. And on the other side of the equation, they also have worked very hard to oppose efforts to de-escalate the U.S.-Iran relationship."   by Alan Macleod   Part 7 - A Lesson From History   The history of Iran has been intimately intertwined with the United States since at least 1953 when Washington orchestrated a successful coup against Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh. Mosaddegh had refused U.S. demands to stamp out Communist influences in his country and had nationalized the nation’s oil. The U.S. installed Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as a puppet ruler. An unpopular and authoritarian ruler, the Shah was overthrown in the Revolution of 1979. Since then, it has become a target for regime change, and its nuclear program is something of an obsession in the West. Often orchestrated by UANI officials while they were in government, the U.S. has carried
