The new European Feudalism is here!

by system failure

The whole sequence of events during the last months, concerning the negotiations between Greece and its creditors, shows that democracy in the European continent has died and replaced by a new type of Feudalism. What we knew until now was that the main political powers in Europe over the last decades, which are the Right-wing populist parties and the Social-democrats, were completely under control by the financial oligarchy and the corporate lobbyists.

The inevitable corruption of these political parties because of their long presence in power, together with the radical financialization of the economy, were key factors for their mutation towards the neoliberal doctrine. Progressively, these politicians realized that they couldn't control a system that it has been deregulated to a great extent by them, under the pressure of the lobbyists. Consequently, they were forced to deliver nearly every decision center to the technocrats.

The SYRIZA Leftists in Greece in essence thought that they could take back most of the power that it was delivered to unelected institutions. They discovered, in short time, that the political power in Europe has been eliminated already and that the Euro-parliament has become only a decorating element inside a powerful network of political puppets and technocrats.

From this point of view, Tsipras' surrender to this monstrous network was inevitable. The way that the European bureaufascists treated Greece, with the financial institutions at the top, was characteristic. They overthrew barriers (like Varoufakis) and threatened directly to cut liquidity, after they destroyed the Greek economy so that to make sure that Greece would be totally dependent on Draghi's liquidity injections. So, they now ask from Greece to sell-off everything and destroy what is left from the labor rights and the social state. The European and mostly the German big capital has already colonized the countries-satellites of Germany and now seeks to be expanded to the eurozone periphery.

If we look back in time, we could see a series of processes that took place, resembling a well-organized plan.

First, whole "factories" of specific rhetoric were built in a pan-European level to normalize and finally eliminate any differences between the main political powers, and prepare the public for the radical changes that would come. A rhetoric that was shaped also by the mainstream media mouthpieces and dominated by various forms of Thatcherian "TINAs".

After that, the politicians were progressively delivered the power to the unelected financial institutions, while loading the states with more debt through the excessive borrowing inside the financialized bubble economies. When the crisis hit the eurozone, Greece and other indebted states were forced to take the most cruel neoliberal measures to receive liquidity which was already under the total control of the European Central Bank.

In the final stage, Greece is being used as the model for the dystopian Europe of the future. In this phase of the experiment, the logic is simple: bureaufascists present false success stories for other countries, so that to point the finger to Greece and prevent an unexpected massive reaction, blaming the country for not making the "reforms" they want. Hypocritically say that Greece must fight the corruption and the tax fraud, while in reality they do not care at all. In fact, it is convenient for them to retain corruption in Greece as an excuse to impose their "reforms" concerning only what is necessary to establish the new Feudalism.

After the successful completion of the experiment in Greece, as they hope, they will discover again problems in the other countries so that to force them to follow the Greek path that it will be presented as a hopeful example, despite the certain destruction of the Greek economy under the final measures. Propaganda will be launched in full force. We've heard already by the mainstream media recently that the Greek economy "surprisingly" returned to growth! It really sounds like a joke, but it was the first signal for the new narratives to come.

So, there you have it: parliamentary processes have been abolished and all the public property of the eurozone colonies is about to fall in the oligarchs' hands. How do you call that?

Despite this, the war has just started. SYRIZA may have been defeated in Greece, but the European Financial Dictatorship was also completely exposed. And above all, the Greek people marked a significant victory by voting very clearly against the catastrophic measures in the latest referendum, despite all the blackmail with the closed banks and the propaganda of terror by the mainstream media.

The next crucial battlefield: the elections in Portugal, Spain and probably Greece. It is a good chance for the people in those countries to get rid of the old corrupt political system and start a new battle forming a united front.

  1. I suppose the more interesting question is when to date this-Thatcher is not the begining-was Wall Street backing Hitler the start? If not, was the decision to create a Common Market the start? The creation of an EU was commented on by former Soviet dissidents as being a worse form of the USSR. I think the agenda goes back some years, it reasonably could go back to the creation of the Federal Reserve and World War I. How fascinating that Trotsky and Lenin were both financed by Germans. The quip by Reagan always comes to mind-the right hand does not know what the far right hand is doing.

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.

Το σκάσιμο της φούσκας Μητσοτάκη με νέα επίσημη χρεοκοπία και οριστικό τέλος της μεταπολίτευσης

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. Μιλώντας με ποδοσφαιρικούς όρους, ουσιαστικά έχασε με σκορ 3-1.   Ο μεγάλος στόχος πο

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
