    Don’t overlook the two times the Irish were polled about changes necessary to their constitution to accommodate both Nice and Lisbon Treaties and were obliged to vote again to obtain the correct result. At least the Netherlands and France were allowed to avoid the shameful necessity of reversing their votes, but Ireland is so small that doesn’t count.

    Best of luck and fortune to Greece, may the wind be at your back and your road eased …

    And now we hear Greeks are being paid to protest FOR austerity! You can’t make this up. Classic repeat of Venezuela, which didn’t work, Ukraine, which didn’t work, and Hong Kong, which didn’t work. Let’s try it here! Yes, I can see it now:

    “What do we want? Less!! When do we want it? Now!”
    “2, 4, 6, 8, We will not recuperate!”
    “Say no to income, no to pensions!”

    The IMF and EU deals were always lethal of course, as demonstrated by a sister country, Ukraine. Ukraine, which likewise violates every EU and IMF rule, mandate, and constitution, including not funding war zones, not funding military coups, and only lending to solvent nations, didn’t need to ask or negotiate to get all the money they needed. Now they are being ordered to default on their creditors (Russia, of course). Nothin’. Not a hint of self-awareness crosses anyone’s mind. Not enough remaining sense shame of hypocrisy to even hide or spin it. Doesn’t even occur. The one thing they have in common, of course, is that the IMF uses their billions to savage, impoverish, and murder both peoples. As they have all along, everywhere they’ve ever been. Google “IMF successes” and you’ll find basically zero, none, nada, ever in their long and checkered history. Greece is not an accident. Every country that has ever followed IMF advice has languished in crippling debt, eternally subservient to colonial powers. Those that refused or shake off the IMF method quickly recover. Funny coincidence, no? You can find out more by reading John Perkins.

    With a 50 year history of 100% death and failure, 0% help, so easily researched and proven, I’m at a loss to why every nation doesn’t publish exactly the Greek Special Committee conclusions which states

    “the Committee considers that Greece has been and still is the victim of an attack premeditated and organized by the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank, and the European Commission. This violent, illegal, and immoral mission aimed exclusively at shifting private debt onto the public sector.”

    Why they don’t just report and repeat this every day, before every meeting, at every press conference, until the world finally gets it through their petrified skulls, I don’t know. Protecting the lies is protecting the liars. It’s high time somebody told the truth before we drown.

    There was never any real trust, only a premeditated nihilistic agreement based upon deceit by the NWO globalists whose goal has always been and always will be destruction of individual nations and abolition of the rule of law so that ultimately the unworthy will be mere subhumans crawling at the feet of the chose few. And of course the other nations sooner or later will find themselves in the position of Greece. One can only hope that the extreme hubris of TPTB will be counterproductive and instill in the middle classes a better understanding of the current precarious state of civilization.

    You are no Dr. you bring discredit to that honorific appellation, given to those who actually earn such through their intellectual efforts. You disgrace the intelligence of the human species.

    The world as known is dying. For those who have eyes to see and minds to know, the evidence is mounting daily. But you insist on your mindless word games and spew your intellectual sewage at every opportunity, to mislead, to confuse, to dissemble, to obfuscate, to misdirect, to spread untruths which may be as little as hidden facts to the contrary of your opinions. You are a pure shit, one can only wonder how much the Koch brothers are subsidising your existence. Why don’t you take your bilge and spew it from your own site – the answer would be that there would be so little traffic as to make it worthless, so reveals your presence here.

    It is notable that your efforts here at TAE, with precious few exception involve links to productions you have ‘found’ that support your ‘opinions’ though rarely found within accredited sources. These especially constructed tracts are almost always professionally produced, costing someone a dear penny, but curiously never having neither who produced nor who financed the production. That is the modus operandi of the Koch’s subvention against a once democratic state, a war they have won with the help of ignorant fools as yourself. Please tell us how it feels to have lived your life without an original idea ever crossing your mind? Is it pleasant? Or does it leave an empty feeling? Come on and tell us, you are so facile with rattling the letters on your keyboard, telling others of your opinion at every turn. You are still a shit.

    It is curious your use of Dr. as if just the presence of that symbol of earned excellence would give your presentations a validity that would not be questioned – like Dr. Goebbels. What institute issued your Doctorate? What accreditation does that institute have? Or are those things made up as well? Do tell us about yourself, your accomplishments, your expertise, your raison d’être, or are you actually low scum, barely of stature to be accorded bipedal recognition, a fraud, a creature from the black cesspool of self deceit, a floating turd.

    Addendum link:

    https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-33209548

    which identifies three universities issuing the report as well as a forth that had made the same report earlier as BBC’s sources – if links are needed for credibility.
