‘So Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy have got rid of the prime ministers of Greece and Italy within a few days of each other. It’s very remarkable that two politicians can take it upon themselves to throw out of office the democratically elected prime ministers in other countries where they themselves have no vote. They sacked George Papandreou and Silvio Berlusconi in exactly the way that the man in the Kremlin used to dismiss first secretaries or Party bosses in satellite republics. The moment Papandreou proposed to call a referendum he was doomed. Ask the people what they want? The very idea of it! Greece and Italy are now German protectorates…’ source

Both have been (or are about to be ) replaced by unelected EU functionaries. Next to fall will be Spain.
This has all been driven by the “Frankfurt Group” – Angela Merkel, Christine Lagarde, Nicolas Sarkozy, Mario Draghi, José Manuel Barroso, Jean-Claude Juncker, Herman van Rompuy and Olli Rehn, with external input from Barack Obama.

“Lagarde joined Baker & McKenzie, a large Chicago-based international law firm, in 1981. She handled major antitrust and labor cases, was made partner after six years and was named head of the firm in Western Europe. She joined the executive committee in 1995 and was elected the company’s first ever female Chairman in October 1999.[18][19][20] In 2004, Lagarde became president of the global strategic committee.[21]
Her personal interest in European affairs led her to open the European Law Centre, an office of Baker & McKenzie in Brussels exclusively dedicated to the practice of European Union law.”

Is this another Chicago connection?

Great article. Thanks for the link Mawm.
Nothing new here – the map of Europe is looking very much like it did at the height of Nazi power.
Yugoslavia has been dismembered into seven statelets , Czechoslovakia also, now the Czech republic and Slovakia – watch for Belgium to break into two, Wallonia and Flanders – its on the way.
Small little states, not viable on their own and hence easier for their masters to rule over.
The EU population, we are now Slaves rowing ships around the mediterranean. Democracy is dead, if it ever existed. Is there a reason to vote as you can choose between Bilderberg, Bilderberg, Bilderberg or Bilderberg. Long live the Kings.

Is there a difference between a bird cage and an aviary. In both places the birds are safe have free food and health care and in both places they’ll never be free.
An aviary just gives the illusion of freedom. But it is the bird keeper who decides. He is God.

If a business has been incompetently managed to the point where it is about to go into receivership and the management goes to a Bank for a loan to enable the business to survive, the Bank may require as a condition of lending the money that the incompetent manager is replaced. Why should that be any different for a country?
Because countries are not businesses. Because the people have no say in how the financial affairs of the country are run, yet it’s the ordinary people who ultimately pay the price for the crony capitalism, mismanagement and corruption of the ruling class.
and because there’s a vast fucking difference between sacking an incompetent business manager of a private company and removing the democratically elected head of a supposedly free country.
If you can’t see the difference, I suggest you stay away from sharp objects and mains electrical devices.
If the head of a country is elected democratically the people, by definition, have a say in how the country is run. In the case of Greece the people eagerly accepted the benefits provided by the State, which were paid for by borrowing and rioted in protest at the suggestion that these benefits may be reduced.
Anyway haven’t you heard of the golden rule? He who has the gold makes the rules. Germany has the money that Greece needs to survive and simply imposed some conditions on the loan to ensure that the loan would be repaid. Greece has got off quite lightly. In the past nations have sent their armies in to invade defaulting countries to ensure repayment of loans.

To mourn the loss of Greek and Italian sovereignty now is silly. These countries dilutated their soveriegn powers when they joined the EU. This is the same process as when a country joins the UN. Sickening isn’t it?
The populations of Greece and Italy subjected themselves to their current predicaments by firstly joining the EU then by spending up as though there’s no tomorrow. I have zero sympathy for them.
Fair enough, but bear in mind that the ordinary citizens had stuff-all say in it. Several governments and the EU have repeatedly ignored “no” votes in referenda concerning the EU (Maastricht Treaty etc) and the UK’s Cameron simply flat-out lied and denied the Brits a promised referendum on the subject.
It ain’t the people, it’s the politicians and bureaucrats and Eurocrats. And they’re immune to any sanctions.
It is a bit “chicken and egg.” The general population spent liberally as no doubt the politicians did so. The deficit thus created is the product of both general and individual profligacy.
(they may not be immune to pitchforks and torches though, if the whole thing blows up)
