(Reuters) - Greece's conservative leader began a frantic hunt on Monday for partners to forge a coalition that protects the country's place in the euro zone after angry voters savaged the two ruling parties for imposing harsh wage and spending cuts.

President Karolos Papoulias summoned New Democracy party leader Antonist Samaras to talks at 8:00 a.m. EDT (1200 GMT), where he is expected to be given a mandate to try and form a new government - a daunting task given the strong electoral showing of anti-bailout parties.

Greeks woke up to headlines like "Country in Limbo" from the Imerisia newspaper and "Nightmare of Ungovernability" in the Ta Nea daily.


"I'm hopeful but also scared," said 36-year-old Sofia Tsaliki, an office clerk. "New elections won't bring anything, but at least we are giving a message to the politicians and Europeans that they need to take proper notice and cannot ignore us anymore."

Don't be scared, Sofia. When we're afraid, the terrorists win.

The global media, aka the propaganda arm of the 1%, are doing their very best to spread terror.

1. Well they're never missing the opportnity to

1, Constantly refer to the Syriza leader as a Radical Leftist
2. Talk about how the Golden Dawn (a neo-Nazi Party) opposes the austerity program -- a broken clock is right twice a day and New Dawn is correct about this
3. That the austerity loans will dry up

And they never mention how well Iceland is doing after they rejected the austerity BS

2. I would be interested to know how many times people on Gore's network mention Iceland.

3. Last I was reading in the papers, Greece was in a state of near-revolt.

4. Every state that had to empty its treasury to bail out the same people who

had bankrupted its citizens to begin with should be in a state of revolt.
