Over the last 12 months or more Greece has seen wave after wave of mass demonstrations, riots, battles between police and protesters, armed attacks on Government premises, attacks by fascists (i.e. Golden Dawn ) on migrants, as well as, of course, the complete collapse of the economy. The Government has been beset by scandals (e.g. secret bank accounts in Switzerland) and journalists have been arrested. Most people now exist day by day via co-operatives ; workers are taking over the factories .

As we have said, there is a revolution taking place – a messy revolution . And it’s going to get messier, for the situation in Greece has now entered a critical phase – here is a summary (with further details below):

* Strategy of tension has already commenced
* Government is under siege and is protected by mercenaries
* Military coup is now talked of openly
* Insider warns that revolution (or counter-revolution) is imminent

Strategy of tension

A few days ago we reported on a plot by the police in collusion with the far-right to instigate a massacre of police, which would then be blamed on anarchists – presumably this would then be used as an excuse to introduce martial law or a state of emergency. The plot may have been foiled (23 persons were arrested) by Blackwater working in conjunction with police officers who are loyal to the Government. Blackwater are expected to continue monitoring police operations generally, to identify those officers who may be involved in other, similar plots.

If either the far right wins, or the far left beats them and wins, the result is the same; a nice gaping hole in the EU, and then the Euro itself.

I think Greece may be a preview of Collapse, USA. The debt based monetary ponzi scheme is running out of fodder; that is why the Fed is printing non-stop.

Hope to hell I'm wrong, natch...

As Plutonomic states sometimes end very badly for its Plutonomists. They've been infiltrating government positions via "tea party" candidates, harming "one person, one vote" with Citizens United (and are apparently going for a round 2 on it), using ALEC to create laws without citizens getting to vote about them, and they most certainly called down the power upon the Occupy movement (they list their main fear as being people demanding income equality), as well as using the purchased media to both ignore and demonize the movement...bet your ass they've got plans for collapse. Militarization of the police, drone bases inside the US, DHS making law enforcement their puppets via iWatch, the list goes on.

But economic collapse ends Plutonomies, according to the memo, so there's a bright side

Unless they are paying out of their personal hordes, they deserve everything that's coming to them.

If they are paying out of their own pocket, they should get the hell out, because the game is over.
