The government is playing its last cards False flag terrorist attacks!

Yesterday, an explosive device with a time trigger was discovered on a train of Athens subway. Its time trigger was set so that the hit would create significant casualties.

Actions like these are directly related to the establishment trying to keep itself in a position of control by creating instability and chaos. This would allow the political powers (who have nearly no political legitimacy and huge dissent against them) to activate special provisions of the Constitution in order to decrease individual liberties, increase censorship, eliminate expressions of dissent and, ultimately, increase their authoritarian powers.

There have been three efforts to kill people through supposed acts of anti-authoritarian people. The first was on the demonstrations of 12th February when buildings were burned. The second was a few days ago when bank ATMs where set on fire. These ATMs where located on the ground level of multi-story buildings with many people living on those buildings. Now we have the subway attack - aimed directly at people.

It is "interesting" that all the so called anti-authoritarian attacks do not target authority like politicians but rather private buildings and people. This makes it extremely easy to understand what this is all about: Inside job / acts of provocation that will then be used as justification for activating the dictatorial provisions of the Constitution. Something like a Greek 9/11 so to speak, but on a smaller scale, and with many "destabilizing" incidents.

The establishment is really afraid of what the people will do as the 25th of March anniversary is approaching. It has two main choices:

a) Go to elections - present the PSI deal as a success and try to frighten people to vote them again - which they wont.
b) Stay in power through these destabilizing provocations and the activation of special provisions of the Constitution.

Judging by the look of things, they are opting for (b).

News of the last few days

a) January-June fiscal results:

The government claims that it is exceeding its expectations in reducing the deficit. However, this is only logistical. Increase of tax income is only in 7% and the goal was 13%. What the government is doing to keep deficit in check is not executing the budget in terms of expenses (!). The government is not paying or delays various salaries, internal debts etc plus it has cut down 3 billion from the public investment program.

So deficit is only achieved by not executing properly the expenses.

b) Political mutations:

With the left coalition of SYRIZA collapsing between its internal constituents, a new party is arising (Democratic Left) with mr Kouvelis as the leader. On the right, Mpakoyianni is trying to create a new right party after being separated with the main right party (New Democracy).

c) More taxes and pension reform:

More taxes have been activated (VAT 23% instead of 21% and pension reform has been voted.

d) In real-term economics:

A lot of small-mid businesses are bailing out of the market. The pressure is enormous. There are various quite commercial streets where you can see 10 or 20 shops in close proximity closed. A lot of ordinary people is facing problems in paying their taxes, their insurance or their everyday expenses. On top of that theres the pressure for the loan debts and theres been a constant stream of suicides (>400 per year).

e) Greece-Turkey

There has been a lot of tension lately, including oil research in the Aegean (by Turkey) which traditionally has been a point of extreme tension. Theres also tension through various incidents including airplanes/helicopters/ships, war exercises, rescue operations etc. The Greek side is generally diffusing / downgrading the tension.
