Debt is the new form of slavery. It was the central banks and those in governments they control that are responsible for creating the economic crisis in the countries of the West. The very same banks that created the crisis loan their fiat money to the people of these countries to enslave them. In Europe it’s the Troika, in the United States it’s the privately owned Federal Reserve, in England it is the privately owned Bank Of England. Political leaders working with these central banks have sacrificed the sovereignty of their countries, even to the point of allowing their countries to be ruled by technocrats, many of them ex-bankers – Papademos is just one example. Countries in the West are ultimately to be controlled by bankers for bankers.   As one person recently pointed out, “the aim of the bankers is to demolish the hard won rights of people in the so-called democratic world.” Stealing the rights of the citizens, along with reducing them to poverty, will remove one of the great enemies of these criminals: the middle class. This destabilization of Western economies is working in tandem with the destabilization of NAM countries that, among other things, wish to be independent and free of the control of these international banke rs and the puppet regimes they plant to gain control of the valuable resources of each country.

IFO Germany: The economy of Greece cant stand any more austerity (without a revolution) so perhaps it should quit the EURO sooner rather than later. Others agree like President Putin. Its all over bar the shouting. Rich Greeks have shipped out and own smart town houses in London Paris and Geneva.

Perhaps its a very uncomfortable fact that there was a leader who decided that Europe was a complete basket case and that it needed a dictator to impose rules to make it function better. His answer was utterly ruthless as respects the communists model. His solution had certain unpleasant attachments. His racial beliefs were unpardonable. However he considered that Europeans were incapable of just being nice to each other. His name was Adolf Hitler. Europe today is ungovernable and full of misfits. Only Germany today has developed an advanced economy. If only Germany ruled Europe it might make a bit more sense.

The AUSTERITY is BULLSHEISER and a FRAUD on all the people of Europe. The Bankers must pay for their losses themselves.
Also the unelected officials in Brussels that make up the TROIKA including the FINANCIAL Terrorists at the IMF also should be thrown in the CLINK.

For many generations people in other countries did not buy a car or a house until they saved enough money to pay in full for that item!  Come the consumerism society of THE MONEY LENDERS, who introduced such scheme, making it possible for an average guy to buy a car with nothing down.  Once the stuff hit the fan, the entire country owes its existence now to the Anglo-Saxon bankers.  No jobs to make payments on the new cars, and no taxes coming in to the government to pay the retired.  Very similar to the USA, except, we can print money because we use dollars, and Greece cannot because they are controlled by Germany the top dog in the EU.

Plenty of conflicting opinions here-But 2 things stick out-1 This World depression was caused by the World Banksters in their greed for more profit 2 Whether you love or hate the Greeks they give the rest of the World a "showing up" in their fierce resentment and uprising in not willing to accept having to pay for the Bankers evil works.Its time the US 99% did the same.

Merkel is a Puppet of the Bankers and she has handed the keys of the Chicken coop to the Foxes aka the BANKSTERS.
German y will eventually sink 90% because soon the chains of slavery will be broken in a united Europe.

It is only obvious that the fascists will take it to the limit as far as exploiting the people. What the fascists don't know is that their days are  numbered! Souther n Europe is about to start a communist revolu tion that will be embraced in  the whole world!

99.9% of talk is a waste of time.  Greece cannot get out of this.   And this "write-off" is comical.   Basica lly, with every "package" of  "help",  Greece has MORE not LESS debt.  They must take on debt to pay debt, but with each cycle, there is just more debt added to the old.  Austerity, or even selling everything Greece owns -- will not discharge the debt.   In fact, the worthless papers "bankers' were selling to the world, including litte Greece,  is the 1000 lb gorilla that nobody is talking about.   Now,  banks will keep on coming back until there is no money to be had, and until there is no more leverage to be added to any economy in the world.   They have mortgaged America to the hilt, and Britain and Japan.  They are now in the process of taking what can be taken from France and Germany -- all in the name of "helping" Greece, Spain, whoever.    In fact, there is not enough money in the world, not enough resources, assets or even humans for sale -- to provide enough collateral for the worthless papers that some have created, pulled in REAL money, and left us with the gargabe in banks's vaults.   The politicians think we can appease the worhless paper octopus.  No such luck.  The problem is, the octopus just needs to grow, or else it implodes.

This story has been recently reported:  Possibly in receiving the World War Two reparations (damages), that Greece is able to get from Germany, will they be able to re-employ everyone in Greece...

Could this be true in regaining wealth, in many of the Countries so damaged by Germany in World War Two? 

Being a nobody, I can only ask:  Switzerland assisted the Nazis greatly, should they also be made to pay reparations (damages)...
