Showing Original Post only (View all)How do YOU think Hillary will react to the Greek election results? [View all]
We know she's an austerity absolutist who cares nothing about the workers or the poor. We saw that, in the Honduran situation(and her abetting of the restoration of the Creole upper-class fascists to absolute power in Haiti), that she was just fine with bloodsoaked right-wing coups.
And she CAN'T be happy that the Greek people have defied the financial oligarchs and the power of the almighty Merkel.
Do folks here think she can be trusted NOT to do a repeat of the Johnson Administration 1967 policy towards Greece(the policy that was illustrated by LBJ grabbing the Greek ambassador by the shoulders and screaming "The U.S. is an elephant and Greece is a flea!" if the Left continues to grow in Greece and the imposition of austerity is subjected to serious challenge?
And do you think that, if she pushes for letting the Greek colonels seize power again, our C-in-C will stop her?
Will Hillary, in short, get in touch with her inner Dean Rusk in terms of dealing with Greece and the rise of democracy there?
These are natural questions on such a day as this.
