Να απελευθερωθεί ο Τζούλιαν τώρα! Βίντεο του ΜέΡΑ25

[embedded content] Μπορεί να διαφωνήσεις μαζί του, να τον κατακρίνεις, να τον χλευάσεις. Αυτό που όμως δεν μπορείς να κάνεις είναι να αγνοήσεις αυτά που έμαθες λόγω της δικής του δράσης για τα εγκλήματα που έγιναν (και γίνονται) στο όνομά σου. Ή το γεγονός ότι παραμένει εντοιχισμένος σε δύο δωμάτια για αυτό και για κανένα άλλο λόγο. Η απομόνωση του Τζούλιαν Ασάνζ πρέπει να σταματήσει τώρα....

Το κόστος της τρόικας πριν και μετά το 2015 – ΕφΣυν 6 ΑΠΡ 2018

Τη μακρά οκταετία των παθών του τόπου το κατεστημένο απαιτεί από τους πολίτες να προσμένουν την «ανάσταση» την ώρα που τους βομβαρδίζει με ψέματα και φρούδες ελπίδες.

Why we founded new political party MeRA25 to challenge austerity in Greece – The New Statesman, 5 APR 2018

After successfully quashing Greece’s 2015 debtor’s prison break, Europe’s deep establishment has embarked on a mission to declare the country’s economic and social crisis over. To recall Tacitus, “they make a desert and they call it peace”. Since 2015, the Greek state has paid its creditors a sum equal to the aggregate pre-tax revenues of all Greek businesses over an 18-month period. And as if these pounds of...
