Greece has willingly become a client state of Israel, a pariah cult. Read the room (world), Greece! Why does Greece need a sophisticated air defense system? Who’s attacking Greece? Perhaps a better question is who is lining their pockets?

Turkey is threatening Greece. Has been threatening to invade the Greek islands.

Situation is more complicated than you think.

And you actually believe that the buildup of arms in Greece will make the situation better? Shame on Greece for its complicity with the genociders. Just look at the Streets, In Athens and other cities in Greece!! The massive numbers of people that go out on the street in demonstration against the Zionists. The walls (graffiti) tell the truth. The people want I$rael out. All they do is incite war, dominate, destroy, and steal. Why is Greece commingling with them? Deal with the social issues in Greece, the rising numbers of pensioners with no money.

I do not pretend to have the answers. I am not for Israel’s fascists. But Turkey has its own bloody history and authoritarian tendencies.

Turkish leaders have openly threatened to invade the Greek islands.

It will be genocidal if that happens. I am conflicted on the matter and would rather see Greece NOT aligned with Israel or the US.

But there is a long term threat from Turkey that Greece and Cyprus face. It’s a horrible situation.

Cyprus is already occupied by Turkey. Turkish leaders are open in there threats to Greece. One has to see the full picture to appreciate the moral dilemma here.

Cyprus is now occupied by I$rael who are buying up most of the prime beachfront property in Cyprus. They want the island. Turks have been there for years. Look, my grandfather was a Pontic Greek, coming from Marmara (Turkey). He fled in 1922 with his family when the Greeks and Armenians were killed and burned out of their villages. But I still feel it shameful that Greece is purchasing weapons from the worst murders in the world, just “in case” something happens. Their purchasing of weapons will provoke something into happening!! Especially from an enemy of Turkey. Way to go Greece… provoke Turkey into action.

Shame on Greece. Suckered by a modern day Trojan Horse. Israel never gives. Only takes.

This allows Israel to do two things: annoy Turkey and suck up to the Americans.

Why does Israel continue to get weapons as gifts from the USA?

Greece (and other nations such as Germany) should not be pursuing military contracts with Israel in any manner...

And through ownership of Greek defense companies get access to European funding.

Instead they should team up with Ukraine and other countries who have developed knowledge in new modern warfare.

But avoiding to do any business with Israel is the way to go...

They shouldn't, but the european political class has no priority whatsoever other than The War On Russia, namely in getting Americans to fight for them. Europeans being congenital wimps.

For their part, the Americans sure have a thing for Israel.

Jean-Marc Pelletier's avatar

And what about Canadian and European soldiers being involved in Iraq and Afghanistan to support America's foreign projection of power? Congenital wimps as you say? ... in getting Americans to fight for them... nonsense

Feral Finster's avatar

European troops performed poorly.

Europeans could not address Kosovo or Libya without American help..European strategy since 1917 has been to get others (usually Americans) to fight for them.

Jean-Marc Pelletier's avatar

They fought Hitler for 2 years before Americans would dare to get involved... after they got attacked in Hawai.

So I support yourself being a proud MAGA supporter...
