Twelve British and two Dutch plane-spotters languish in the dismal jails of fellow NATO member Greece, whilst what is probably the most corrupt and ineffective ‘justice’ system in the European ‘Union’ investigates them on charges of espionage. We are told by Greek government spokesmen that “the judicial system must take it’s course” as these harmless geeks sleep on concrete floors surrounded by rapists, thieves and murderers.
Yet over the last 25 years, a Greek Marxist terrorist group called November 17 has, during the course of over 150 terrorist incidents, murdered twenty four people, including a British Army brigadier, a senior CIA officer and three other US national. They have regularly attacked the offices of multinational corporations with bombs, arson and shootings.
And how many of these terrorist have been convicted or killed by the Greek Security Services in the last 25 years?
Er… none.
How many have even been arrested in the last 25 years?
None. Not a single one.
So then would it be fair to say that the Greek Security Services are perhaps the most inept in the western world? Well there is certainly some truth to that, but unfortunately the principal reason is that the November 17 terrorists are all closely linked to the Greek socialist PASOK party and have tendrils deep within the security services themselves, according to people as varied as former CIA chief Jim Wolsey and former Greek Prime Minister Constantine Mitsotakis.
Jim Wolsey was once quoted as saying:
When you don’t catch a single terrorist after twenty five years, that’s not a mistake… that’s a policy.
It is good to know that we have such wonderful allies within NATO. I guess if those foolish plane-spotters had not been tying up so much police time, November 17 would all be behind bars by now.
Or not.
The hapless Greek people are very ill served by their vile political establishment. Next time the half-wits in Whitehall start muttering about Britain signing up for Europe wide extradition warrants, ponder exactly what sort of judicial systems await in nations of our oh so wonderful ‘allies’.
