NEA ΤΡΟΠΗ...ΔΟΛΟΦΟΝΗΘΗΚΕ Η ΝΤΑ'Ι'ΑΝΑ; Τι γραφει η Daily Mail

Kατ' αποκλειστικότητα η Daily Mail δημοσιεύει φωτογραφία του στρατιώτη των Ειδικών Δυνάμεων της SAS να κάνει...δοκιμές με το πυροβόλο όπλο του πάνω από γέφυρα... Αυτή η φωτογραφία βρέθηκε στο laptop του άνδρα, που μερικές εβδομάδες πριν αποκάλυψε ότι η SAS σχεδίαζε τη δολοφονία της πριγκίπισσας Diana. 

Αυτή η φωτογραφία έρχεται σαν επιστέγασμα των δηλώσεών του, καθώς αποδεικνύει ότι πραγματικά προπονούνταν άνδρες να πυροβολούν πάνω από γέφυρες στον δρόμο. Το συγκεκριμένο στιγμιότυπο είναι από την επαρχία της Ουαλίας και είναι ανάμεσα σε άλλες 90 φωτογραφίες που βρέθηκαν στο κομπιούτερ του συγκεκριμένου στρατιώτη.

Έτσι το μυστήριο για τον θάνατο της αείμνηστης πριγκίπισσας παίρνει νέα τροπή καθώς πλέον γίνεται λόγος και για δολοφονία!

Ο ισχυρισμός της δολοφονίας, που πυροδότησε παγκοσμίως σενάρια συνωμοσιολογίας, ήρθε στη δημοσιότητα από την επιστολή της πεθεράς του στρατιώτη Ν, ο οποίος ήταν βασικός μάρτυρας κατηγορίας στη δίκη του λοχία Danny Nightingale, που κρίθηκε ένοχος για παράνομη κατοχή όπλων και πυρομαχικών σε δεύτερο βαθμό. Οι αρμόδιοι του υπουργείου Αμύνης ερευνούν επίσης την αποκάλυψη ότι ο άνδρας έχει παρανόμως στην κατοχή του και απόρρητα έγγραφα, βίντεο από τις επιχειρήσεις στο Αφγανιστάν αλλά και e-mail προς την τότε σύζυγό του όπου προσδιόριζε τη θέση της SAS και των μονάδων των ειδικών δυνάμεων ναυτικού, όπως και ακριβείς χρόνους των αποστολών τους και τις μεθόδους με τις οποίες συνελάμβαναν και σκότωναν αντιπάλους.Κατά πάσα πιθανότητα οι άνδρες στη φωτογραφία συμμετέχουν σε εκπaιδευτική άσκηση για την καταστολή τρομοκρατικής ενέργειας. Η τακτική έχει στόχο να σταματήσει οποιοδήποτε όχημα που το οδηγεί τρομοκράτης ή βομβιστής και διαφεύγει με υψηλή ταχύτητα.

Γκάρντιαν και Χέραλτ:'This is payback for Greece' ..Η Λαγκάρντ απαντά στους Έλληνες μέσω fb

 IMF boss Christine Lagarde has said Greece's economic crisis is "payback" for years of dodging taxes and that she's more concerned by poverty in Africa.

THE head of the IMF has said she is more concerned about poor Africans than by Greeks hit by the economic crisis.

IMF boss Christine Lagarde told the Guardian newspaper in an interview published online on Friday, "As far as Athens is concerned, I also think about all those people who are trying to escape tax all the time. All these people in Greece who are trying to escape tax."

The IMF managing director said Greeks should "help themselves collectively" by "all paying their tax", adding that she thought "equally" about those deprived of public services by the crisis and those involved in tax avoidance.

Caught in a fifth straight year of recession, Greece is struggling to apply a tough austerity overhaul in return for EU-IMF loans, but has already made drastic cuts to public services.

On children affected by the cuts, Ms Lagarde said their parents needed to take responsibility.

"Parents have to pay their tax," she was quoted as saying.

"I think more of the little kids from a school in a little village in Niger who get teaching two hours a day, sharing one chair for three of them, and who are very keen to get an education," she added.

"I have them in my mind all the time. Because I think they need even more help than the people in Athens."

Asked whether it was "payback time" for Greece and other debt-ridden eurozone economies, she responded, "That's right", the newspaper said.

Greece in 2010 committed itself to a reform program in return for hundreds of billions of euros (dollars) in bailout funds from the EU and the International Monetary Fund to prevent a default.

Many of the reforms are currently in limbo, however, as Greece awaits a new general election on June 17 after an inconclusive vote on May 6.

The IMF, along with European leaders, has said it will not bend on tough conditions attached to its loans to Greece, with fears rising that the debt crisis could culminate in a Greek exit from the eurozone.

 Η Λαγκάρντ απαντά στους Έλληνες μέσω fb

Τόσο μεγάλη φαίνεται πώς είναι η πίεση που δέχθηκε η επικεφαλής του Διεθνούς Νομισματικού Ταμείου από τους οργισμένους Έλληνες...
οι οποίοι κατέθεσαν τις απόψεις τους στο προφίλ της ώστε η Κριστίν Λαγκάρντ αναγκάστηκε να προβεί σε ανακοινώσεις! Η δήλωσή της έχει ως εξής:

As I have said many times before, I am very sympathetic to the Greek people and the challenges they are facing. That's why the IMF is supporting Greece in its endeavor to overcome the current crisis and return to the path of economic growth, jobs and stability. An important part of this effort is that everyone should carry their fair share of the burden, especially the most privileged and especially in terms of paying their taxes. That is the point I was emphasizing when I spoke to the Guardian newspaper as part of a broader interview some time ago.

Μετάφραση:

Όπως έχω πει και στο παρελθόν, συμπονώ τον ελληνικό λαό για τις προκλήσεις που αντιμετωπίζει. Αυτός είναι και ο λόγος που το Διεθνές Νομισματικό Ταμείο στηρίζει την Ελλάδα στην προσπάθεια να ξεπεράσει την παρούσα κρίση και να επανέλθει στο μονοπάτι της οικονομικής ανάπτυξης, της εργασίας και της σταθερότητας.

Ένα πολύ σημαντικό μέρος της προσπάθειας που ο καθένας θα έπρεπε να σηκώσει, είναι η δίκαιη κατανομή των βαρών, ιδιαιτέρως από τους προνομιούχους και ειδικότερα σε ό,τι αφορά στην πληρωμή των φόρων. Σε αυτό το σημείο έδωσα έμφαση όταν μίλησα στη Guardian ως μέρος μιας ευρύτερης συνέντευξης που παραχώρησα πριν λίγο καιρό.

Making their point ... protesters clash with riot police in front of the Greek Parliament in Athens. Photo: AFP


Rioters set fire to buildings and battled police in downtown Athens as the Greek Parliament prepared to vote on Prime Minister Lucas Papademos's $160 billion austerity package to avert the nation's collapse. Up to seven buildings - including a Starbucks cafe, a bank and a cinema, as well as other stores in downtown 

Athens - were set on fire, a fire department spokesman said, speaking on the condition of anonymity in line with official policy. The buildings were near a bank that was set on fire in May 2010, killing three bank employees, during a general strike against Greece's first bailout package.

Angry ... protesters clash with riot police in Thessaloniki. Photo: AFP

Greek police fired tear gas at petrol bomb-throwing protesters outside parliament, where tens of thousands had massed.

Police said some 80,000 protesters had gathered outside the building where debate on the plan imposed by the country's international creditors - the EU, the IMF and the European Central Bank - was ongoing before a late-night vote.

Protesters say austerity package is blackmail

In the country's second city Thessaloniki, about 20,000 protesters took to the streets to protest against the austerity package they described as blackmail, which needs to be approved by parliament if Greece is to receive a 130 billion euro ($160 billion) bailout.

The unrest in Athens started when a group on Syntagma square tried to muscle past the police cordon protecting the parliament building.

Riot police retaliated with tear gas grenades, scattering protesters into nearby streets where they hurled rocks and molotov cocktails at the security forces.

Greek MPs prepare for austerity vote in order to win bailout The Australian - ‎23 minutes ago‎ THE Greek Parliament, under heavy guard from riot police, last night debated painful austerity measures the country must adopt to win a multi-billion-euro bailout and debt-restructuring program. [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

People wearing masks smashed shop windows along two major avenues while a bank was set on fire, police said.

Sunday's protesters included trade unionists, youths with shaven heads waving Greek flags, communist activists and left-wing sympathisers, many of them equipped with gas masks.

Syntagma square was shrouded in a thick cloud of tear gas. One elderly Greek man could be seen among the demonstrators, breathing through a gas mask and wearing swimming goggles.

But while dispersing into nearby streets initially, the crowd soon returned onto the square, with families among the tens of thousands that had gathered.

A man was seen hawking paper masks - as some form of protection against the tear gas - as well as Greek flags.

'We will be the Germans' slaves'

Against the wall of the central bank, the word "Greece" was painted in black and replaced by "Bank of Berlin", alluding to the impression among Greeks that Germany is dictating the painful austerity measures.

"It's not easy to live in these conditions," said 49-year-old engineer Andreas Maragoudakis. "By 2020 we will be the Germans' slaves."

Another protester, Stella Maguina, 33, said: "We are here for our parents and our children, for all those who can't come."

Civil engineer Anastasia Papadaki, 27 said "the measures are not the solutions to the problem as they will not bring growth.

"It's just the international community blackmailing us."

"Enough is enough!" said 89-year-old Manolis Glezos, one of Greece's most famous leftists.

"They have no idea what an uprising by the Greek people means. And the Greek people, regardless of ideology, have risen."

Glezos is a national hero for sneaking up the Acropolis at night in 1941 and tearing down a Nazi flag from under the noses of the German occupiers, raising the morale of Athens residents.

"These measures of annihilation will not pass," Glezos said on Syntagma Square, visibly overcome by teargas and holding a mask over his mouth.

As is usual in Greek protests, only a small fraction of the crowd fought the police but one group started a fire right in front of a tent where first aid workers were preparing to care for the injured.

"Cops, pigs, murderers!" chanted the crowd.

Police said 14 injured protesters were taken to hospital - including one who was hit in the stomach by a flare - and at least 50 were treated at the scene for breathing problems caused by the tear gas. At least eight police were also injured.

Bankruptcy is worse: Greek finance minister

Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos, opening the debate, stressed the importance of backing the government-approved plan to stave off bankruptcy.

"The choice is not between sacrifice and no sacrifices at all, but between sacrifices and unimaginably harsher ones," he told a stormy debate expected to run well into the night.

One small party has already pulled out of the coalition of Prime Minister Lucas Papademos in protest against the terms of the rescue package from the European Union and International Monetary Fund - Greece's second since 2010.

A number of lawmakers from the two biggest government parties, socialist PASOK and conservative New Democracy, have also threatened to rebel but their numbers did not appear to be enough to sink the bill.

Greece needs the international funds before March 20 to meet debt repayments of 14.5 billion euros, or suffer a chaotic default which could shake the entire euro zone.

'Greece needs to do its own homework'

The EU and IMF say they have had enough of broken promises and that the funds will be released only with the clear commitment of Greek political leaders that they will implement the reforms whoever wins an election potentially in April.

Euro zone paymaster Germany ratcheted up the pressure yesterday.

"The promises from Greece aren't enough for us anymore," German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said in an interview published yesterday in the Welt am Sonntag newspaper.

German opinion polls show a majority of Germans are willing to help, Schaeuble said, "but it's important to say that it cannot be a bottomless pit ... At least people are now starting to realise it won't work with a bottomless pit.

"Greece needs to do its own homework to become competitive - whether that happens in conjunction with a new rescue program or by another route that we actually don't want to take."

When asked if that other "route" meant Greece quitting the euro zone, Schaeuble said: "That is all in the hands of the Greeks themselves. But even in the event [Greece leaves the euro zone], which almost no one assumes will happen, they will still remain part of Europe."

The austerity measures include cutting the minimum wage from about 750 euros a month and aim to cut Greece's bloated state sector workforce by about 150,000 people by 2015.

It also provides for a bond swap to ease Greece's debt burden by cutting the real value of private-sector investors' bond holdings by some 70 per cent. Greece will miss a February 17 deadline to offer a debt "haircut" to private bondholders if the vote is not passed today.

Hee Haw! Donkeys Get Last Laugh As One Greek Tragedy Ends Happily

British Rescue Beasts of Burden Abandoned by Strapped Owners

By SARA SCHAEFER MUñOZ

Life is good for a handful of donkeys living on an estate in the English countryside. They aren't natives of Great Britain. They're refugees from Greece--four-legged victims of the country's economic crisis. WSJ's Sara Schaefer Munoz reports.

LITTLEHAMPTON, England—The crumbling Greek economy nearly took down Christoforos, a lucky young stud with a shock of brown hair who goes by just one name.
Instead of being thrown out on the street last year—or worse—Christoforos escaped his humble digs on the island of Kos in an unlikely Odyssey that ended in the special wing of an aristocratic U.K. estate dubbed "The Donkey Palace."

Donkeys Have Their Day

Sara Schaefer Muñoz/The Wall Street Journal

Donkeys amble about on a portion of an 11,000-acre estate called Angmering Park in Littlehampton, England.

U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron has refused bailout help for Greece. But that hasn't stopped British citizens from organizing the rescue of Greek donkeys abandoned by cash-strapped owners.
Last December, Christoforos and a companion, a white-nosed donkey named Fotis, made a five-day journey to the south of England on a special equine transport truck.
Today, they live on an 11,000-acre estate called Angmering Park, owned by Anne Herries, the daughter of a late Duke of Norfolk.
The two donkeys wander green rolling fields during the day and dine on fresh hay and ginger snaps. They enjoy frequent tooth and hoof cleaning. At night, they sleep in a heated stable with a view of the English Channel.
As Greek pensions shrink to help narrow government deficits, these animals enjoy a luxurious retirement abroad. "They must think they've landed in some sort of donkey heaven," said Gwen Ware, a British citizen who helped raise funds for their emigration through her charity, Saving Greek Animals.
At Lady Herries's estate, Christoforos and Fotis live with seven other donkeys saved from starvation or the slaughterhouse. There is room for about 40. But caretaker Fiona Burness said she feared crowding would cause the donkeys to "lose out on the socialization and the individual attention."
Donkeys have worked in Greece since the start of recorded history. They still carry food and firewood. Some haul tourists up steep steps in such vacations spots as Santorini.
Animal-rights groups say the animals are now being abandoned at a growing pace by Greek owners who can't afford them. The market for work donkeys has plummeted along with demand for Greek debt.
Donkeys "have no one to champion them," said Ms. Burness, Lady Herries's secretary, who helps care for the animals. At the sprawling English estate, she said, they have "deep straw beds, fresh water all the time, vets that come and see them at any time of night or day."
The British, known for a sometimes eccentric love of animals, have a special affection for donkeys. Riding donkeys on the beach in coastal resorts like Blackpool and Brighton was once a highlight of British vacations.
Others say Britons identify with the beasts' stoicism. "Snaffi, one of our donkeys, got his head stuck in a gate. He was just standing there quietly for 40 minutes, waiting for someone to come help him," said Ms. Burness. "A horse would have been going berserk."
It's unclear how many Greek donkeys are forsaken in the country's economic tragedy. A spokeswoman at Greece's agricultural ministry said the government had no information on the matter.
Barbara Doulyeraki, who runs Agia Marina Donkey Rescue in Crete, said she gets about two or three calls a week from villagers selling or giving away donkeys, up from about one call a month in years past.
She said older donkeys who can't work are sometimes left on roadsides to starve or are sold to roving meat vendors.
"It's quite a tragic situation," said Ms. Doulyeraki. "These donkeys have worked for 25 or 30 years, really hard."
The Donkey Sanctuary, based in England's southwest region of Devon, funds a Greek rescue facility that costs €45,000 a year, or about $60,000.
Another U.K.-based charity, Greek Animal Rescue, raises about €150,000 per year, with a portion earmarked for a donkey sanctuary on the island of Kos.
The group's founder, Vesna Jones, helped relocate Christoforos. "They're lucky," she said, "those that make it out."
Immigration requires only a horse passport—also good for donkeys and zebras—that lists age, medications and, sometimes, a silhouette for identification.
"It's free movement across borders for donkeys," said a spokesman for the U.K.'s Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. The department doesn't track the number of donkey entries.
On a recent day, Christoforos and Fotis brayed and gently butted visitors to their estate. The animals ate scrub brush for years in Greece but now they turn up their nose at anything but premium racehorse hay.
Some rescued donkeys work a bit to break up the day. At the Donkey Sanctuary in Devon, donkeys give rides to emotionally-troubled children as therapy. Others make house calls to comfort the elderly.
"A young healthy donkey isn't going to like standing around in field all day," said Suzi Cretney, a senior public relations officer for the sanctuary.
Aliki, now called Alice by her English caretakers at Lady Herries's estate, will work onstage soon. She's cast to carry Mary in the local Nativity play.
