A Hellenic Case Against Hillary

A Hellenic Case Against Hillary

by Theodore G. Karakostas

The following critique is not motivated by partisanship. I am a critic of the anti-Hellenic and anti-Orthodox policies of both major political parties. However, the focus now is Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party. In 1992, then Presidential Candidate Bill Clinton promised the Greek-American community he would not recognize Skopje with the name Macedonia. In 1994, the Clinton administration broke its promise and subsequently recognized Skopje under the Hellenic name of Macedonia. The Clinton administration subsequently tried to pressure Athens to lift the embargo that had been justifiably imposed by Greece in retaliation to the treacherous act undertaken by the Clinton administration.

On January 31, 1996 the Clinton administration represented by Undersecretary of State Richard Holbrooke supported Turkish aggression in the Aegean at the expense of Greece when the Greek flagcame down from the islet of Imia. In December 1998, when the Republic of Cyprus was set to install anti-aircraft missiles as a defensive measure against Turkey, the Clinton administration supported Turkish aggression. In contrast to the pressure used by the Clinton administration to prevent Cyprus from adopting a policy of self defense, the Clintons permitted Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Al Quada to arm and train the Muslims of Bosnia against the Bosnian Serb leadership that was resisting the attempted Islamicization of the region by the fundamentalist President Aliza Azatbegovic.

During the Bosnian War, the Clinton administration permitted Turkish soldiers to go to Bosnia, the first time Turkish soldiers were present in the Balkans since the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. In 1996, Human Rights Watch traveled to Washington to lobby against the Clinton administration's sale of clusterbombs to Turkey, in light of the atrocities and war crimes being committed by the Turkish military against the civilian Kurdish population. In December 1998, the Clinton administration bombed Iraq on the grounds that Baghdad was building weapons of mass destruction. The bombing stopped before the Muslim holymonth of Ramadan.

Contrast that with the ruthless bombing of Serbia on Orthodox Easter by the Clinton administration. The Clinton administration ignored the appeals of the Serbian Orthodox Church, along with the Orthodox Churches of Greece, Cyprus, Russia, Rumania and elsewhere to halt the bombing. General Wesley Clark specifically targeted civilian targets in Belgrade, and in the aftermath of the ruthless targeting of Orthodox Christian civilians in hospitals, Churches, and buildings Islamic extremists were permitted by the Clinton administration and NATO to destroy the Serb civilians of Kosovo. As a result of the Clinton administration's anti-Orthodox policies, Osama Bin Laden and Al Quada established a presence in Kosovo and Bosnia.

Muslims in Kosovo proceeded to kidnap and decapitate Orthodox Monks Father Charitan Lukic and Stefan Purim. There is a documentary film entitled "Days Made of Fear"* which documents the destruction of hundreds of Serbian Churches and the killings of Serb civilians all of which are the outcome of the politically correct policies of the Clinton administration in making the Balkans safe for Turkey and for Islam. The rabidly pro-Turkish policies of the Clinton administration were manifested by the American role in capturing the Kurdish resistance leader, Abdullah Ocalan who unlike Yasser Arafat or Nelson Mandela, was not treated as a statesman but was condemned to prison and torture because he was the enemy of the murderous Turkish State.

In late 2000, in its final months in office the Clinton administration pressured Congress not to pass a Resolution that would have recognized the Armenian Genocide. The Clintons are no friends of Hellenism or Orthodoxy. The Clinton administration undermined Greece and Cyprus during every crisis that erupted during its eight years in office. They subsequently opened the door for the Islamicization of the Balkans. The Kosovo policy undertaken by the Clintons is a direct challenge to the outcome of the Balkan Wars of 1912-13. Greece liberated Macedonia when Serbia liberated Kosovo, and the change of borders at the expense of Serbia will encourage extremists in Skopje who desire Macedonia.

It was under the Clinton administration that NATO expanded eastward inching ever more closer to the border of Orthodox Russia. For centuries, Tsarist Russia was the only free Orthodox country and was looked upon with fear and terror by the Ottomans. Former Clinton administration officials such as Richard Holbrooke and Madeleine Albright are today active with their neoconservative successors in attempting to crush the rights of Serbia, and to undermine Russia. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton has been appealing to the Turkish lobby to support her Presidential Campaign.

In conclusion, the Clinton administration tirelessly worked to set up the various "war crimes" tribunals of former Yugoslavia. In August 1996, the Turkish government through the terrorist group known as the "Grey Wolves" slaughtered four Greek Cypriot protesters. Their murderers, along with those responsible for the crimes perpetrated during the invasions of Cyprus in 1974, and for the 1,600 missing Cypriots were never punished. All this is the record of the first Clinton administration on the national interests of Hellenism.

Ran across this by accident. Thought it was interesting with regards to the people who surround the Clintonistas and the type of people Hillary Clinton would bring to office for Bill Clinton's Third Term.

I have been to Macedonia in Greece, it is an absolutly beautiful low mountain area. Green, lush, fresh air beautiful.

Sad to think what the Clinton’s did to the north of Greece.

The sad part is, the Russians are playing the diplomacy perfectly here. We are sucking up to the Turks and Albanians, so we can seem politically correct. “Hey look, we have Muslim allies!”

Of course, Turkey closed Incirlik and their air base for the deployment of troops into Iraq, and Albania’s alliance has netted about 100 troops in the WOT. Wow, such important partners and “allies”.

On the other hand, Russia is backing Serbia on the Kosovo issue, and as such currying favor with all of the countries of Eastern Europe. Funny, how we fought the Russians in the Cold War for 50 years, and finally liberated Eastern Europe from the Russians. And now, we are trying as hard as possible to alienate those countries and push them back into the Russian sphere of influence.

The Serbian election just finished, and they elected an ultranationalist who wants to bring in Russian troops. Of course, we couldn’t pass a bill recognizing Turkey’s slaughtering of 1.5 million Orthodox Armenians, because that would make Turkey upset. And Turkey is our “ally”. So instead, we piss off the Armenians. And the Greeks, who lost a million people in the same genocide.

How sad it must be, to be from Eastern Europe. Having to choose from an expansionist Russia, or an America that will sell you out in a heartbeat to placate Muslims.

Who cares about this stuff? They are baby-killers. Isn’t that a good “Orthodox” reason to oppose them?

Oh, the horror.

I had no idea that the expansion of NATO (of which Greece is a member) was anti-Greek.

The Clintons are scumbags, but the author is an obsessed weirdo.

yes a strange author.

However the points about the Clintons and their entourage should not be lost in the 2008 election.

It is good to remind people about the quagmire caused by the albright/clinton years.

we need to educate people to the maximum number of reasons why Hillry is bad for the cause of freedom in the world, not just the USA.

wow THANKS!


Please direct your attention to the photo below: the caption informs us that McCain is speaking at "a pro-Kosovo, pro-McCain rally across the street from his New York City hotel Friday morning, Feb. 11, 2000. McCain is in New York for the day to attend fundraisers and to talk to the press before returning to South Carolina Friday night." But who is the man on the right, with the colorful KLA scarf and his big mouth wide open? The caption-writer is mute on this point, but to anyone who knows anything about New York's ethnic politics, the face is all-too-familiar: it is none other than former Republican Congressman Joe DioGuardi, now the loquacious leader of the Albanian-American Civic League (AACL) – a group that not only actively represents the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) in America, but whose leader has become a spokesman for the most radical fringe elements of the KLA.

Hillary, I believe it was after Iowa, was on stage with Madeline Halbright and Weasley Klark behind her, the same old criminal faces....while she chanted for ‘change’.

Nothing involving Richard Holbrooke can come to any good.

James Baker just came out for McCain.

Baker is a lobbyist for the Saudis who want an islamic state in Europe as part of their re-conquest for islam.

McCains caputulation in this is into dangerous useful idiot status.

There is a cabal in DC, made up, sadly, mostly of Republicans, who seem dedicated to the demise of this republic as we know it. Personally, I think it all has to do with arrogance and the acquisition of money, the latter being pursued with a perverse religious fervor by many in our party, ultimately to the Islamization of the West and their own damnation.
