Greece's Problems Did Not Start With Goldman-Sachs

Greece's problems did not start with Goldman-Sachs although Taki Theodoracopoulos on 18 February makes a good argument in "High Life, Goldman Sachs Turned The Greeks Into Crooks," in which he wrote: "Bravo Goldman Sachs. You've done it again. As in the U.S. subprime crisis, this house of ill repute created a deal which helped the Greeks obscure billions in debt from the budget overseers, then charged the Greeks hundreds of millions of Euros for helping them hide the debts."

As tragic as World War II was for Greece, Greece faced an even greater threat as brothers were pitted against brothers in Greece's civil war from 1946 to 1949 which for many was worse than the Nazi occupation. Greek communists and Greek royalists fought in hand-to-hand combat in downtown Athens in that bloody civil war. It was the Truman Doctrine that kept Greece from falling into the communist camp.
