Remember the words of Bismarck.”If there is to be a general war in Europe, it will be because of some damned fool thing in the Balkans.” My guess and fear is that Greece will develop a Chavez type strongman, blame the US for its problems and seek financial, economic, and military ties with Iran,Russia,and China.

And that is what will cause the general war. Greece will default on their loans and crash the German economy. When Germany tries to get their money back the Greeks will call on the Russians to intervene. Good thing we have a strong Poland between Russia and Germany. Oh wait Obama pulled out the missile interceptors and the Polish leadership all got killed in Russia. Its almost as if someone wanted to open up an obvious invasion path.

Yes, the 20th century began and ended with problems in the Balkans. It looks like the 21st century is starting the same way.

I also think Bismarck said the Balkans are not worth the life of one Pomeranian rifleman.

financial, economic, and military ties with Iran,Russia,and China.

Ties with the US and NATO have caused Greece nothing but grief and destruction for this loyal ally.

Iran means nothing — no matter how loudly the crass puppet nut job shouts-—that's for lamestream media consumption and the idjuts who lap it up.

AS for ties with Russia—— yes! China—less yes!
