Greece has been socialist and anti-American for yearsThey are socialist, but the biggest reason they are anti-American is all about lifestyles and Christ.
In the eastern Orthodox faith we are rather seclusive and anti-western, even here. We take that command about renouncing this world to an extreme. :-)

MarMema, I had not idea that Greece is known for its "Christian values." Nowadays "Christian values" usually are "cafeteria-style," people accept those biblical principles that they support and ignore those that convict them.
Greece has also harbored terrorists, including those who attacked the Achille Lauro and murdered the disabled passenger, Leon Klinghoffer, in 1985.
