Down, down
deeper and down into the Whirlpool sinks the EU crisis.
A Spectre stalks Europe looking for a new Depression Oct. 2011 |
Europeans were told yesterday
by a Brussels spokesperson that to leave the Euro was to leave Art of
Superstate. It was a sad and un-necessary
outburst of anger at Greece from a commission losing its own credibility with
Europe’s citizens.
Europe’s
leadership is off to the Bric (Brazil, Russia, India & China) countries
begging for assistance while fumbling in its own back garden over assistance to
a small house member.
Leaving the Euro is acceptable but expulsion from
the Union by the commission is wholly un-acceptable. If that were to happen
then Art of Superstate will invite its own nemesis and a place in the history
books.
Trouble of
the kind witnessed 80 years past is lurching closer. Unity is still strength.
Greece must not be coerced into a resentful position to save Brussels pride.
Brussels should acknowledge that the mood of citizens is fast shifting towards
direct action, social unrest and possibly revolution. Greek resistance is well documented.
It would pay
the Brussels mandarins to think before they send a spokesperson to say the
wrong thing.
