The real dilemma on Sunday: hope or fear?

Since referendum was declared by Alexis Tsipras last Friday, I have been witnessing boundless propaganda and unwarrantable blackmail provoked by Greek mass media as a last pathetic attempt to alter the upcoming referendum results. That makes me wonder. Is it a part of democratic deontology procedure? Apparently not. They tend to consider it as impartiality, albeit it’s shoddy journalism. That’s how I call it!

This unprecedentedly egregious fact raises a very clear-cut tantalizing question. Shall we yield and let them win? In short, NO! Besides, Europe of solidarity, being united, says ‘NO’ to strict austerity measures on every street, every square. If we say yes, it will be a never ending story for Greece and the end of hope for Europe. So, it’s high time that we change Europe by saying a huge ‘NO’ to absurdity. We are not going to negotiate our pride and indignity. We are not going to back down. We are not going to fear. Democracy -which was born in Greece- has no dead ends. It’s responsibility to our parents, to our children, to us. It’s moral duty to our struggles, to our history.

Patently, it’s quickly grasped that many EU officials are craving government’s crumbling, because Mr. Tsipras did not break his promises to Greek People, contrary to his predecessors. I am compelled to clarify at this point that this happened in Greece for the very first time of all times. Likewise, he gave the floor to us by holding a referendum which is called Democracy. And EU officials are truly afraid of it. As a result, our creditors disagree with just one proposal in order to reach a sustainable agreement: Alexis Tsipras. World Innovation!

They could have never imagined that back in 2011 (The Night in Cannes), when they cancelled the proposed referendum within several hours in order to protect markets and keep humiliating Greek people. But now, they did not manage to deter global stock market slide, since the euro lost ground against other major global currencies. Apart from that, large amounts of money have skedaddled European banks this week. Howbeit, some EU officials keep intruding and terrorizing Greek People in favour of ‘yes’, in collaboration with the Greek Media and Greek Troika (New Democracy, Pasok, Potami), trying piteously to convince us that ‘No’ means Grexit. At the same time, some others are saying that deliberations will continue on Monday. This is completely contradictive. The truth is that they deeply know that Grexit is unlikely to happen for one straightforward reason. It is against the interests of banks, companies, geopolitical security and strategy all over the world. It is commonly known that they are playing with us, as they have been playing in the past five months with the Greek side on the table of negotiations correspondingly, refusing debt restructuring, which was come out after referendum had been declared. This is not a game! Greek People will show composure and determinedness in the pivotal moment as we have learned how to do so throughout history, knowing that banks are closed due to the bigotry of Institutions in order to blackmail us. We will overcome our fear for Greece of hope, for Europe of Democracy. By the way, I have heard something about an ultimatum delivered to Greek Democracy saying: ”The game is over”. The game starts on Sunday evening Mr. Tusk. Good luck!
