IF HELLAS DIES THE WHOLE WORLD DIES WITH IT
Vasilis Moustakis
Because of the recent catastrophic events taking place in Hellas (Greece), we are not allowed to stand idle.
A multitude of national atrocities and treacheries have occured during the last years.
Corrupted political puppets have surrendered our national sovereignty via memorandums to banksters and corporations,
rendering our country into a private property of someone else.
Millions of people are jobless, many have lost their homes and even the ones who have a job cannot live with such a low income.
Some of them need to work two jobs at the same time. No personal time or space. No time for family. Demographic problem.
Over five hundred thousand young people of ours have left the country for a better living.
Over fifty thousand suicides in just a couple of years.
The fake political figures attempt to make a deal with Skopja regarding Macedonia’s national borders.
Anyone who goes against it is labeled as fascist.
Even the majority of demonstrations that take place all over Greece are controlled by the few,
depriving the citizens of their right to speak freely and express the truth, playing their role as exhaustion valves.
In the meantime, foreigners enter the country and enjoy more earnings than a Greek citizen.
We have become citizens of second screening. Foreigners in our home. Slaves and pieces of merchandise.
Getting shoved down the huge meatmachine of the global slave market.
No one values human life or effort. And this truth is made crystal-clear during the last few days.
A series of wildfires broke loose in the area of eastern Attica, Greece.
Igniting simultaneously. Everyone knew it was intentional. Gerania Ori were on fire.
Raphina, Kineta, Mati, Nea Makri, Loutraki and Neo Voutza were among the struck areas.
Nothing was done to warn the citizens in time; no sirens, no bellrings, nothing at all.
People tried to flee. The toll booths stopped their cars on their tracks, demanding payment, despite the crisis.
Many did not get away in time. People got trapped in their homes and burned alive.
Others tried to reach the shoreline. Water would keep them safe, they assumed.
Many people, being unaware of the area,ended up into a dead end, getting trapped to a cliff above the sea.
A young girl fell from the cliff, due to panic or confusion and got killed, while the fire was burning her family alive.
The rest of them had the same fate.
The ones who managed to reach the shore entered the sea, seeking shelter from the fire.
But the winds and currents were too strong for many of them. Many were drowned.
The media mentioned over a thousand burned residences.
More than three hundred burned cars, many of which took lives with them.
Over seventy dead people, one hundred and seventy injured, and many who are still missing.
I can’t be sure about the number of casualties.
I heard from someone from a foreign country that the dead victims are more than two hundred.
I can’t tell much about it. The only thing I know is I don’t trust the media.
The tragedy is still going on.
People got killed.
The civil protection mechanisms are defective,
despite the best efforts of the firemen and the police officers.
Hell got on earth and they’re still doing their best.
The government is absent and indifferent.
The orthodox church makes infuriating statements
that the wildfires were divine punishment to a godless prime minister.
It was a mass murder. It was a genocide. A grim sacrifice.
The whole situation is full of sorrow, grief, anger and agony.
But people are helping each other. People are getting together.
They’ve shed their bonds with the indefferent political status and organised religion.
Everyone spits at them in despise, seems they finally understand their hypocrisy.
Maybe this time they’ll understand, the only one they can count on is each other.
Maybe this time they’ll understand that, being united, they are stronger than being divided.
By the Gods, let it be this time.
This nation has suffered enough.
This is not a casual artwork.
This is not a journal entry.
This is a message for all the people.
This is a wake up call.
Nothing is right with the world these days.
Everything is messed up.
No one is safe or satisfied.
Everyone suffers.
And all this has to stop.
We’ve had enough.
You, as well, I know that.
Even more the reason to make our stand.
At this moment, it would be just to ask you a favor.
I will not ask you to send anything to the people who have suffered.
Most of your contributions will not end up here, anyway.
Help the Greeks understand what’s going on.
Help my brothers and sisters and fathers and mothers and children see what is wrong with the world.
Maybe they will listen.
Maybe they will understand.
And for one time, stand up for Greece.
It’s the least you can do for a nation that has stood for everyone against tyranny throughout the centuries.
Stand Up for Hellas
And Hellas will Stand Up for you again.
Strenght and Light to all of you.
