A dangerous farce of the left

A dangerous farce of the left

Greece is a country that does not surprise us. Everyday politics often seem like a farce. It sometimes brings bitter laughter and sometimes deep sadness. Cheap political spectacle and the constant need to exaggerate the mood of the citizens, on the part of the Left, gave another show at the end of 2023.

A picture from the offices of the People's Assembly of the Communist Party of Greece shows General Secretary Dimitris Koutzoombas receiving New Year's greetings from the Palestinian Church of Greece. New Year's Christian Carols.

Of course, the whole scene was set up for the KKE to find yet another reason to denounce “the capitalists and murderous state of the US and the EU”, namely Israel.

Could this program be part of a study at the Dolphinarium? can It may also be another step in the osmotic phenomenon that is strongly observed between the extreme left and extreme right gap.

So we saw the atheist secretary of the KKE listening to Christian carols for the New Year from children wearing the Palestinian headscarf “kaffia” and “hijab”. Complete Surrealism. Palestinians were veiled by Palestinians during their terrorist attacks on Greek soil and hijacking of Greek targets. At the same time, only fanatical Muslim women wear hijab.

Let's think again. Muslims sing New Year's Christian carols with references to Saint Basil, the atheist leader of our country's Communist Party. It is obvious that the Palestinians are trying to move their work to the Western world. Something they could not achieve even by addressing Arab countries. But the KKE?

Does he forget that in his work “Critique of the Hegelian Philosophy of State and Law” Marx said that religion is the opiate of the people?

Has he forgotten Stalin's 1924 campaign against the famous “Khuzum” which refers to the storm or attack of the Muslim component of the Soviet Union?

Does he forget the sad decision that the theocracy that prevailed in Iran after the Islamic Revolution was assigned to the members and administrators of the Tudeh in 1979?

But everything seems to match the “mixer” of the Greek left. And Christianity and Marxism and Islam and red hammer sickles and hijabs. Because the condemnation of the West and the perpetual attempt to bring down the free world is the only goal. This is precisely the point of intersection with the domestic Stalinist left, religious, anti-Semitic and anti-democratic extreme right.

A phenomenon also seen in many European countries, for example, in Germany the AfD now dominates former regions of democratic Germany with communist culture, and in France Lebenic far-right movements are taking place from the left. Tectonic dimensions.

The scene we saw on our TV receivers from the KKE offices was certainly ridiculous. But at the same time, it is dangerous as a political message with a strong anti-Western connotation.
