Maybe it should come as
no surprise that
fearsome resistance
to the
tyrannous
"ruling
elite" cartel of global bankers would emerge from
Athens in the way that it
now is?
"Cradle
of democracy is Athens, ancient Greek city-state,
situated in beautiful part of Peloponez, in Attica. Athens owe the
first penal and civil law code to Draco. That was him who
differentiated premeditated murder from accidental manslaughter."
The above excerpt is from:
http://www.ancient-greece.us/democracy.html
How cowardly, stupid and puny our political leaders here in the
Republic of Ireland now look --
all of them -- of
the
left, the
right, and the
centre, still all
sucking-up and
kowtowing to the
bankers for all
they're worth,
while giving away our vast oil and gas resources
to the likes of
Shell: who I imagine are probably largely, if
not fully, already
owned by the global banking cartel (in one
way or another).

That's just it
"Realist".
With their tongues, our political leaders fraudulently claim to be
fully supportive of genuine democracy -- as in "government of the

The
sad (and sick) reality of the
Republic of Ireland at the present time is that the
"ruling
elites" can commit
crime (of all kinds and sizes) with
impunity, and that
nobody seems to know how (in practice) to
"decommission" this deeply
unhealthy and
obnoxious social arrangement of theirs: even though there is an
abundance of
"law" in place for just such purposes.
Obviously, the
Republic of Ireland's legal profession now
desperately needs to be
PURGED of all the
accumulating
political and corporate corruption it has
foolishly and
irresponsibly been
absorbing and
embracing over the
years.
Unfortunately, nobody here seems to have any idea of how -- in
practice -- to successfully go about
cleaning up our legal
profession either.
To further
compound matters,
most (close to
all
possibly)
Republic of Ireland citizens appear to be either
unaware of,
in denial over, or
feigning ignorance
of, the
MASSIVE problem which we actually
have
with our legal profession: even though -- for
example --
our judges have in recent years very publicly
jailed at least eight people (that I know of) who
have tried to
peacefully object to the
"great (and
unconstitutional and consequently unlawful) giveaway" of our
oil and gas resources, which have been valued at
5.4 trillion Euros.
Though it is the case that
a number of small street protests
have been tried, so far they appear to have produced just the odd
hopeful looking
"flash in the pan", and a few
short-lived "false
dawns" for some perhaps -- which is not by any means the fault
of the street protestors concerned as far as I know, and much more
likely to be the fault of all those who are
so far completely
failing to lawfully and peacefully protest in public: in the
face of what they should sensibly be viewing as
exceptionally
serious and dangerous developments deep within our own
society?
