Greece Warns Brussels: '€˜Stop Bullying Us or We'll Let ISIS In'
2015-04-08
[Breitbart UK] In a veiled threat to the EU and its financial institutions, Greece has warned that any foreign meddling in its domestic affairs makes the likelihood of ISIS infiltration into Europe more likely.

Speaking to the Times, defence minister Panos Kammenos warned that "consistent" attempts by Brussels to divide the government coalition would destabilise the country, leaving Athens unable to properly patrol Greece's borders.
Nice continent you got there. Be a shame if anything happened to it...
"This gross meddling into [Greek] domestic affairs isn't just unheard of by European standards, it's unethical and it's dangerous. If Greece goes, then a lot more than financial stability and the euro is at stake," he said.

#12  No, IIUC Greece's argument is that the EU's overly lax immigration rules will only help the Hard Boyz enter Europe very easily. in contrance to Greece which desires to control its immigration, + prevent or minimize the Hard Boyz from entering the Country + Europe.

#11  Nice artificial currency union hiding a panoply of inconvenient economic differences you have there. Shame if it frayed even more at the seams you call subways, markets and airports...

#10  Love my many Greek friends, all the good ones fled. I find them stone cold in their beliefs, loyal as hell, generous to a fault and exceptional tradesmen.

#6  Greece was ruled by Ottomans for a long time. Pretty sure the Muslims have not forgotten and still have a claim to Greek land. Greece could find themselves between a rock and a hardplace soon if they keep playing it stupid.

Guess Putin is slow writing the checks he was begged for.

Besides ISIS attitudes are already embedded in Europe.

Er.... no. And we just found a great place to unload some of those old thermonuclear weapons we wanted to set off.
