Hi y'all,

 

God Bless British and American military personnel and keep them safe.

 

We heard President Bush tonight say that 38 nations had agreed to

provide full support to follow-on military operations against other

terrorist organizations and bases .. and that brings me to question how

NATO is going to deal with their wayward member - Greece! I want to

share some facts with you.

 

The politicians are careful to avoid mentioning Greece - none of you

have heard one word from any Greek politician. Because we have more

valuable American citizens of Greek origin in the USA than there are

Greeks in Greece, and because most of us grew up with Greek friends and

many (to include my lady, Chris) have Greek-American family members. So

we don't give much thought to Greece as it seems to be a lot like our

own homeland - but it is not!

 

Greece has long been a terrorist supporting country - they have trained

and funded terrorists .. this is a matter of fact and it has been openly

published by world-wide sources - but I doubt many of you have read this

information. It is still alleged by certain intelligence organizations

in many countries, including America .. that they are still doing so.

We know that Southern Cyprus (Greek Cyprus) has long been a major center

for the laundering and transfer of illegal funds .. to include funds

from OBL.

 

Recently, a Greek polling organization released these results - I am

glad it was conducted by a Greek company and not an American company.

 

" Greeks have mixed feelings over the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks against

the United States, with opinion mainly divided between those who feel

grief and those who believe America was in some way responsible,

according to a poll published on Wednesday (this was Wednesday, 3

October). While 28.7 percent of those questioned said they feel grief

for the victims, 21.7 percent said they believed America was paying for

its past mistakes, according to the poll carried out by the V.PRC

company for the Athens daily Ta Nea.

 

Only 3.5 percent said they felt the desire to help and 7 percent felt

rage, while 19.1 percent said they feared other such attacks in the

future. Nearly 2 percent said they felt indifferent.

 

Since the attacks, a small but vocal fringe here has publicly argued

that the U.S. provoked the action through what they see as arrogance and

dictating global policies.

 

The government has been concerned that anti-American incidents could

hurt the country's image abroad. Earlier this month, fans of the Athens

soccer team AEK jeered and tried to burn the American flag during a

minute's silence held in honor of the attack victims, before a match

against a Scottish team.

 

AEK did not directly respond to the incident, but went to the U.S.

Embassy on Wednesday to sign a book of condolences for the victims.

 

In the V.PRC poll, the majority of those questioned were doubtful as to

whether Osama bin Laden, named by the U.S. as the prime suspect, was

responsible for the attacks, with 37.7 percent saying they did not

believe he was behind the attacks and 43.5 percent saying they did not

know.

 

The results were based on interviews with 563 people around mainland

Greece and the island of Crete, the newspaper said. No margin of error

was provided.

 

It was the second part of a survey carried out by V.PRC. In the first

part published Monday, the poll found 86.2 percent opposed to any

military retaliation by the U.S. with only 7.8 percent in favor. "
