HELLENIC LINES
The National Conservative newspaper
A response to Andrew Apostolou's abomination.
Andrew Apostolou's "The Shame of Modern Greece" (Opinion Europe, January 20, 2010), about the arson attacks on a historic synagogue in Chania on the island of Crete, represents a case of a premature judgment used to support a simple-minded sermon without respect for the complexity of the historic relationship between the Greeks and the Jews, which stretches back about 2500 years.

The US support Islam in the Balkans.
Today the Balkans region is again on the front line of the conflict between Christendom and Islam, but unfortunately the United States and European Union have decided to side with their enemies. The US not only supported local Islamic violence in Bosnia and Kosovo but also subsidized the importation of radical Islamists from North Africa, the Middle East, and Pakistan.
Interview with Thomas Fleming
Left turn in Greece.
Security has always been a key issue for conservatives and nationalists worldwide. But that’s not the case in Greece. So voters in the homeland of democracy, displeased by riots and anarchy, the inability of the government to put down the protests, and the effects of the financial crisis, have reacted angrily against the “conservatives” on whose watch the chaos took place.

A real Greek tragedy.
Today, there is not a single editor-in-chief —even in what remains of the right-wing press— nor any television or radio executive who is not a leftist. The (mainly ex-) communists now control the Greek media, deciding which concerns ought to be raised and which should be concealed from the public. The concerns that are deemed worthy to address are presented from a singularly “progressive” and dogmatic point of view. Thus, the transformation of Greek society continues apace.

Clear message.
The People's Orthodox Rally (LAOS) is now the 4th political power in the country, and in many electoral districts the 3rd. The Greek people have shown the direction. The Patriotic Movement will continue to expand its influence and its dynamic. The national ideas are at the forefront and anyone who ignores them will continue to lose.

“October Revolution” exercises in Greece.
It is obvious that the goal of the attacking leftist thugs is to obstruct with any means possible the political change in Greece. It is also sad that they believe that the “October Revolution” can be repeated today and are willing to butcher again people so as to satisfy their bankrupt ideological obsessions.

The Birth of a Clone State.
Today's self-proclaimed ethnic Macedonians claim that their 'country' was partitioned in the Treaty of Bucharest. But following the Treaty there is no documented revolution, rebellion, revolt or insurrection by the so-called ethnic Macedonians of that time or by anyone else for that matter. As this ethnic Macedonian identity was mostly a Serb invention, they obviously could not have revolted against themselves. Even Macedonists such as Krste Misirkov eventually conceded and acknowledged their Bulgarian roots.

The Present Situation in Berisha's Albania.
A recent flare up near Loukovo, one of the towns in the predominantly ethnic Greek province of Cheimarra (Albanian, Himara) over questions of property rights suddenly raises questions about the nature and extent to which the Albanian government, headed by Prime Minister Sali Berisha, has accepted basic democratic values such as the primacy of the rule of law, property rights and the basic human rights of ethnic minorities.

Why Athens is burning.
Athens, along with several other Greek cities, has been burning for the several days. The rioting was triggered by the death of a teenager killed by the police on Saturday night. How to make sense of a reaction that appears to be so massively disproportionate? Several observers have pointed to the usual suspects: maladministration and corruption; the collapse of confidence in the government; political scandals; a growing gap between the rich and the poor.
