A hungry mob is an angry mob

A Facebook friend, a socialist American expat living in Switzerland, posted on Facebook:
I tremble on the eve of WWIII as I watch the ingredients of this terrible recipe mix as if by invisible hand. Alas there is no invisible hand for war - merely ignorance and hatred that spread when vigilance is forgotten in the pursuit of selfish materialism. Or was it the pursuit of tolerance? I am grimly in accordance with the statement that Golden Dawn is using Democracy to end Democracy. How could their rise have been tolerated? How could this be happening in Europe AGAIN?
... linking to this story:
In an explosive political climate, where popular rage is at boiling point nearly five years into the country's worst crisis in living memory, the politics of hate so embodied by Golden Dawn is becoming increasingly pervasive. "Who cares if six million Jews were exterminated?" asked the businessman back at the cafe, in a shocking endorsement of that reality. "I don't care if they were turned into soap. What I care about is the salary I have lost, the never-ending taxes I am forced to pay, the criminals who rule this country, the anger I carry inside."
In the words of Bob Marley, "A hungry mob is an angry mob." EU debt slavery is choking Greece. They should have defaulted and gone back to the drachma, but their politicians are doing the bidding of the Euro banksters. So you get what we had here last week... which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it.

It was externally-imposed reparation debt that set the stage for the stagnation and inflation that gave rise to the Nazis in the 1930's.  When will they ever learn?

"Golden Dawn is using Democracy to end Democracy."

Sounds like they learned from Obama.

Happy Super Tuesday!
