Fidel Castro hails Alexis Tsipras’s ‘brilliant political victory’

ATHENS: Former Cuban president Fidel Castro congratulated Greek Prime Minister Alexis ­Tsipras for his “brilliant political victory” in the country’s ­referendum, which saw voters ­deliver a resounding “no” to more austerity measures

…Dr Castro wrote to Mr Tsipras saying he had “closely followed this victory” on Venezuelan TV station Tele Sur, said a statement from Mr Tsipras’s office.The letter from the 88-year-old described Greece as a country well-known to Cubans for its ­history and famed contributions to “the most complex of all human activities, art and political science”.  Dr Castro wrote that Greece had “the admiration of the Latin American and Carribean peoples” for the way in which it “defends its identity and its culture against external aggression”.

Really?  Only in a Socialist / Communist world of delusion can one Commie tell another one that.  OK, buckos, riddle me this:

Which chumps do you think the “other peoples’ money” is going to be coming from?

Sure, if Obama has his way, he send it.  but beyond that – what European country within the EU is going to continue to send worse money after bad?  And if they did, do you REALLY think they are going to give enough to be “not austerity”?

Victory?  Not austerity?  Only if the EU caves and either gives Greece the full boat or lets them out of their obligations. Otherwise, if they decide that “No is no” and no more for Greece, austerity will be around for a long, long time.  Remember, Spain, Portugal and the other “Weak Men” of Europe have yet to take the stage in this “Europe has no money” competition – and they are watching closely to see if they can “never waste a crisis” especially if they can get more of other peoples’ money.
