17 November 1973
The student's uprising ends with the intervention of military forces.
A tank smashes through the iron gate of Athen's Polytechnic school. Police tear-gasses and beats the shit out of everyone defying the junta regime of April 21 1967
(American made and fully CIA supported)  

17 November 1974
A year later significant changes have been made.
Greece celebrates the restoration of democracy and Cyprus is partly occupied by Turkish military forces.
"17 November" becomes a national memorial day in honor of fighting-for-freedom spirit.
But the "democracy" turns out to be another junta, only this time the guys are wearing suits instead of military forms

17 November 1975
The great public demonstration march against Junta/CIA is guarded by an unprecedented number of police -- Wow, the ratio of Citizens/Police is close to 20, while the same ratio in Japan is 60 -- Yes, 1 policeman for every 20 citizens -- This is not a democracy anymore (when was it, anyway?) -- It is a police state!

CIA's Greek director is shot to death by a never-heard-of organization. The group names itself as "17 November" and justifies its further murdering acts as "Executions" in the name of the People, Freedom and Socialist Democratic ideals
They were active until recently!!!

21 April 1976
The great public memorial demonstration march
of the "21-of-April Junta" is met by tons of tear gas and the new riot-control police units
Concept copied from the French CRS and brought by Premier Karamanlis, himself an exile in Paris during 1967-1974

17 November 2008
Needless to say whatever little democracy was beginning to shine was obscured and disappeared after 1976

For the past 3 decades all true freedom, democratic values and economic progress is mostly the works of globalization and the closer ties with Europe

Our internal pseudo-governments can only be accounted for police brutality, communist bureaucracy and Third World's economic scandals

Greece is what has been left from Hellas
Our country is placed on a major global crossroad

The end of WW2 finds Greece among the victors and the old and new division forces lead to civil war (1946-1949)
In 1950 the nuclear powers have placed us in the West

17 November 2008
My fast connection is a product of European pressure and the software/hardware is basically USA made

I hope now that the USSR is long gone and Mr Obama in place,
the general situation will change for the better
-----------------------------------------------------
PS
Many years ago I sent an Email to the American Embassy in Greece as a reply to their public request for any information concerning the terrorist group "17 November"

I posed this question to them as I pose it here:
"Who knew the identity of Greece CIA's director in 1975?"

Thank you for your visit and your patience

Μπράβο στα παιδιά που σε μια εποχή που τα πράγματα ήτανε στριμόκωλα είχαν τ' αρχίδια να χάσουν τη ζωή τους για τα πιστεύω τους.

Μπουρλότο και θάνατο στους απανταχού τσέλιγκες, σ' αυτούς που προσπαθούν τώρα να το καπηλευτούν, είτε λέγονται ΚΝίτες, είτε ΕΑΑΚίτες είτε ξέρωγωτι

ΤΟ ΠΟΛΥΤΕΧΝΕΙΟ ΔΕΝ ΗΤΑΝΕ ΓΙΟΡΤΗ

οι κνίτες δεν το ξέρανε δεν ήτανε εκεί
