A scandal of unacceptable proportions in Greece. Greek Army Special Forces insulting Albanians seriously threatening even with drinking blood. This event with racist dimensions happened yesterday during the parade on the national holiday of Greece before the Presidency. "Greek born, not ever become, your blood will drive, you Albanian pig".
The news was made public by major Greek newspaper "Elefterotipia". These calls were made yesterday in downtown Athens, not by members of Hrisi Avgji demonstrators, but the Special Forces diving at the University of St. Constantine in formal military parade of 25 March.
In the midst of horrendous calls Athens continued: "It will be slaughter, then we will retaliate, and worship the cross".
Further continued and phrases for the Albanians and other neighbors: "I say Skopje, Albanians say, my clothes would dry up their skin."
Witnesses indicated that the Greek policy people who attended the military parade along with Greek citizens backed calls. "One of the men politicians, even were led by Special Forces and he called them together with the preceding ones," Elefterotipia.
All this happened while the street parade followed by family migrants who had gathered with dozens, most of them Albanians. Many of them asked the question: "Why such hatred towards us?"
A mixture of inaccuracies, and fantasy.
First, let me remind you that a US general blaimed Srebrenica on the Dutch military including gays. The US government distanced itself and the incident ended without a circus
Second, the group that allegedly shouted these(universally condemned) slogans were neither military, not did they shout them in front of the presidency or anywhere near: They were Coast guard(=police), two of their comrades had been recently murdered by Albanian druglords and their commnder has been allegedly highly decorated, among others by the swiss government for riskinghis life to rescue a swiss family from albanian pirates.
Like I said, this incident was denounced and thegovernment sacked the commander, without giving him the right to apologize.
I doubt this was directed at Albanians. It is more likely directed at widespread opposition to the government pushingthrough an extremist law that makes obtaining citizenship for immigrants a right instead of a privilege, that can and should be granted on a per case basis, as does for instance Switzerland. This basically means that one cannot refuse citizenship to people whose allegiance is to AlQueda or who may have committed crimes if they have not yet been sentenced at the highest degree(after having lost all their appeals).
It would be good to see more reactions on the issue - cases of racism and hatred are very complicated. How did the story continue, did people comment on it?

Can you give the names of the dead soldiers, sorry Coast guard ? The name of the sacked commander ?
You doubt it was directed to Albanians and then basically connect it to AlQueda.. Good thinking!
