Germany wants to show that no challenge to austerity and neoliberalism will be accepted and it wants a regime change in Athens, a government by the people who created the Greece state debt in the first place and did nothing to push through those "reforms" now demanded from Syriza.

But these fathers of tax evasion and culture of bribery are now loyal converts to austerity, although not to deconstructing their own web of cleptocracy and it's austerity that Germany demands, not believable reforms.

Old chairmen of Bank of Greece are polished off to be PM and ministers in a "technocratic government" until new rightwing government looks likely in polls.

This is a coup. Merkel whines about "lost trust", but why on earth should Syriza do what that loyal hand puppet of Berlin, Samaras, signed on. Samaras, who was treated kindly by Germany while not doing those "reforms" beyond austerity.

According to some estimate, there are up to 200 billion euros worth of money in Swiss bank accounts by Greek tax evaders. Has the EU offered help to regain those billions? Of course not.  They are by the same old elite which EU  now wants to re-instate.
