The touch of the Olympic Flame.Few will perhaps know and perhaps much less will be interested in this new decision by the people of the government to touch the Olympic flame in the Panathenaic stadium instead of ancient Olympia.
I am not particularly impressed by the indifference of the managers of this situation as they were equally indifferent to the renaming of the Olympic events to the Olympic games, as the foreign participants in this event of the Greeks wanted them to be 700 BC approx.
What they did not foresee is the fact of the permanent designation as a game and the global relegation of the meaning of holding the Olympic games.
One can now easily identify the Olympic games with the holding of a football or singing competition.
No one has respected the point of these competitions by allowing anabolics to exist so that there are controls for use.
No one paid attention to the addition of competitions with non-Greek roots.
No one will pay attention to the touch of the Olympic flame if tomorrow it happens in Ukraine or England.
Nobody pays attention to something that is Greek
We demand to be respected as a nation while we allow ourselves to be directed so as not to respect Greece.
For some, everything that originates from ancient Greece is marketable and global without saying that their intention is to remove a piece – part of our true root.
If at some point we don't react , in the end only the fustanelles will be left to display in our museums as a nation and a state, born and existing only from 1821.
If we don't react, at some point our great-grandchildren will know the Acropolis as the house of Karaiskakis.
Undeniable example we as the great grandchildren of some others that all we know is what they offered us.
If you take a look at the books of Ancient Greek Writing, you will find that everything has reached our hands, it is what the Europeans have written about us.
Even the pronunciation of the Ancient Greek language was studied for the first time by Renaissance Europeans and was officially proposed by the Dutch Erasmus to be established with the acceptance of all as the Erasmian pronunciation.
Let us finally take our fate into our own hands and decide for ourselves.
If we do not react against the tactics of extermination of us as a Nation, we will be responsible for the dreams our children will create and the identity they will have when they create them.
The Hellenic state party calls everyone to a protest with a work stoppage and abstinence from any activity on the day of the receipt 30 April 2014 which will take place at the Panathenaic Stadium.
We invite all political parties that recognize the intention of this action by the actors and the Greek government, join us by rebroadcasting and adopting this bloodless proposal of ours as a protest. It is our duty as Greeks to resist what is intended to erode our true roots .
It is our duty to stand with our heads high as Greeks.
All together.
A voice.
Greece lives.
