Greek debt crisis is the Iraq War of finance

Guardians of financial stability are deliberately provoking a bank run
and endangering Europe's system in their zeal to force Greece to its knees

 Rarely in modern times have we witnessed such a display of petulance
and bad judgment by those supposed to be in charge of global financial
stability, and by those who set the tone for the Western world.

The spectacle is astonishing. The European Central Bank, the EMU
bail-out fund, and the International Monetary Fund, among others, are
lashing out in fury against an elected government that refuses to do
what it is told. They entirely duck their own responsibility for five
years of policy blunders that have led to this impasse.
