Alexrpt — Why America will never let Greece leave the Eurozone. Merkel will fold like origami to Greek demands

I conclude that the plan is still regime change in Greece. So I don't think that Merkel is necessarily going to fold. After all, the eurocrats are a lot stronger than Syriza, so the belief still is that Syriza can be taken down. The real question is whether the neoliberalism will permit an avowedly leftist government in Europe. I don't think so. And the US doesn't want this either. If push comes to shove, there will be a military coup if historical precedent is any guide. The problem is that Greece doesn't fit the profile of a neoliberal country and it is setting a bad example. That has to change one way or another. Increasing social democracy or socialism is not acceptable.
