Guess who is hiding behind Greece's monetary failure?

Guess. Because that's what it is - only a guess.
It is, however, informed by decades of reflexion on the vicissitudes of history.

For their - and consequently our - economic troubles, the Greeks have no one to blame but themselves.
There is no need to go into detail at this point.
What matters is that they appear to be unusually keen on leaving the Euro-zone and the EU altogether, at least judging by assorted media reports and articles.

Or are they?
True to their nature, Greeks are not the best of team players.
They are also (and quite understandably, up to a point) cynical about governments in general, and their own goverment in particular.

This is always a dangerous situation, because despondency can lead to apathy, and apathy naturally makes place for more active players to take over.

Which is why Greece is the perfect tinder box for power-hungry forces, both inside and outside the country. All they have to do is to encourage and fuel the most destructive of attitudes, hoping the situation will eventually spiral into a desperate need for a "saviour".

Can Greece survive "alone", i.e. outside the European Union?
It is debatable. What does "survive" mean?

Would it fare better, at the very least?
Again, it is doubtful.

A more likely scenario is that it would partner with some other country who could offer - if not necessarily deliver - the security and "respect" that Greece apparently feels it lacks in the EU.

Now ask yourself: who on Earth could have an interest in a would-be renegade member of the European Union, a country in the deep south of Europe, with ports on the Mediterranean, and conveniently close to that other tinder box, which is also the "gateway" to the Middle East, that is Turkey?

And who would this same would-be renegade member of the EU be likely to accept, perhaps even invite (not publicly, of course), as its "saviour", for historical and religion-based cultural reasons?

Could it be the same power that remains hidden behind the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, to name just one major global mess?

Think about it.
Someone has to.
