I beg your pardon? That's literally the definition of a concentration camp. Hell, even the OP of that post admitted that he defined concentration camp incorrectly.

I'm more clearing up the definition so that people don't use it incorrectly, but yeah, that's pretty close.

Voluntarily.

They joined the CoE in 1949. They then signed up to the convention in 1960, 21 years before they became a member of the EEC. (By the way, Greece lied about their economic situation to get membership, so you can't say they were bullied at that point either)

Thanks. I have to ask because lately the EU has been getting demanding on its subjects. So it's worth checking. And I don't have the time to google stuff right now.

The President of the EU Commission has called Greece 'Europe's Shield' and the EU supports Greece's defense of Europe's borders. The entire leadership of the EU came to Greece to show their support of Greece during the Evros crisis. The EU stated more than once that it hasn't found any evidence we are violating any laws. As such, Greece has the support of the EU in protecting the border of the Union.

I think that's because AntiFa really isn't an organization. It's a loose band of like-minded people, some more radical than others (the actual people I have problems with).

Greece is a sovereign country. International law is bullshit unless you have the balls to enforce it.

There will be consequences for reneging on a treaty voluntarily signed. Most likely these consequences will be being pushed out of the international sandbox. If Greece decides to split on the refugee accords like this, the I can guarantee the larger EU will decide that all these handouts they're getting might be better used given back to the constituents they came from.

You people need to stop calling this a genocide. The Greeks are not genociding anyone. If someone tries to break into your home because he is hungry and you leave him on your front lawn to starve to death that isn't murder.

Agreed and countless more examples. International Law is just fancy talk for trying to spread neo liberalism and open borders regardless of the cost.

Even if Antifa doesn't stand for actual anti-Fascist values, the whole unifying factor for the movement is punching self-avowed Fascists in the face. That's somewhat adversarial, if you ask me.

The EU Commission has called Greece 'Europe's Shield' and came out in support of us. Brussels has more than once dismissed left wing MEPs accusing falsely Greece. The EU has also pledged to hand money to Greece to boost its border defense. If anything, the EU leadership is glad Greece is stopping illegal immigration (for multiple reasons, ranging from weakening of populist right to taking away a weapon of Erdogan).

The National Socialist party was exactly representative of their National Socialist ideology. Try to pretend that National Socialism is the same as socialism is utter bullshit. But you know that. Get better material.

I am sympathetic to Greece bearing the brunt of this crisis in the Mideast. The solution is to ask the EU to contribute more funds not to drop people in the ocean.
