EDITOR’S NOTE: As you can see in the photos, SYRIZA leader Stephanos Kasselakis took advantage of the special provisions of the Greek Law for Diaspora Greeks and appeared today at an enlistment center of the Greek Army near Athens. Tens of photographers followed him for the whole day before he finally arrived there at about 4 p.m.

Instead of any other comments, I decided to go back down memory lane, when I was growing up in Piraeus, playing the “shadow theater,” Karagiozis, was a part of our life. TV arrived in Greece in the late 1970s, and then only for a couple of hours a day.  One of the most beloved players of Karagiozis was Evgenios Spatharis and here is his masterful play: “Karagiozis enlists in the military!!”

  1. Εύχομαι στο φανταράκι “καλή θητεία και… καλός πολίτης.” Αναμφίβολα άλλοι του λένε να κάνει έρωτα, όχι πόλεμο.

    Το ωραίο είναι που τα έβαλε με τους μητροπολίτες, λέγοντας ότι είναι ορθόδοξος και αν τολμούν ας τον βγάλουν από το ναό! Του απάντησε ο Μητροπολίτης Κέρκυρας ότι στην εκκλησία είναι ευπρόσδεκτοι όλοι οι αμαρτωλοί που μετανοούν, άρα τον περιμένουν.

    Καλός πολίτης, φανταράκι! Ο Θεός να βάλει το χέρι Του στα χάλια που βρισκόμαστε.

    I convey to the aspiring prime minister the wish we give to every teenager on his way to military service: “Have a good service and come out a good citizen!”. (I resist the temptation of saying “make love, not war!”)

    It was reported that the gay Marxist leader of the opposition declared himself an Orthodox Christian and “dared” the bishops to throw him out when he enters a church. The Metropolitan of Corfu responded that the Church welcomes all sinners who repent, so they await his arrival…

  2. Kasselakis is not just a sinner like rest of us… the snowflake is mainly a tool of Diabolo and couldn’t care less about Jesus Christ and His divine laws so long as he can stench up Church.
