Greeks are neither monarchists, nor venizelians. And whoever gets involved in this futile controversy is actually committing an enormous strategic error, as he is choosing something in order to avoid something else, while he is under the impression that he is actually making a good move. In strategy, when they present you with two choices, chose the third if you don’t want to lose. Regarding the Annan Plan, they gave us two options with the A and B maps, re: the territorial issue, and just as well we’ve rejected them, because we chose the liberation and not some sort of slavery by ourselves. In the case of the monarchists and venizelians, every faction is trying to explain to us that they did their duty, and that the others were the traitors etc. In actual fact they are both right, although in an odd way, since they both in fact did their duty but towards their faction and that alone, and never for the benefit of the homeland. Therefore, they both are right in regards to the second part, since the combination of their actions brought catastrophe to Greece and nothing else. Now, for all those who assume that they acted in the context of the Great Idea alone, they are forgetting that no idea could be great if it’s not strategic, and additionally, that the regions which were actually liberated and not merely occasionally, did so, just after foreign forces intervened or otherwise, and certainly not due to internal actions. Because both the factions were hopelessly incompetent, both as monarchists and as coup attempters. And they didn’t in fact comprehend what the notion of democracy really was, as much as they otherwise pretended.
