ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΟ ΚΕΙΜΕΝΟ:

Αγαπητέ μου Walτer Wuellenweber, ονομάζομαι Γεώργιος Π. Ψωμάς. Είμαι δημόσιος λειτουργός κι όχι υπάλληλος, όπως κατά κόρον τα ΜΜΕ των «συμπατριωτών» σου (μου) και άλλων «συμπατριωτών» σου (μου) αναφέρουν, ως βρισιά και με περίσσεια χλεύη. Ο μισθός μου είναι 1.000. Το μήνα, όχι την ημέρα, όπως ίσως σ’ έχουν παρασύρει, να νομίζεις. Ούτε 1.000 λιγότερα από σένα.

Από το 1981 ανήκουμε στην ίδια οικογένεια. Μόνο που σας έχουμε παραχωρήσει με αδιαφανείς όρους κι’ έναντι αυτών των 200 δις που λέτε, ότι μας δώσατε, το 40% περίπου των αμυντικών εξοπλισμών μας, το σύνολο σχεδόν των εθνικών τηλεπικοινωνιών μας, την κατασκευή 2 μεγάλων αεροδρομίων καθώς και πολλών χιλιομέτρων εθνικού οδικού δικτύου. Αν ξεχνώ κάτι, ζητώ να με συγχωρέσεις. Σημειώνω, πως είμαστε από τους μεγαλύτερους εισαγωγείς στα καταναλωτικά προϊόντα που παράγουν τα εργοστάσιά σας.

Η αλήθεια είναι, πως δεν ευθύνονται μόνο οι πολιτικοί μας γι’ αυτή την καταστροφή. Ένα μεγάλο μέρος της ευθύνης έχει και μια εταιρία γερμανικών κυρίως συμφερόντων, η οποία τους λάδωνε, για ν’ αναλαμβάνει, όπως λέω παραπάνω, δημόσια έργα (βλ. C4Ι). Πιθανολογώ, πως φταίνε και τα γερμανικά ναυπηγεία, τα οποία μας πούλησαν κάτι υποβρύχια, που γέρνουν. Είμαι σίγουρος, ότι εσύ δεν με πιστεύεις ακόμα, αλλά δείξε λίγο υπομονή και περίμενε, διάβασέ με, κι αν δεν σε πείσω, τότε διώξε με από την Ευρωζώνη, τον τόπο της Αλήθειας και της Ευημερίας, του Δίκαιου και του Σωστού.

Λοιπόν Walτer, μισός αιώνας και πάνω πέρασε από τη λήξη του Β΄ Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου, από τότε που η Γερμανία έπρεπε να ξοφλήσει τις υποχρεώσεις της προς την Ελλάδα. Οι οφειλές αυτές, που μόνον η Γερμανία αρνείται να ξοφλήσει στην Ελλάδα (η Βουλγαρία και η Ρουμανία, τακτοποίησαν ήδη τις αντίστοιχες υποχρεώσεις τους), συνίστανται:
α) Σε χρέη ύψους 80 εκατομμυρίων γερμανικών μάρκων, από τον Α΄ Παγκόσμιο Πόλεμο.

β) Σε χρέη από τη διαφορά του κλήριγκ στο μεσοπόλεμο, ύψους 593.873.000 δολαρίων, που ήταν σε βάρος της Γερμανίας.

γ) Στα αναγκαστικά δάνεια, τα οποία συνήψε το Γ΄ Ράιχ από την Ελλάδα, ύψους 3,5 δισεκατομμυρίων δολαρίων, στη διάρκεια της κατοχής.

δ) Στις επανορθώσεις, που οφείλει η Γερμανία στην Ελλάδα, για τις κατασχέσεις, αρπαγές και καταστροφές, που της προξένησε το Γ’ Ράιχ, την περίοδο της κατοχής, ύψους 7,1 δισεκατομμυρίων δολαρίων, όπως επεδίκασαν οι Σύμμαχοι.

ε) Στις ανυπολόγιστες υποχρεώσεις της Γερμανίας για την αφαίρεση της ζωής 1.125.960 Ελλήνων (38.960 εκτελεσμένων, 12.000 νεκρών από αδέσποτες, 70.000 σκοτωμένων σε μάχες, 105.000 νεκρών στα στρατόπεδα της Γερμανίας, 600.000 νεκρών από πείνα και 300.000 απωλειών από υπογεννητικότητα).
στ) Στην ατίμητη ηθική προσβολή, που προξένησε στον ελληνικό λαό και στις ανθρωπιστικές ιδέες που εκφράζει η ελληνική ιδέα. Αυτό το πρόβλημα δεν είναι οικονομικό, είναι ηθικής τάξης, ύψιστης ηθικής αξίας.

Ξέρω Walτer, σε πειράζουν αυτά που γράφω, αλλά και μένα με πείραξαν, αυτά που έγραψες! Αλλά περισσότερο με πειράζουν, αυτά που σκέφτεσαι και θέλεις να κάνεις για μένα και τους «συμπατριώτες» σου, τους Έλληνες !
Walτer, φίλτατε Walτer, στην Ελλάδα δραστηριοποιούνται 130 γερμανικές επιχειρήσεις, στις οποίες, περιλαμβάνονται σχεδόν όλοι οι γερμανικοί κολοσσοί, οι οποίες πραγματοποιούν ετήσιο τζίρο της τάξης των 6,5 δισ. ευρώ.
Ξέρεις Walτer, σύντομα δε θα μπορώ ν’ αγοράζω Γερμανικά προϊόντα, γιατί δεν θά έχω λεφτά. Εγώ Walτer μεγάλωσα στα λίγα, θα τ’ αντέξω. Και μην ανησυχείς για τους νέους στην Ελλάδα, είμαστε ακόμα πολλοί παλιοί, για να τους βοηθήσουμε, να εξοικειωθούν στη νέα κατάσταση. Αλλά εσείς βρε Walτer, τους ανέργους σας, που θα δημιουργηθούν από την κατάσταση αυτή στην Ελλάδα, πως θα τους αντιμετωπίσετε;

Πες μου σε παρακαλώ, έχω απορία: Εμείς οι Έλληνες πρέπει να φύγουμε από την Ευρώπη, την Ευρωζώνη (κι απ’ όπου αλλού θέλετε, εσείς, οι Γερμανοί, οι Σουηδοί, οι Ολλανδοί και λοιποί «συμπατριώτες). Πρέπει να φύγουμε, για να σωθούμε από μια Ένωση, κατ’ επίφαση. Από μια ομάδα κερδοσκόπων. Από μια ομάδα, στην οποία είμαστε συμπαίκτες, όσο καταναλώναμε τα προϊόντα των συμπαικτών!

Εγώ φίλτατε Walτer, πιστεύω, ότι οι Έλληνες θα πρέπει να σταματήσουν ν’ αγοράζουν Mercedes, BMW, Opel, Ford, Scoda, κλπ. συμμαχικά προϊόντα, γιατί, δεν μπορούν και δεν πρέπει! Δεν το αξίζουν. Θα πρέπει να σταματήσουν ν’ αγοράζουν προϊόντα από το Lidl, το Praktiker και το IKEA. Γιατί δε θα μπορούν πια να τ’ αγοράσουν αυτά τα προϊόντα, βρε αδερφέ, τι να κάνουμε!
Φίλτατε Walτer, θα πρέπει να κανονίσουμε και κάποιες άλλες «λεπτομέρειες» . αν μου επιτρέπεις βέβαια, γιατί εσύ είσαι ο «πιστωτής» της ζωής μου. Ξέρεις βρε φίλε Walτer, θέλω να μου επιστρέψεις τον ΠΟΛΙΤΙΣΜΟ μου, που έκλεψες εσύ (όχι ΕΣΥ βεβαίως, αλλά κάποιοι ΔΙΚΟΙ ΣΟΥ), θέλω τα ΑΘΑΝΑΤΑ ΔΗΜΙΟΥΡΓΗΜΑΤΑ ΤΩΝ ΠΡΟΓΟΝΩΝ ΜΟΥ, που βρίσκονται στα Μουσεία του Βερολίνου, του Μονάχου, του Λονδίνου, του Παρισιού, της Ρώμης! Τα θέλω τώρα, που μπορεί να πεθάνω, αλλά θέλω να πεθάνω, κοντά στους πατέρες μου!

GERMAN TEXT

Dear Walter Wuellenweber, my name is George P. Psomas.

I am a public official and not official, as ad nauseam in the media of “compatriots” your (my) and other “fellow” your (my) state, as insult and ridicule excess.

My salary is 1,000. This month, not days, as you might to have drifted to think. Nor 1,000 less than you.

Since 1981 we belong to the same family.

Only you have given with opaque terms and ‘against those 200 billion that you say that you gave us about 40% of defense equipment, we

almost all of our national telecommunications, the construction of 2 major airports and many kilometers of national roads. If I forget something, I ask you to forgive me.

I note that we are the largest importers of consumer products produced by your factory.

The truth is that there are only responsible for our politicians to this destruction.

A large part of responsibility is a company mainly German interests which the Ladon, on n ‘take, as I said above, public works (see C4I).

Speculation, that blame the German shipyards, we sold something underwater, drooping. I am sure that you do not believe me yet,

but show a little patience and waited, I read on, though not to convince you, then persecution from the Eurozone, the place of Truth and Prosperity, the Fair and the Right.

Well Walter, and over half a century passed from the end of the Second World War, since Germany had to xoflisei its obligations to Greece. The debts,

which only Germany refused to xoflisei Greece (Bulgaria and Romania have already arranged their respective obligations)

consist of:

a) debts of 80 million DM from the First World War.

b) debt from the difference klirigk the interwar period, totaling $ 593,873,000, which was against Germany.

c) The forced loans, which concluded the Third Reich from Greece, amounting to $ 3.5 billion, during the occupation.

d) On reparations,

due from Germany to Greece for the seizures, looting and destruction that’s caused the Third Reich, the occupation period, totaling $ 7.1 billion,

epedikasan as the Allies.

e) On incalculable obligations of Germany for the removal of Greek life 1,125,960 (38,960 executed, 12,000 dead from stray, 70,000 killed in battle,

105,000 dead in the camps in Germany, 600,000 dead from hunger and 300,000 losses from low birth rates).

f) In atimiti moral attack, which caused the Greek people and the humanitarian ideas expressed by the Greek idea.

This problem is not financial, it is ethical, supreme moral value.

I know Walter, do you mind what I write, and teased me with, what you wrote!

But more teasing, what you think and want to do for me and the ‘compatriots’ you, the Greeks!

Walter, beloved Walter,

operating in Greece 130 German companies, which included nearly all the German giants, which have an annual turnover of 6.5 billion

euro.

You know Walter, you soon will I be able to buy German products, because they would not have any money. Walter I grew up in a few, will ‘t stand it.

And do not worry about young people in Greece are still many old, to help them to become accustomed to the new situation. But you VRE Walter, unemployed, you

created by the situation in Greece, how you deal with them?

Tell me please, I wonder: We Greeks have to leave Europe

Eurozone (and from wherever you wish, you, Germans, Swedes, Dutch and other ‘compatriots). We gotta go, to be saved from a union, ostensibly.

From a group of speculators. From a team, we are teammates, but consuming your teammates!

I beloved Walter, I believe that Greeks should stop n ‘buy Mercedes, BMW, Opel, Ford, Scoda, etc. allied products, because it can not and should not! Not worth it.

You should stop n ‘buy products from Lidl, Praktiker and the IKEA. Why you will no longer be ‘t buy these products, well bro, what to do!

Beloved Walter should arrange some other “details”. if I may, of course, because you’re the “creditor” of my life. You know VRE friend Walter,

I want me back in my culture, who stole you (not you of course, but some OWN), like the immortal creations of my ancestors,

found in museums in Berlin, Munich, London, Paris, Rome! I want it now, can die, but I want to die close to my fathers!

ΓΕΡΜΑΝΙΚΟ ΚΕΙΜΕΝΟ:

Αγαπητοί ΕΛΛΗΝΕΣ, από το 1981 ανήκουμε στην ίδια οικογένεια. Μόνο που εμείς έχουμε συνεισφέρει, όσο κανείς άλλος στο κοινό ταμείο, δηλαδή γύρω στα 200 δις, ενώ εσείς έχετε, αντίθετα, εισπράξει κατά κεφαλήν, όσα κανείς άλλος, δηλαδή σχεδόν 100 δις. Ουδέποτε λαός βοήθησε μέχρι τώρα με τη θέλησή του, σε τέτοιο βαθμό, και για τόσο μακρύ διάστημα, άλλον λαό. Είσαστε, κυριολεκτικά, οι πιο ακριβοί μας φίλοι.

Το ζήτημα πάντως είναι, ότι τελικά δεν εξαπατάτε μόνο τον εαυτό σας αλλά κι’ εμάς. Στην ουσία, ουδέποτε φανήκατε αντάξιοι του ευρώ, μιας και παρά την εισαγωγή του, δεν καταφέρατε μέχρι τώρα να εκπληρώσετε τα κριτήρια σταθερότητας.
Στην ΕΕ είσαστε ο λαός που ξοδεύει τα μεγαλύτερα ποσά σε καταναλωτικά αγαθά. Θα θέλαμε, ο πρωθυπουργός σας Γ. Παπανδρέου να προχωρήσει στο πρόγραμμά του, όμως προφανώς αυτό δεν το θέλετε εσείς, αφού συνεχίζετε απτόητοι, ν’ απεργείτε. Μη μας λέτε λοιπόν, ότι μόνο οι πολιτικοί ευθύνονται για την καταστροφή. Εσείς έχετε εφεύρει τη Δημοκρατία κι ως εκ τούτου θα πρέπει να γνωρίζετε, ότι ο λαός είναι αυτός που κυβερνά κι επομένως, έχει και την ευθύνη. Κανείς δεν σας αναγκάζει να φοροδιαφεύγετε, να χρηματίζεστε, ν’ αντιδράτε σε κάθε συνετή πολιτική και να εκλέγετε διεφθαρμένους πολιτικούς. Σε τελευταία ανάλυση, οι πολιτικοί είναι λαϊκιστές και κάνουν, ότι τους πει ο λαός. Θα μας πείτε, βεβαίως, ότι κι εμείς οι Γερμανοί δεν είμαστε πολύ καλύτεροι, όπως θέλουν κάποιοι να πιστεύουν. Κι έχετε δίκιο.

Οι Έλληνες είναι εκείνοι, που μας είχαν δείξει το δρόμο της Δημοκρατίας και της Φιλοσοφίας, καθώς και τις πρώτες γνώσεις Εθνικής Οικονομίας. Τώρα μας δείχνετε και πάλι το δρόμο. Μόνο που αυτή τη φορά, είναι λάθος δρόμος. Κι από το σημείο που εσείς έχετε τώρα φτάσει, δεν πάει παραπέρα.

GERMAN TEXT

Dear Greeks!

Do you know in your country the kind of money-aunt that for all childhood and youth has been feeding your piggy bank? The first bike, the first radio, your first vacation, she always added a few bills. And she expected nothing more than a friendly “Thank you” every once in a while.

Dear friends, this is a letter from your money-aunt. Don't worry, you're not even expected to say thank you.

The thing we are hoping for: Put yourself in our situation. Since 1981, over 29 years, we belong to the same family, the EU. In this time no other member of the family has paid as much money into the common budget as we did, a net of 200 billion Euro. And per capita nobody has received vaguely as much as you, altogether almost 100 billion net. About half of what we have poured into the EU pot, you have skimmed off with a big ladle.

In other words: Statistically over the years we Germans have given all you Greeks, from infant to the elderly, a gift of more than 9,000 Euro. Wasn't that nice, right? Probably there has never been a people voluntarily and generously supporting another people over such a long period of time. You truly are our dearest friends.

You have never asked how we fared in all those years . I suspect that even today you don't really want to hear anything about our worries But I'll tell you anyway:

Our roads are full of holes like old buildings because we lack the money for maintenance. Libraries and swimming pools have to be closed.  At night some cities have to turn off every other street light because otherwise they can't pay the electricity bill.

Since the introduction of the Euro unlike your wage increases our wages have had virtually no increase at all. And now we are expected to save you Greeks. That concern is just what we have been missing.

You did fairly earn our distrust: Every summer you set ablaze this beautiful land that God has given you and then you call for our fire department because you can't extinguish it yourself.

All of  you want to work in public service, but no one wants to pay taxes. If only a part of the reports that we read in the last few weeks are true, then you are only willing to work after you receive a bribe. Especially your doctors and hospital staff seem to ask for big bribes.  You are cheating yourselves whenever you can get away with it.

That does not matter to us. But you also deceive us. For many years. About that we do care. You collected EU subsidies for more olive trees than fit in all your country.

Obviously, you know something about accounting; to meet the stability criteria for the Euro you have systematically cooked and falsified your books; for years you've done that so well that [the EU government in] Brussels has not noticed anything.

In truth you have never deserved the Euro. Despite your fake data, since the introduction of the Euro Greece has never been able to meet the stability criteria. In 2006 you came up with  a neat sleight of hand to enlarge your GDP: You  just added the proceeds from money laundering, drug trafficking and smuggling in the annual economic output of your proud nation.

It just will not work out over decades to continually spend more money than you earn, to continually live out of other people's pockets, to continually deceive and trick – it never works out okay. Eventually the house of cards will collapse. Eventually is now. Strictly spoken you are bankrupt, bust.

Have no illusions. If [German chancellor] Angela Merkel promises "Greece will not be left alone" she is more concerned about us Germans than you Greeks. Our only concern is for our own future The trouble is: We are chained to you. If you drown, you draw us under water as well.

For example by the 300 billion debt, which you piled up over the years. About 30 billion of which belong to savers in German banks, given to you in the form of government bonds. Will you ever repay that?

Because of you the Euro is in free fall. We are facing inflation. This means that German savings accounts and life insurances for the future will always be worth less and less. And that is because of you. 

Of course you are strangers to such thoughts, for saving or investing is not your thing. You prefer to just spend  your funds. In the EU, Greeks are the people that squander by far most of their money for consumption.

The EU leaders have indeed decided that you should not receive any direct financial aid. For now. But you need help. And in the EU help in the end means more money; more precisely, our money.

Slowly it becomes clear to Germans: First, we had to rescue banks, now we need to save the Greeks and eventually all PIIG countries with rotten economies; the PIIGS are Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, Spain.

A national bankruptcy of any one of these countries, experts exceptionally agree, would be a tragedy; the banking crisis would appear to be a comedy compared to this. Wise German constitutional lawyers have warned before the introduction of the Euro, warned that an Economic Union will not work without a political union.

They were right. Now we see the dramatic democratic deficit. We Germans depend on decisions of the Government of Greece. But we can not elect it. Only you Greeks can elect it, but you have completely different interests. We want your Prime Minister Georgios Papandreou to runs his austerity program. At least that. It would even be better if he accelerated the reforms.

But obviously you don't want that. You do what you always do: Your go on strike. Last week the public sector, next week all of you in a general strike.

Dear Greeks, if you go on strike next week, if you demonstrate, then you do not you protest against your government but against us. The Zorro, who has always saved you and whom you expect to do even more saving, that guy you kick right between his knees.

Dear Greek IRS officers, please do not go on strike next week, but finally get the taxes due from your millionaires by whom you have been royally paid for looking the other direction.

Dear Greek doctors, please do not go on strike next week but treat your patients; from now on without first asking for a money envelope. And then just pay the taxes on your income. Yes you have to order the next Porsche a year later. You will survive.

Dear retired Greeks, when in our country someone worked all his life he gets not even 40% of his average income as a pension. We are on the fourth place from last among the OECD countries.

And who is number one? Correct: You. Over 95% of your average income you allow yourselves as a pension. To get this done you again get deep into the bag of tricks:
You simply determine the amount of pension benefits not on the whole life, but only on the last three to five years of employment. Usually your employer pays you considerably more towards the end and again this increases your pensions. From the money that we have sponsored you with for almost 30 years, you have allowed yourselves a more comfortable retirement than we can afford. Does that seem fair to you?

So, dear pensioners in Greece: You are the generation that has caused this misery. Now is the time to keep the feet still, do not go to demonstrate and let the government pull through their savings plans.

And, dear citizens of Greece, do not excuse yourselves by saying that solely your politicians are to blame for the disaster. You did invent democracy and you should know that you, the people, govern and therefore are responsible. No one is forcing you to evade taxes, to accept bribes, to strike against any sound policy and to elect corrupt politicians.

Politicians are populists. They do exactly what you want. Surely some of you will now argue: You Germans, you are not better off at all. Right. A pension scheme in which nobody has any trust anymore. Pensions for civil servants that no one knows how to pay for in the future. A tax system that looks as invented  by experienced tax evaders. Above all a mountain of debt on a slippery slope that eventually will bury everything – we too have exactly these problems. And on this path of vice you're not as far ahead of us as many believe.

Long ago you Greeks have led the way, you have given democracy to the world, philosophy and first understanding of national economics.

Now you show us the way again.

Only this time it is the wrong path.

Where you are is a dead end road.

Sincerely, [signed] Walter Wüllenweber [editor at Der Stern magazine]
