Greece’s Roman Road

Chapter 280: Jews of Thessaloniki

"Greek-Roman Road (!

Due to the intentional or unintentional containment of the local Greek banks led by the three major banks, Jewish capital has always been crowded out in the Greek banking industry.

After all, the Greeks themselves are also very good at business. Secondly, before the independence of modern Greece, the Greeks were also living in exile around the world, which is somewhat similar to the Jews.

Secondly, Constantine did not want Jews to be like a fish in water in the Greek financial industry, so he also supported this attitude of the three major banks.

Jews have a huge influence in the European financial industry. Behind the historical origin, even the banking industry is inseparable from the Jews.

European financial centers, whether Amsterdam or London, provided the stage for Jewish capital.

The various Jewish banks are inextricably linked, woven into an all-encompassing web of relationships that connects the entire Western world.

Probably influenced by the Jewish conspiracy theories of later generations, such as the argument that Jews control the whole world by relying on money, etc., Constantine was instinctively disgusted and wary of this financial network.

Even in New York, the financial center of the New World, Jewish capital is still the absolute protagonist.

Finance is a very sensitive and important industry, involving almost all aspects of social production, and it is widely involved. Constantine did not trust Jews.

The Jews have been immersed in the banking industry for five or six hundred years. Once Greece completely liberalizes the banking restrictions to them, I am afraid that the Greek banks will be at a disadvantage in the competition with the Jewish banks, which will make the Jewish banks bigger.

When Robert made these demands to improve the status of the Jewish people through the Greek government, although it was beyond Constantine's expectations, it did not surprise him.

"Mr. Robert, if your demands are not met, will the Rothschild Bank refuse to help the Greek government issue bonds?" Prime Minister Venizelos asked with a serious expression.

Robert's three proposals are completely unacceptable to current Greece, because they are in conflict with Greece's core interests.

Just like the field of education, after so many years of development, although there are some Albanians in Albania who are probably bewitched and supported by the Italians, although they lose money every year, and the students are not very useful after studying, there are still dozens of schools. Albanian language school, in operator.

According to the report of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff, these Albanian language schools receive hundreds of thousands of liras of financial assistance from Italy every year.

Without the support of these foreign funds, learning the Albanian language would have no effect. Whether living or working in Greece, various social and economic organizations and official institutions only require Greek language, and do not care about the so-called Albanian language at all. It is Albanian spelled in Greek letters.

Although the Greek government has repeatedly tried to cut off these apparently unscrupulous Italian foreign funds, these funds are all in the name of Albanian expatriates living in southern Italy to support the cultural cause of their own nation. The Italian government's protest did not take direct action, but only kept the intelligence officers closely watching.

If the Greek government now allows Jews to open schools in their own national language, will it have a demonstrative effect on other ethnic groups in Greece?

And then the same demand for the same rights?

There are also examples of allowing the Jews to buy land like the Greeks.

In 1831, the Austrian government appealed to the Rothschild family due to financial difficulties.

Solomon Rothschild took the opportunity to write to Prime Minister Metternich with a request.

He wrote: "I am now making a presumptuous request on behalf of myself and my brothers that we should have the right to purchase real and other substantial property within the Austrian Empire. I am well aware that this request is contrary to the provisions of the law. However, hope for mercy The wise His Highness can be extrajudicial. And I have a hunch that if His Highness has the slightest willingness, your hard work will surely succeed in persuading the most merciful and enlightened monarch (referring to the King of Austria)

Even though the Jewish banker was financially strong, but not angry, the request was rejected by the Austrian authorities, and he was still not allowed to own real estate.

Opening up the right to purchase land to Jews, allowing them to buy real estate at will, would also cause problems.

It is well known that the Jews are a very united nation. Once the Greek government lifts the restrictions on the purchase of land by Jews, it is conceivable that the Jews will immediately purchase a large amount of land around Thessaloniki and hand them over to the Jews to manage them. A much larger Jewish ghetto.

These lands have since then belonged entirely to the Jews.

And now there are more than 300,000 Jews living in Thessaloniki. Any Greek will feel weird when they come to this and the famous Greek city in history. There are Jews wearing Fitz hats everywhere on the streets, but they rarely see them. to the Jews.

This feeling is more like going to a foreign country.

On the contrary, the Jews are more like the masters there.

This issue has been widely debated in Greece since the end of the First Balkan War.

The officers and soldiers of the Macedonian Legion in Greece have complained to the outside world more than once that Macedonia is not so much a Greek city as a Jewish city, where Greeks are a minority.

After all, Greece fought two Balkan wars for this city and lost tens of thousands of soldiers. Then there are Jews everywhere in the city. This absurd status quo obviously makes the mainstream public opinion in Greece very dissatisfied.

In addition, the Jewish political stance of Thessaloniki is also unacceptable to the Greek people and has a grudge against them.

These Jews are close to the Ottoman government!

Especially during the two wars, many Jews were found to reveal to the outside world the case of Greece's military deployment.

From a Jewish point of view, this may be easy to understand.

The Ottoman authorities initially allowed Jews to move to Thessaloniki on a large scale, including the political intention of diluting the local Greeks~www.wuxiax.com~ In order to win over the Jews, the Ottoman authorities made a lot of promises to them, and they were highly regarded in Europe. The ostracized Jews readily accepted.

In fact, the Jews did this very well.

If the Greek government now also allows Jews to freely buy and sell land in Thessaloniki, and the living space is greatly improved, I am afraid that the number of Jews in Thessaloniki will increase.

In a few years, the number of Jews there will rise from more than 300,000 to a million.

The people of Greece cannot accept such a thing, and the Greek government is also reluctant to see the number of Jews in Thessaloniki expand further.
