[MGSA-L] "Let's rid this country of the stench" («για να ξεβρωμίσει ο τόπος»)

[Christos D. Katsetos]

Video clips from two documentary films are presented below in response to 
the campaign slogan «για να ξεβρωμίσει ο τόπος» ("Let's rid this country of the 
stench") embraced by Greece's rising ultranationalist party*, and also, in response
to the comments made, during a recent television interview, by the leading
MP-at-large" designate of the other ideologically-akin far-right competitor party, 
who rose to the occasion, advocating the creation of "free labor detention camps"
as a strategic measure of deterrence and a final solution to Greece's illegal 
immigration problem.
