EDITORIAL

Empty words aren’t enough The international financial crisis that has engulfed the economies of the developed world in the last few weeks is, to a large extent, the result of a collapse in confidence. In fact, it is both interesting and stunning to see Wall Street take a plunge each time that United States President George W. Bush or other officials in his administration choose to make a public statement about the ongoing financial meltdown.

EDITORIAL:AthensPlus

A deluge of despair n the last nine months, close to 11,000 illegal immigrants were intercepted by the coast guard as they tried to enter Greece through the eastern islands that lie close to Turkey. Some are dumped on islets by smugglers using super-fast boats that can cover the distance from Turkish waters to Greek territory in five minutes, before heading back to safety, leaving the Greeks to pick up the burden of human misery shivering on the Aegean's bare rocks.
