This is Radio FREE ATHENS

Greeks! The German invaders are on the outskirts of Athens.
Brothers! Keep alive in your souls the spirit of the front
The invaders are coming to a deserted city with its homes closed to them.
Greeks! Keep your heads held high.
Attention, the radio station of Athens will in a short time no longer be Greek. It will be German and spreading lies.
Greeks, don't listen. we will continue to fight until the final victory.
LONG LIVE THE GREEK NATION!

Reuters. Greek sovereignty was further undermined by eurozone leaders today, as Germany demanded a "durable" supervision on the ground of its economic policy-making under the terms of a second €130 billion bail-out.
The new rescue package, which comes with a 50 percent debt cut by private lenders and is to run until 2020, will include a "monitoring capacity on the ground" instead of current visits every three months by the troika of European Commission, International Monetary Fund (IMF) and European Central Bank lenders, the summit communique said.
The aim of the mission will be to "advise and offer assistance in order to ensure the timely and full implementation of the reforms."
German Chancellor Angela Merkel pushed for the permanent presence instead of the current set-up, which sees the troika "coming and going every three months."
In a dark blue jacket reflecting the mood in and about the eurozone, Merkel abandoned her usual cautious rhetoric warned outright of a war.
"Nobody should take for granted another 50 years of peace and prosperity in Europe. They are not for granted. That's why I say: If the euro fails, Europe fails," Merkel said, followed by a long applause from all political groups.
"We have a historical obligation: To protect by all means Europe's unification process begun by our forefathers."

And the Greek heroes of 1940 wept.
