[bogazici86]

yeah, what a pity for that fires. I hope everything gets better and nobody dies any more and no other forests fires. these are all very sad events. I know what it means because we have this kind of fires in Turkey, too. but when the people dies in addition to fires, it is very very sad

[patrickgarrigan@blueyonde]

We recently had terrific holiday in Kefallonia, they had had bad hillside fires, and while we were there we saw on TV fires near Athens.
Has a relief fund been set up for thse affected ?

[veronika_pooh]

Yes,here is burning too,we have some villages that burned out,and people say they won't go to live there again...We also have few,who diedIt's like hell on earthIn Greece is much more worse of course...I pray for this to end...

like a grandma' that tried to bake something (not cook, bake) and she did put the fire in Ilia. They are people alright, but whom. Sometimes I don't know what to believe. Well for the fires in Athens I do know, on purpose for the land in order to build houses of the rich (we call them villas)

but who are they? are they from some extrеmist organization or something else?

[alp_er]

they may be..

[gyzemus]

Firstly,I wanna say get well soon to every of us.I really feel sad. There are somethings that I believe.Firstly,The firing or fired places are very near countries as being geographic.I mean Greece,Bulgaria,Turkey..And more important parts of the countries.For example in my country,there are lots of forest places but the fired places are near the seasides.In Greece,that place is near the capital.This comes to me as if these places are specially choosen.

[gyzemus]

Why sealess or tourismless places or less efficiently places don't be fired.These fires may happen because of carelessness,but I can not believe.Are all of these are casualness?To be at the same time or similar times, to be very important places,to be near countries..etc.
I can not believe friends.There is just one thing that I believe is terror.I look for intentional behaviours.And cant find more words to say.And lastly,our luıngs and future is firing.Get well soon all of us again.

[alp_er]

yes the things u say are logical..the first thing that came to my mind was 'error'when i hear about the fire...

[-=fly`n`high=-]

I`ve heard in news that strong rains came to Greece. Is it stoped the fire or not?

the fire is stopped, but not from the rains. The rains you heard were on the north of Greece, the fires on the south

Mmmno I don't think so,just people who want to build in that pleace and they can't while the forest exist...

[gyzemus]

For example,I have lived in Bodrum where is one of the most beautiful holiday places in the world,until 3 years before.Last week I was there,and I wish I wouldnt see there as that situation.The places where I was playing games when I was a child are all burnt,there were just burnt trunks. Generally hotels and the tourists damaged there.No died people. But the situation is different in Greece.

[gyzemus]

Firing for building is the one of the most important reasons. I wanted to mean it into the terror. It is terror against the nature. But there is just one truth that I believe is nothing happened on its own. People are responsible. I wish we, as being human beings can become wiser. Regards

[gyzemus]

And we don't wanna new buildins any more. Because there are no more empty building lands. Oh damn capitalism!

[veronika_pooh]

That is the situation...becouse of the sick ambitions of few people hundreds r suffering...this is not the way but we r unable to stop it...

[gyzemus]

Yes.Unfortunately. The worst thing is we are unable to stop it as you say

Η Ελλάδα καίγεται / Greece is being burnt

Πρόσεξε όλα τα ψέματα / Notice all the lies
θα σου τα πουν όταν θα είσαι μοναχός / they’ll tell them to you when you’ll be alone
πρόσεξε όλα τα θαύματα / notice all the miracles
γιατί κρατάνε τρεις ημέρες δυστυχώς / cause they last for three days, unfortunately
ανάψαν, ανάψαν στους δρόμους οι φωτιές / they lighted, they lighted in the streets the fires
αλλάξαν, αλλάξαν τα λόγια κι οι ματιές / they changed, they changed the words and the glances
αυτός ο κόσμος ήταν κάποτε παράδεισος / this world once was paradise
έμοιαζε η ζωή σαν εκδρομή / life seemed like excursion
κι ήρθε η μέρα που μας χώρισε μια άβυσσος / and it came a day that an abyss divided us
μας τύλιξε καπνός σε μια στιγμή / smoke covered us in a moment

Μην ακούς τι λέγεται η Ελλάδα καίγεται / Don’t hear what it’s said, Greece is being burnt
και τα βράδια κλαίγεται μέσα απ' το γυαλί / and at nights she cries inside of the glass
μην ακούς τι λέγεται η Ελλάδα καίγεται / don’t hear what it’s said, Greece is being burnt
και αυτοί που θα την σώσουν είναι μόνο οι τρελοί / and them that they’ll save her are only the mad men

Πίστεψε όλα τα όνειρα / Believe in all the dreams
γιατί έχουν πάντα κάποια αλήθεια να σου πουν / cause they always have to tell you a truth
άνοιξε όλα τα σύνορα / open all the borders
ν
