Dimitrios Kammenos
Dimitris Kammenos ( el, Δημήτρης Καμμένος) is a Greek politician who served for less than one day as Deputy Minister of Infrastructure, Transport and Networks in the Second Tsipras Cabinet. Controversy In June 2015, Kammenos posted a doctored image on Facebook of the gate to Auschwitz concentration camp, replacing the words "Work Sets You Free" (german: Arbeit Macht Frei) with "We Stay in Europe", mocking pro-EU demonstrators. Kammenos later apologised, saying: "The comparison may have been unfortunate but there is an economic holocaust under way in my country." He was criticised for his statements by the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece and others. In the past, Kammenos has also insinuated that Jewish people were responsible for the September 11 attacks, falsely claiming, "and let's not forget that among the 2,500 Jews working at the Twin Towers not one went to work that day."

Member Of Parliament
A member of parliament (MP) is the representative in parliament of the people who live in their electoral district. In many countries with bicameral parliaments, this term refers only to members of the lower house since upper house members often have a different title. The terms congressman/congresswoman or deputy are equivalent terms used in other jurisdictions. The term parliamentarian is also sometimes used for members of parliament, but this may also be used to refer to unelected government officials with specific roles in a parliament and other expert advisers on parliamentary procedure such as the Senate Parliamentarian in the United States. The term is also used to the characteristic of performing the duties of a member of a legislature, for example: "The two party leaders often disagreed on issues, but both were excellent parliamentarians and cooperated to get many good things done." Members of parliament typically form parliamentary groups, sometimes called cauc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Kammenos had been expelled from the New Democracy parliamentary group after voting against Lucas Papademos' coalition government in a vote of confidence. The party's founding declaration was issued on 11 March 2012. Ten former ND deputies were founding members of the party, namely Elena Kountoura, Christos Zois, , , Spyros Galinos, , Maria Kollia-Tsaroucha, Panagiotis Melas and On 17 April 201 ...

Force Of Hellenism
In physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an Physical object, object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity (e.g. moving from a Newton's first law, state of rest), i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both Euclidean vector#Length, magnitude and Direction (geometry, geography), direction, making it a Vector (geometric), vector quantity. It is measured in the SI unit of newton (unit), newton (N). Force is represented by the symbol (formerly ). The original form of Newton's second law states that the net force acting upon an object is equal to the time derivative, rate at which its momentum changes with time. If the mass of the object is constant, this law implies that the acceleration of an object is directly Proportionality (mathematics), proportional to the net force acting on the object, is in the direction of the net force, and is inversely proportional to the mass of t ...
