bulletin was suddenly interrupted by advertisements.
    ‘What, now we’ve got to have adverts during the news too?’ said Adriani puzzled. ‘They should be ashamed!’
    My first reaction was to get up and walk away. To wait for the adverts to finish just to hear news reports that I already knew was just a bit too much. But then I thought whether I had anything better to do. I didn’t so I sat down again. Extraordinarily, my patience was rewarded because the advertisements were interrupted suddenly and the woman newscaster reappeared on the screen. She was holding a sheet of paper and staring perplexedly into the camera.
    ‘Ladies and Gentlemen, just a few minutes ago, our channel received an anonymous phone call. A caller announced that he was phoning on behalf of the Philip of Macedon National Greek Front and stated that they claimed responsibility for the suicide of the businessman, Jason Favieros. The unknown caller said, and I quote, “Favieros did not commit suicide, it was we who forced his hand. The reasons we required his suicide are written on an announcement that we have left in a waste bin in the entrance to the channel’s offices.”’
    The newscaster paused for a moment and stared into the camera. ‘In fact, Ladies and Gentlemen, the information given us by the unknown caller proved to be true. The announcement was found in the waste bin outside the entrance to our offices. This is it.’ She raised her hand and a sheet of A4 paper appeared on the screen with a logo showing the familiar helmeted head of the father of Alexander the Great with the following large black letters underneath:
    PHILIP OF MACEDON
NATIONAL GREEK FRONT
     
    There followed a sparsely written text. Even I could see that the logo and text had been prepared and printed using a computer.
    The newscaster began to read the announcement, while at the same time the text appeared, covering half the screen, a method that divides the viewers into two categories: the deaf and the illiterate.
    We wish to announce to the Greek people that yesterday we obliged the businessman, Jason Favieros, to commit suicide. The Philip of Macedon National Greek Front condemned Favieros to death because in his projects in Greece he employed exclusively foreign workers: Albanians, Bulgarians, Serbians, Romanians together with numerous Africans and Asians. Through these activities of his, the Communist, Internationalist, Jason Favieros, systematically hacked away at the very foundations of the Nation. Firstly, because by employing foreign workers from the Balkans, from Asia and from Africa, he contributed to the rising unemployment in Greece and consequently to the weakening of the national fabric to the benefit of foreigners. Secondly, because in this way he promoted the immigration of foreigners to Greece and the gradual undermining of the Nation by foreign races, who systematically marginalise Greeks and who, in less than a decade, will have succeeded in rendering them a minority in their own homeland. Thirdly, because by employing foreigners at degrading wages, he secured huge profits, without giving even a penny of it to the unemployed Greeks and their families.
We gave Favieros the choice to voluntarily do away with himself, otherwise one by one we would execute all the members of his family.
We call upon all those who employ foreign workers in Greece to dismiss them within a week and replace them with Greeks. Otherwise, they will suffer the same fate as Favieros and either will be obliged to do away with themselves or be executed.
We call upon the authorities to deport all foreigners from Greece within a month. Otherwise, we will kill so many foreigners each day that they will be forced to leave on their own.
Time to put a stop to the pillaging of our homeland by foreign nations!
Time to put a stop to the rising unemployment in Greece so that our enemies can eat and prosper!
Greece belongs to the Greeks and Greeks want it pure and exclusively their own.
