I doubt the greek people will accept that greek troops leave the barracks, and stand against the people.. Not anymore.. The greek population is as angry as they could be, without going attaching the system itself.. And I doubt even the greek army is able to quell what might be the result, if the government doesn't listen to the population now...

Even if HRC will try to push for some "surprising" in greek, I doubt the greek generals would do it, they got a bloody nose in 1975, and have after that been the tool of the state, not the other way... The time of military coups in Europe is over, and wil hopefully never came back anytime soon..
