from reuters: The Greek government faced possible collapse on Tuesday as ruling party lawmakers demanded Prime Minister George Papandreou resign for throwing the nation's euro membership into jeopardy with a shock call for a referendum. Caught unawares by his high-risk gamble, the leaders of France and Germany summoned Papandreou to crisis talks in Cannes on Wednesday to push for a quick implementation of Greece's new bailout deal ahead of a summit of the G20 major world economies.related geopolitikal updates:

Rumors have it that Papandreou has replaced 4 highly decorated generals with NATO loyalist officers because of the growing danger of a military coup-d'état that is fomenting.
The high ranking staff members that were "replaced" are:
Air Chief Marshal - General Ioannis Giagkos
Chief of the Hellenic Army General Staff Lieutenant General Fragkos Fragkoulis
Chief of the Hellenic Air Force Lieutenant General Vasilios Klokozas
Chief of the Hellenic Navy General Staff Vice-Admiral Dimitrios Elefsiniotis
