Hier die neuesten Infos aus Chios, heute früh bei mir angekommen über Vesna Jones, einer Engländerin, die ständig mit den dortigen Tierschützerin in Verbindung steht:
I was putting off writing again about the mayor of Chios decision to give
out poison to whoever wanted it until I received some photos from Carly, but
I'm still waiting. I have spoken with her this morning and she was amazed
and grateful for such a terrific response to her appeal to write letters to
the mayor etc. I'm sure that like me, you receive numerous requests to
write letters of protest, sign petitions etc, but can we allow the idiotic
mayor of Chios to get away with his lunatic actions???? NO!!! We MUST
respond and in force!!!
Again and again, if necessary!!!
Some of you may have already seen Carly's email below, which confirms that
the poison WAS dished out to people. Whilst the local newspaper Alithia was
very supportive of Carly's society and condemned the mayor's actions, not
one TV channel in the end reported about this insane matter.
I ask you to please write to the mayor again, CONDEMNING his actions and
please copy your email to other addresses below. I was hoping to include
more, but I simply didn't have time to scour the internet. However, if you
have the time to look for & find other newspapers, TRAVEL COMPANIES etc,
please, please do so!!!
Below Carly's email is one which I have just written to the mayor etc.

Dear Friends,
I can't thank all of you enough for the time and effort you all made to try
and help me stop the Mayor of Chios and the local municipality from giving
free poison out today...
I am sorry to inform you all but at 10am this morning myself, Pepi Bouse
and TV stations, Alpha, Antenna and Alithia wachted in pure horror the
handing out of the poison to all Chios residents.. Dr Broulis took no notice
to our Protest.. I watched as hundreds of people lined up for their free
poison and there was nothing i could do to stop it. The poison was given out
to anybody, no checks were made and people were leaving with clear bags of
round blue blocks of poison... I'm absolutely disgusted and urge again
please to write your letters to The mayor of Chios your thoughts and again
to Alithia TV, as they are kindly airing our outrage at 8pm tonight on
Channels Antenna and Alpha.. I as the President of Chios Animal Welfare
Society www.chiosaws.org cant express how scared I am because I just know
that in the coming weeks only myself and our local volunteers will be
dealing with the hundreds of poisoned and dying animals here in Chios.
Carly
========================================
My latest email to the mayor:
Mr Broulis, you must be very proud of yourself!!! What a wonderful example
you are setting for the citizens of your island by giving out 'free poison'
as if it were candy!! You clearly don't care what the world at large thinks
about your insane, barbaric, deplorable, despicable (I could go on) actions.
You may not care, but you can be sure that countless of civilised people
do!! The citizens of Chios who queued up to collect their 'bag' of poison
are the very same people whose livelihood may depend on tourism.
I'm sure you are aware of the fact that hundreds, if not thousands of stray
AND owned dogs and cats, bird and other wildlife, will fall victim to the
indiscriminately scattered poisoned bait. Perhaps if a small child were to
accidentally ingest some of the poison, you would come to your senses ...
alas, too late!!
Your reputation is crossing borders far and wide!! You are not only
degrading yourself and your island, but your country as a whole. You are
ABUSING your position as a mayor and I sincerely hope that your superiors
(nomarchia?) will see fit to suspend you from your job and in due course,
dismiss you! Or perhaps you will be decent enough and resign!
I will not apologise for lack of respect I show you with this letter. You
deserve only contempt!

Carmen, was glaubst Du, was mit einem Menschen in Griechenland passiert, der einen "gewählten Volksvertreter" anzeigt, weil er eine jahrzehntealte Praxis, nämlich die Massenvergiftung von Tieren begünstigt? Und was schätzt Du, wo eine solche Anzeige landen wird? Oder hast Du schon mal gehört/gelesen/erlebt, dass Verstöße gegen das Tierschutzgesetz verfolgt werden? Du lebst schon so lange in Griechenland; ich kann Deine Frage daher nur als eine rein rhetorische betrachten. Solchen Machenschaften kommt man allerhöchstens von "außen" bei, wenn überhaupt.
