I'll always remember how fear shook the wealthy

Some of the commentary on the Syriza election victory in Greece reminds me of that line from Leon Rosselson's Song of the Old Communist:


Give it a play and see what you think.

Oh yeah, it's not just the wealthy who might be feeling a tad anxious.  According to the Jerusalem Post Zionists aren't exactly thrilled either.
