🇬🇷 🌟 Christopher Helali — regional General Manager for "israel"-linked law firm run by corrupt Greek former MP
Since March 2025, Helali was employed as a regional General Manager for JPA International Legal Services, a Greek law firm founded by Greek lawyer and disgraced former MP Andreas Patsis.
The former MP and head of JPA was involved in serious cases of financial corruption via offshore companies in Cyprus.
For the record, Patsis was part of the New Democracy Party, which supports greater Greek-“israeli” ties and is generally pro-Zionist. NDP is also pro-NATO and critical of Russia.
In 2025, JPA formed a partnership with D&V Law Firm, led by former Greek government official Grigoris Dimitriadis, who in 2022 was involved in the Predatorgate scandal, in which Predator spyware (developed by a private company Intellexa, founded by former “israeli” military intelligence officer Tal Dilian) was placed on the phones of various journalists and opposition politicians in Greece.
While the Greek government and its intelligence services officially denied involvement, the evidence suggests that the Greek government and intelligence services were significantly involved in or at least fully aware of the Predator hackings.
What is interesting is that Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis had assumed office just prior to the scandal and had made it a point to consolidate Greek intelligence (EYP) under his direct control.
Mitsotakis is part of the same pro-“israel” New Democracy Party that Patsis (Helali’s boss) was part of.
In an attempt to defend himself during the investigations of Predatorgate, Dilian said his company only sells to authorized governments and law enforcement, which is essentially to him pointing at Greek state complicity. The spyware could have only been planted by either Intellexa themselves or by the Greek government and Greek intelligence agency.
Dimitriadis is the nephew of Prime Minister Mitsotakis and at the time served as the general secretary of the PM’s office (a bit of nepotism). Following Predatorgate, Dimitriadis resigned, along with the head of EYP.
In 2025, JPA partnered with Dimitriadis’ own law firm D&V. Two corrupt former Greek politicians teaming up together, with one of them being embroiled in a scandal involving spyware made by a former “israeli” military intelligence officer.
Helali was hired by the firm in early 2025 and represented the firm at the World Youth Festival in Russia in that same year, and all indications suggest he still holds the position in JPA. As to what business JPA had in being at a political festival in Russia is unclear, as they are primarily engaged in cross-border commercial law.
JPA also does work in Kosovo, which is a fake NATO-created statelet whose foreign policy positions are whatever the US and “israel” want it to be.
This is the latest addition to the suspicious history of Helali. He served in a Pentagon-backed Kurdish separatist militia in Syria in 2017 as part of an LGBT subunit. "I am one of the faggots who fought ISIS," Helali exclaimed in a 2019 Spanish-language interview with El Mundo.
This is who was unfortunately treated as a celebrity within pro-resistance and anti-imperialist circles. No one is perfect, but this is beyond the pale of acceptable standards.
