The question of "Why," asked perhaps by a Frenchman, "should I help THEM (the Greeks)?" requires that we understand the emotional valence attached to sovereign state as a giver of identity. The nation, even when it is an historical accident (as in Iraq), seems incredibly compelling to citizens and I've never seen an adequate treatment of why that would be so.
