Kikapu, you just made my day

[cyprusgrump]

The sad thing is that every thing Madame Lagarde said is totally correct. By the way, its "Ου με πείσεις, καν με πείσεις"

The sad thing is that this repulsive creature was only fit to replace the previous scandal-ridden Frenchman, who didn't know how to keep his hands off hotel maids, because of the unlikelihood she could possess any such emotions.

Otherwise, she should hang her head in shame to feign pity at Africans knowing France was responsible for raping Africa, carrying out the most number of shipments of slaves amounting to millions of unfortunate souls, and being one of the last countries to abolish slavery.

This is what she should pity - her unfortunate heritage! And try harder not to do to Europe what her countrymen did to these Africans she now pretends to be concerned about.

So she should hang her head in shame for something that happened two hundred years before she was even born???

But, it's true.

Oh sorry. Slavery is a touchy subject with Brits too.

France's colonialism is still affecting the starving children of Africa!

The "Ottoman invasion" of Greece is the main cause for the country’s current financial crisis, Luxembourger Prime Minister and Euro Group President Jean-Claude Juncker has said, noting the negative impact the occupation had on Greece’s fiscal development, according to daily Hürriyet.

"Greece is a very big nation but a very weak state," Juncker said during an interview with Politique Internationale. "It's the truth: Their fiscal management is not working. There is no staff, no real trade history, which is the heritage of the Ottoman invasion."

Juncker also told Politique Internationale that Spain and Portugal had better chances of recovering than Greece, which may take years to get back on its feet.

"How can you privatize anything when such important factors are missing?" Juncker said.

Greek independence internationally recognised since 1832. What have the Greeks been doing for the last 180 years?

Not paying taxes!

That's rich coming from a Swiss Tax exile, Kiks.

What an interesting map. It makes me wonder what private hole some forum members are sitting in when they constantly refer to Turkish expansionism. Trying to hide something with bluster maybe.

Obviously you can not distinguish between liberation of MY lands and expansionism to other people's lands.

there might be a greek word for taxes but paying taxes is never used in the same context...

Giving billions of Dollars of aid to Africa is affecting the starving children of Africa....

Is that why they are starving? Cause they are getting billions from the IMF? Or is it that they are deprived of the billions now that Greece is in trouble? What was happening the previous decades?

And what about the billions given for decades to support Turkey most of which were used for the acquisition of arms?

[cyprusgrump]

As you say, we've (The West) been giving billions to Africa for decades yet the place is still a corrupt basket case.

Giving money so that Africans can sit under trees or by new machetes, Mercedes and AK47s has been tried and has failed...
