hang on let me put on my gas mask...where were we....oh yes today the bullshit stench is quite is unbearable...

she never charged greek workers 20% interest...she charged an incompetent country run by incompetent people that rather than trim excess government dead weight chose to borrow to sustain...an incompetent country run by incompetent people that made it into a crime paying and collecting taxes....an incompetent country run by incompetent people that systematically ganged raped the once proud country of greece and turn it into something far below a banana republic status...but what is far worse and extremely hard to fathom, for this incompetent country run by incompetent people, is the incompetent population kept voting for these incompetent politicians...how incompetent and incomprehensible is this?...

if you were to actually stop and think about the staggering ammount they squandered, you would think hang on there are only 10 miilion or so citizens...where did all the money go?...but hey in typical greek fashion lets blame someone else...the greeks have became whiners...gone are the proud days...the olympic days...you lot would have the ancient greeks spinning in their graves...there are no greeks today, what we see today is a selfish pack of greedy wolves that made begging an olympic sport...greeks died long ago along with the mayas...

ofcource not every one in greece belongs in that category, but judging by the ammount of entreched corruption i would say a good chunk...

yes madam mad cow blame everyone but the greeks...

This style of argument is know as "moral relativism" where you attempt hide your mistakes by pointing out the mistakes of others, e.g. pointing out the defecit of other nations or the tax affairs of other people. Turks always use this technique to rebuff arguments on the Cyprus problem by making comparisons to what other people did to them in the past.

The problem with arguments based on moral relativism is that they don't actually solve or address the underlying issue.


But I thought you believed everyone is the same? Why not the Greeks? Or is it you who plays moral relativism? Whoever hates the Greeks (and therefore, Greek Cypriots) must be good and moral!

Meanwhile, the woman you adore for been purer than pure because she hates Greeks ....

CHRISTINE Lagarde, the French politician entrusted with restoring the reputation of the International Monetary Fund after the resignation of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, is to face a criminal inquiry over corruption claims.

The decision by a French court to investigate Ms Lagarde, 55, for allegedly aiding and abetting embezzlement and fraud - offences that carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison - represents a fresh embarrassment to the IMF just a month after it appointed her as managing director.

She is accused of wrongdoing over her role in a €403 million ($543m) payment to businessman Bernard Tapie when she was the French finance minister.

Keiser: Christine Lagarde is a debt whore. She sees the world in terms of how much debt she can create. The IMF is there to create debt. The problem is debt…0 She will do anything for debt.

Press TV: Why do you think the situation has reached this point? Would you say the American lawmakers have taken the budget issue hostage?

Keiser: Barack Obama has defaulted on the US Constitution. The solution is to round up the corrupt bankers who are pushing more debt and to throw them in jail. The former IMF Chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn was a financial rapist and he has been replaced with a debt whore. This is not going to solve any problems in terms of the austerity measures that are being forced on people like the people in Greece unfairly, because they did not incur the debt, the debt whores incurred the debt. That is why they are revolting.
