Going full retard nationalist after frustration and bankruptcy caused by going full retard socialist. But don't worry Greece, it happened to the best of Europe before (Italy, Germany, etc)

Europe has been continually at war for centuries. Those people who predicted peace did so because of a brief half century or so of relative calm. What makes you believe that now is any different than then?

Yugoslavia isn't even a 20 year old conflict and the Greeks have been fighting against communism/fascism for decades. Europe is constantly at war. Maybe those who believe it isn't are just watching American Idol and Nascar too much?

Baldrick, Baldrick, Baldrick, we retards need a cunning plan !


I concur with all you say but do you seriously expect someone who used the word "retard socialist" to even have a modicum of interest in what we European retards have to say on the subject ?

Starting wars in other countries apparently is not retarded at all... As long as you keep your own backyard free of destruction then it really does not matter who does get hurt.

A bit like the Financial Industry which was not all responsible for the recession and economic downturn.... The Capitalist system has proved, so , so successful has it not ? Where did it start, remind me again Baldrick, was it something with sub prime mortgages and American Banks ? Oh yes I think it was. Foolish me, I thought it was all of us European Retards who were responsible....

And we know the American Economy is doing so well too, and apparently Americans are not Nationalist at all... especially those on the right of the political spectrum. Never heard an American coming all misty eyed and "patriotic", waving flags and being insulting about other Nations have you ?!?!

Interesting post from someone whose country is currently engaged in two wars and on a forum which has a sub-forum devoted to illegal immigration.

The muddy water is a little clearer now...

Have a read of this, yes, i know it's from 1946 and not 1900 but this seems to sum up what Europeans wanted for Europe:

Just pointing out a fact that Europe is no stranger to extreme swings of socialism and nationalism and will be for the forseeable future, regardless of how much the Euro-lovers deny it.

...and haven't you heard? Afghanistan is the noble war our great leader is fighting according to the former anti-Bush libs.

Jaggy is right. Americans have no room to talk here.

And Europe doesn't give one Flick what Americans think of it.

We got enough problems in our own country, if not even more.
