Frau Doktor Merkel was right the other day when she indicated that the alternative to saving the euro and the eu was potential conflict. But as with most euro pols. she is months behind the curve. Change, conflict driven or otherwise is on its way and cannot be stopped. It will make no difference how much money is thrown down the gaping maw of the banking system. As Omar Khayyam put it in the eleventh century:
"The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it. "
And the words that the moving finger wrote...
" j' accuse! "

Absolutely right. Europe is being governed by a committee......a pretty poor one at that, because the only people who seem to be getting a say in things are France and Germany.
If I were Silvio Berlusconi I would be very worried......the Franco-German dagger is pointing in his direction. How long will it be before all the PM's in the EU countries are replaced by people who are sanctioned by Sarkozy And Merkel? Puppets who will dance to the tune played by these two?
I cannot understand why the French and German people want to keep on dipping their hands into their pockets to support a system which is so obviously flawed.....throwing money at the situation is never going to work.
Europe/ the EU/ the single currency should be disbanded.
And as for the cry 'it is too difficult to get out of the EU'.......why? Angela Merkel was talking about throwing Greece out of the EU and the single currency if they carried out their plans for a referendum.....so, so much for it being difficult.
What can
we do to get thrown out?
