So it was the 7th day of the 7th Month in 1916, during world war I. And as you know 1+9+1+6 = 14 a multiple of 7. This is when Otto Von Bismark knew we had a win-win. We would have a one Europe regardless of who won the war.

According to Cabala we will just wait for Greece to spin into Chaos and become willing to do anything, accept any term. Then we force them to wait for an auspicious day to seal the new pact with Greece. So basically we can wait till they all become prostitutes like in old London. When they are selling either their daughters or sons into prostitution, we can move in and ship out all the Criminals.

Just... Like... London... Did. Snort, Snort.

well put.

 

if you select from the billions of people alive today, extract the worst 0.0000001% scum-bag-no-good-selfish-cronny-despicable types available, you would absolutely come up with the 100 or so fellas who are in charge of this charade to save their bank owners and destroy the billions who are not in.

 

they deserve to live under a bridge and beg for food and shelter - like the multiple million poor fellas that experience such a horrible, hopeless outcome already due to these people's despicable, criminal behavior.  as they continue to pursue their bankster wishes and self-interests, millions more will be affected and their lives destroyed.

 

not one voice of reason or justice to stop their criminal behavior.  at least not in "high" places.

 

a real human being would tell it as it is, do the right thing for the long-term betterment of the population and accept the consequences of their actions.  first thing is to close the banks who are iliquid - period.  deutsche bank included.  nationalize it yesterday and put it in receivership.

Merkel - ""So I asked Lagarde, why are we printing and giving to an insolvent Ukraine and not to Greece? Isn't that sending the wrong signal to Italy and Spain? That if you "play ball" we will keep funding everyones insolvency infinitely?" ....

See? It was all made up. Greece will stay and continue to get bailouts, eur/usd will continue to swing up and down against traders and in favor of CB`s and like I said before if it ever come to an end it will be almost surely when all of us expect it least. I will still remind you next week when nothing change but hey, if I am wrong feel free to eat me alive!

Italy says: Yeah I use it all day long. I feel happy. I have no Stress. Feels good right? Now when we use it on the Greeks, we turn up the power and pleasure turns into pain.

Italy Adds: Boiling Frogs? No we are long past that. It is time to really turn the screws on them. Frog Legs with Electrodes Kick exactly when you apply the Volts & Amps. We're going to make little Marionettes out of the Greeks. They will dance to our bullets all day long, thank us, then clean our feet and anoint them with their finest oils.
