LOLGreece - Part 1268

[Velasco]

Switzerland to Greece: "We invite you to take steps so we can voluntarily send you billions of tax money."

Greece to Germany and the other €-countries: "If you do not send us more money to throw out of the window, we are going to send you AIDS, Ebola, asylum seekers and ISIS-fighters !"

Don't worry, Branson. Within the next 50 days of grace, the Greek government will be declared guilty of AIDS, Ebola and the humanitarian catastrophe of Lampedusa. Please, calm down.

Dear ingemann, you don't get it.

What about we all make a deal until the Greek government have shown itself able to something other than making EU's PMs, presidents and foreign ministers look very very tired. Tender and everyone else who think the Greek government are a bunch of idiots can keep mock them, while everyone who think the solution is just around the corner, can wait until Greece have actualy done something, which they wasn't forced to do (under great whining), and then you can attack Tender and company.

On the one hand, I have little to say if you, Branson and others think that the Greek government is a bunch of idiots that deserves being ridiculed. That's not the issue, my friend. If you care to read some previous posts, you'll find that the news in which Branson bases his somewhat hysterical attempt of mocking the Greeks is mere propaganda. If there's an 'offence' here, it's not the dubious sense of humour. On the other hand, you seem to believe that all of us on the 'other side' are ingenuously optimistic about the possibility of a solution "around the corner". As far as I'm concerned, nothing could be more untrue. However, I think that it's mainly the EU establishment who creates obstacles by persisting in the error. I'm very very tired of the bunch of clowns that runs the EU institutions, believe me.

Yes, I am a big fan of  Axel Springer too. There are no words in the dictionary to express the loads of respect and admiration that prestigious conservative headlines like Die Welt and sister newspapers such as Daily Telegraph (UK) and ABC (Spain) inspire me, as well as their recognised impartiality and total absence of bias. Particularly, I adore their coverage of Greek issues for some reason

That 'issue' raises some questions, just like the stupid controversy around what the hell Finance minister Yanis Varoufakis did (or not) with his finger (I can't help but roaming with night terrors thinking about it). Do you give credit to Swiss authorities when it comes to banking transparency? Do you believe that a government of whatever ideological leaning is so stupid to reject such an offer? Look, they are willing to send Greece voluntarily loads of money. Greece needs desperately whatever sum of money, because Greek people is in a state of humanitarian emergency (I'm quoting Jean-Claude Juncker). I'm sorry, but the first impression that I got is that the news sounds like an insult to the intelligence. In other words, internal consumption propaganda to feed the anti-Greece feeling among good German speaking conservatives.
