Well, two big topics today:
Mrs Angela Merkel, the German prime minister tells the pope off, as he has just "rehabilitated" a bishop that keeps on denying the existance of the holocaust.
Vatican reacts: "the pope has clearly rejected any denial of the holocaust".
There we are again: Mrs Merkel, you have not yet understood: a democratically elected head of government (even having been against my vote) can not tell someone undemocratically elected what to do or not to do, and even less, what to say. Got it now?
I have been asking myself lately why islamic fundamentalists don't bombard the vatican? This would be a quick way of getting rid of the head of Christian Medusa.
Fundamentalist catholics are as intolerant (or even more) as muslim ones and are as counter-productive for the "dialogue between civilizations"!
... but God exists! Last weekend a German unemployed (who due to banks' greed has lost his job) won 17.5 MILLION €uro ... poor banks ... they should rather have played the lottery than speculating on mortgages and real estate.
This brings up the fundamentalist issue again: why do our muslim fundamentalist friends no bomb western banks? ... because they are playing on behalf of their case! ... destroying western civilization.
Good night
... is what I would have said usually, but ...
there has been a stand-still in the biggest city of Europe since yesterday (Monday, February nd, 2009) caused by 10cm of snow! (... why do muslim fundamentalists not invent a biiiig snow machine?)
I have just seen on the news that in Germany we don't even need the snow! ... we've got enough with the unhappy people in our country to get the country there. This is the perfect solution: if you want to stop time from passing, just leave your civil servants with no increase of salary for a couple of years, agree to greedy managers and banks constantly increasing their revenues and tell the civil servants that there is no money available (while managers and banks stuff their pockets with millions which they then take abroad, to some fiscal paradise, and get fined with literally "nothing" - see Zumwinkel) ... this way you don't need "natural catastrophes", like 10cm of snow in one night in the north of Europe, or the Vatican or even arab fundamentalists spreading bombs all over the place.
I think I may have found another grain of sand to contribute to understanding the world wide financial crisis!
Could the World Bank not simply SHUT DOWN ALL FISCAL PARADISES, NOW?! ... what a load of money could be got hold of! ... money noone knew that still was there. Come on IWF, you can take it ... most of it has no owner anyway!
