However, they dress it, a debt of £30k for every Greek man woman and child is unsustainable and now, with the package, this could go close to 40k....... there has to be debt restructuring - and 'toute suite' for the markets.

The Greek god Zeus was flying over a Greek island and noticed a naked German woman of some sixty years old, an ancient Emma Watson look-alike ( http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02940/Potter-Hermione-Me_2940490c.jpg) washing herself, so he swooped down and made passionate Athenian love to her.

Then he said, "In 9 months you shall have a child and you shall call him Alexis Tsipras!"

And the woman replied, "In nine months, you shall have an uncontrollable rash and you shall call it Herpes à Lagarde."

piggynose, morality sometimes ranks only as highly as those with the power* dictate.

The monthly loans( Besatzungsanleihe ) should have been resolved before now and has no bearing on the present Greek situation.

It is convenient˚ to keep the can of worms that is history, unopened, and the worm of reparations shrouded in this type of ostensible argument >>
