Explosives send all over the world, from Greece with love. What to do, this country is rapidly becomming a failed state. Is leftist terrorism back, quite a feat I must say that can't have been easy. Germany almost lost Merkel they could intercept the explosives in time. But very ambitious an attack.
I'll bet that even if all the explosives killed someone, the total death toll would be less than that from food poisoning from german pork products.
Sending explosives to the head of state of the most powerful European nation is rather reckless, and why Chile and Panama, unless chaos is what they want. I don't think we saw the last of this. Maybe we should quarantine Greece for a while until they sort this out.Quote:

That so many got through after the first was found is kinda unnerving given the high-profile of the targets. Must have been send from different locations meaning there are a lot of people involved, RAF couldn't have pulled this off way too small for that.Quote:

Maybe it's the greek radical left saying "thank you" for our money and because their government now has to save money since we aren't willing to pay for all their expenses now. But then I already knew they were nuts when they demonstrated demanding that Greece keeps spending more money than it has.
I'm kinda unknowing about the german pork problem, wasn't it Britain that spread the mad cow flu?
I believe there talking about Dioxin in German pork but the whole thing was waaaayyyy overblown you would have to eat a couple of ton of it to be harmed and obviously eating a ton pork is way worse.Quote:

oh wait.
The moral standard of western civilization:
- brown people sends bomb. Cavity searches made obligatory at airports.
- white people sends bomb. Frags makes pun.
EDIT: And djeez, Husar, try to be more of an urban stereotype, will you? Mad cow flu? And in pork? F'shame! :shame:
Btw, what you can get from eating pork are various types of worms(and the diseases they can cause), but they are killed when the meat is cooked.
We can send them some of our pork, I'm sure that will solve the problem.Quote:

By comparison the current measures pale into insignificance.Quote:

Also the Dutch and Russian ones, a bomb-letter for Berluscone was intercepted. They sure know how to make friends. Greece closes postal service which nobody will notice because it's Greece, but a proper response. It baffles me how this was kept under the radar.
edit: ah another speciman hi TS, they scream that I scream, fascinating
1. Germany sends money to Greece
2. Greece sends bomb to Germany as a thank-you gift.
This isn't very logical...
As it seems explosives should be replaced with firecrackers and that this was more of a bored rich kids stunt that got too big for it's own good. Good show if it is.
Frags, didn't you define "leftism" as meaning "state-control"?
The gorups sending these bombs(well, the ones we suspect are doing it) wishes to abolish the state altogether....
Anarchism doesn't equal "leftie" in any way.
@Louis: the way we react to things now and during the 60's are completely different. Why do you feel the need to compare two different times when we have two perfectly good examples in the present? Why compare domestic terrorism during the 60's to muslim terrorism in the present, when you can compare muslim terrorism in the present to domestic terrorism in the present...?

Yes, because the papers always ges their facts and definitions straight.Quote:

AFAIK, frags defines "the left" as wanting state control. Thus, a "radical leftist group" would logically support much state control; but does an anarchist want state control?
Anarchists who go nuts because they want to retire at 55... not quite it. We have these clowns here as well, call themselves anarchists but their ideas are ultra-totalitarian. Marxism is a revolutionary ideoligy, not anarchist since government is just replaced.
im not leftist at all XD and idc what u say about them. im just making fun of everything. its specimen btwQuote:

Seems like it is too profitableQuote:

Well, that same kind of anarchists exists in Greece too, and they are of course rioting same as everyone else.Quote:
