an interesting follow up question is to ask why on the last month the German government seems intent on dumping gasoline on the fire...it seems every time Merkel or any other German government figure says something it's always the last thing that should be said at that moment.
The reason Merkel is to use your own words "dumping gasoline on the fire" is she has probably copped too late that the nuclear scenario is now inevitable. We know from leaks in our own Department of Finance that "The ECB us" is the refrain repeated by the civil servants inside it, the ECB had hoped to ease Ireland into the bailout with out spooking investors in Spanish and Portuguese debt. It failed because she was saying the right thing for the long term health of the Euro but not the right thing for a short term view from Brussels with regard to Ireland or more corrrectly our Banks.

If we examine some of the statements from Euro finance ministers lately we can see a picture of a Europe that has copped that we have a spoofer in charge of monetary policy in the Euro Area. How do I know he is a spoofer pretty simple the ECB stressed tested out banks only a short while back and gave them a thumbs up, that has top be the biggest laugh ever I expect Germany will demand a head from the ECB soon.
