    I say, Louis, that pic reminds of Peter Crouch' legendary quote:

    The leaked US cables provide us with an insightful peek behind the scenes of this dreadful family.


    The French are corrupt, Americans are stupid, corruption is fine, and those journalists should mind their own business.

    What a terrible man. Apparantly, of limited intellectual capacity to boot.

    i believe if the foreign country you are doing business with has a culture of 'gifts' and it represents a multi-billion dollar deal that helps support what is considered to be a strategic industry, then we shouldn't ask too many questions.

    do i care that a bunch of saudi princes got millions in kick-backs after an endless round of parties involving coke and hookers? no, i care that we got to sell them hundreds of tornado fighter/bombers and a bunch of warships, along with support contracts that span decades!

    would i start making an embarrassing fuss just before we agree to sell them over a hundred eurofighters, an act that may keep defence-aerospace alive in this country long enough to market UCAV's such as Taranis? hell no!

    But the big question is, will this be enough to create healthy offspring, or will the centuries of inbreeding be too much to erase in just one generation? Only time will tell....

    Discuss.

    EDIT: Oh, and a linky for those who don't know or care what I'm talking about(cudos to you!).
    LOL Horetore you are such a hypocrite at times, suddenly inbreeding matters after all? Just as forward thinking when it comes to French shave mind you.

    Why Moroccan, but not Algerian or Tunisian?

    Why Turkish, but not Kurdish?

    Playing Devil's Advocate, as Horetore has already touched on, this is not Racism as it is based on National boundaries, and not just those of a specific racial heritage.

    But still, seeking therapy as to the root cause of this hatred might be more profitable than lashing out in this manner.

    This was an unpromising thread to begin with, that has now veered into even rougher terrain.
