Such intelligence and perspicuity! No wonder -- nah. It's pointless. They are what they are.You're absolutely right Oakdale.Never Europe went for such a low level.Football as turned to the modern days equivalent to medieval jousting tournaments that acts as the simulacrum of wars.We can't afford wars anymore, so we have football...

But I'm sure that many people don't share this point of view. Besides, the French team is IMO a serious candidate for the trophy.

Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #611 – 2016-07-06, 22:27:52 Et voilá, Portugal at the final, as expected. Not too much effort to send Wales home.Tomorrow will be a relaxing day watching the Teutons against the Gaulois for determining the next and final victim.
Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #612 – 2016-07-09, 10:41:04 José Manuel Barroso to work for Goldman SachsThe 'magic' revolving door:Mario Draghi: Goldman Sachs => European Central Bank - President, José Manuel Barroso: Goldman Sachs <= European Commission chiefSpeaking of Goldman Sachs:Did big U.S. banks contribute to the financial crisis in Greece?The question is rhetorical. Of course they did. Greece is the lever used for weakening the Euro and Goldman Sachs one of the main players.The goal:Hedge Funds Try 'Career Trade' Against Euro"This is an opportunity...to make a lot of money," says Hans Hufschmid, a former senior Salomon Brothers executive who now runs GlobeOp Financial Services SA, a hedge-fund administrator in London and New York.Conclusion:The past and present of people like Mario Monti or Mario Draghi is no secret.Arousing question - how is it possible that such people got hoisted into important functions within the EU???To me the EU looks more and more like an ox led through a bearing race. In the future it might share the fate of such an ox ...
Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #613 – 2016-07-09, 16:34:23 Probably most of us remember the hysteria about alleged Russian subs in Sweden's territorial waters.It took some time till the truth managed to surface.It was a German sub. (source, source)However still no mention in the main German propaganda outlets about this (staged) incident.The desinformation campaigns of the cold war have been successfully reactivated.Déjà vu - during the 80thies, the Pentagon (in agreement with Sweden's military) has sent Italian subs in Swedish territorial waters in order to point the fingers at the Soviets and to create panic and willingness among the Swede for a NATO membership.
Re: What's Going on in Europe Reply #614 – 2016-07-09, 17:24:38 Here's a case of a real Russian submarine caught/stranded in Swedish waters, on film https://dndsanctuary.eu/index.php?topic=481.msg28714#msg28714 Finns have had more issues with Russian subs than Swedes, but they complain less. They are more cautious with their immediate neighbour.

China?Probably the one that wins...Since childhood I have only had one national team as a favourite, the only national team in my opinion it is worth supporting, and it has done pretty well lately. For Euro 2016 it had had these wins, draws and losses: Turkey, Latvia, Netherlands, Czechia, Kazakhstan, Czechia, Netherlands, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Turkey, Portugal, Hungary, Austria, England, France. It also won over the tournament winner, a consolation for not advancing to the semi-final. Portugal almost achieved a perfect stealth win, that is not winning a single game in regular time, but still winning the tournament, had it not been for that win over Wales. Here's the updated chart: Team: won against : lost against (in regular time)Poland: Ukraine, Northern Ireland : nobodyWales: Slovakia, Russia, Belgium : England, Portugal Belgium: Ireland, Sweden, Hungary : Italy, WalesGermany: Ukraine, Northern Ireland, Slovakia : FranceItaly: Belgium, Sweden, Spain : Ireland France: Romania, Albania, Ireland, Iceland, Germany : nobodyIceland: Austria, England : FrancePortugal: Wales : nobody
