Ah, the US government gave itself a get out of jail free card.
Shock and awe!

Can I arrest [ Republican Party here in the U.S.] and still pretend to give a fuck about free speech, like you Germans?
Why do you bother asking stupid questions you already know the answer to?
Are the US Republican party promulgating Nazi ideology in Germany?
Why do you pretend to give a fuck about free speach when the only thing you can use that freedom for is to be an idiot on the internet?
A lot of things should be hated and a lot of things should be loved. One of the purposes of free speech is to determine which is which. If "incitement to hatred" is the problem, would I be prosecuted for inciting hatred of the death camps?
Incitement to hatred of people.
Anyway, don't bother arguing with me about it. It's the citizens of Germany who decide what is and what is not allowed in Germany, not some random internet loser.
Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and adherents of other religions do not go on killing rampages.
What fucking planet are you living on?
Uh, censorship wasn't exactly the worst thing the Nazis did, and they don't get censored because of the bad things they did, but because their "speach" consists of incitement to hatred.
Oh, sorry, forgot this:
Talk to any intelligence officer?
I'd expect any intelligence officer to tell me what he was told to tell me, no more and no less. It may or may not have any connection to the truth.
Oh, I understand why people might not want a nuclear armed Iran.
I just don't think any informed person is basing that opinion on paranoid fantasies like yours,
I mean, seriously? A nuclear armed state giving its weapons to another country, let alone a non-state actor like Hezbollah. You must be joking.
And the idea that Bashar would use nukes inside his own country? It's just silly.
Ok, I must say I missed your criticism of the US. (Yes, it's there in the last paragraph, I have no excuse. sorry).
Which is why they shouldn't have a nuclear bomb. The fact is they control Syria
Nonsense.
and Lebanon
Even more nonsense.
A nuclear Hezbollah bombing Israel,
paranoid fantasy. You don't bomb countries that can bomb you back.
nuclear Syria bombing its civilians
If Bashar wanted to use WMD's on his own territory he'd be a lot more likely to use his huge stock of chemical weapons - less mess to clean up afterwards,
and Iran nuclear bombing Saudi citizens rather than trying to gun down their ambassador in DC could be a very frightening situation than anyone imagined.
Big on imagination aren't you.
What's your problem with this one?
Are you pretending that just last week Hezbollah didn't really admit to launching and piloting an Iranian drone over Israel proper?
US flies drones over Iran - no problem.
Iran flies drones over Israel - they are bad people.
Why?
hehe, ok, you're dumb. 86.5% is deeply in the hole.
So, what is 82%
What is 102%
What is 208%
Personally i've had a house loan of 220,000 EUR when I was making 44,000 EUR a year, i.e. my debt to "gdp" was around 500%. Was I "in a deep hole"?
You don't consider 86.5% to be deeply in the hole?
Compared to 208%?
Compared to 104%?
No, I don't.
Oh, by the way, what's the figure for Germany?
82%
I could under stand a tax on money after the 1st mil at 75%,
Good. Because that's exactly what it is.
(As with all tax matters it's almost universaly misreported. The proposal is simply a new high rate band of 75% for income over 1m EUR.)
M. Hollande is old school ENA (Ecole Nationale d'Administration) which turns out highly-educated senior French bureaucrats and politicians, who, whatever else they may be, are not daft.
Not Daft? They why is he pursuing austerity, a policy which has always led to economic depression and increased debt? It is nice he restrained to blow education, but then why blowing everything else?
Uh, because of the fucking Germans.
I really hope it hasn't - at £5000/year full time, it's tuition fees are considerably lower than the £9000/yr everyone else seems to be charging for an undergraduate degree. When you take into account the student loans that everyone here takes out to pay them, lower tuition fees seem like a good way to reduce our reliance on credit.
And please never forget that the people who voted for those fees didn't pay them themselves, instead they were paid to go to university.
(AFAIR I used to get about GBP 1000 a year, not a lot even then, but I left university with a a debt of only GBP 200. <yorkshireman>Try telling that to the kids of today</yorkshireman>).
