Title: Greece looking for 150 billion in compensation/reparations
Post by: Irongrip400 on May 13, 2013, 03:56:19 AM
From a nazi occupation in 1943. Germany says the debt was paid in 1960, Greece is broke and now wants money, and sees the austerity measures as an economic occupation. Is the breakdown of the EU inevitable? Is the nationalist machine once again rolling? What say you European getbiggers?

Greece is one big welfare state.   Naturally they are trying to sponge their way out of trouble.

Soon, in 22th of May we gonna have a memory festival here in Crete, of the Battle Of Crete where during the WW2, the German airborns fought to conquer our island.

After their victory aginst the Greeks, the Australians, the New Zealands, the South Africans, the Englands and the Americans, they do several things to our people.

They burn down my village, they burn olive trees (the local economy moderator), they feed their soldiers with cows and chickens and goats...

They killed several civilians in many villages around Crete.

You think the destroy of the local economy, the demolish of those villages, of roads, of our local domestic structures should not be paid off, as the Germans paid other European countries?!

But the lives of hounderns of Greeks, they can't paid off...

greece is historicaly right with this.

should ease theyr debt a bit.

the eu is changing, nations like greece were temporarily allowed to get a raise all on credit, theyre now just returning to where they been before.

greek ppl dont hate germans, they dislike their government.

its clear for everyone that its not the german ppl who benefit from this euro.

its clear for everyone that its not the german ppl who benefit from this euro.

Here's a list of benefits apparently accrued to Germany as a result of being in the Eurozone (and, in particular, being the anchor economy of the Eurozone, i.e., the economy with the most impact on other economies in the union as well as decision making power). Now, the benefits seem to go to the German government and to German businesses, which doesn't necessarily translate to benefits for the average German. Still, it's likely that Germans as a whole are better off than if they had either stayed with the DM or returned to it.

Yes, I've been looking and the prices are dirt cheap. Not sure how hard it would be for a foreigner to buy there though, and I'm also not sure of the crime and whether or not you'd end up getting the boot after a revolution.

The crime levels are pretty low at places like Crete. Things go bad in Athens and in particular places of our capital such as the center or the west blocks of it.

Byzantine rule, plagues, and Slavic incursions seem to have wiped-out the Spartiate bloodlines.  Sparta was destroyed/abandoned, and Mystras built several miles beside the ruins.  The Peloponnese was nearly de-populated several times in its history.

I might add that the Peloponnese was repopulated with Slavs almost every time its population crashed. 

Modern inhabitants of the Peloponnese are a Slav/Turkic hybrid.  The Spartans are lost... you won't find their descendants in Greece.  As their behavior so clearly shows.

but european taxpayers havent paid a single cent for greece,im sorry.

those bail outs are loans, to be paid back in full with interest.and so far theyre being aid back.

There are good real estate opportunities in Cyprus, especially on the Occupied Side. But part of the reason this is so is that that land/property was stolen a few decades back, nobody is too sure of the stability of the current legal underpinnings for ownership, and many of the original -- very pissed off -- owners still live not far away.  :o

Practically speaking, though, nothing is likely to happen if you buy in. Further, you'll have a bit more than 2x the purchasing power since the Turkish lira is utilized there, in addition to being at a hub of travel to three continents and the usual perks of being in the Mediterranean.

yes theres that area where the turkish part and cyprus part is bordering where ppl have been driven out by army, needs bit refurbishing but is certainly cheap, also, no neighbor whatsoever ;D

Yeah, right next to the abandoned airport from the 1970s. ;D

Actually, there is a single village in the UN buffer zone where people live and property is available. Neither the Turkish nor Cypriot police operate there and a whopping 2 UN policemen "run" the area (i.e., sit on their ass and ignore all the covert illegality going on around them). Might be a place for you to consider.  ;D

How were the Turks able to invade half the island in the 1970's?  ???

Why didn't the Greek army kick them off?

Germany is doing well because of their hard work and now all the slackers think they should give them money for nothing. Germany should just leave the Euro and then they couldn't be extorted for money.

We have the same problem in the US. Everyone is getting on social security disability because they are to lazy to work. Food stamps and 2 years unemployment is killing the country. The takers are beginning to take more money than the tax payers can provide.

The Turks have more-or-less ruled Greece since the fall of Rome.  Greece was an integral part of the (Orthodox Christian) Byzantine empire, with its capitol in Constantinople.  Mainland Greece & most of the islands were repopulated with Slavic and Turkic peoples from other parts of the empire -- for reasons economic and otherwise.  When the Eastern Empire fell and the Ottoman Muslims took over, the Turkish grip on Greece loosened somewhat.  But the Ottomans were still the de-facto rulers of Greece, and they considered it a second-rate province.  Its Christian denizens were treated accordingly.

...In the 19th century, with European help, the Greeks waged a war of independence & installed a German/Bavarian king.  The monarchy has since been deposed.

Long story short:  The Greeks have a long, long history as subjects of foreign rulers.  Greek 'independence' is a relatively new concept -- for the vast majority of the past 2000 years, they've been a Turkish territory.  Ironically, they were also ruled by German nobility.

Definitely my man - but not in Euro-hole. The best A-class. Far better than USA or anyone in Europe excluding Big GERmoney.

we don't need or ask left-outs from anybody. And shouldn't give it anymore to places who make absolutely nothing but scratch each others asses all day long.


In fact, the Scandinavia (inc. FIN) should be put as " Europe+ " because the difference between FIN, SwE, NOR and the middle Europe yet alone South Europe is huge.

I'm not really familiar with their modern history, but you're right, the concept of a united 'Greek' nation is a new one.

Though, I know of the ancient and medieval history of the East Romans/Byzantines, they called themselves 'Romans' and even viewed at as an insult if their Emperor was called 'Emperor of the Greeks' instead of 'Emperor of the Romans' and claimed to represent the Roman Empire right till the fall of Constantinople in 1453.

Meanwhile, Greece and Cyprus's hated enemy continues to bolster its financial and economic position: Turkey owed the IMF $23.5 billion in 2002 and just made its final payment, reducing the sum to zero.
