What are these Greeks flying around in Israel for? The Germans didn’t give them bailout money just so they can burn it on flying around their F-16s. Get back to work, you worthless Mediterranean, olive skinned ingrates!
Greece is the only state in the troubled region of east Med that provides stability for western interests. Get the whole picture before posting your full of hate comments.
A bankrupt state provides no stability, only liability.
The state hasn’t bankrupted, Greece has the same financial problems as Spain Italy and Portugal have. Instead of wasting your time eating cheeseburgers bring some facts. Those med countries dont share common borders with Canada mr illinois,they have 120 million muslims at their front door.How many wars broke at your borders the past 10 years?
….someone has lots of complexes….
Maybe because Greece is your backup plan when Israel fails.
But Greece failed first, didn’t it?
Nope, as USA didnt bunkrupted 5 years ago.
Wow, what language are you speaking? No wonder the Germans think you Greeks are even more stupid than the Turks.
hehe. PDM Bridge and JK Steel Erectors are gonna be so proud of you. Nice work Nick.
Nice but the music was annoying.
