Oh-Oh, sounds to me like the Euro’s are fiddling around and heading toward an “American” solution here. If the Poles wa-wa enough about this, they stand a pretty good chance of getting the Germans to start feeling all guilty. Just a hop, skip and a jump to reparations from that point.

Is he not right? Didn’t the Nazis kill millions of Poles? Or did I miss something?

The Poles make a strong point: Germany should not get rewarded with extra political clout because they were able to murder millions of their neighbors' citizens.

This isn't about reparations or whining - it's about equity.

You're not supposed to be able to profit from crime.

If they don't "wa wa" about it, Germany gets to benefit from its past acts.

Its like me stealing your wallet, taking your cash, and buying a lottery ticket and winning, then telling you to pipe down when you complain.

On the other hand, anyone who thinks Germany and France should have more votes than any other country in the EU just because they are larger needs to have their head examined. Germany and France are the worst run socialist cess pools in the EU.
