'Germany approves subsidized sale of military submarine to Israel'

A senior German official said Wednesday that the government has approved the subsidized sale of another Dolphin-type military submarine to Israel. The official said Germany has set aside €135 million ($180 million) in next year's budget to pay for about a third of its cost. Dolphin-class submarines are capable of carrying nuclear-tipped missiles, but there is no evidence that Israel has armed them with such weapons. Israel already has three Dolphin submarines from Germany — one half-funded and two entirely funded by Berlin, a staunch Israeli ally.

I wish some one would give me a submarine. (whimper … whimper, feelings of neglect)

I would suppose if someone precipitated the mass genocide of 13 million or so members of your extended family, that party may be sympathetic to granting you a sub.

Well there was that Potato Famine thing the Brits did to my family.

I think the most common figure for the Holocaust was 6.8 million and the rest of 13 million figure was made up of Gypsies, Catholics and other ethnic minorities.

I am putting my hopes on that letter to Santa.

You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.

Germany is running scared of Iran and wants Israel to take it out if necessary.

You can bet your last bagel these puppies are nuclear armed and on station already.

Israel > Dolphin-class

Iran > Ghadir-class

The only thing that worries me is where will I find a Christmas Tree big enough for Santa to fit it under.

Thank you Germany. Israel’s best ally.

The British didn't stave Irish on purpose and din't invent the blight. They certainly didn't help the Irish as much as the could have or should have. And they were happy to see Irish and Scotch Irish go to the US and to British Colonies. That isn't genocide.

I think the most common figure for the Holocaust was 6.8 million and the rest of 13 million figure was made up of Gypsies, Catholics and other ethnic minorities.
And if the Roma/Sinti (gypsies) get a country, perhaps Germany will help them.
