RE:“it’s the victors who write the history books ” Germany lost the war, FYI. RE: “reeks of entitlement” Are you serious? What the U.S. will eventually have to pay (rightly) is immaterial to the issue at hand: the pillage of Greece (& potential all southern Europe) by European, mostly German, bankers being carried out under the guise of “morality”–an astonishing term to be bandied about by the Germans, the French, or Belgium (as in Belgian Congo). The North wants cheap labor, Greek islands and facilities, and sloughing off responsibility for theft, as the history of debts exacted under Nazi occupation is on point.
