This probably explains why the Exchange Traded Funds for the countries in Europe are way down today with not other news or factor.

Intersting that Reuters didn't report the possible negative impact of Iran with ICBM's to be fitted with nuclear weapons on the Euro stock markets.

possible negative impact

Possibly because rooters doesn't consider a declining stock market as a negative. Remember they're 1st cousin to the Commie News Network.
Maybe my memory is defective, but it sure seems that back in the 50's and 60's rooters was a credible news source.

Sadly I know about what you speak. Are we really that old?

I fear that we may be. However I take solace in the story of the two bulls on top of the hill, overlooking all the fine looking cows below in the valley, and the young strong energetic and enthusiastic young bull starts jumping up and down, snorting with all of his exuberant testosterone, and says to the older bull "I've got a great idea, let's go charging down this hill as fast as we can, GRAB one of them good lookin' cows, and have our way with her!"

Whereupon, the older, wiser and a little slower bull said "Son, I got a better idea, let's you and me just slowly and casually stroll down this ol' hill, take our time and not draw attention to ourselves, and instead of ONE cow, we'll have 'em ALL!!!"

Heh. ;

From one old bull to another, I wish you an excellent day and weekend! :)

"Maybe my memory is defective, but it sure seems that back in the 50's and 60's rooters was a credible news source."

I can remember my parents and Grandfather calling them Rooters and not being very positive.

"Possibly because rooters doesn't consider a declining stock market as a negative. Remember they're 1st cousin to the Commie News Network."

My Granddad had a great ability to spot communists, and he felt that Rooters was pro communist if not all commie.

Last but not least Rooters is basically impossible to find the true ownership. Shortly after 9/11 they banned the word terrorist from being used in any of their sanitized reports on the WOT. At that time the internet was stating a super Rich Opecker Prince, who lived in London, was the controlling owner of Rooters. He was the reason for the no terrorism tag being used with Islamofascist terrorism.

Ok rocketscience, who in Old Europe [what we are referring to when we say Europe] would wake up to reality?

France?
Germany?
Italy?
Spain?

For every point you would try to make in the affirmative I would have two lined up showing how none of them have pre or post 9/11 stood up to the Muslims.

France might turn around and Nuke Iran [overwhelmingly unlikely] if they were hit but even then they would quickly fall back into their Euromalaise...regardless, they would never occupy Iran. Is Germany going to invade? Italy? Spain? Please.

Their very identities are inseparably wrapped up in an Anti-Israel retardation. To go balls to the wall with any Muslim regime would be antithetical to what they have become [some would say; always were].

Anyone holding out for Europe is a dreamweaver. Not because I say so...because it is reality. And no amount of spineless, perfumed, or condescending speech is going to change that.

We interrupt this emergency broadcast system announcement for an important Amber Alert. The two drunken, rampaging teen girls have been found...

My guess is that many are trading up to oil exporting countries.

Yep. Now within six to twelve months Iran can threaten Europe with nuclear annihalation for big money blackmail.

Don't pay much attention to the teasing, and of course, never give up. As with many ignorant western Europeans, many in the USA avoid history study and news of war.

Think of the behavior of hooligans with too much beer in them, singing "Rule Britannia." Although members of US trash culture reject the mere, general thought of "empire," they don't want to be bothered to move away from their television celebrities. From either group, we won't hear much more than slogans and "sound bites."

Then the elections in those Euro countries and their concessions to Islamotrash will be very interesting.

LOL well I have well wound you up haven't I.

Italy has troops in Iraq, Germany has troops in Afghanistan, France has quite a lot of combat experience from fighting a number of brush wars all over African Continent.

Just because some European countries did not concur with America on how to deal with Iraq does not mean that Europe is finished. Differing countries have differing national needs. Europe is not always wrong anymore than she is always right, but that also goes for America.

And my country is part of Europe and we have troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

I even did a tour out there.
