halla not only sounds a bit misinformed, but extremely opinionated on his perception. I skimmed his "blog" fashioned "rant" ( I seriously doubt anyone read all the way thru it)...to call it anything other, would be a joke, as he is obviously not a journalist...jouranlist try to investigate and research their information and base even their editorial commentary on well informed, factual data.

I think when I read Stalin saying something about the "EU", I realised what I was dealing with...as the EU didnt exist prior to Stalin's death. or the lame opinion of the US ever investing anything into the Balklands...that is identical to saying US's interest in Israel is non-existent. Basically it sounds like a typical American, jealous of European superiority and economic might.
