Perhaps the worst of the policy errors during the post-World War I period was the insistence of the Allies that Germany pay war reparations — reparations that went far beyond anything that the defeated Germans could afford. As the victors, the Allies felt that it was only fair for Germany to pay for the terrible war it had waged, and they didn’t much care about whether such payments would cripple the German economy.
Which, of course, they did; by the early 1930s, the country was effectively bankrupt. And the Allies’ unrelenting demand for reparations bred immense resentment among the German people. There is not much doubt that this combination of public anger and economic distress helped facilitate the rise of Adolf Hitler.
Today, it is Germany that is making policy moves that seem insane. Locked into their modern-day orthodoxies, German politicians look at Greece with something akin to contempt. Aid to Greece — aid that is given grudgingly, when it is given at all — must be accompanied by severe austerity measures, the Germans believe, because the Greeks need to learn how to live within their means, the way Germans do.

I'm realising that I have a hard time reading off a monitor. I feel like I get lost easily. I'll see if I find some stuff to post; thread deserves to live more.
I feel like i need to stand up and clap for my life whilst listening to this, Pretty well done

Nhar it-18 ta' Lulju, 1551, għaxart elef suldat Tork kmandati minn Sinan Paxa waslu fil-port ta' Marsamxett, fejn kienu pjanaw li jattakkaw lill-Kavallieri fil-Birgu u l-Forti Sant'Anġlu. Madankollu dawn raw li l-forti kienet b'saħħitha wisq biex jirbħuha fi ftit jiem. B'hekk it-Torok telqu lejn l-Imdina biex jieħdu dik il-belt. Sadanittant, il-Kavallieri fl-Imdina, li kienu kmandati mill-Franċiz Nicolas Durand de Villegaignon, qalu lin-nies li kienu jgħixu fl-inħawi biex jistkennu fil-belt. Malli waslu t-Torok, raw ħafna nies fl-Imdina u ħasbu li hemm ħafna suldati jiddefendu l-belt. Madankollu, il-vapuri tat-Torok f'Marsamxett kienu ġew attakkati mill-Kavallieri. Minħabba dan, iddeċidew li jattakkaw Għawdex. vocaroo.com/i/s00913AvV7NJ

Your french is still good mate. I'm glad to hear Germany hasn't ruined you completely.

Better than I expected, to be honest. "go" is wrongly written though, I just realised that and you read it well, if written incorrectly as that's the correct sound for our "g". is is supposed to be "ġo" with the ġ sounding like the j in John.
L-imħalla is the Maltese name for a constellation or group of stars, particularly the Pleiades - the bright star system that has inspired many legends throughout the world. The Mnajdra temple may be designed to track the movement of this particular star system which appears to have been of significant importance to our ancestors. In mid winter the bright star cluster passes high overhead and would be reflected in the dark water of a well full of winter rainwater. Ripples from a stone falling into the gloom or a cold winter breeze would cause the image to move and bring L-imħalla to life.

Ich zog meinen kleinen harten "Toby" ganz aus seinem engen Kanal heraus, stürzte mich mit meinem Mund auf sein geweitetes Loch und stieß mit der Zunge hinein. Die kleinen, jetzt komplett rosig durchbluteten Fältchen waren straff gespannt, die plötzlich verlassene Öffnung ging auf und zu wie das Maul eines Goldfisches im Glas. Meine Zunge umkreiste die Rosette, dann drang sie wieder wild ein, bevor ich sie mit beiden Zeigefingern penetrierte und weit auseinanderzog.
»Ah, Toby, Du geile Sau. Was machst Du ...? Oh, Scheiße, ist das gut.«
There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continues to elude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself; no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing.
