I'm slowly beginning to fear that the FIFA Peace Prize wasn't justified after all.
Imagine being loyal to and following orders from a child molester‼️

Washington, you have a problem. Unbelievable.
I missed this from the Manhattan Institute survey on December 1 of the "current GOP." 37% are Holocaust deniers, which, to my surprise, is greater than the percentage (33%) that believes vaccines cause autism.

Interessant, aber ist das wahr? Ist die EU, der grösste Gläubiger der USA, am längeren Hebel?

"... wenn die EU ihre Schulden gegenüber den USA über Nacht fällig stellen würde, würde die USA innerhalb von Sekunden in den Bankrott getrieben. So ernst ist die Lage."

Einfach traurig: Brillenpinguine in Südafrika.

Auf Dassen Island und Robben Island starben von 2004 bis 2011 schätzungsweise 62'000 Pinguine an Nahrungsmangel = verhungert!

Mit dem FIFA-Friedenspreis ehrt eine korrupte Organisation, die von Milliardenumsätzen angetrieben wird, einen korrupten Politiker, der nach Anerkennung strebt, unschuldige Menschen tötet und Menschenrechte verletzt.

Schäm dich, FIFA (okay, die kennen ja keine Scham).
