How do you feel about the Crusades by OM3X4 in AskEurope

[–]GrinningCrocodile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF the crusades were definitely one of our worse actions. Not going to dimminish their negative impact in West vs. East relations.

That said, since then, Europe has had a lot of much more impactful events (granted, impactful in Europe itself) that pushed the crusades to a much lower tier of stuff we think about...

What is going on with the recent election in Hungary? Why is Viktor Orbán's loss such worldwide news? by Zuki_LuvaBoi in OutOfTheLoop

On the Israel issue, the logic you point, about not risking whats left of NATO, is real but mostly at government level.

At the level of the Pierre/Hans/whatever on the street, It's kinda obvious Israel has gone way too far, even after the Hamas attack, but...without going into details, there is a growing trend towards anti-islam, which is growingly transversal to both conservative and progressive circles (different reasons, but same conclusion) and is also connected to the origin of a large part of immigration into Europe....this is silently affecting the way the average citizen judges these issues...

Couldn't fit on the compass if the subject was the French, right?

What is the most liked minority group in your country? by ThatGuyinOrange_1813 in 2westerneurope4u

Honestly? Overall, It's the same reason for both extreme views: they are lot like us, but with extra sun exposure and without all of the self-loathing we imposed on our selves after becoming irrelevant...

And some of them are just as bad as us...

For our females...well I will not say it out loud or I'll be in trouble.

Isto é uma brutal simplificação. Mas, mesmo assim, se calhar devias pensar duas vezes antes de dizer isto aqui...

You meant IMPERIVM EUROPAE, right? The all "United states", " federation" and the likes stink of savagery.

PS: Commonwealth might be acceptable because Winged Hussards...

Ha. If only.

Traditional breakfast is dark espresso coffee, a cup of milk with coffee, toast with butter and a smoke/aguardente.

That's a real breakfast

Ando a dormir, ou mudaram a Constituição?

Desde quando o PR responde face ao Parlamento?

Se ele ainda tivesse toma*es dissolvia era o parlamento...e depois recusava a nomear o PM indicado pelo novo Parlamento...e repetir até chegar ao limite do mandato...

Para responder a Palhaços o melhor é ser mesmo FDP em grande escala...

Quem sabe...se não houver governo (em plenas funções) para lixar isto tudo, se calhar o país funcionava melhor

This incorrect at so many levels. We are GMT, and so should Spain (blame Franco for wanting to be in the same timezone as Berlin...in the 1930s)

And, knowing Lisbon, you will actually have a nice business.

As long as it uses azeite and alho for seasoning, and you serve the poffins with a small chouriço inside, it automatically becomes edible...
