Not to be thát person, but Archduke Franz Ferdinand was not a Serb, he was Austrian. Even though Austria-Hungary did annex Bosnia and Herzegovina in the late 19th century, Franz Ferdinand was not born there - in fact he was born before the annexation.

Unless you mean his killer, but then your wording is a little off and I would say "murder BY a Serbian." Even so, the ethnicity of the murderer wasn't really as important as his target. ;)

600k? You dropped some zeros there. It's $600,000,000.

He'd have to go a lot higher than 10k p.p. to even make them consider it, so that'd be billions. Luckily he has millions of tax payers who can fund his little obsession!

That's the thing. There are probably a lot of people thinking the exact same thing, you just haven't found each other.

Hmm, I would hope, but I doubt US power and influence will disappear that easily. It'll probably just be more negative.

Ha, and France is the largest country in the EU!

I was going to say this. Trump thinks the EU already is what I wish it will become.

Maybe his efforts will push us further into that direction though?

My god, it's so petty, seriously.

If I were Canada, I'd make a new door on the Canadian side and then I'd build a brick wall right at the demarcation line. Let the Americans have their 40% of the building, devoid of books and stage. They'll have a bunch of chairs to sit in.

Fucking enjoy.
