    Socialist =/= Communist

    I though we were, the danes. Or so I've been told when someone not agreeing with me on the internet. Calling someone racist effectively proves a point.

    The E.U. Your opinions?

    I completely missed your reply. Must've really hurt being told germany isn't the most spoken language in Europe. You really should care about danes not learning german considering you rambling about german being the most spoken language in Europe. And about being a real nation.. are you even...

    Socialist =/= Communist

    Let me help you post per capita average income 2003: United States$37,500 Denmark$31,210 The difference is a high degree of inequality in the USA compared to any western country. 20% earn 2-6 times the average income in the USA and almost 50% earn less than the average income in the USA. 20%...

    The E.U. Your opinions?

    So, when on vacation in say Portugal, Greece or Norway you'd speak german and be amazed if none of them understood you? Ive been in most european countries and most people (especially young people) know enough english to communicate at some level. I dont think that many outside germany...

    Poll: 31% of Europeans blame Jews for global financial crisis

    Concluding 31% of the Europeans blame the Jews for the financial crisis based on these questions is extremely far-fetched. I live in Europe, and I've never witnessed a single person blaming "the Jews" for the financial crisis, or anything else for that matter. Seems to me the result was given up...

    Topless Danes

    Men won't be sexually aroused or interested in women who they see at the beach with tops and a little bikini bottom walking around... :thumbsup: thanks for helping me see the light. I'm a male living in Denmark. Seriously, naked breasts are no big deal at places where you're used to see them...

    India rising and challenging China

    The poverty line you're refering to considers one above the poverty line if you can spend the amount of money required to buy food equivalent to a nutritional level of 2100 calories per day - estimated 550 Rs per month if you ad inflation since 2000. This means an Indian is above the poverty...

    India rising and challenging China

    Im basically saying India is a poor country, no matter how good the infrastructure is in certain places in India, no matter how many millionaires or billionaires you've got in India or how much manpower India has got fit for military service. UK is part of EU. EU and the USA both have a GDP...

    Danish Cartoon "Plotters" held

    Jyllands Posten did not ask the cartoonist to make degrading cartoons of Muhammed. It was exactly a matter of free speech which lead to the drawings being published in the newspaper. Before the cartoons were made, a generel debate about religion had been going in the newspaper, and it somehow...

    Thank you USA

    Its easy to skew stats, just like you do by arguing two countries total amount of aid are to be compared, ignoring total population. In my country we had 31 murders in 2006. USA had 17.000 murders in 2006. This means its 550 times more likely you're being murdered in USA compared to Denmark...

    India rising and challenging China

    If you'd care to look at the link I gave you, it says in the beginning: In the US, Indians and Indian-Americans make up the largest non-Caucasian segment of the American medical community, where they account for one in every 20 practicing doctors. That's still 5%, no matter how many Indians...

    India rising and challenging China

    Now the Indian volunteers liberated Italy in WW2? Indians were there fighting under British command, that's right. But India didn't liberate Italy. I've seen a few of your posts. You seem to constantly exaggerate on behalf of India. I noticed you said you'd shut up if some of your unsupported...

    U.S. Says It Accidentally Killed 9 Iraqi Civilians

    I never said cut and run was the answer to Iraqs problems. The Americans need to stay in Iraq for more than a generation, in order to succeed. Do you think the american voters think its a good idea having 50.000 - 100.000 troops stationed in Iraq for 20-30 years, while loosing hundreds maybe a...

    U.S. Says It Accidentally Killed 9 Iraqi Civilians

    I do read the papers, watch the news and look at the internet. How come you and I seems to disagree about the situation in Iraq? Maybe I need to watch Fox news only, or some other American flagwaving news channel or news paper.

    India catching up to China and USA!

    You said: "That poverty was due to the British. Especially since WWII since the British took all the food from India to feed it's soldiers and countrymen back home. India had a surplus production for 10 years but had a famine that killed 18 million people." Now its 18 million over a period of...

    India catching up to China and USA!

    Did the british take ALL the food in India to feed the 2.5 million all volunteer Indian army, present in Africa, Burma and Italy? Seriously, no famine left 18 million dead in India during world war 2 or after. There was something called the Bengal Famine in 1943, which happend because of...

    U.S. Says It Accidentally Killed 9 Iraqi Civilians

    I think its just a little convenient to label insurgents "Al Qaeda" or even terrorists. Its of course a terrorist act to bomb civilians in a marketplace or a mosque, but I doubt insurgents attacking US military convoys are considered terrorist acts by the Iraqi population. Terrorist actions...
