• G-8: OBAMA PLEDGES SLAUGHTERING.

And it has been said with the solemnity of the formula to open a new era for humanity: those times are finished, referring it to the healthy skepticism that previous governments faced the "problem of global temperature".. and other thermometers deep in the ass.
Another "sacrifice" will be likely is the closing of the Panama Canal since its enlargement, has been granted to a Spanish company. The closure would be "wonderful" to continue the "news" and explanations to help crisis.

In Spain they say us with all fanfare: Spain has "won" the concession of the Canal. Ie it is not a company or group of companies (Opus Dei, probably), but they sell it as a "national victory" of which we should all rejoice. Of course, the shares of the company (Sacyr-Vallehermoso) have risen dramatically. But we will see, Spain only makes things worse, because so, it introduces the factor of "political" tension and loss for those who earn their living by working, dedicated to the economy.

We all know as the Suez Canal in this brothel of History that is the Mediterranean Sea. Not only is closed, but nearly plugged by sand.

At the same time, they used to tell us, Spaniards, that the king Philip II (1580) already ordered to make plans for a Canal in the isthmus and others, to make navigable Castilla, who is in the interior of Spain, far from the sea. It is likely that the Spanish Catholic imperialism, also used to make navigable Castilla today, which only uses the money from other spanish regions.

Another: until 80´s the Spanish rail-gauge was different (broader) to European standards (standardized) and also Russia, the other end of Europe, had a wide different the other two. I do not know how is in Russia this issue. In Spain, is now unified obviously.

Perhaps an exaggeration, as always, but I am Spanish and I know the Spanish and latin "modus facendi": history becomes imaginary empire when it is only imaginary past.
