Just embarrassing and dumb
I can’t remember having seen something more embarrassing and dumb than this one:
One of the moments I’m happy that I’m not American.

Americans, do you really want to vote for an old man who isn’t able to understand the world?

Yes, America is the centre of the world. But why then do not even people living in the centre of the world know anything about the centre of the world. Or even beyond the centre?
My dear American friends, shame on you. Take any European, he would’ve answered all questions correctly, even if it were a 12 year old boy (from Germany for example):

I guess this is what Obama was talking about when he asked the audience:
Why do Americans basically only speak … English? When you come to Germany, Italy or the Netherlands, the people talk to you in your language. Everybody should learn different languages!
According to this I always find it more than funny when I communicate around the world and in 1 from 100 cases some native English speaking moron tells me “Err, you have a European accent”. Really? Asshole.

On this one I agree 100% with Obama:

I speak German (of course), quite good English and some Spanish. And you my American friends?
Dank Thomas Nolte bin ich heute auf ein unglaubliches Thema aufmerksam geworden. Aber seht selbst, bitte nehmt euch die 45 Minuten Zeit, es betrifft wirklich jeden:

Deshalb habe ich diese Petition unterzeichnet. Sie hat folgenden Inhalt:
Hugh Grant
Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer
Monsanto Company
800 North Lindbergh Boulevard
St. Louis, MO-63167
(314) 694-1000Dear Mr. Grant:
We, the undersigned, are deeply concerned about the direction Monsanto Company has taken in the past decade with respect to sustainable agriculture and farmers’ rights. Right now we are at a critical crossroads in history, and I fear that Monsanto Company is not contributing to the nation’s welfare with a “profits over people” attitude.
Monsanto Company has embarked on a vicious campaign against family farmers in the North American heartland, as well as across the world. These hardworking farmers are the backbone of our nation’s food supply and national security. The current climate of insecurity has been exacerbated by your company’s policies of intimidation, lawsuits and defamation.
Monsanto’s legal actions against Percy Schmeiser, the Rodney Nelson family, and the Oakhurst Dairy for example, are deplorable attacks, and do not reflect your “Stake in the Ground” pledge to honesty and decency.
The North American farm sector is becoming a veritable wasteland. Monsanto’s Genetically Engineered crops have increased pesticide use, destroyed key export markets and threaten global food safety. Over 90% of American consumers want genetically engineered foods labeled, while 60% or more want GE-Free food for themselves and for their families.
Family farmers have the right to produce the safe, sustainable food without fear of intimidation and litigation. Consumers have the right to choose food that guarantees their families’ health and safety. I demand that Monsanto change course by adopting the following practices:
1. Stop intimidating small family farmers
2. Stop force-feeding untested and unlabeled genetically engineered foods on consumers
3. Stop using billions of dollars of taxpayers’ money to subsidize genetically engineered crops- cotton, soybeans, corn, and canola.Sincerely,
Ingo Vogelmann

Für seine Verdienste um die transatlantische Partnerschaft ist der frühere US-Präsident George Bush mit dem Henry A. Kissinger-Preis der American Academy in Berlin ausgezeichnet worden. In der Laudatio hieß es, niemand verdiene die Auszeichnung mehr als er.
Bisher mochte ich Kissinger …
Darüber hinaus ehrte Kissinger den ehemaligen US-Präsidenten als Mitbegründer der friedlichen Beziehungen zum heutigen Russland und der internationalen Koalition gegen den Irak nach der Besetzung Kuwaits mit dem Sieg im Golfkrieg.

June 24, 2008 Warden Message
On Wednesday evening, June 25, Germany and Turkey will meet in the semifinal round of the 2008 European Football Championship in Basel, Switzerland. Various cities in Germany have set up viewing areas for the public to watch the live broadcast of this game. The “Fan Mile” in front of the Brandenberg Gate in Berlin is expected to draw up to 500,000 German and Turkish fans, Frankfurt am Main will host a public viewing area at the Rossmarkt, and Munich is setting up a large public viewing area at the Olympic Stadium where 30,000 fans are anticipated. Similar events are planned in other cities and spontaneous celebrations or demonstrations related to the match may occur throughout Germany.
Because of the high fan interest in this prestigious semi-final elimination game between Germany and Turkey, there exists the possibility that disturbances, including violent disturbances may occur before, during or after the match, which begins at 20:45. At a minimum, post-game celebrations will likely result in traffic congestion in larger cities. Crowds celebrating previous German and/or Turkish victories have blocked streets and rocked vehicles attempting to pass through them.
We remind American citizens in Germany that even mass gatherings and demonstrations intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence. American citizens are therefore urged to avoid the areas of demonstrations if possible, and to exercise caution if within the vicinity of any demonstrations. American citizens should stay current with media coverage of local events and be aware of their surroundings at all times.

Thanks for this excellent vids, Faisal.
