The Greek parliment voted to surrender to the Germans. Which sounds like an inflammatory way to describe it, but that's exactly what it was. And yet, it would seem that the German finance minister is apparently disappointed that the entire country wasn't plowed under and the ground sown with salt.
Anglea Merkel may go down as the third-worst German leader since the Prussians welded the country together 144 years ago.[1] She has torn off the fig leaf that Germany was one of many nations in the EU to reveal that Germany has primacy in the EU. If there ever was a chance in Hell that Britain would join the monetary union, it evaporated on Sunday. It is more likely that the Brits will leave the EU entirely. You may see more and more EU countries having second thoughts about having their borders as open as those between most American states.[2] The Schengen Agreement will collapse, especially when nations begin withdrawing from the Eurozone. All the blame will be laid at Merkel's feet.
Meanwhile, one of the intellectual creators of the EU now seems to regard the EU as a German hegemon.
And everyone else will soon realize that Churchill was right.[3]
