EUNATICS & EUNUCHS: Don’t let’s be beastly to the Germans

……just let their media be beastly to the rest of us

I got some heat last week from German sources for referring to the jingoism of the German media these days. I wonder if they’ll be able to look me in the eye today after this astonishing headline from today’s Bild.Zeitung online. It’s referring to a visit to Berlin by French President Francois Hollande. For those of you who don’t speak German, either through idleness or on principle, this is the translation:

‘The sick man of Europe visits Merkel’.

I’m afraid the Germans are and always have been their own worst enemy. Beneath the photo is the caption:

‘French Problem Child meets German Wonderkid’

und for zose off yoo still not getting it, vee are addink also ‘The ever unpopular Francois Hollande with the ever-popular Angela Merkel’. Mein Gott im Himmel, but Joseph Goebbels would’ve been proud.

Cue Radio Luxembourg DJ Jean-Claude Juncker wittering on about ‘undeserved German archetypes’ in the Greek media.
