from what I can see ... Europe is breaking up and the dream of a "united Europe" is dead. The politicians in Brussels are fighting this idea tooth and nail - but the breakup is inevitable. The current economic and financial arrangement is just not sustainable in the euro community.

there has been much talk about how the exit of Greece will be "good" for the country. I think the exit will happen over the next few months. But it will hardly lead to salvation for the Greek economy. Much more likely is that the country will plunge into a full-fledged economic depression and a high level of political uncertainty i.e. anarchy.

We are witnessing the complete re-alignment of Europe.
These are events that will re-shape history books. Right now - they are our daily headlines.
