    It always seems to come down to the money, doesn’t it? Money if far more important than human rights and human lives. No wonder the Bible says that money is the root of all kinds of evil.

    almost makes you wonder if the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium along with the other EU counties that lost someone, is not waiting until the train with their dead gets to a safe place. then maybe they will slap sanctions that will do something on Russia.

    But then again you can not say how OUR government will act or react at any given crisis, so who knows how the EU will act or react to this one.
