I have been watching articles pour forth about Cyprus all weekend. I am almost as aggravated with the majority of them as I am with what took place.

Far from it; the nations of Europe, Germany, France, the Netherlands and the rest, demanded that this take place, a “fait accompli,” the President of Cyprus said and Europe annexes Cyprus.
