If you are watching the news you should be gathering pretty clearly that it is Europe that hold the key/power for the world. What Europe does money wise for countries such as Greece, and just getting its house in order, financially and economically, will either put the world (especially the West) in the safe zone, or send it down deeper into the economic black hole it went into in 2008.
The Beast of Europe with its iron and clay mixture, I'm sure knows it holds the key to the future, and hence Europe will be feeling the beginning of the power to hold in their hands.
What surprised me today was the fact that the news in reminding us again that Italy was not too far away from the position of Greece, also gave us the fact that Italy is the 8th LARGEST economic power on earth. I would never have guest that fact. But come to think of it, of course when the G8 meet, Italy is among them, so of course they had to be somewhere in the 8 largest economic power on earth. I was forgetting that fact.
Well indeed the world is looking with trepidation at Europe as they work among themselves to not only solve Greece's situation but the Eurozone and its unity as a power, as they begin to realize the power they now hold in the world.
Germany is THE most important player. Whatever Germany finally decides, whatever deal they make with France and Europe as a whole ... they have to go through the German parliament .... they have a process to follow, so it all has a ways to go before Europe finally decides the ultimate plan for its bailout as a unity of countries, which will then effect North America. Canada's finance minister has said today that Canada will be effect either good or bad in its economy, depending how Europe moves in its trying to figure the answer to Europe's money and economic problems.
Yes even in this hard difficult decision making for Europe, she will know that she has the power as what will happen in the world's economy, by the decision deals she will have to make in the next week.

The decision of Blair and Bush to make war with Iraq, under supposedly true facts that proved to be fully and completely un-factual, a war which has extended now for about 9 years .... well part of the truth of it all came out in a recent movie called "Green Zone" (staring Matt Damon) which showed the lies, the cover-ups, and false information, that finally of course had to come out, that there was no "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq.
A movie I picked up in WalMart yesterday (in their $5 bin) is called "In the Valley of Elah" staring Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron. Well first let me say it is VERY MUCH an "R" rated movie - and should NOT be watch BUT by ADULTS - hence I'm saying 18 years and older. But it is the sad truth based upon truth, of the DISASTER that this war has done to the minds of hundreds if not thousands of our young men and women. The mental state a lot of them come home in, besides the ones coming home with body parts missing. But this move focusses on the "mental side" of far too many of our young people when arriving back home. Yes it shows some of the horrid things of the war in Iraq, but the movie shows the horrid things that can go on in the lives of those returning from Iraq.
The movie is a Warner Independent Pictures - been out for a number of years, so you'll have to find it if not on line, in the $5 bins in WalMart. It's not a pleasant movie to watch, it is raw, nudity, but the sad facts that such things take place in some of the lives of those returning from Iraq.
I do not know if Blair and Bush had taken any courses in the fallout to the human mind and body that such a war would bring back to our shores and lands. They were ivy league University guys but not ivy league in the results of such a war, then of course they were silly and vain enough to think it mwould be all over in a matter of WEEKS. Obviously all this ain't going to be publicized in any large way. The USA Government and USA armed forces really do not want you to know the nitty-gritty of what this kind of war can and does bring, mentally in fighting and mentally when arriving home.
It it a film that certainly helps you HATE war, and long for the age to come when nations will learn war no more - when nations will live at peace with each other - when the Spirit of God will be poured out on all peoples - when Jesus will reign as King and Lord over all the earth, and there will be peace on earth.
Oh how we should continue to pray "Thy Kingdom come, Thy WILL be done on earth as it is in heaven."
