Yup. Any questions? xP

The reason that the Japanese economy contracted as much as it did this quarter (1.7%) is a new tax that Abe introduced (more specifically a large increase in the VAT). Since Japan has such a huge debt he is trying to minimize Japan's deficit.

Greece's economy contracted by 0.2% as well. The lowest drop since 2008. Maybe we'll even record positive growth next quarter.

I guess we could give you some A-7s though. :)

Why would we sell our Mirages? They are perfectly capable planes. Unless someone gave us a ton of money in which case we'd sell them to him and replace them with Rafales or Eurofighters.

Talk about a slow recovery.

The incompetence of the Greek authorities when it comes to deportation is clear. As is its inability of tackling the issue of people who hire the illegal immigrants. Also calling Athens and Sparta kingdoms is incorrect. Athens was a democracy at the time while Sparta was an oligarchy. There were...

No, actually he's American. And I'm not sure about him being Jewish, after all many people accused him of adding too many Christian references in the "Man of Steel" movie. When the Greek press asked him about the historical inaccuracies of the movie from what I remember he said that the movie...

We're actually thinking right now and discussing with the troika about the issue of these non-performing loans. The money that remains after a person with a non-performing loan has covered his basic needs will be measured and then based on this the time that the loan has to be paid back will be...

Greece had absolutely no involvement in the making of the film anyway, lol. And Greece has pressed the EU multiples times to ease Iran's sanctions.

On this, I'd say that the AH-1Z is generally superior to the T-129. Weren't you guys going to buy some Eurocopters and fit some rockets on them? What happened with those?

Congratz to India. It really needs to keep investing there because it has 2x-3x more population than the EU has. Greece is the 4th best sheep milk producer and the 8th best goat milk producer. :)

It was a militarily interesting conflict either way you look at it. The Greek Cypriots had the T-34 which was an amazing tank, better than the German Panzer IV of WW2, but the problem was that WW2 was over 30 years before this conflict started... On the contrary the Turkish M47s and the M48s...

Who said that there is no scientific break through in the private defense sector? There is a bunch of examples disproving that. General Electric makes some great military aircraft engines for example. What about Boeing? What about Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics? They made the F-16. GD also...

Greece overall came in place 50. Great progress since we were in place 55 last year. Especially when looking at the variables: We were the first country in the world on the sector of printing and publishing output! And 3rd by pupil-teacher ratio in secondary education! And 5th by our post-high...

Sure. :) Commando G.Mpikakis in a photograph during the invasion of Cyprus. He fought defending Nicosia where using his bazooka he destroyed six Turkish tanks. Nominated for the medal of bravery which he never received (nobody from his squad did). Killed in a car crash some years later...

Amazing! Now we know how to counter global warming! Throw nukes at it!!! xD

Alexander beat Porus even though his force at the time was much smaller. Ofc Porus still managed to inflict heavy damage on Alexander's army and because of this he is usually seen as the most skilled and capable opponent that Alexander has faced. Alexander himself recognized that and let Porus...

Actually the 1800 number is true for the F-35As that the USAF will get. These don't operate from carriers. The F-35Bs and Cs that the marines and the navy will get are the only ones able to operate from aircraft carriers. And the navy will get some specialized F-18s as well to jam enemy radars...

You're right man but I'm just saying. All of that stuff would mainly help you from a long distance.
