It's clearly something people have believed. I have not moved away from opposing that because it's stupid. I have actually engaged fairly with
your posts and discussed why I do not think Germany are trying to control Europe.

Neither you or can say for sure what the Germans' long term aim is but what you can't deny is that Germany is effectively running the show already and if that wasn't by design then it's a very happy accident for them isn't it.

Happy accident? How is this situation in their interests? They are simply attaching conditions to their bailout money to ensure they don't need bailouts to come. I don't see how giving money to failing European countries is good for them. They aren't getting anything out of it other than protecting the single currency that they depend on.

You have poured scorn aplenty on any such notion, using the old"memories of WWII" argument to try to rubbish that view.

Where in my response to your recent arguments have I said you were motivated by WW2. Show me. When I have been replying to your posts and not the ones that actually did mention WW2 made by others I have been discussing the current situation and why I don't see any evidence of a desire for Germany to run Europe.
