Utter BS, I wonder how many french know La Marseillaise, and definetely very few young kids. I remember when there was a fuss in french media because most of the national football team players wouldn't sing along the hymn. Many things are a bit weird in France, in a bad way, but kids do learn christmas songs and similar before bloodthirsty nationalist propaganda. Also the country is far from the worst in matters of nationalism.
Thanks Dealmaker, I read your first post on the merits of keeping money in the banks of larger countries with a diversified economy after asking. It makes sense, yet the threat of capital controls is ever increasing in the EU, especially for individuals.
Nationalist propaganda ????!!!! <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/laWIjgWDesE?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> This anthem was written when some kings were going under the guillotine for tyranny, and other "let them eat cakes"
BBC_Joe_Lynam Joe Lynam BBC Biz The road outside #Cyprus parliament is now closed because soon to be jobless Laiki bank workers were attacking politicians
Uh yeah, it's a pretty strong nationalist song ( I personally despise it). On a side note, here's the parody from latmatv http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4Ho9zSAK-s
You are being VERY unfair here. People in France are not responsible for what is happening in the Middle East - this is mostly the American fault in not planning the situation well, and ensuring the security.
The politicians weave their spells and the deluded people kill each other for La Gloire ? Ridiculous really.
