It’s more likely to be a case of “keeping your friends close and enemies closer.”

Wilful blindness, political myopia and deliberate ignorance are the fateful problem. Muscat’s government is merely the result of an underlying cause.

This is going to be built at Pembroke, somewhere between Australia Hall and St. Catherine’s school. Perhaps Labour will earn some extra pocket money by leasing Australia Hall to them too. Hadn’t it been sequestered for the Labour Party’s own use?

I am sure the US is not that naive. They know that the PL is the national socialist party which counts avowed xenophobes amongst its most visible supporters. I mean just take a look at Ms. Tua for starters. What an ironic post for a person to have. That would be like making Churchill the head of the anti-smoking campaign, cigarette in mouth.

The US just knew that PL would win so they are doing the same as what the rest of us a doing – damage control. The EU has its hands full and the US is distracted at the moment and is moving its gaze to the Pacific. Hence, Malta would be irrelevant were it not for the fact that any cementing of the China-Malta relationship (slavery) would affect the US’s attempts at containing China. So yes, I think that the US and the EU must be having some very interesting exchanges with regard to China buying Malta’s EU veto as well as its future.

The EU probably now knows that unlike Austria (the Jorg Haider years) Malta cannot be brought down as China will just keep injecting it with cash thus aggravating the slavery. This does not look good at all. It is going to take decades to get us out of this now. Thanks switchers, but more importantly thanks to all of the socialist faithful – you and your children will suffer too.

Funny how a BBC report put emphasis on Obama’s propensity to distraction when it comes to Asian interests.

How China’s filling the vacant space every time he doesn’t show up, that’s the third time in a row last week.

Spot on Ciccio, every agreement carries his signature, ‘mhux fl-interess tal-poplu’ et al.

Plans for the freeport next, given that Marsaxlokk may disrupt operations, traffic coordination and control may be required.

Dunno how a Gozitan sets up a thriving weapons cottage industry. We’ve been there.

I hope that the so called switchers are happy now. Mintoff sold our national soul to Gaddafi to get money for his children allowance’s scheme. Muscat is selling our national identity for 200 million Euros when the EU has given Malta much more than that!

Some switchers might be happier than others, you know… Chinese young men make great house boys. U ifhimni.

They just saw the writing on the wall (as most people did) and took the pragmatic approach. If anything they may have been the first to notice the ‘China ‘ connection.

To be honest I don’t think the US will fret either way. It is more interested in (finally) catching up with what is going on in Africa.
