Star comment of the day
Posted by Valent:
Talking about rationality, could someone please help dispel this absurd myth that Mintoff loved his country and would have never dreamed of selling Malta.
Mintoff allied Malta with the worst possible dictators known to the world back then, and eventually, sold Malta’s soul backed by his fanatics who remain a curse and an affliction on this doomed rock.
Mintoff was a sociopath and so is Muscat. Both lack/ed feeling or any ability to empathise with those around them. Both are/were driven by money and self-aggrandizement.
It’s out of this world to listen to PN MPs bringing forth the argument that Mintoff wouldn’t agree with the cheap sale of passports. They should know better. It is exactly the kind of thing Mintoff would have done.
A man who sold Malta to Gaddafi in exchange for financial help when he screwed up over the closure of the British military base would sell his mother for a song and to hell with passports.

Hear hear.
Hear hear from me too. Labour NEVER deviated ONE INCH from Mintoffian doctrine.
Sant was a Mintoffian. His bluster and “traditur” accusations were just a distraction.
Muscat is Mintoffian. Labour will forever be the Monster that Mintoff Created.
There’s your Moloch, Mr Lowell.
It’s a good thing Valent mentioned Mintoff.
Listening to Jabba the Hutt speaking in Parliament this evening, I couldn’t help remembering how he had admitted that he was a close friend of Dom Mintoff, spending time with Malta’s own Scrooge at the Gharix.
In fact, the basis of Jabba’s argument was precisely like that of Mintoff in the Golden Years – that Malta should live off the easy money from other countries.
If Jabba really thinks that he is attracting foreign talent with this scheme, can he, or maybe Henley & Partners, tell us how many talented persons specifically from the EU they expect to apply for this scheme? And how many Americans? Or are they suggesting that there are no talented persons in the EU and the US?
In Parliament, Jabba sounded rather angry about bloggers, making repeated references to them (without any names) in negative terms. Of course he is upset about bloggers. Blogs like this one have been instrumental in exposing the deceit in the Citizenship for Cash scam which the Muscat government is desperately trying to put in place.
Mintoff was a firm exponent of “L’etat c’est moi”
Mintoff loved himself.
Therefore Mintoff loved the state of Malta. Q.E.D.
P.S. Excuse the “new” syllogism a la Labour movement.
Voila. Enfin.
Mintoff could not have sold Maltese passports because they were hardly worth anything in his day.
What Mintoff did instead was to make the Maltese passport an imitation of the Libyan one, complete with green cover, Arabic script and a map of the “White Sea”.
Well said, Valent.
I can’t understand either why PN MPs are mentioning Dom Mintoff. They should know better.
And if they think that by mentioning Mintoff they’re going to appeal to Laburisti, or gain some votes in the upcoming EP elections, then I might as well get used to the idea of Labour at the helm for at least another 15 years.
It’s the Golden Years all over again.
Mintoff provided for children allowances of the Golden Years children from the cash given to him by Gaddafi.
Now Muscat will be providing for the pension of those Golden Years children from the cash to be given to him by the successors of Mao Zedong.
