Yet more dispatches from the other Malta

Luciano Busuttil calls his house Il Sogno, and somebody else calls his Mein Kampf.
U imbaghad jghidu li huma proud to be Maltese u jinsistu li jitkellmu bil-Malti bl-interpreters u t-translators.
X’konfuzjoni tal-mohh, msieken (and that’s quite apart from the politico-cultural pointers).
If Luciano lived where I do (Dar Rihana), he would have renamed it La Casa del Mirto (ghax hafa izjed posh u aspirational, kif jahseb hu), and the other jerk would have called it Eagle’s Nest, or however Hitler knew it in German.

I don’t think the jerk is a Hitler admirer. I suppose he thinks it means “My tent” (kamp, in Maltese).
In actual fact it means “My struggle” or “My battle”.
What makes you think so? On the contrary, I am sure that the idiot is a Hitler/Nazi admirer.
I suppose you are right after all. So many idiots in Malta think he was a hero.
And it is KEmpf, not KAmpf. But I agree that the twit thinks it is a smart way of writing It-Tinda Tieghi.
On the other hand, it might be an allegory to the owner’s struggle with kontijiet tad-dawl u ilma, prezz tal-petlor, and other similar and severe hardships that people here in Malta have to contend with to keep those villel, swimmin puls, villeggaturi, arkondixin, and oversized expensive cars going.
Sorry sir, it is Kampf not Kempf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mein_Kampf….and I know German.
Absolutely sickening.
Judging by the number of bars on the doorlight, this is one paranoiac schizoid. Hopefully, no one else lives in that place.
He probably even has a bunker in there. And a … ok, let me stop there.
Here’s a dispatch from the alter world: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN_1mF-3JTI
Note the genius of mutual indebtedness and the sagacity of the central banking cartel. But where does the money come from? No shortage there, aye?
Kev’s back, playing the village idiot. Is it raining in Brussels again?
The sun has been shining all day, La Redoute, but your comment ushered in a breezy grey cloud which I quickly blew away.
I hear the anthill has become a dust bowl. Is that true?
Maybe Sharon bought him a dishwasher?
I wouldn’t know, Kev. I thought you did your own gardening.
I see you’re beating Purdie at creativity, ciccio. But you’ll never beat La Redoute for insipidity.
Kevvy is reaching again, attempting to be witty. ‘A breezy grey cloud’? And he ‘blew it away’? Did he bend over and aim?
I see you’re off “the dishes” for once, Purdie, ciccio has taken over on that front. Pity you could only turn up with a toilet joke.
Cleaning toilets now, Kevvy?
Yes, very nice. Now have a look at this.

On whose account is Nigel Farage talking, a bunch of speculators waiting for a devalued drachma to buy all available coastline in Corfu, Rhodes and their tourist industry?
He reminds of someone with a soft spot for Bulgaria and St.Petersburgh who tried to enter politics.
He also forgets to mention that Golden Dawn won’t let it happen. I’m sorry Kev, but when the questions are asked this man is out of his depth.
I think you haven’t a clue of what Farage is talking about, Jozef. But never mind, you’ll grow up to be a good serf one day.
Oh well, it’s onto gratuitious name calling then.
It’s quite ironic that a British MEP pushes for Greece exiting the euro, but can’t explain what it is his mates in the city expect to do with their swaps once the Euro is duped into handing over it’s pound of flesh.
He obviously thinks the Greeks are stupid enough to consider pegging the drachma to the Euro and that investment and innovation, as he calls them, will be a benevolent democratic force.
Now that’s a double whammy, I suppose the counterconspiracy should be as smart.
I think you should listen to what he said, Jozef. You might learn something.
Whose house is that?

There is a Stalin Garage in St. Venera.
OMG. Now whoever lives there should stick a sign across the top of the metal gate declaring that “Arbeit macht frei,” for that authentic feel.
Why not, what’s wrong in it? Yes indeed, work do set you free.
I think it’s more likely to be “Oh Scheiße, was habe ich getan?” after they get wind of this page. Mosta, I believe.
I have seen a car with the number plate being KAIEDA.
Can you tell us if we have a Mintoffjan or a Socjalist Skwallidu living in Mein Kampf?
[Daphne – I don’t know whose house it is. I only have this photograph.]
Does it really matter?
To all you useless Labour politicians: where is your political programme? What is it made of?
Will you guarantee freedom of expression, the press, human rights etc? What about unemployment which will invariably increase should you be elected?
Will you have Malta return to the labour corps of the Mintoffian era?
Will you resort to nationalisation again should the economic scenario deteriorate?
Why is the media not putting pressure on these useless Labour idiots?
Malta should know why a political party claiming to be an alternative government does not have a political programme yet.

The idiot must have thought it was posh German for “My Nest” or “Il-Bejta Tieghi”.
Without associating the phrase ‘mein kampf’, meaning ‘my struggle’, with Hitler and Nazi sentiment, it would be just another phrase in German.
However, why would you name your house My Struggle? And why would you choose to express it in the German language out of all the languages in the world?
My conclusion is, that the people who live in that house know perfectly well what Mein Kampf stands for. They know that it’s not just any other ‘inspirational’ phrase in German. And they probably know that Mein Kampf is the one phrase that is associated with Nazi ideology.
So, my question is, why would one name one’s home Mein Kampf unless one believes in Nazi ideology?
