Hoek:
I would not mind your ignorance, but your accompanying arrogance is a bit much. I'll just point out 3 things from your idiotic ramblings:
"The EU convention on human rights is not recognized as international law for countries outside the EU, and Turkey is not part of the EU."
I was talking about the ECHR, wasn't I ? Which is part of the legal framework of the council of europe, not the EU.
"I notice your baseline figure was '48, not '45"
Because the Marshall Plan started in 1948 ?
"You think Europe was equal to the United States? That is such a laugh. The U.S. economy was half of the entire world economy immediately following the war, so don't even try it."
Look! You got one fact right. Just that it is completely irrelevant on the issue of quantity of the Marshall plan funds compared to western european economies. Around 1950 US GDP was maybe twice that of western europe. Where did you get the idea I said Europe was economically equal to the US after WWII ? You have a serious reading comprehension problem.
I'd also be waiting for you to address your obvious lack of knowledge about EU legislation, but I doubt you can contribute anything useful there.
