I like that the pictures are taken by government employees instead of the graffiti writers themselves nor by fans of graffiti. Because of that the pictured artworks look much less nice, and the images can capture what 99% of the artworks ac

If I wanted to permanently erode trust within the alliance, which by the way just lost 859 European soldiers into America's idiotic Afghanistan adventure, this is how I'd do it.

There are already 10 times more US soldiers present on Greenland's Pittufik Space Base. Question is, to whom this fact is more embarrasing: EU politicians or the US admin?
