Germans want to tax compensation settlements and pensions agreed in 2005
Belgians deported to Nazi Germany in World War II to work as slaves for the Third Reich have now received tax demands from Berlin.
Belgium's finance minister Didier Reynders has vowed to confront Germany over the 'morally indefensible' tax demands which have been arriving in the mailboxes of elderly war survivors over the past few weeks.
'It is shocking that people who during World War II were forced to work by the Nazis have now received tax demands from the authorities related to the compensation eventually paid for that work,' he said.
Germany seems poised to take over Europe for the third time in a century. Even the French, who once collaborated heartfully in the Eurozone project now want to be independent again. Who can blame them after the bloodless coups in Italy and Greece, and the bullying of the UK, Ireland and now Belgium.

Roll, Panzers, roll. Sounds like a good fight song.:)
