Microsoft office in greece attacked with bomb

"This was the work of people frustrated that they still don't know the price or launch date of Microsoft's new Surface tablet."

I hope that's meant to be some sort of strange attempt at a joke...not that it seems appropriate.

Yes why microsoft I could seen Greeks geting upset at Mercenees, Porsche or Audi Dealers.

Could be some hard left Terorist group reactivating but an od choice of target even so.

> (Germany) seems to be doing much to force the Greeks into performing hideous acts of financial restraint, after the Greek economy imploded like Microsoft Vista. The more insensitive might therefore wonder whether German companies might have been more logical targets.

I thought Germany is bailing Greece out?

[presidentender]

But there are strings attached, which somehow constitutes "force."

[RyanMcGreal]

Germany is forcing Greece to accept punitive austerity measures that will throw more people out of work, worsen its deficit/debt situation and further depress its economy.

Why Germany is insisting on fiscal policies that will actually frustrate its own efforts to bail out struggling Euro economies is anyone's guess.
