the powers that be in Spain got fed up with Merkel and the DB and attacked full force unilaterally publishing the stress tests of german banks...

the spanish intelligentsia and propaganda machinery is insisting that german banks are dead-man walking... that Santander is so fine...

Merkel was forced to say yes to all the European countries against the will of the german banking community...

How much real power the german banks have? Can they get the head of Merkel?

Do they need her there for the next bail out? or will they be pissed off by the betrayal? What can and would they do?

Is really merkel doomed or has still power?

And, is she useful if she fails her purpose of getting to control the UE finances and monetary policies?

A pleasure
