Sableye Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 Every time I watch Fifa I go to sleep. Probably cause I was forced to play soccer and don't care for it. Honestly I don't care who wins.I never played Soccer ever in my life. But that will change tomorrow.ITALIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"User" Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 post- means after, as in before in time during WWII, they were CommuiOr am I confusing Nazism with Communism?I know what post means, but they were never communism countries. Communism originated in what is now known as Russia. In fact, during World War 2 Hitler opposed the entire concept of communism and Germany was bitter enemies with the USSR. Fascism I believe originated in Italy with Mussolini. As far as Japan goes I'm not sure what form of government they had during World War 2 but it was a dictatorship of some kind I'm sure. Nazism is a far right winged ideology, while communism is on the far left. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DRL Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Nazism is a far right winged ideology, while communism is on the far left. That is why Hitler considered the USSR to be'their true enemies'.As far as Japan goes I'm not sure what form of government they had during World War 2 but it was a dictatorship of some kind I'm sure. If I recall correctly, the head of the State wasthe Emperor, but the head of goverment and ministersevery now and then were replaced by the military (in fact,most of them were military-appointed too).I would call it "Imperial Dictatorship", since it takesconcepts from both systems. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 That is why Hitler considered the USSR to be'their true enemies'.After Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa that became known to all. Hitler had no intention of living up to ANY peace treaty with the Soviets.

Steve Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'm not much of a soccer fan, I'm mostly "meh, it's just a sport". I really don't have a favorite team (not even my home country) but I found something ironic, Mexico and Argentina on Round of 16 again, just like the last world cup, I'd rather have Argentina winning since they have what it takes to deal with the nasty Brazil, if they both make it to the finals, Mexico, not so sure, assuming they break the curse and move forward, it's going to be a mostly, impossible road, Mexico hasn't scored that many winnings against any of the other teams we would have to face. It's also a shame to find France and Italy kicking the bucked out so soon, they are normally finalists . But anyways, as long as Brazil doesn't win, I'm ok :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italy and France... He,he, remember Zidan! [...]I'd rather have Argentina winning since they have what it takes to deal with the nasty Brazil,[...]But anyways, as long as Brazil doesn't win, I'm ok 99% of the people in my country will thank youfor saying that. Me too. As I have said already,politically we are much friends, but on football...They like to cheat (you now, fake faults, ect.) too muchsometimes. :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
