    News: Haitians demand $22B restitution from France

    http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...parations_dc_1

    The question that comes to mind is if this goes through aren't other countries going to demand restitution from countries that did them wrong? How far back in time does this go? Wouldn't the money (assuming France coughs up 22B) just be wasted on corruption?

      Please, I hope it does go through. The minute it does we all know Le Pen will be the next President.

          Romans stomped all over Europe for ages, maybe Italy should pay trillions in restitution to all the countries it dominated?

              You could give them a trillion dollars and the place would still be a shithole. You can't polish a turd.

                  Yeah. We demand restitution from Greece. You sold us bad grain 2,500 years ago. BASTARDS!

                          There's a saying... if a bucket is broken, regardless of the amount of water you pour in it, the water will still seep out.

                              They should demand restituion from Africa for selling the slaves to 'em in the first place! If it weren't for France they might not have any history at all & they would still be in the jungle waiting as lion food.

                                  They will fund the Arabs in their numerical invasion.
