Now here’s a story about fake watches with a bad ending!

Almost everyone knows how nice those extremely expensive watches from Vacheron Constantin, Blancpain, Girard-Perregaux, Parmigiani Fleurier, Omega, and others to Rolex are.  They decorate your arm nicely as “iced out gear or bling” jewelry.

So what do you do if you can’t afford to spend anywhere up to $1.5 million?

Simple, you look for the guy selling copies of them on the street, right.

The problem is that even counterfeit watches are made to look so much like the real thing that they even attract criminals like magnets.

A young man living in northern Greece found this out the hard way.  He was in an Internet café and while he was there two hoodlums spotted the bogus watch that he was wearing and mistook it for the real thing.  As soon as the victim departed the cafe, incognizant of the fact that he was being followed, he was soon attacked and killed for the fake watch on his arm.

What can be derived from this story is that:
You probably don't want to wear a fake watch or even fake jewelry anymore because criminal activity is at an all time high.
If you do wear it, then you had better be observant and keep an eye on who’s keep tabs on you!

While Greece attempts to eradicate the DNA of subversion that has become embedded in its system over a lifetime, the outlook is bleak as to how long it must endure while fighting an economic battle at the same time.

The United States of America is suffering both economically and psychologically from entering into multiple theaters of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, and is now contemplating the participation in a war against corruption.

The war against corruption is a degeneracy that ultimately has no end in sight because it is almost impossible to fight this kind opponent when the leaders of this war are actually the leadership of the country itself.

The U.S. Military Intelligence has seen the difficulties of eliminating Al Qaeda over the last decade, a war against corruption will drain its resources leaving the USA vulnerable to more aggression.
