| #6 I'll agree that the MSM portrays conflicts as morality tales and picks the good guys and the bad guys, based on little more than ignorant predjudice. It's the Holloywoodization of news. |

| #5 I'm pretty familiar with the history of the Balkans, since I'm half Slovenian. The idea that the Serbs are innocents who are unjustly being picked on is laughable. Sure, they did fight with the mainly Muslim Bosnians and Albanians. But they also were trying to do ethnic cleansing against Roman Catholic Croatians, a small Hungarian minority, and would have done it against the Slovenians had the Croatians allowed them to march across their territory. None of those nationalities are Muslim, so where is the "defense" of Europe from religious predation that they are claiming? Look, they started WW I. Pardon the rest of the world for not allowing them to start WW III. |

| #4 Yes things really went to shit after Tito checked out, but painting a swatika on the Croats or the Bosians won't make the Serbs crimes any less than attempted genicide. The Croats were not on any mercy mission when they launched operation "Storm", they were on a land grab pure and simple. Also the treatment of the Bosian muslims under the Croats wasn't much better than under the Serbs. I loathe Billy Jeff but making peace in the Balkans was a good thing. |

| #3 I was in Germany when the Serbs were methodically destroying Split and other places in Croatia, and during the siege of Sarajevo. My Croatian neighbor repeatedly drove over to Bosnia with supplies, and brought back refugee cousins. There are no innocents in the region, at least at the political level -- as far as I could see they were all bad. But the "traditional allies" really made things worse by insisting on a win for their guy, instead of looking at what was best for everyone: France and Russia for Serbia, Germany for Croatia. Truthfully, a lot of problems could have been avoided just by agreeing to break up peacefully, the way Czechoslovakia did. But too many on all sides like the killing and the torture. |

| #2 This is worth the read if you don't understand or are unfamiliar with the history of the Balkans. Again how did BlowJob and his stooge Wesley Clark manage to get everything assbackward and upside down ? Oh yeah, forgot we're dealing with Billy Boy. Didn't know one damn thing about anything going on there. We should have been 100% and the f**king Euros 200% behind the Serbs who were trying to survive another Muzzie rampage. Instead, we did everything to enable them. |

| #1 hard to be pro-Serb, except when compared to their enemies |
