    So Leone Naka doesn't care if Americans, British, and Frenchmen die because they are less than human. They are less than human because they "didn't care" about the Croatians who were dying. Am I the only one who sees the circularity in this argument??? If I could draw arrows on this text I would.

    Also, my friend's dad got shot at while he was bombing the * out of the Serbian countryside during the Balkan Wars. Do you want him to die? (Moot point because the Iraqis got him first RIP)

    folks i think whats happening hear might have something to do with living in a war zone and watching your country and its people being slaughtered and the feelings and hatred you are left with whether it is for right or wrong.
    you just dont know how it can get you until it happens

    I know what that is. I support the idea of independent Croatia, and that was their goal, already from 1930. But their leader gave away the whole Dalmatia to Italy, the *. And when the war was over, escaped with all the gold. Gave a bad name to the movement and the people who fought for our independence.
    And yes, I believe 9/11 was an inside job.

    Proof.

    And, smokie, you can't dismiss his views as the result of the war his country went through. I can understand his feeling wounded by it, even hating the people who persecuted that war, but the French did not kill his people, neither did we nor the Americans. It just sounds like he is looking for someone to blame.

    And besides, he cannot expect the West to get involved automatically. Our governments will only get involved when their own interests are threatened or when an organization like the UN, EU or NATO calls for it.

    That is the problem. The * wanted us to go down because their interest was keeping Yugoslavia. They put embargo on us, to aid Milošević...instead of stopping the whole war. They appeared in 1999, by bombing Belgrade, as ˝the protectors of freedom˝. It's like indecisive, spoiled children, these countries. First they aid one side, then the other... That's what I'm sick of.

    Actually no, I got two people confused. :52: He was shot down in the first Gulf War making that impossible unless he could time travel. But I do know a couple of Helicopter pilots who were there, not that they particularly did much, they were mostly support-types.

    (Quiz) See which end of the political axis you lie on.

    This is basically an online quiz i found which helped me define my political views.

    The Political Compass - Test

    These are my results feel free to compare. Political Compass Printable Graph
    It also gives a close idea of where you beliefs lie in comparisson to many influential historical and current day figures.
