Are you nuts, psychopath, or what?
I guess your father is German?
Ron: << Is everyone outside his 'clique' open to absurd broadsides like you just unleashed while the 'insiders' are protected? What is this, the SI version of the Balkans??? Do you always follow so closely Rick Harmon's coattails, Miljenko, and do you remind him (and yourself) at every opportunity of the incredible 'baying' you two do of your own pet stocks?>.
Miljenko: 9. <<… What is this, the SI version of the Balkans??? …>> Leave Balkan in peace, when you know ZERO about, you <deleted>! It was US President, and Secretary and Government who DID give Milosevic and Serbia Government GREEN LIGHT, MORAL and FINANCIL SUPPORT to do WHAT EVER IS NEEDED (in 1980 and 1990) to preserve status quo in Yug. So, WHERE IS BALKAN???>>
Miljenko: << When I informed online friends that my father-in-law past away last summer (because of the luck of medicine and medical service, local hospital in Croatia) he immediate send small contribution with intention to improve this condition. >>
Ron: << I identify with the medical maladies of close relatives - my 89 year-old father had bilateral pneumonia this summer. I spent 2 weeks at his house attending to bodily functions, having him at one point break down in tears in my arms from the humiliation of the circumstances (this from a man who escaped Nazi Germany and soon thereafter was a translator for the American Army in WWII Europe); this was indeed a riveting experience. >>
Miljenko: << 'I am very sad to hear about you father. My advice is not to judge German citizens for Nazi crime, as I do not judge American citizens for Balkan tragedy.' “It's unbelievably revealing.....as much for what you DID say as what you did NOT say.”>>
Do I have to write every word?
I am very sad to hear about your father … illness as well as what he encounter in Germany during WWII. He was brave and honest. Many didn’t. I heard many stories, first hand, who survive Nazi Conc. L. Story than hears on head can’t survive.
However, all German citizens can’t be blame for what Nazi (Torture and Crime) did, toward other nations as well their OWN citizens. I know story, first hand, about German solders that were fair and honest (as one can be in war situation) as well. [EOM]
