But, bluntly and simplistically, if all that you predict had happened, it would be their problem and not ours.

Carl Sagan once likened the nuclear arms race to two people standing knee-deep in gasoline and one of them has 1,000 matches and the other has 1,500.

Your thesis seems to be that we were right to attempt to knock the matches out of the Serb's hands because of the potential effect that they could have on their neighbors and their neighbor's matches.

I just think we'd be much better off getting our asses out of the gasoline.
