> Well, I still don't know where you're claiming I'm misunderstanding your position. I call you hypocritical for claiming to be anti-war in one case, but pro-war in another.
Aggression against a sovereign country is one war, handling an internal terrorist problem in the name of humanity by a defendsive alliance is another! Case closed, I win<g>
> You either are, or aren't, supportive of using force to resolve certain global problems, regardless of whether that action is the result of continual diplomatic failures or unprovoked aggression.
I do not want Nato to be making selective choices of which global problems are to be solved.
> And you didn't respond to anything in particular that I presented, but just brushed it all off as illogical. I guess that means you're still thinking it over and trying to find the holes in my logic. (I'm sure there are several, so you might want to keep searching).
No, not really. After doing it for several posts I have realized I have better things to do with my time...this thread is too time consuming already. As I tried to contest Mr. Barry's posts I am doing to you now<g>
> Madeline vs Mrs. M?? My god man.. now we're really talking important!!! So if we're talking a scale of ugliness they're both off the scale. If you're referring to arrogance and diplomatic ineptness, Madeline and Mrs. Moby both rank equally on the former, and Madeline far excels in the latter (Mrs. M certainly cannot be considered politically inept, her being the power behind Milo).
We at least agree here!
> Would you care to comment on the reasons that Russia and China might have for effectively permitting Milosevic to continue his aggressions??
Ron, you don't get it...Kosovo is central to the Serbs psyche...Why would you think they will endure over two months of bombing and losing so many of their civilians??? The bombing has given them a great excuse to permanently alter the ethnic makeup of Kosovo for ever probably...Remember all of the refugees were in their homes BEFORE bombing started. Now the bombing has created a grave humanitarian problem, radicalized the Serbs even more, has pretty much made the KLA bandits the main representative of the Kosovars to a great expense of world stability and future undesirable results in the ballot box in Russia and the return of Anti American feelings in Bejing (all due to a wrong map<LOL>)....What an ugly mess, thank you NATO! |
