<< Russia may very well lose everything here with it's vain struggle to prop up the Milosovic government. >>

I agree. Russia is a bad joke. It is a beggar state that has problems supplying toilet paper to it's people. Russian troops rush into Kosovo and then have to plead with NATO for water. <g>

Sending more finanical aid to Russia is worse than flushing it down the toilet. I'd rather see the aid go into make Serbia's surrounding enemies stronger, including Kosovo.

I also don't want to see NATO nations spend one nickel in Serbia until Serbia pays reparations to Kosovo. Sanctions should continue against Serbia until they assist in the rebuilding of Kosovo.

Serbia destroyed Kosovo, they should be forced to fix it!

If this is what your US history class teaches you, then I sincerely feel sorry for you.

*OT* But it's a fact..the US freed Europe and Russia in WWII

... and saved the Earth from the alien invasion in ID4.

Jeff,

Can you back that up with some facts?

I am no historian either, but I know that the greatest battles of WWII - the Stalingrad Battle and the Battle of Kursk, when the Germans were defeated and suffered tremendous losses - took place WAY before the D-Day...
