Charles,

I agree. It is simplistic to blame WWI on just the
Habsburgs. It was more like over eager imperialists
blasting away for fun and profit. In some ways, the
development of nuclear weapons is a good thing for the
human race. Everyone knows how ugly another war like
that would be so the nuclear card keeps the peace.

Over on the Kosovo front, it appears that my prediction
of "killing fields" is coming true. There is a power
struggle within the KLA for control. Bodies of mid-
level KLA commanders are showing up all over the place.
It appears that Slobo was right. The KLA is nothing more
than a bunch of narco-terrorists but now they have state
power. They probably will end up like Afghanistan or
Iran in the long run.
