>It was an argument for defining Balkan behavior as fundamentally racist in nature. Period. I believe what is below is called a "straw man."

Rwanda's Tutsi and Hutus, Turkey's treatment of Kurds (and illegal invasion and occupationn of Cypurs for over 25 years despite a UN Resolution condemning it!), Chinese treatment of Tibetans, Indonesian treatment of E. Timorese...you see it is a tough world out there and if US wants to take the higher moral ground and "save lives" it must be applied CONSISTENTLY...otherwise, it is called as they see it overthere...hypocrisy and double standards.

Now what's up with the "straw man" comment?
