<< Actually, one can deny that. Hitler and SM are VERY different. >> Oh, I don't think so. Both have rat's blood in their veins. << Hitler was interested in world conquest; Milosovic "merely" wants to keep control of one country, >> That is an assumption. After all, Hitler just wanted a little piece of Chechoslovakia. << If all Albanians voluntarily left "his" country, if the KLA all left, if Yugoslavia was populated entirely by serbs and there were no rebel military force, SM would be completely satisfied. >> This is debatable. The question is, would this mad man, when corrupted by his own power, seek to increase the size of Greater Serbia, at the expense of other countries, such as Romania, or would he then turn on his own people? << Until the war broke out, Hitler was at all times the aggressor, never a defender. >> And, before NATO went to the rescue of the Kosovos, Slob was mostly an agressor. << ... he wants "his" country for Slavs and seems quite content to let others live elsewhere. >> This is total conjecture. I consider Slob Milosevic a rabid, brutal, power hungry criminal. If these strong words of mine are true, then he is very unpredictable, as was the case with his brutal treatment of the Kosovo Albanians. << Hitler's final solution was the death of all jews. If SM had really wanted to kill all Albanians, he could have done a much more effective job of it. >> What is more effective than forcing the Kosovos from their homes and allowing them to starve to death, freeze to death, die of diseases without necessary medications, and selective executions and rapes? << Yes, SM is vicious. Yes, his actions violate all standards of decency. >> Ahhhhh. We agree on something. << (So, btw, do ours.) >> Speak for yourself. << Whether he is more of a dictator than Clinton or Blair is open to discussion. >> Clinton or Blair dictators? We have free press, we have a President that has minority power, we have a President that is subject to the laws of this country, and was actually impeached. You have this one wrong. << I understand that he (Milosovic) was democratically elected. >> He was. But, his term ran out and he was not able to run for President of Serbia again. So, he declared himself President of Yugoslavia and kept his power. He is illegally in office and has ruthless control of the country. They do not have a free press, especially since Milosevic's henchmen assassinated the owner of the only opposition press. << But the second coming of Hitler he is NOT, however much CNN may try to paint him as black as it can. >> He compares well with Hitler. I think the term "Second coming of Hitler" fits Milosevic very well. But, CNN doesn't have to paint this bastard with any kind of color. Milosevic's record of tyranny and murder speaks for itself.
