Robert, res- <<<GO NATA! They flew 600 bombing raids over the last 24 hours. They've also dropped their first 500 pound bomb.>>> I bet you're real proud of the bombs which incinerated two civilian convoy's killing hundreds of innocent people and the bomb which killed 20 other civilians at the transmition center. <<It's easier to sit in your comfortable home and be indifferent about the suffering of others.>> No, it's much easier to pretend you are doing something courageous by sending other American's young people to die in a civil war where we have NO strategic interests at all. Simply to appease your guilt over a nasty war, and not having the courage of your convictions to go yourself. If this is the criteria we have for war, then according to your moral certitude we should be sending our kids to Africa, Tibbet, Vietnam, North Korea and a whole lot of other places around the globe. I'm glad most Americans don't want to play world policemen like you and sacrifice the greatest gift we have. Namely, our children's lives. <<<Let's join up together. You might have a problem joining up with Slob Milosevic's Military Police while you are here in the US. <g> Laugh all you want Robert, you haven't a clue how foolish a statement that really is. Man........ you are really pissed. Was it something I said? Pissed? no, I'm sorry if my point cut so close to the truth it upset you. I don't want the US and NATO to get involved in a mountainous, guerilla war. Our options are limited. NATO military seems to feel that they can win this war from the air. I hope that they are correct, don't you? I want our troops to come home tomorrow and let the European countries which are free and wealthy grow up and stop depending on mommy America and her children to do their continents dirty work. It's been 50 years since WWII. Don't you think it's about time they accepted responsibility for their own continent? I can imagine we would get a lot of support from them if Mexico had an internal civil war. Shoot, most of them wouldn't even give us verbal support to end the Panamanian dictator's rule. Strategic support, or intelligence support yes. Our children's lives or billions of dollars from hard working American taxpayers, NO. In a little over 10 years, Slob Milosevic has changed a strong, economically sound Yugoslavia into a ruined splintered country, because of his Fascist racial policies. There will never be peace in the Balkans as long as Slob and his government thugs remain in power. Slob Molosivich is only a part of the problem that has been devastating Yugoslovia on and off for nearly 500 years. Getting rid of him will not create the utopian society you seem to believe existed before his rein of terror. Michael
