Yes, it's entirely possible that NYC and myself are simply less informed than the others. But to me, the story sounds preposterous on the face of it, obviously someone's disinformation campaign, intended for who-knows-what purpose?
But let me suggest this. The proof is easy to determine. The event will either happen as described or not. If it does happen as described, then NYC & myself are guilty only of being uninformed, and of refusing to believe an unverified story.
But if it does NOT happen as described, then some of our other posters are guilty of something more serious, imho. And that is gullibility at best, and at worst, overeagerness to believe a crock of nonsense that happens to fit their own warped political perspectives.
Of course this story is a joke.
But don’t expect certain Balkan apologists to accept that, they’re too wrapped up in their old paranoias / ethnic hatreds to ever see reality.
And I see monty is back to his insults again.
Some things never change.
I hope to God that it DOESN'T happen. Because if it does, many people are going to die -- that is what is at stake here, not "who wins" a silly FR argument.
Scott Taylor is not known for being a liar or an alarmist. In fact, I think the reason that Scott is whistle-blowing here is to PREVENT it from happening because the jig will up & the element of surprise will be gone. If this is the case, I wish him success.
No matter what happens, no one here is "guilty" of anything other than posting a printed article and having an opinion about it-- some informed, some not -- none with a crystal ball to accurately predict the precise future, especially when the act of revealing a plan in print may affect the viability of the plan itself.
