The U.S./NATO on the Wrong Side Again: Iran/Serbian Contrast

Posted on 06/26/2009 6:51:49 PM PDT by Amerisrael

At no time did the Serbs ever have a nuclear weapons program.

In fact, the only nuclear reactor Serbia ever had was built when Serbia was part of Yugoslavia. It was shut down in 1984 and dismantled in 2002.

That being the case, at no time did Serbs ever pose a dangerous nuclear weapons threat to another country.

At no time was Serbia ever an exporter of terrorism around the world.

Let alone call for the use of nuclear weapons to "wipe another country off the map".--as Iranian Ayatollah Rasfanjani has done. And also Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Nevertheless:

In August of 1995 the Clinton U.S. government and NATO launched a massive bombing campaign against the Bosnian Serbs:

You really don’t know anything about what transpired in the Balkans during the 1990’s, do you.

Hop: Here we go again. Such wisdom and truth coming from the front pages of Zadarski List. We all know your Croatian story.

Your argument is too general.

For example, I could essentially make the same argument you did in the context of the US invasion of Grenada, 1983 (Operation Urgent Fury).

Right, OK, I don’t know much (any thing) about Bill’s directed action in Bosnia. I couldn’t make a single shred of sense of it, as with most things Bill. Sotra figured he wanted to do for The Bos as Jimmy had done for the Shaw’s Iran.

I know a bit about Serbs, however. They are, in aggregate a class act. Tough, savvy, and intellectually agile. Were it not for the advantage of finding Serb Park just down (up) the river from TMI, I wouldn’t even know that.

What do You know? Will you let the rest of us us know ?

Al Qaeda was born in Bosnia in 1988/89. The rest is smoke, mirrors, flashlights and bad political theater.

His Hopeless Dhimmitude (AKA Hoplite) only come alive when the keyword "Bosnia" appears on FR, because he once spent 5 minutes there. Yet, based on those 5 minutes in Bosnia, he will pontificate for hours on how Bosnian Islamists were "innocent victims of Serb aggression".

So good luck with that invitation to Hoplite to "share". I'll try not to snore.

Tough, savvy, and intellectually agile.

Until a communist party apparatchik turned tin-pot dictator goes and lights the fuse under their simmering sense of victimization and leads them headlong back into their local version of a race war.

Then they get stupid and downright nasty, and as no amount of talking will suffice, have to be bombed to remind them that they can't perpetrate crimes against their neighbors with impunity.

Need I remind you who brought back genocide to Europe after a 50 year hiatus?

You'd be better served trying not to remind everybody what a silly woman you are with such idiotic and fact-free posts.

On second thought, keep on keeping on. You're a continuing reminder of the vast reservoir of human stupidity which Milosevic exploited to wreck Serbia, and which has helped to drive all of Serbia's immediate neighbors into NATO to avoid further unwanted attentions from the neighborhood lunatic.

Boka, “smoke, mirrors, flashlights and bad political theater” is ok bla bla, and etc. The word hyperbole comes to mind.

You seem to assume that what you know is obvious to all, it isn’t. A lot of us are troubled about this kluge, and have only bits and pieces.

I’m not much on sharing, much rather ring you out than have you snore. What do You know? Will you let the rest of us know?

Not really. For example, consider Romania.

The dynamics between Romania's interests and Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, and Moldova played a more important role for this country to join NATO - not Serbia.

"You know? Will you let the rest of us know?"

Will be happy to let you know and my sincere apologies if you thought that dis was for you, it was not. I should not have been glib.

But I am unfortunately busy for most of this weekend and won't be able to get back to FR much until Monday. Will post as I can, as this is a complicated subject and will likely take a lot of time.

And you're nothing but a bitter loser.

Fret not - you've got tons of company, and the rest of your life to cultivate your pathetic sense of victimhood.

My Nazi friend, you think you have accomplished so much and the rest of your pathetic life you will lie to yourself about being a winner when your soul has already been claimed by eternal darkness. The same forces that have claimed those of your forefathers years ago.

Hoplite failed to qualify as a contestant for the “Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader” game show.
