"There's nothing special about the U.S. that says we couldn't have ethnic cleansing and violence here like in Bosnia or Rwanda."

except that Americans intermarry...thirty percent of Hispanics intermarry, thirty percent of Asians intermarry, and ten percent of "blacks" intermarry (the pc term black ignores the West Indian and African blacks, who are less racially oriented.).

Bosnians didn't intermarry, and Rwandans didn't mix in their "tribes". I was told by a Bosnian that the mayor of Dubrovnic came from the north end of the island, which was originally populated by refugees from the Roman colony...the implication being that they still remembered the slavic/roman wars of 1200 years ago...

So the lack of teaching history in our schools has an advantage.

Besides, most "white" americans don't consider their ethnic background as "white", but where their ancestors came from...
