Wow - they've almost got as much junk as Saddam had, and have proven just as combat effective in their recent outings.

Color me unimpressed.

Saddam fought Iran's million-man army to a standstill and conquered Kuwait. Likewise, Serbia defeated its Balkan enemies recently.

That Serbia and Iraq fell to U.S. super-power might is hardly a surprise, but the U.S. isn't going to be fighting Serbia this time around.

Moreover, Serbia is capable of projecting guerilla power further than was Iraq...and is more capable of a domestic IED campaign than are today's Iraqi insurgents.

Not that any of this matters to you, for some bizarre reason. You seem anxious for the next Balkan war...a very, very odd position to take for an "American."
