"Recognizing Kosovo will bring nothing but trouble. No one can be denied the right to self-determination, but only within the bounds of common sense," he was quoted as saying at the time."
As always, Lech Walesa succinctly puts into perspective what should have been on all of these state government head's minds. Including George Bush. What was he thinking when he compounded Bill Clinton's mistakes?

No ****!!!!! You mean, like somebody done figured it out or something like that??

"appeasement of muslims"
If that's the case, we better get our women to all wear hajabs and everyone convert to Islam, then pass sharia law. That's what its going to take to appease the radical muslims.

If it’s payback for Kosovo, why are the Russians not restricting their invasion to South Ossetia?
To: All
I mean, freedom and independence are wonderful, provided you do it on your own property. What we have with Kosovo is a case of slow-motion land theft, which isn’t exactly the same thing.
To: Old Teufel Hunden
Sadly, that is so. The Crusades never ended...........

Lech wasn’t the only person who thought we were idiots to back Kosovoan independence. It was a thumb in Russia’s eye for one thing. It was totally unnecessary.

Exactly... That was just a lame excuse... All of South Ossetia has less than 100,000 folks... Kosovo is 2 million...
If it's payback, why is the sKum Russian govt deep into the heart of Georgia?

Just imagine that Georgia entered NATo in Bucharest summit some weeks ago?
Amd Sakashvilli AS NATO country- president attacked Russian troops.
Just how could Bush convince Putin that US are not behind deaths of Russian soldiers?
And how would Russians react?

I never understood the Kosovo thing. Never. Not for one minute. It never made any sense.
But maybe the muzzies blackmailed Krinton and Blair - said liberate Kosovo or else? Krinton and Blair did this. And then maybe *that’s* what all the stuffing of documents into pants had to do with during the 9/11 inquiry.
Krinton gets “Peace in our Time” and the “Peace Dividend”, the muzzies get a toehold in the soft underbelly of Europe, aka the Balkans, and we get attacked on 9/11 after Krinton leaves office. And then when the 9/11 “commission” starts asking question Sandy Burgler and Jamie Gore-Lick are around to make sure none of this sees the light of day.
Makes about as much sense as anything else.

"It was a thumb in Russias eye for one thing."
I agree. I thought it was so stupid for Bush to compound Clinton's idiocy from 1999. I'm all for putting a thumb in Russia's eye, but there has to be a legitimate reason. A bunch of Moslems that are now going to be a welfare state of the UN is not a reason. Kosovo is about the size of L.A. Is that a reason to get Russia pissed at us?? Does Kosovo actually produce anything? Probably Al Quada members now.

When it comes to the Clintons, trying to figure out what caused them to do things is an exercise in futility. It doesn’t have to make sense. It probably doesn’t. That doesn’t mean they get a free pass. It just means that’s how bad their rule is.
I just don’t understand why Bush recognized Kosovoan independence right away. We should expect Bush’s moves to make sense. This sure didn’t.

It is payback, its payback for building a US base in Kosovo and encroaching on Russia's backyard. Basically they are making a statement to the US that it won't put up with US meddling anymore.
Bush will not do one thing to help Georgia, the Russians are making the US look impotent.

"South Ossetia, payback for Kosovo" And for advancing the boundaries of NATO into former Warsaw pact nations and especially into former Soviet Republics. From the Russian point of view, the west gave the Slavs (Serbs) the finger when taking Kosovo from them. They continue to Give the Russians the finger by inviting former Soviet Republics into NATO. Western globalists want Russia's resources. This is the Bush-Clinton-Bush legacy. They are trading the hopes of former Soviet Republics to be free of the Bear for access to cheap resources. Russia wants these for itself.
So Bush tells Putie to stop it. Putie says F'k you. Now who wants to send their kids to fight for the interests of wealthy, greedy globalists? Not I. Let the European globalists send their kids to fight.
