This whole cause and effect thing escapes you, doesn't it.
as for cause and effect.....perhaps the Lisbon Agreement may ring a bell ?
Dear Holplite,

Your comments are perfect example what happens when zeal is not followed by basic education.
Get some courses at Community college. It is cheaper than veery expensive help.
or, if reading is too hard for you, here is crash course in pictures:
This photograph was seized from Saudi Arabian fighters captured in Crni Vrh near Teslic, Bosnia. A Muslim solder displays the severed head of Blagoje Blagojevic, a Serb from the village of Jasenovo near Teslic.
Oh c'mon, you're full of sh#t on that one, Hoplite - who illegally seceded first? Was it the Serbs who decided to forcefully tear apart the country first? Of course, shame on those evil Serbs for not promptly destroying all their churches and cultural landmarks and meekly giving way to Mr Islamic Manifesto Izetbegovic. How dare they fight back, and - gasp - even get the upper hand. Surely they all deserve to have their heads chopped off by the noble mujadeen, right?
The Serbs wanted to prevent Mohammadens taking over their land — in hindsight we can see theSerbs were right.
