I just don't have the time to study every book written about every subject on earth, and determine which author is writing propaganda and which is writing truthfully and honestly, before making up my mind.

Not much, but not much less than what every other average person knows about the subject.

I'm not suggesting you need to read every book, but following what has happened on this thread in regards to Srebrenica, Trnopolje, and what's going to happen as far as Racak should be a guide as far as providing an outline of which side is the biggest perpetrator of attempts to deceive the public in matters Balkan.

An alternate way to look at things is to find the biggest pushers of a certain perspective and see what their other positions are on subjects of interest - for instance, do you think that Living Marxism conforms to the ideology of a website such as FR?

If not, is it simply because different people have different opinions and that's ok, or is it because one side isn't being honest in their presentation of the issues and can only support their worldview through deceit?

I'm not Serbian and I don't even know any Serbs. The whole NATO thing in the balkans seemed strange enough to me during the mid 90s and when the situation in Kosovo came up in 98 I made it my business to go out on the internet and find out everything I could about it. The basic question was, even if everything we were reading was true and Serbs really were the ultimate assholes of the entire world, was it worth it? Was it worth risking the new relationship with Russia over?

What I found it from any number of sources was horrific. The west has been fed a steady diet of BS from the NATO and Clinton spin machines over a period of ten or twelve years, and American policies in the Balkans have much of the world viewing us as animals at present. In particular, nobody can figure out why we should worry about AlQuaeda after aiding them and their subsidiaries such as the KLA in taking over major sections of the Balkans.
