Hoplite,
I see that you agree, this is good. You agree that this period was a black mark in our history that may not be told. The interesting part is that most Americans have no clue about what is going on in the Balkans. It's like the blind men trying to describe the elephant. It actually started in 1948 for us and has continued to present day. A lot of little turns and strategy renovations but, a signficant SNAFU since then.
Anyway, you don't do comparisons very well. David Irving is a person that can't make his mind up and keeps changing sides. You will find that I have been consistent in my posts and effort......
Second, I don't look for dividends for me. It has absolutely nothing to do with what I can receive or benefit from. Absolutely Zero benefits.....this is where you and I part ways. You post for benefits or agendas that you have for some group, political party, persons, even though you know what is right and wrong. There is a basic truth that you have to turn your back on and justify or lie to yourself about in order to post the BS.
No one is keeping me down, as the efforts being made are by others having a lot more influence than I can dream of. However, I also realize that the forces behind Kosovo's bid for independence has very deep pockets. Anyone supporting "forces" that can get a war criminals pardoned and turned into political leaders and even a president of a people, plus....a pardon for being a war criminal has a LOT of juice. This is quite the understatement.....
Anyway, from my little seat, I will ALWAYS fight the power and more if I had the opportunity to write, speak, or become an activist. My support for the current administration's fight against terrorism is complete and supportive as I know the evil that lurks in the Koran and it's followers. However, the Balkans is part of that, and that is where my support ends. It's a confusing policy we have in the Balkans and it is being handled poorly. Innocent Albanians and Serbs have been murdered due to this misplaced support.
No, no likeness here of David Irving. You must have had one too many when you wrote this one.
If you stick to your guns by adhering to the policy of truth, it makes your arguement that much easier as you don't work as hard covering up your lies. Life is easier, but very frustrating at times due to the hoplites of this world.
If sticking to your guns/truth means being ostricized, so be it. Truth has unlimited rounds. As we've been saying, 'when in doubt, unload your mag'.
And I see that you don't recognize sarcasm when you see it.
Which, all things considered, isn't much of a surprise.
