"I wonder what we will do when the Mexicans in Calif. and Texas demand their independence ?

We'll follow our convictions and let them go, just like we did with the Confederacy.

Does anyone really think that the Democrats will be any different or do any better ?

No.

And Serbia wonders why Kosovar's want their freedom! Genocide, personal attacks, and an animalistic approach to humanity at large, and they still wonder why Kosovar's want their freedom, and wish to further isolate themselves away from Serbia! Maybe it is time for the Serbian Government to grow up...then maybe their people will grow up!

". Well why then is The USA 2 faced ?What about Serbia ?"

It probably has something to do with Serbia's ethnic and religious ties with Russia and our "If your enemy has anything to do with Russia, you can count on us." policy that worked so brilliantly with our support of the Pol Pot Khmer Rouge/Royalist alliance in Cambodia and Reagan's "heroic Islamic freedom fighters", who dropped by to thank us personally on 9/11.
Both the United States and Russia keep claiming the cold war is over, but neither one of them often acts like that's true.

it would be nice to see some real jounalism, not just PC, on this topic. Gen. Clarke isn't president by a long shot, so why was he the first person I saw layout the position of our country on this. The issues here are very important and I think Americans like myself need real news people to dig and try to explain them. Weren't the Serbs our allies in two major wars? Will Kosovo become another Mujjahadim nation - help by us, only to betray us in the most profound ways? 2 million people seems like a city, not a nation - maybe another terrorist state spread all the way to Europe now? I don't know, but with the media and our gov. so hung up on not offending Muslims, no one seems to be looking at the hard questions.

Two questions:

I wonder what we will do when the Mexicans in Calif. and Texas demand their independence ?

Does anyone really think that the Democrats will be any different or do any better ?

I'm fairly certain that my son will see his second tour in Iraq, if he lives through this one. The Democrats are not going to stop the Iraq war, and upset Israeli foreign policy.

Regarding a 2 faced policy :Serbia and Turkey.and the US . The Kurds are simply fighting for independence as a majority ethnic group in that region of southern turkey and northern iraq. But the USA supports turkey invading northern iraq saying they have the right to protect their land and soverignty . Well why then is The USA 2 faced ?What about Serbia ? when it comes to Kossovo where the Serbs are protecting their soveriegnty regardless if the albanians are the majority in kossovo still it was part of Serbia and the USA gave its blessing to the Albanians for independence .Why then did the USA not give their blessing to the Kurds for independence instead they gave the green light to the turks to crack down on them .. If you are calling for democracy and freedom around the world lets be JUST for all, not for your own interests, turning a blind eye on others .The world sees this and that is why they are angry with america .
