Kosovo - What would you do without freedom?

[Xavier]

Why am I not surprised that you only mentioned the American embassy? Are Croatia, Turkey and Bosnia not important enough for you to care about or did you just do the typical American thing of manipulating information to make it seem like your country is the only one that matters?

Serbian television reported that the Croatian Embassy had also been attacked and the state news agency said the Bosnian and Turkish Embassies were also targeted.

Maybe its because, you know, I'm an American so I naturally commented on the information that most directly affected my country? I don't know, its not like the article I linked specifically mentioned the other embassies being attacked. Why am I not surprised that you're just a tool, are you for fucking real?

[Shuemue]

Didn't you read the article? America has been promoting Kosovo's independence for longer and louder than most.

@Xavier: GG with the name calling, that's always the best way to handle a debate.

A bit late for you to take the high road after calling me an ignorant, truth-manipulating American when I linked an article with the full story.

i read that protesters were movign towards Britain and another country's consulates (the other's name escapes me atm), but were driven back quickly by riot police. And yea, Croatia's embassy was damaged as well. Was right next door to the American embassy.

[Exoduso]

That Yugoslavia area is getting ridiculous... too many countries.

I asked you a question, I didn't call you names.

But hey, you'll just shout louder than me and then ban me, so whatever.

Don't play coy and accuse Xavier of name-calling when your opening statement is nothing short of baiting. If you're going to take a shot, take a shot and get the discussion going, but lets not pretend its something that it wasn't.

I think what really starts to make me nervous is that the ethnic tensions and infighting in this region had a good deal to do with WWI -- lets not start in on this again, hmm?

[Kazen]

Yes, because admins always ban people for having a different opinion than them.

way to miss the point

You didn't ask me a question, you made an accusation.

Now you're copping out.

Glad i'm not the only one who thought that. Though i would think that starting world wars now a days would be a little more difficult.

[Neosutra]

Imagine the lulz if whoever's in charge of the Mormons had himself a revelation and declared Utah was seceding.

I think we fought a war or something about states trying to secede and how legal it is.

I think the winner determines legality.

Cause Utah would own the other 49 states amirte?

And either way, its Utah.. Let them have it, but dont let them back into the US.

Utah can just become the lolreligion state where all the mormons and scientologist move to mate with each other and de-evolve into primates.

"Are Croatia, Turkey and Bosnia not important enough for you to care about or did you just do the typical American thing of manipulating information to make it seem like your country is the only one that matters?"

How the fuck is that anything but a question?

Go back to quips about bombing shit.

What about wars where the winner was charged with war crimes? Sometimes you have to do unethical things to win.

...assuming there are any. Perhaps all wars fought thus far have had winners that committed no war crimes to achieve victory.

Though i would think that starting world wars now a days would be a little more difficult.

Yeah, it's harder to piss people off now compared to back then, and there's less alliances nowadays, so few nations would be pulled into the conflict and thus avoid making it a world war.

There are questions, and there are accusations. When you supply your own answer to a question, its no longer simply a question, its an accusation.

Beyond that, I included a link to the full story, which mentioned the other embassies.

I'm not entirely sure why you're in such a fucking bad mood but you came in looking for a fight, and like I said, its a little too late for you to try and take the high road.

----------------------------------------------------

As far as another world war, its so hard to fathom because of the sheer apocalyptic world it would enevitably create.

[Shuemue]

Yeah, you couldn't have just said, "I'm American, damn right I don't give a fuck about those countries." which would have totally answered my question. Instead you called me a tool. That's your choice, but pretty much proves me right.

[Guyverarmor]

I read about this earlier when I woke up to check email.... wonder if it will turn out like the incident in the mid-90's with Willie

P.S. F5 for more of the xavier/shue discussion :elmer:

omg an accusation within a question?!!? PREPOSTEROUS WHAT SORT OF LINGUAL STRUCTURE ARE WE OPERATING ON, I MEAN FUCK

edit: shuemue are you just tired or are you being a stereotypical dipshit anti-american who can't wait to make arguments based off of hyperbole?

btw it's just a question im not making an accusation so you cant get mad.

[Deejay]

He called you a tool because you were being a prick about it, lol.

It's like walking up to an overweight person and going: "Hey are you a lard-ass because you love to eat or is there any other special reason?"

I just have a hard time understanding how us Americans presumably only care about ourselves, but as soon as we try to fix someone else's problems we're called nosey do-gooders.

Except that person has started a thread about fat issues and is making jokes about being able to eat more than anyone else (the bombing quips)
