    So like those Irish american who think they know everything about Ireland the IRA. Yeah I can agree to this post. Unless you have lived in the country of conflict, have amount of knowledge, or are directly from the country of interest your grand fathers living there matter little.

    And Korea, Yeah I know that.

    I don't think me being 1/4 slovak has to deal with me calling most serbians "scum". I was just answering your question. I call the "scum" because of what they did in the past and what they are doing now and the people are just letting it slide and/or supporting it.

    I really want to go to the balkans, mainly Zagreb, when this shitstorm calms down. Hopefully the solution is peaceful.

    It takes a long time to calm nationalist tensions. Even I was brought up a nationalist. Calling everybody "scum" isn't really helping to ease the solution.

    Who wants to go to a place when its peaceful, There is so much you can see and write about when there is war going on and you get a first hand experience of the average day life of the people. But as of know the situation in the Balkans is alot more peaceful then it was when it all started and most of the people who issued the orders to commit Bosnian ethic cleansing (I would claim Genocide however international court has not thus i have to say it was not) have been found, infact one of the Generals is standing trial for crimes against humanity

    Well I like going to places where I don't risk getting killed or shown on international TV. I just want to enjoy the peace and don't have to deal with people talking about the serbians, or bosniaks, or croatians, or any other damn conflict in that damn area.

    Going to any place of ethic clashes and former wars that are still in the minds of the people your going to get that. Heck go to the Congo and they will talk like well during Mobutu and well during the Rwanda civil wars. International television doesn't care about that stuff there more interested on what food a celebrity is eating or what chick a president is secretly fucking.

    True, but I just don't want to go when there is still a shitstorm going on. I've been swearing a lot since I've been posting tonight. I need to calm down.

    Are you sweating and hyperventilating? Do you want to re-enact the civil war and talk about baseball?

    That game is a farce. During that time period the Hagia Sophia would only have had one minaret.

    Historical anality FTW.

    The war ended in 1995(unless you count in Kosovo 1999) and Zagreb is relatively peaceful by now.
    You should also stop with the hatred and raging against the Serbian people.
