For those who didn't follow our 'debates' he was ranting against the US refusing to sign the accord permitting US forces to be tried at the International Criminal Court.
I argued that that stance was more honourable than his country's that did sign it then did nothing when its troops stood aside from protecting people in their care without firing a shot!
Took them long enough as well.

Granted, but if they had not given into threats the Serbs would have had but two choices, back off or open fire.
In the first instant, no problem, in the second the Dutch force would have every legal right to defend themselves. They did nothing!

Yeah they do. They want it so much they buy into the bread and circuses. Idiocracy, here we come!
