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.

He's over here on occasion.

Of course, the down side to this is that countries might be less willing to undertake "peace keeping" roles. I have no idea what the Rules of Engagement were for those Dutch soldiers but I assume they weren't permitted to gun down people at will.

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!
Is RS any less combative over there?

Probably stewing his brain with Skunk I'd guess. I wonder how he feels about the Dutch government's change of heart on drugs?

He's as unhappy with Holland as I am with the republicans.

The problem is, they're correct when they think that the average voter is too stupid to realize that they are the ones prolonging the budget crisis.
