WILL THE NEXT WAR ERUPT IN THE BALKANS?

Forget the Middle East and Korea:
The Balkans are on the boil again

Serbs have gotten off the wrong foot with the U.S., for 25 years, now.  That is "la dommage", but what to do - "The life is tough, and than we die". However, the vast diversity of opinions, on their side, is interesting to follow. Here is the one .....  Justin Raimondo (born Dennis Raimondo; November 18, 1951) is an American author and the editorial director of Antiwar.com. He describes himself as a "conservative-paleo-libertarian."  Major ideas and recurring themes. Raimondo argued in a 2003 Antiwar.com column that Israel exerts a dominant force in the formulation of American foreign policy. Raimondo also believes the United States was led into World War II through lies by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and that the U.S. deliberately provoked a war with Japan through economic sanctions. Raimondo's views have been compared by Christopher Hitchens to those of Charles Lindbergh, whom Raimondo describes as an "American hero sprung from the heartland."[ Raimondo has also written that Israeli intelligence operating in the U.S. had advance knowledge of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Raimondo believes the government should refrain from adopting laws that would prohibit discrimination against homosexuals. He also is against the legal recognition of same-sex marriage and instead favors marriage privatization, both mocking the idea that gays should adopt a heterosexual model of sexual and emotional relationships, and noting that as a libertarian he opposes "State incursion into such private matters." Raimondo has debated the issue of same-sex marriage with journalist Jonathan Rauch, who supports it. He also has written that after years of persecution by the state, LGBT rights activists seek to "use the battering ram of government power" to actively intervene on behalf of homosexuals.
