thanks, I'll go more educated to bed tonight than I woke up

never heard of the Pan-European Union before, but wait...
wikipedia: "unity of a Christian Europe, free of "nihilism, atheism and immoral consumerism"

sorry, can only agree with the last point
but as you know the Austrians had some bad experiences in engaging in a conflict in the balkans, Franz-Ferdinand ans this...

Regarding old Otto: I am glad however that you folks did chose to govern yourselves and didn't make a decision for a Kaiser who got his legitimation from strange women lying in ponds distributing swords

This started a series of wars that would eventually draw in my country and the rest of NATO plus the Soviets/Russians.

Today I doubt anyone on the street of my city could locate Slovenia, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia or Kosovo on a map.

I'm part Croatian and i go there almost every year, my moms side of the family is from Croatia (Križevci area). We had 1 fighting against the JNA when all that crap was going on down there, and my grandfather spoke out against the JNA on TV here, which just resulted in a ton of death threats towards him and the rest of my family, bombing, shooting, stabbing, the whole package of threats, nothing ever happened.

Betonov I am assumming your in the thick of this. If so my heart goes out to you and yours.

The closest to war in the streets where I live is riots.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

Try to stay safe.

edit: My heart goes out to all impacted by this.
