It is irresponsible to act like this. And imorale.

You're kidding right? Ethnic cleansing in Europe is a problem worthy of
every
nations best efforts and money, but religious and ethnic persecution in Asia
(Iraq) is absolutely fine?

NO! My statesments included these from the first posting on. This
includes Ruanda as much as Liberia, Indonesia (East Timor),
Zaire/Kongo, or any other place. Acting differently means to apply
double standards. And in fact, government on both sides of the large,
cold pond did apply double standards.

Where did I write to exclude these? Don´t read too much between the
lines. Too much guessing involved.

No, what was happening in Iraq was as tragic as the FRY, yet with the exception
of the UK, Poland and a few other eastern European nations Europe was
disinterested in helping and quite interested in preventing its termination.
Now that the force-on-force battles are over, the US asks for assistance and
western Europe (save the UK) again turns its back *yet* at the same time
demands US forces remain to help in the Balkans. Its ludicrous.
