How stupid was it for the US to ally themselves with the Mujehedin against a moderate and secular Afghan government simply because that government had strong Soviet ties? They didnt, they allied with the Mjuahedding against a soviet puppet government which overthrew he moderate secular government. Keith |

... From: (Denyav) Date: 9/14/2004 2:25 PM Central Daylight Time Message-id: 1945.1 (= Jan 1945) [U. S. A.] An ignition device for implosion completed by Luis W. Alvarez. http://www.ask.ne.jp/~hankaku/english/np7y.html That was some 4 months before the U-234 episode. Actually Dr.Alvares completed not one but Three (3) ignitor designs,but none of them were succesful.Thats the reason why I say "He was unable to produce even one succesful ignitor design in 18 months" The last one that delivered to test only hours before was fourth design. Poor showing of Alvares' first three designs was very well known and documented fact. So everbody,including many top Manhattan Projecters were surprised by the excellent showing of this fourth design in actual test. After the war ,Alvares always dodged questions about this problem his answer was always "Well.I cleaned up some wires",. Well its of course not so simple like Dr.Alvarez made us to believe. According to Harlow Russ,this fourth design was totally different from the previous three and included two radical new components and according to Russ new design these new design was completed "just in time" for trinity test which explains why the new bomb components arrived to the test site only hours before actual test. Alvares' first three designs which your link refers to were so bad that almost nobody within Manhattan Project believe in success of of Plutonium bomb test so they concentrated on how to reclaim precious Plutonium from the test site after failed test. But to the surprise of the all Manhattan Projecters yield of test was four times better than their most optimistic estimates. Why? Because instead of Dr.Alvarez' junk,superior German technology,or more precisely the product of universal and eccentric genius von Ardenne, was at the work in Trinity test site. Yet you still refuse to cite verifyable source. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Go easy on him! It was a guy in a pub, right? And guys in pubs never lie... John |

They didnt, they allied with the Mjuahedding against a
soviet puppet government which overthrew he moderate secular government. Names and terms like "Zbigniew Brzezenski" and "The Afghan Trap" reminds you something? In The Great Game first the game area are selected then proxies,not other way around. |

The behaviour of the US during the Yugoslave/Bosnian/Kosovo issues was highly pro-islamic, So you think the Serbs had a right to just kill and expell all the muslims in Kosovo? You are sick. If that is your history of "using islamic based insurgence as a wedge," you are also laughably pathetic. Look mr. before YOU write ANYTHING about FRY, get to learn some facts who has been living in Kosovo and which nationality/religion they are/were. Just to give you a tip: -Kosovo is INTEGRAL PART of Serbia (not Serbia and Montenegro) as much as some county in the State of New York. That's the bloody Constitution of Serbia states since 1945. It is not a "republic". It has as much right to split as much as you have to split your municipality from your country. It was simply "envisaged" as a part where overall ethnic minorities are in majority! Go blame Tito for that! - "Kosovars" do not exist, they are ALBANIANS of CHATOLIC as well as of MUSLIM nationality (Chatolic in lesser percent). The ratio Albanians:Serbs was roughly 80:20% BEFORE 1999 (not 1991!), now it is 96-97 percent ALBANIANS, 2-3 percent SERBS and 1 percent others (including NATO). Since you probably heard about Kosovo in 1999 or earliest in 1991, you should know that former Yugoslavia was uncusesfully fighting Albanian nationalism and separatism in Kosovo since 1980 when Tito died. The product of such dissapointment was a Sebian nationalism, and Milosevic appeared like Hitler appeared after the Crisis in 1933. Then other "Great fathers of nation" appeared after him. Then all the hell broke loose in entire former Yu. - Milosevic is a WAR CRIMINAL that should be condemned because he, Tudjman and Alija f***d up Croatia (10-11% Serbs 1991, now around 3%-"replaced" by Croatian refugees from Bosnia, thanks to Karadjordjevo and a handkerchif map) and B&H that was, before the war, shuffled with Muslims, Croats and Serbs at equal rate. Those three "leaders" above literally polarized the country(ies, Croatia and B&H) to Serbian, Croatian and Muslim part despite claims of EU and SFOR or NATO. The "Migty Trio" created such national movements in B&H (and Croatia) unseen since the times of Otoman Empire. And this happened in the heart of Europe in the late 20 Century. NATO was "sooo kind" and allowed ethnic cleansing of SERBS, not ALBANIANS on Kosovo AFTER they came in Kosovo. Milosevic was still in power when they arrived because he is/was not interested in Serbian people but to have POWER. When Yugoslav Army left Kosovo, qute soon so did the Serbs. If you do not believe, go to Pristina today and try to utter a word in Serbian and you will be lucky not to get beaten. Up to 1999, you could hear an Albanian talk in Albanian in BELGRADE on BELGRADE TELEVISION that he is from Kosovo and that he is in a "foreign country". Say that in Pristina as a Serb and you will get KILLED. Any NATO/UN/EU "low level" foreign worker that mingles with people in Kosovo knows this. The gross misunderstanding and tackling of the "Balkan stuff" of Europe towards Balkans since Austro-Hungarian Empire, up 'till European Community and USA now, has ALWAYS resulted not just in killed Muslims, but Croats and Serbs too. Where were you when a Milosevic's pion Babic was forcing 150,000+ Croats out from self-proclaimed "Republic of Serbian Krayina" (part of Croatia) in 1991-95? Where were you when Tudjman forced out around 350,000+ Serbs in August 1995 from entire Croatia and "imported" Croat from B&H? Where were you when those Croats were forced to get out of Bosnia from, let's say, Kakanj or Prozor or Tuzla (from Muslims) and to move to Croatia? Where were you when those Muslims were forced out from Banja Luka by Serbs who fled before Muslims in Sarajevo? Where were you when the Serbs were forced out of Drvar and 99% Serbian-populated Drvar is now 99% Croat-refugees populated Drvar? Do you know the numbers of Serbian, Cratian, Muslim and Albanian people in mass graves "produced" by all three/four nationalities and who shot or slauthered them? It is a Vicious Circle. Mister, you should have been here. It is not called "Balkanian Cauldron" for nothing or because after some dish. We, the ordinary people that suffered consequences from this war (being bashed, killed, tortured, displaced, hungry, dirty...) do not CARE who started it anymore. This was not WW2, this was a CIVIL WAR. Now go and explain Fmr Yu history 1991-1999 and beyond to somebody who does not live here. In Balkans. Nele NULLA ROSA SINE SPINA |

I have - read the following http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita...troduction.htm Keith Another Anglo misinformation organization.. If you really want to learn what "Afghan Trap" meant and how it was set you must read what the main architect of "The Afgan Trap" ,Zbigniew Brzezesinki told about events in Afghanistan. Anyone who wants to learn the truth about this issue must check out the interview with Brzezinski appeared in french journal Le Nouvel Observateur in 98. Apparently non-Anglo top US strategists are not very fond of twisting facts. |
