I can tell that you are not from the Balkans. If you have something factual to say about genocide that did, in fact, occur in “your own backyard,” then say it. But don’t make or pass along unsubstantiated allegations and hearsay that you have no way to verify.

You have let yourself become a sad example of the effects of mainstream media indoctrination. Once an entire ethnic group has been tried, convicted, and sentenced in the media, anybody who stands up to defend them is vilified.

In this era of political correctness, there unfortunately is a big pent-up demand for some ethnic group that everybody can hate without feeling guilty. It’s right out of 1984, the Serbs were picked for that unenviable role, and you went right ahead and drank the media’s “hatorade.” It’s time to throw it out and take a fresh look at whether or not there was any basis for those allegations.

Finally, there is no excuse for the vulgar phrase that you used to describe my concerns about the survival of my ancestral homeland and its people.

You are free to comment here again, but if you do, please keep your language clean. Commenters should have an opportunity to be heard, and we all value civil discussion and open debate. If I think someone is flagrantly wrong, I’ll say so. But I will not permit this blog to become a cesspool. Be advised that any vulgar phraseology in the future will most likely result in the entire comment being deleted.
