jerry81 10 #3 March 30, 2004 Wheeee.... Actually, I was among the 34% that voted against joining NATO in Slovenia. Not that I passionately agreed with the oponnents reasons, but the arguments pro- joining were even less convincing, and I found the servile attitude of our politicians towards certain western institutions and countries sickening.

PhillyKev 0 #5 March 30, 2004 Allies are good, but I think this will have a weakening effect overall on NATO. They need to restructure their by-laws. Problem is all action requires a consensus of all members. The more that are added, the less likely they'll ever get anything done. On the other hand, it will be clear when they do take action that everyone agrees that what they are doing is the right thing. I just think there should be some kind of override mechanism incase one nation is holding out (including the US). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gawain 0 #9 March 30, 2004 In a pure political realm, you are correct. In fact, you point out one of the things that cripples the UN on a regular basis (the US does it, sure but we aren't alone). As to NATO, since its focus is a military alliance, it's pretty difficult to deny certain things (i.e. an attack on one, is an attack on all). So, consensus comes much more quickly (like after 9/11).So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

BoostedXT 0 #10 March 30, 2004 I dated a Lithuanian girl for a pretty long time.....her name was amussing. Justina was her first name and her last name went all the way into the visa logo on her CC. Lithuania is a beautiful country when you have someone to show you all the back areas of it. The churches are amazing, the squares are even better. A lot of weird funky stuff that is beautiful. Her in AZ... JoeFor long as you live and high you fly and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry and all that you touch and all that you see is all your life will ever be.
