What were you talking about with respect to the message you were responding to, which was about Bosnia? Or was your "Really, OK until..." post in response to a different post? If so, which one?

Maybe you should repeat the question in case he forgot?

So why dont you think Bosnia was a US victory?

Because a plane crashed last week in Libya.

A better question would be, Why don't you think a military operation that invaded another country and drove to the center of their base of operation in 2 weeks would be seen as anything other than "Mission Accomplished!"?

You have avoided the question. Why?

So you post this instead of answering a question yourself. Ironic.

I looked back, and I have answered the only question you asked me, so I guess we could start another round of "what are you talking about" here.

Dude, I was talking specifically about Libya when I made the comment.

Not about Bosnia.

You asked how Bosnia was a victory, I answered, and you said "Really? OK until...". Your response made no sense as a reply to my post, which is why I asked what you were talking about, and later asked if you were responding to a different post, though there are no obvious candidates.

I wonder if we lost the Bosnian War again.

I don't know why you are spending so much time on this...

I was commenting about Libya, regardless of your assessment about Bosnia.

Let's see. Massacring 4,500 American servicemen on a war with no purpose - "Mission Accomplished" - is good. Resulting death of untold tens or one hundred thousand Iraqis was also good.

Meanwhile, Bosnia and Libya are about stopping massacres. Why did you approve of Mission Accomplished? And disparage Bosnia and Libya? Do you like massacres? Apparently.
