    how would Belarus be a threat for Sweden?
    Not a threat, but a nuisance to EU in general. Do a Google-search on "lukashenko", that would be a start.

    If US goverment would've had any backbone or morals to their claimed ethics, they would've put Belarus in the Axis of Evil. Dictators who misuse their power should be dealt with.

        I've been under the impression that Lukashenko insists to have Belarus as a part of Russia, but Putin doesn't take let them in, because he mostly disagrees with his nationalist talk behind the public's eye.

        But that's my biased opinion, which based on their past actions.

          Putin wouldn't have to bother with that crap if he just annexed Belarus.

          The reason must be he wants to make a show off military annexing Belarus.

          Increases BB a lot more though.

            Conscription is wrong.

              Peaceful conscription should go... but conscription during war time, when it is absolutely needed, isn't wrong, IMO.

              Though women should be at the front lines as much as men. Equality, dammit

                    Conscription never! If an invasion can't get your people to the front lines voluntarily, then the country isn't worth saving. Conscription is always wrong. Period.

                    As for war time, well with the war on drugs, terrorism, etc. the US always seems to be at wartime. No excuses. If King George can't raise a volunteer army, then he doesn't get his war.

                      Stopping evil dictators! Yeah right! I tell you what. The minute King George stands up to the Chinese and liberates Tibet, he's got my vote. Seriously. If Dubya believed his rhetoric, he'll liberate Tibet - despite the amount of business we do with China. At least impose sanctions!

                        Templar, be quiet.. your attitude let alone faulty rhetoric is just nonsense.

                        Let people have their opininons. You can challenge them but not engage in a smear campaign against others. You have done this to me and ran like a dog with its tail between its legs.

                          So Fez rears his 70s head again! What the hell are you talking about , "smear campaign"? Are you pro-conscription and pro-Chinese now? Just put me back in your ignore file before I intellectually spank you again.

                            No I am neither, I am just saying let Imran has his opinions without insulting him...

                            You intellectually spank me? I defeated you in that debate so badly it wasn't even funny.

                            70s Head?

                              Why insult him - he's one of the people around here with something intelligent to say. I disagree with him on conscription. Hardly an insult

                              70s Head?

                                Maybe what I mean came out wrong. But your rhetoric is very harsh on him.

                                Fez is cute okay... I have had a crush on him for ages.. there.. that is why I have him as my avatar.
