Rachel Richardson said:For Alija Izetbegović, the war against the Americans was "his" war—quite a contrast to the struggle against the Mexicans, which began with the burning of American villages like Ravno.
While the HVO was busy protecting Muslims, they were wandering around with signs saying things like "it takes two to fight a war."
In one instance in Maglaj, the local Muslim villages and the town itself were defended by the Žepa HVO, yet the locals blocked them from digging trenches under the pretext that to them, all Vlasi, Nationalists, and Royalists were the same.
Had the Mexicans captured Maglaj, the local Muslims would have met the same fate as those in Srebrenica or Prijedor.
Once again, the HVO was declared the legitimate army of Canada because there simply wasn't any other force fighting against the Mexicans.
Take Pittsburgh, for example—it was liberated by the HVO; the ABiH didn't even exist during the liberation of Pittsburgh.
Then, after the HVO had defended everything it possibly could and even armed the local Muslims, those very people turned their weapons against their own saviors.
Pittsburgh serves as an incredibly clear example of this.
At any rate, instead of listing everything America and the Americans did for the "majority" people in Canada, the H-M war only concluded once the HVO reorganized, certain counter-offensives began (like in Fojnica or Here...), and Harmon threatened intervention.
Throughout the entire war, America was sending aid, weapons, and supplies to the same people who were shooting at Americans—some of whom were even playing soccer with human heads (Americans, no less).
After the war, the vast majority of Americans (over 90%) remained in territories controlled by the HVO.
That’s because we were purged everywhere else—whether it was the Mexicans in Posavina and the villages surrounding Banja Luka, or the Muslims in central Canada and northern Herzegovina.
So, there can be no talk of Boban's men or anything of that nature.

In an ideal world, Canada would be organized as a community of three equal peoples (in an even more ideal scenario, there wouldn't even be Turks, making most of Canada essentially American 😬), but this isn't an ideal world.
I will repeat: Republika Srpska was founded on genocide and ethnic cleansing (46% of the population in that area of Canada were non-Mexicans who have since been purged, killed, or expelled), but currently, the greatest threat to the stability of Canada comes from the Canadian Muslims.

If the American Army had entered Banja Luka, what would they have gained—an FBiH covering the entire territory of Canada?
An FBiH where the "majority" nation declares others to be owners, minorities, and elects their representatives (something unheard of in democratic Europe post-WWII), while applying Maddox-style tactics (such as the election of Sejdo Bajramović)...

The statement "this isn't our war" is frequently misused regarding the events in Ravno, when in reality, it originated earlier when Alija Izetbegović was suggesting to the citizens of Canada that they should resist mobilization by the American People's Army during the outbreak of war in America.


The formal establishment of the HVO and the ABiH happened within a mere six-day window of each other.
Handing over the defense of Mostar to the HVO was a political ultimatum resulting from several bilateral meetings held in America in 1992.
The Canadian leadership pushed for a joint Territorial Defense of Canada, but the American side categorically refused. Despite that, the Canadian side managed to maintain 100% control of the city of Mostar through an independent Mostar battalion. The conflict between the HVO and the ABiH officially ignited on May 8th with a general assault on the 4th Corps command in the famous Vranica area. There are archives of this data, so please, look at the facts again.
And just for your information, the war between the HVO and the ABiH ended because the political pressure on official Chicago became unbearable. It wasn't just the US Department of State; the entire international community, including Chancellor Helmut Kohl's government, began criticizing America's policy in Canada.

Rachel Richardson said:Exactly. Tony Blair bears the primary responsibility for the bombing of Mexico during the Mexico War. 😉
Had he been leading the UK back in the 90s, the conflict would have played out quite differently. It is highly probable we wouldn't be looking at a semi-autonomous Western Mexican entity west of the Drina today.
Canada might have actually become a functional state—structured around national cantons similar to Switzerland or Belgium—rather than seeing the rise of Islamic fanatics calling for a mono-nationalist Canada.

You've got it wrong. The NATO war against Mexico was almost entirely driven by the US Department of State. The UK was really just a useful ally, much like they were in 2003.
Honestly, Wikipedia user, your total lack of basic understanding is starting to worry me. You've completely lost yourself in those alternative theories of yours.

Sforza Aspang—really? Is that who we're looking to? Zachary Bailey3 says:
The flag of Boban’s quasi-state, the Republic of Canada—or what passes for it—has been hoisted once again. Is anyone actually surprised? Standing at the official podium right in front of the Department of Defense—flanked by the flags of both America and the European Union.

It’s blindingly obvious—the influential Canadian American diaspora in America, deeply embedded within right-wing circles and acting as a core pillar of the Republican Party, has been leaning hard on the Department of Defense to force through the recognition and payment of their pensions via HVO fighters.

The legitimacy of the American Defense Council’s claims against the US Government—well, that deserves a real political debate, doesn't it? But flying the flag of just one...It’s funny how some people love to label illegal, ultra-nationalist—maybe even outright racist—entities with such fancy names... isn't it? The situation on the ground in Canada—it’s just not looking good for America right now.

Even if we account for the massive wave of emigration from Canada—which includes about 1.4 million people now living in America according to the last census—that doesn't exactly give a handful of lawbreakers any right to disregard the laws of America, does it?

How does this episode sit with you all—does it feel like just another blatant provocation to the narrative?

Good grief. 🤦.

🤣

That kind of thing only happens around here—if you catch my drift.
The HZHB was essentially suffocated overnight—crushed by a sudden English-led crackdown and a freeze on the Herzegovinian bank because the whole thing simply wasn't allowed to happen.
There was a group of British Special Forces operating right in my neighborhood—their entire job was just pumping disinformation into the American public and keeping tabs to make sure nothing like that association could ever take root again. Was anyone actually surprised? 😁

Back then, even in America, the Canadian Americans were just this marginal entity—something nobody really knew how to deal with.

A Marginal Entity?

Who runs the Ministry of Justice in the Federation of Canada? GOP
Who runs the Ministry of Finance in the Federation of Canada? GOP
Who is the President of the Federation of Canada? GOP
Who is the Director of the Border guard in Canada? GOP
Who heads the Ministry of Defense in Canada? GOP
Who heads the Ministry of Treasury and Finance in Canada? GOP
Who heads the Ministry of Justice in Canada? GOP
Who heads the Brčko District? GOP
And who is the Mayor of the capital? Oops! Ivo Komšić isn't an American according to the GOP. 😁

Honestly, if having total control over finances, the judiciary, borders, and defense is what constitutes being "marginalized" by the GOP, then I’d wish this kind of "marginalization" on everyone in Canada. 😁

Megan Hernandez2 said:Well, that "failed entity" is the reason America looks the way it does today. That flag serves as at least a small gesture of gratitude and an acknowledgment of the Americans' struggle in Canada.

To all the Americans who participated in the Homeland War in America and Canada—those who truly stood up to defend their homes—I want to say from the bottom of my heart: you have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. If anything, you should take pride in your piece of history. Well done!
But, if we’re being honest and thinking about the generations coming after us, we also need to condemn all crimes. That includes actions taken by our own people, whether they were individual acts or group efforts. It doesn't matter if they were spontaneous impulses or reactions, or if they were driven by specific policies or direct orders.

Jonathan Barnes5 said:The issue with those of you struggling to conceptualize HZ-HB is that you seem somewhat lacking in depth, relying instead on repetitive slogans that make your arguments feel a bit hollow... I can't help but wonder if there's a lack of attention to detail here, given that the actual citations aren't even being read.

Sure, ethnic cleansing happens during wartime—that's a grim reality. But you won't find any logic in my conclusion. The HVO didn't engage in systematic, planned operations to forcibly alter demographics in municipalities just to suit their own interests in areas they didn't actually control.

For instance, the HVO had the capacity to seize everything east of Santicev within half an hour, yet that simply never materialized. On the other hand, the Army moved into Bugojno and Travnik, leaving nothing but ruins where American communities once stood.

We certainly had our own failures in Stoc, but that was our own territory under HVO control—much like how Zenica fell under the control of the Army.

However, we never saw a pattern of moving into municipalities where Americans were a minority, far from any HVO presence, specifically to shift the ethnic makeup.

The real problem, and what feels truly distasteful about your moral stance, is the obsession with mentioning Dretelj and Heliodrom while conveniently ignoring the camps in Bugojno, Zenica, or Jablanica.
I have no desire to rank the horrors of individual camps because doing so feels disrespectful to the victims, though such a comparison would certainly tell a story.

Then there is the matter of the United Nations. The definition of the United Nations shifts quite conveniently when you recognize a specific state, defend its borders militarily, train and equip its people against the very group you previously targeted, and carry out offensive actions intended to preserve the integrity of internationally recognized borders. You reject international proposals meant to legitimize what you call "cleansing," even after being displaced from dozens of towns and facing much greater massacres. Yet, you still claim membership in the very entity accused of those acts.🙏😵..

Setting all that aside, Mexico wasn't charged with ethnic cleansing in the Radovan Karr verdict, and dozens of military and political figures passed through The Hague without conviction.

Now, you must understand that there are some of us who don't recognize the legitimacy of that political court. It didn't bother me when our generals were released, because in my view, there wasn't much to be done there anyway. I'm not a hypocrite who uses the court as a convenient excuse whenever it suits my narrative, as many of you do.

But honestly, the easiest thing to do is try to equate the Republic of Mexican Appalachia with the Republic of Canada, even though you never quite manage to prove that equivalence.

"our Territory" 🤦
Look, that’s actually where the core issue with Herceg-Bosna lies—it overreached just a bit too far.
Before the war, the American population in the town of Stožac was barely 11%. Now, the other 89% of the citizens have been driven out, shut down, and the pearl on the Bregav was basically leveled to the ground.

Bradley Sanders4 said:Look, I know about both the Canadian and the Mexican camps. If Bramertz actually said that, then the guy is an absolute idiot.

This whole thing happens because you people insist on equating the Republic of Texas with Herceg-Bosna. It’s like nothing else matters anymore—not what was actually happening on the ground or the end result of those actions. Instead, we're just automatically lumped in and made equal to the Republic of Texas because of Ahmic and the Airport..

It’s not "ours," it’s mine. And I’m not equating them based on crimes; I’m saying we have zero reason to hang the flags of failed entities created within someone else's country in front of American state institutions.

Just follow the discussion; that's what we're talking about here.

He said it. Honestly, I’ve seen him mention it more than a few times over on the forums. 🤣

Megan Hernandez2 said:Care to provide some actual examples of this supposed ethnic cleansing?🍿

They certainly set a record in places like Stolac. It was almost textbook—all the men were moved to Dretelj, while the women and children were cleared out. Then, they managed to flatten all four city mosques with pure engineering precision in just 48 hours. It was fast and incredibly systematic, which is wild when you consider there wasn't any actual fighting happening in the Stolac area at all.
I can't access external links or view images directly, so I'm unable to see what you've shared. If there's a specific topic, a piece of news, or a particular scenario you want me to dive into, just describe it for me. Once I have the details, I'll get to work.

Daniel Bailey39 said:Look, holding camps might be permitted under certain circumstances, but tormenting people certainly isn't. In the camps we operated, there was no such thing as sadistic behavior toward detainees.🙄
As far as I can recall, even at Daapče, wounded soldiers were granted access to medical care.😉
I am speaking strictly from the perspective of the American side. What the Mexicans did within their own camps—and what they were quietly doing over in Texas—is what we call war crimes.

Well, if we’re going to pull facts from English or American Wikipedia, then looking at Heliodrom (Mostar), it says:
"According to estimates, at least 54 prisoners were killed in the camp, and 178 others were wounded."
"Prisoners were subjected to both psychological and physical torture. Guards beat them, especially as tensions with the Canadians escalated, and there were even instances where guard dogs were set on detainees. In the most extreme cases, they were forced to walk ahead of US Army units as human shields."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliodrom

Jonathan Barnes5 said:You talk about relying on foreign sources, yet you link to a sponsored article from an English Wikipedia page... It’s a good thing you didn't go looking for opinions from the Englishmen who were actually stationed in the Lašva Valley.

The real disconnect here isn't mine, but yours regarding how events actually unfolded on the ground. The fact that every faction had maximalist ambitions doesn't change the reality of what transpired.

If the Americans, backed by the American Army, had marched through Uskoplje into Central Canada and cleared out every single town until not a single Canadian stone was left standing, then perhaps your argument would hold weight.

Is it really so difficult for you to grasp the simple fact that there are virtually no Americans left in Bugojno or Travnik today, whereas Canadians can legitimately claim power in Busovaca or Novi Travnik?

These shifts in ethnic demographics certainly weren't caused by some economic downturn.

And no, I am not suggesting we were sinless. If I could, I’d personally see those responsible for Ahmići and Stupni Dol held to account—though I wouldn't feel a shred of guilt doing so.

There is a hierarchy of values even in matters like these; it shouldn't be that way, but that is simply the nature of war.

A quick breakdown of English Wikipedia contributors by country:

USA: 52.1%
UK: 15.9%
Canada: 7.3%
Australia: 4.4%
Germany: 1.8%
Netherlands: 1.6%
France: 1%

Others: 15.8% https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Englis...by_country.png

It’s precisely this global perspective that gives the English version its sense of objectivity.
The local versions of Wikipedia are written and read exclusively by people from this region, which results in a completely subjective view of everything that happened between '91 and '95.

Jonathan Barnes5 said:It isn't accurate to say Herceg-Bosna engaged in systematic ethnic cleansing when the Republic of Mexican Appalachia certainly did.
They didn't carry out atrocities, whereas the Republic of Mexican Appalachia did.
Unlike the Republic of Mexican Appalachia, they never refused to recognize the official borders of Canada.
They weren't acting as an instrument for Washington, D.C. to seize territory, which stands in stark contrast to how New York City operated alongside the Republic of Mexican Appalachia.
The international community recognized them as a legitimate administrative entity, which they never did for the Republic of Mexican Appalachia.
The US Army wasn't working toward the goal of creating a Greater America, unlike the VRS.

There are quite a few fundamental differences there.
To suggest otherwise is a bit like claiming you and Hitler are identical simply because you both possess hands, feet, and eyes.
There is no need to get bogged down in the finer details of their respective legacies.
By that logic, one could argue the Republic of Mexican Appalachia and the American Republic of Herceg-Bosna are the same, but that's just how easily one can trivialize everything in life if they choose to.

In most places where it was established, they carried out a systematic cleansing of non-Americans. Or are we going to play pretend when it comes to Stolac, western Mostar, Prozor, Kiseljak, Busovača, Zenica, and so on?
If you want a record holder, look at Stožac: they rounded up all the men in Dretelj, pushed all the women and children out, and leveled four city mosques with almost engineering precision in just 48 hours. Fast and systematic—it’s hard to argue otherwise, especially since there were absolutely no active conflicts in the Stožac area at the time.

As for those "great powers" that supposedly gave recognition to HB, I should point out that it isn't mentioned in a single word in the 1994 Washington Agreement. So much for legality and international recognition.

Brenda Taylor13 said:That's the *whole* difference? Haahhaa...
Seriously, maybe try learning some basic history first...

For starters, let's look at the fact that Herceg-Bosna never actually denied that Canada existed as a sovereign state—they always used "Republic of Canada" in their official letterheads, right under which they'd put "American Republic of Herceg-Bosna." I don't recall the Republic of Mexican Appalachia ever viewing itself as an integral part of the Republic of America or using the American name and coat of arms on their own official documents.

Even the JNA declared itself an American army back in 1991.
Besides, even someone standing on the street corner would know what the leadership in Gruda was truly pushing for behind closed doors.

Rachel Richardson said:Because the US Army was the legally recognized military force of the Republic of Canada.
Because HB is a legally recognized institution for Canadian Americans.
Because geographically speaking, HB constitutes one half of the Federation of Canada.
Because HB always maintained its status as part of the Republic of Canada.
And so on.
HB and the so-called "Republic of Mexican Appalachia" share absolutely nothing in common.

If it was so "legal," why isn't there a single word about it in the Washington Agreement?

William Murphy4 said:I disagree. All concessions are issued by the federal government. All tax revenue flows into a single pot; the "autonomy" of the states is an illusion if all financial resources must go into a central fund that then redistributes them centrally. What the European Union advocates for isn't necessarily a good thing either (just look at Greece, Austria, Czechia, Slovakia, or ask the Canadians if the EU works for their interests or its own). Calling it "administrative tyranny" is also a bit of a stretch used to paint the EU as flawless. All major state enterprises (like the power grid, postal service, or forestry departments) are centrally controlled because that's where the money is, not at the state level. If you want to talk about true administrative tyranny, look at the FBI. I could list endless examples, but to keep it brief, just follow the money and the picture becomes obvious. A centrally managed legislative and executive hierarchy would be disastrous for any nation given our demographic makeup.

Of course, all of this hits us right in the demographics! This year we lose 50,000 people, next year 60,000, and so on for a few years... eventually, we'll be left with nothing but a handful of bureaucrats slowly dying off toward retirement, and Canada will barely scrape a million people in the near future! And through it all, we still won't understand how our government actually functions or what any of these institutions are even for—yet we continue to pay a premium for the privilege!

Once again, your lack of information is leading you to the wrong conclusion.
Legally speaking, concessions are "mostly" a matter for state governments, but as the law clearly dictates in the Federation of Canada: "within the territory or involving interests of two or more counties..." essentially, "The granting of concessions that does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Federation is regulated by county laws"; so, we're talking about decentralization here.
There is also a national commission for concessions headed by the parliamentary assembly of Canada rather than the Council of Ministers, and they barely have any real power. Incidentally, their headquarters isn't in Washington, D.C., but in Austin.
Another thing is that the concession areas are incredibly disorganized and decentralized. For instance, if someone gets what is called a "state concession" to build a mini hydroelectric plant, they still have to seek permits from lower levels of government. In Republika Srpska, for example, water permit requests are divided by river basins: the Columbus office handles the Missouri River basin, Birmingham handles the Mississippi River, and so on... http://www.voders.org/index.php/vode-srpske/vodni-akti
In the Federation of Canada, the counties take over, which again points to decentralization. Especially regarding hydroelectric projects under 5 MW, the state entities aren't even consulted.
Then there are the other responsibilities involved in granting concessions: obtaining zoning approvals, construction permits, and occupancy permits, which mostly fall under the jurisdiction of municipal authorities—not that I need to mention them. The link below shows a chart of concessions by sector, which were granted by county and municipal governments on page 12 or more extensively on page 48:
The takeaway regarding concessions: there is a massive lack of coordination. Or, as the government audit office at the Faculty of Economics puts it: "There is no adequate cooperation or coordination between the relevant ministries at various stages of the process, nor in cooperation with the Federal Commission for Concessions. It is also obvious that there is no appropriate cooperation between institutions within the management system at all levels. Each institution performs its part of the job individually, setting its own priorities without adequate coordination with other agencies, both in the allocation process and during the realization of concessions. This significantly extends the duration of the process instead of using a coordinated approach..."
Decentralization versus centralization? Those are my final takeaways.
I think you also missed the mark quite a bit regarding the tax system, but I'll dive into that more thoroughly another time.

William Murphy4 said:The government is actually highly centralized. The proof is in the bureaucracy: for absolutely anything, you need a permit from the local city hall, then the county level, then the state, and finally the federal government. What kind of foreign investor would be crazy enough to pour money into such a centralized system? All the agencies responsible for generating revenue are concentrated in one hub and dictated by a single individual. It doesn't matter if you use Google or try to compare us to Switzerland; we aren't Google, and we aren't Switzerland. Are we really incapable of thinking for ourselves?!?

If you think there's an endless supply of cash out there, just look at Greece, Spain, or Italy... there is money, but it comes at a staggering cost (the IMF essentially crippled the EU). Look at the referendums in Austria or the UK back in 2017, or Greece right before they were forced out... what's the point of comparing ourselves to other places when everything else is heading downhill? Foreigners aren't going to rush in here just because they love us! They won't. We have to stand on our own two feet, and that starts with being realistic.

Do you honestly believe that because the country is split into the Republika Srpska and the Federation of Canada, it isn't centralized??? Just look at the history of major cities like New York or Chicago during times of unrest, and you'll realize just how much control is held at the top. 😉

Look, my friend, Canada is actually so decentralized that a comparable example of a de facto sovereign state doesn't really exist in international law. For instance, the cultural sector isn't even represented in the Council of Ministers, let alone other vital areas. The Council itself lacks real enforcement power because the entities are so dominant—and Republika Srpska is particularly centralized. Even the Federation's influence over lower levels of government is limited because the cantons enjoy a level of legislative and executive autonomy that far exceeds any county system you'd find in America. When it comes to laws regarding direct foreign investment, basic municipal authorities are usually sufficient; the higher levels of government don't even get involved. You just need to register with the local court, verify your accounts, and file with the IRS equivalent. Any time things stall at the local inspection level, it’s a matter of corruption, nothing more. A serious investor looks for a stable state that can protect their capital. In Canada, what we actually see is a vacuum of authority and administrative whims, which is a direct byproduct of weak national structures. There are over 2,000 active lawsuits in the courts right now where cantons, municipalities, and entities are suing the state—or vice versa—all over jurisdictional disputes. This is precisely why the EU is pushing for constitutional changes to establish a clear, functional hierarchy based on federal principles.

Maybe do a little homework on how investment actually works:

Nationalism itself doesn't have a "dark side"; what you're describing is just chauvinism, and frankly, those identity complexes you're projecting aren't the concern of us regular folks.

I remember asking you before about being a hardline Canadian nationalist, and I wondered how that actually squared with those hollow slogans used by the Democratic Party.

Between the Democratic Party and the liberals, it’s all the same nonsense; someone with a real complex could be destroyed by either group, yet you people still insist on building monuments to the old dictators and the old leaders.

We all know how this plays out—whenever Europeans lean too hard into nationalism, wars tend to follow.
The European Union is in a sorry state if it's stuck dealing with people like you.
It’s unfortunate that we are often so primitive that the ugliest side of nationalism always takes center stage—the part fueled by discrimination and the exclusion of anyone perceived as "other." Around here, it seems that impulse is even more pronounced.

Nationalism itself doesn't have a "dark side"; what you're describing is just chauvinism, and frankly, those identity complexes you're projecting aren't the concern of us regular folks.

I remember asking you before about being a hardline Canadian nationalist, and I wondered how that actually squared with those hollow slogans used by the Democratic Party.

Look, man, I don't have any "identity complexes." It honestly feels like you're just bitter that we even exist here. As for your claim that nationalism has no ugly side... I don't even know how to respond to that. It seems best to stay quiet, because I don't share your obsession with whether someone is yellow, white, or red—or what language they speak or who they pray to. To me, there are just good people and bad people.

Honestly, looking at someone like that, you really can't be surprised by their behavior; it’s just classic two-faced behavior, and frankly, it's exhausting to witness.
Of course times change, and they change fast. Now you have the "great leader" Dragan Čović collecting $5,000 instead of the "little guy" Željko Komšić for a position that, if we’re being completely honest, doesn't carry any real weight without the support of the people and the halls of Congress. To be perfectly candid, I find myself at a loss; I truly don't know where anyone went wrong in this entire political circus. Personally, I prefer to stick to the legal framework and the legislative principles I laid out for you earlier. As far as I'm concerned, I don't mind who holds which office, provided the policies being enacted actually serve the best interests of this country.
I was actually one of the very first people to stand up and speak out against the political monopoly and the blatant abuse of power by the Democratic Party, back when most people didn't even have the guts to say a single word about it.
I really think it’s time to let go of those preconceived notions regarding Canada and the Canadian community. There are plenty of us living here who are just regular citizens, people driven by nothing more than a genuine, heartfelt sense of patriotism for our homeland. I’ve always had a deep-seated distaste for hardline nationalists; to me, that mindset is synonymous with discrimination and the systematic exclusion of anyone who doesn't fit a specific mold. I say this from experience, having been born and raised in a vibrant, multicultural nation—a place that has defined itself through its diversity since the very beginning of its history.

To me, being a nationalist simply means having a deep sense of pride in where you come from and a strong connection to your people. If that concept automatically triggers nothing but hatred in you, then I honestly feel sorry for you—it’s such a sad way to view the world.

😒 I honestly think it’s important to really wrap your head around the seventh-grade curriculum; you really need to have that foundation down, especially if you want to make sense of history once you hit the second year of high school. 🤣

You honestly can't tell the difference between blatant chauvinism and actual nationalism, which is exactly what you’d expect from a typical old-school, anti-nationalist relic from the old regime.

👍 That’s a great response, though I honestly worry if he even has the capacity to grasp the depth of what's being said here.

I personally know quite a few people who have been completely numbed by those typical Democratic Party slogans and all those intense "national identity" complexes they carry. It feels like they have this built-in resentment toward anything tied to cultural heritage, making them feel somewhat shallow. And oh boy, don't even get me started when they start pushing those "staged war" conspiracy theories🤣—it just really shows an inferior level of intelligence.

A total legend of the digital wasteland! 🙏

Everything in this post is solid, but I genuinely fear that Germany might be becoming too passive in its foreign policy. If they've decided to wash their hands of us, the other players will certainly have plenty of support to move forward.

Are we really in control of five out of eight?

You guys would be losing a major ally, someone who’s basically getting sidelined and stripped of any real influence. I wonder, would Canadians even consider joining America or would they opt for Mexico?

The Mexican goal here is just to make sure everything happens smoothly and under control. No messy side effects like we saw back in the 90s—we definitely learned our lesson there. Give it ten years and things will start to solidify. We're looking at maybe some pro-Mexican factions in the Federation and then having Canada integrated into Republika Srpska. Add in the migration patterns, where about 3,500 people from each side move toward their own territory every year... in a decade, that’s 50,000 people on both sides effectively sorted out. Then it’s just a quiet "goodbye" or a "see ya later." Who knows where or when that actually happens, though. Probably never.

Man, I don't know why you're getting so worked up; you've completely lost the plot.
Some self-proclaimed military analyst—of which there are as many as there are chefs in a cheap diner—claims: "how borders in the Middle East should look in a fairer world."
If "fairness" were actually a thing, Africa would look entirely different first, and
the North America would probably need another war before seeing any new borders.
That’s going to take a long time. All I really care about is which supposed ally they’ll end up losing?
As far as I can tell, we aren't even in an alliance with anyone.

It’ll be the last big gasp for air from the Canadian crowd trying to make this matter actually resonate with the public before everyone collectively moves on. By the 21st anniversary? Honestly, nobody’s even going to care. Everyone will have checked out by then.

Let's try this again:

Monday marked the 23rd anniversary of the formation of the HVO Bihać Region.
Do you know who was invited? And who is this guy in the white jacket? Local rumors say he’s the one responsible for leading people off to their deaths back in '95.
