    Because it all boils dow to your coward policy of turning ethnic groups against each other- THEN YOU ANXIOUSLY WAIT TO CASH IN OFF THE HUGE MILITARY SPOILS.

    That is how it works, otherwise, no body would waste their precious time thinking about your next PARASATIC POLITICSL games and moves.
