Explosive

Like numerous of the weapons on our streets, the grenades that killed two policewomen in Manchester had come from the former Yugoslavia. Remind me, what hand had we in creating a former Yugoslavia?

    Rather pathetic to link foreign policy from 20 years ago with this. You don't think weapons go missing from stable countries? You don't think these things end up on the black market anyway? Grenades are a very small item in the vast arsenal of the Warsaw Pact. When you consider how corrupt some people in those places are, it shouldn't come as a surprise that these things end up in other countries.

    I know you're an apologist for the USSR and such Lindsay, but this one post is particularly lame.

    I am most emphatically not an apologist for the USSR, to which Yugoslavia was most emphatically not allied. And this has been going on for 20 years. Everyone who keeps their ear to the ground knows that. Now that it is becoming public, it is time for the questions to be asked. Primarily the question posed in this post.

    How right you are. The "assisted" disintegration of Yugoslavia, which you rightly say was never part of the Soviet bloc, has been flooding our own underground with lethal weapons for a generation.

    And what has gone around, has now come around.
