Well if they wanted to prove they could squash any of their neighbours, whilst the world dithered.
They've proven their point, game set and match.
Proved beyond any final doubt that the UN, the EU, and NATO really are absolutely flipping useless, pointless wastes of money and should be scrapped.
The EU security agency couldn't organise a snowball fight in the North Pole. (That said with one phone call put most of Europe in the cold and dark).
UN security council is a sick joke (Syria and Lybia have chaired it!) it just exists to veto it's self.

When peace making/keeping can only be done by US acting unilaterally we're in a very unsafe world.

Well forcing Bill CLinton to back military action, that lead to the only reversal of ethnic cleansing ever.
C'mon even Pony Tony is allowed a few seconds in the sun.
Point was that whilst it may have been, it's rather akin to commenting that the shit your dog just left in a park was more pleasantly fragrant than any it has produced in the past.

So how come the interest in the British sitcom?
I remember reading somewhere that repeats of the Onedin Line were the only joy for Rumanians under Ceacescu.
The revoloution kicked off a year after they were taken off air.
