Why would I notice a typo before the dweeb points it out? Yes, you've clearly got my elaborate ploy all figured out.. Sarcasm Thumbs Up


It isn't a typo. If it was, you wouldn't have worded it in the way you would have. You're busted. Give it up. Ditch the bullshit.

McCarthy probably thought quite highly of the Czar, so that whole angle seems irrelevant - no need to name-drop Bulgaria any longer. Pan-Slavism really doesn't matter here, whether the Czar wanted to support his Slavic brothers or keep Austro-Hungary from taking that territory, he approved of the mobilization that triggered WW1. Realistically, those two and many other factors played a role, to assume anything else is causal oversimplification. Singling out Germany is laughable and shows a poor understanding of history - if one really feels the need to oversimplify the issue, then he should rather blame Russia and Austro-Hungary.


You're basically proving my point for me. I haven't singled out Germany, if you bothered to read this:
Toggle Spoiler

, I list potential causes in the form of actions by three other countries as well. What kind of simplification is that? You're proving my point for me.


How exactly did I word it? Like I said, just replace 'Bulgaria' with 'Serbia' and it makes perfect sense...hardly reason for you to stay up until 5 AM Sarcasm . Big Grin Big Grin

1. You're taking all the blame off Russia, which was the first great power to mobilize it's forces against another.
2. You're instead putting most of the blame on Germany for reacting to this mobilization with a formal declaration of war.
3. You're holding Yugoslavia (you're saying Serbia, but I can't be bothered to freak out on someone for mixing up country names) as a whole accountable because a Serb killed Franz Ferdinand.

Bottom line, your reasoning is almost as ignorant as declaring the field of inductive reasoning obsolete... Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin
