>>Besides ending communism, fascism, and nazism - war has never solved anything!>>
Mickey, no offense taken, but I disagree with your signature: a war can't change people's minds, heart or thoughts. They may keep a bit silent for some time - if they haven't been killed - but their minds, heart and beliefs still remain. Germany is not the only country with neo-nazis, but we've got them here: young people.
The old-communists in former Russia still try to corrupt the country and nearly every country has facists.
And if I'm not totally wrong: The racist community Ku-Klux-Clan is still active in the USA.
War may change conditions - for better or worse - but it takes more and other efforts to solve and change.
If I misread the irony behind your signature, then, please forget my post <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Addendum: I liked your opening post, I consider it very precious, this kind of old love, of growing together - never experienced it though, my own personal record is 4 years <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> of close relationship.
