    Andy, the treatment of Bosnia-Herzogovina but in the 1800's, massively shaped the stances taken by the European super-powers in later years and of course, in the recent Balkan War. Britain had no part in those original negotiations because Lord Derby as Foreign Secretary believed firmly in non-interventionst behaviour. Disraeli who was PM couldn't be bothered with the details and left his best friend, Lord Derby, to deal with them. Pressure from Queen Vic evetnually forced Disraaeli to take Derby to task. By the time Derby acted the negotiations were over.

    I am not twisting history as you accuse me, but relaying the facts which can easily be verified. I am also not trying to lecture you.
