28th July 1914 Austria-Hungary declares War on Serbia. Later in the evening the Empire strikes back at Serbia for harboring the Black Hand Terrorist organization that Killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand, nephew of Emperor Franz Josef and heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire by Shelling a Serbian Military installation. The Powder Keg had been lit and the fuse was burning down. The Next Day Austro-Hungarian Gun Boats Shelled Belgrade. The inevitable invasion would not begin until 12 July 1914. Germany would invade Belgium on 4 August bringing England into the conflict. The Stage was set for the world's first world war.

(Sorry for the delay I was helping a handy man I had hired in for some work around my place.)

To Commemorate the occasion I have taken the liberty to Fly the Flag of the Austro-Hungarian Duel Monarchy. Today is the 100th Anniversary of the first day of the war.

I was hoping you were privy to information pertaining to government sponsored death squads or something. I mean besides the "contractors" in Iraq. Like a new Wikileaks doc or something hitting today. Or new legislation. Or another banking scam screwing the everyman out of what little we have left after the last time they went up in us with no lube....
