RE: http://www.military.com/NewsContent/0,13319,162345,00.html
"The unit, which arrived in Kosovo in October, was previously deployed to Kosovo in 2004, when rioting broke out amid increasing tensions between minority Serbs and the majority ethnic Albanians, who make up about 90 percent of the population. During the riots, 19 people died and nearly 900 were wounded, and as many as 10 public buildings and 30 Serbian villages were damaged or destroyed." Who cares? Why is this a US problem? Maybe Germany should intervene next in US probl;ems with Mexico? Anyway, I believe that President Clinton and General Clark are war criminals for having bombed the tar out of a country that had not attacked the US and posed no security threat to the US.

Let's not forget that there are still troops in harm's way in areas of the former Yugoslavia.

This is an important issue because it is a threat to our European allies. The reason the USA got involved was because it threatened our allies in Eastern Europe and threatened the economy and stability of the entire region.

Thanks Bill. I thought you were told it was to stop the nasty Serbs doing another 'genocide' on the Albanian Kosovans. |

That doesn’t fly anymore, so we need to find a more suitable explanation.... Divert public attention from domestic problems, and keep NATO relevant.  "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe |

Muslim in name only? That makes no sense. Do they worship Allah or believe in Jesus? if they worship Allah, it may go past the "in name only status"...maybe they arent like the radical nuts that share their faith...now that I can believe. |

First,
- Pray for our troops that are over in Kosovo keeping the two sides apart. Second, - Let Congress start demanding a timetable for getting them out of there before it gets ugly. The Minn. Judge tells it all in his statment:
third, - I still want to see why no one is raising the issue in the current campaign about the Billary Co-Presidents not having an exit strategy. |

Kosovo has, in effect, become another Korea, where American forces have been stationed since 1953. Will we never learn?!

Many are non-practicing and taking the title of Muslim out of tradition. Most of the rest are what we would call moderate. |

That was the sound byte for the sheeple. People who had a fair education and were able to read knew what was going on. Serbia's "ethnic problem" was being forced over the boarder into Albaina and Macidonia. Neither country could handle the influx. |

Well put. I guess the whole not eating pork, praying five times a day and the usual "hate America" rhetoric was a bit much to bear....well good for them  . Well, not eating pork, is good, but I cant part with bacon and nothing wrong with praying......so don't jump down my throat people. |

Vladimir Putin is right on this issue, and we are wrong.
If it is OK to chop up a nation to produce smaller and smaller nations for ethnic minorities, where does it end? Do the Chechens get a nation? How about the Basques? Can we carve a chunk out of Spain for them? What if it's an American Indian tribe next, deciding that the reservation ought to be an independent nation? One thing for sure- if it is a question of a NON-muslim minority in a Muslim nation, this would NEVER be considered. There will never be a Coptic Egypt, or a Bahai Iran. And if Kosovo can break away from Serbia, can parts of Kosovo break away from it? What if one village is Serbian and refuses to change over, can they stay Serbian? And what if five houses in that one village want to be in Kosovo? Can they quit the village? Or five apartments in one building? Too many loose ends in Kosovo. Swami |

Breaking up because of ethnic tensions...if the United States supports this, I wonder when the South will rise again..or when Utah will declare itself an all white state. Of course, these are thoughts of lunacy, I dont think anyone in America hates any group THAT much that they would secede from these fine United States. Like it was said on another thread, that is an eastern european problem, why we are involved is beyond me. |

Do you think that's why they are called the "Indian Nations?" |

This is one of the problems the Soviet Union and Yougoslavia were repressing through idiology, totalitarianism, and secret police. Once the "Evil Empire" collapsed the repressed problems re-surfaced. In the USA we have no concept of nationalism and ethnicity going back for centuries. In Eastern Europe it is a way of life (and death). |

Now I may be wrong but from what I understand the Iroquis (sp) already do not recognize the U.S./Canadian Governments and are running a separate government, issuing passports and have Consulates in Foreign nation, Britain included. Also the Lakota are trying to Declare Independence. More power to them! Frisco |
