While under the watchful eye of NATO’s Kosovo Forces since 1999, more than 150 Serbian Orthodox churches and monasteries have been destroyed or desecrated and dozens of new mosques have been built — including the Osama bin Laden mosque that now stands on Serbian soil. Is this why peacekeepers are in Kosovo? To protect mosques named after the prime terrorist who has vowed to destroy our country?

In case anyone doesn't feel like reading the WHOLE article....even though they should...

Exactly, The Kristallnacht comment was spot on.

[uncbob]

Yeah Bubba backed the wrong side but you won't hear about that from the MSM

[mcshot]

Part of BJs perfect war. I trust he will get proper judgement for his numerous immoral actions.

[A. Pole]

In 2004, a report by National Review stated: “A pogrom started in Europe on Wednesday. A U.N. official is quoted as saying that ‘Kristallnacht is under way in Kosovo.’ Serbs are being murdered and their 800-year-old churches are aflame. Much of the Christian heritage in Kosovo and Metohija is on fire and could be lost forever.

And yet it was National Review that called for NATO attack on Serbs in 1990s. That it when I canceled the NR subscription. They should at least say sorry and repent.

And all because Bill clinton wanted to distract America from his sexual escapades.

Thanks Bill..."the jihadists' best friend"

the most brutal ethnic-cleansing campaign in post-communist Yugoslavia’s history

After the Serbian ethnic cleansing of Bosnia or Kosovo, that is.

Bump for Stella.

LONG ago, when I was part of the story,
we recognized that (MI) wives got more from the training than their husbands.
Seems it may still hold true.

[Hopefully, same goes for (MI) husbands of different specialty ratings].

"Yeah Bubba backed the wrong side but you won't hear about that from the MSM"

OR from the current, or future, administration.

[A. Pole]

After the Serbian ethnic cleansing of Bosnia or Kosovo, that is.

The number of Serbs there decreased. Albanian Muslims increased. Why?

[Hoplite]

Why?

For the same reason the number of Sudeten Germans decreased after the war.

It's just the Germans generally aren't stupid enough to try and deny what they wrought under Hitler, whereas the Serbs and their friends around here are stupid enough to try and deny what was wrought under Milosevic.

["After the Serbian ethnic cleansing of Bosnia..."]

Interesting how Oric got a get out of jail free card...isn't it?

[Hoplite]

Once you get through the Serbian propaganda, no, not really. He'd been turned into a Serbian boogeyman, but the reality didn't match the myth.

[LenS]

Never try to reason with a Serbophile. They'll try to convince you that Serbia was simply fighting Islam even though they attacked Christian Slovenia and ethnically cleansed much of Christian Croatia before they began attacking the Muslims in Bosnia (and many years before they went after the Muslims in Kosovo).

Actually, it is 400 mosques.

150 Serbian churches are the last 10% that survived Ottoman occupation. Less than 10 ancient churches and monasteries are intact.

THIS IS GENOCIDE. Not one Zipper Clinton told you about, the real one.

["Once you get through the Serbian propaganda...]

Okay, I'll be the devil's advocate. Why would Carla del Ponte announce that she would appeal against the two-year sentence that Oric received (i.e. time served)...

Note that I am not fan of Carla and I would think that she would be impervious to "Serbian propaganda."
