PRISTINA -- Tuesday – The Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC) has drafted a “Military Strategy” in response to the threat of Serb forces returning to the province and the danger posed by the creation of Serb enclaves, Pristina daily Zeri reports.

Quoted by Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti, Zeri reports that the document has been submitted to the United Nations mission, KFOR international peacekeeping force and other international offices in Pristina.

It warns that the “enclavisation” of the Serb minority represents a security threat to the province, as does the continuing influence of the regime in Belgrade and its refusal to accept the laws and rules of the international presence.

The KPC, which was created by the UN from the disbanded guerrilla army, proposed the creation of a 10,000-strong Kosovo army, with 20,000 reservists. The focus will be on rapid reaction units.

What terrorist ridden organization, officially registered as disaster relief (FEMA) has to do with military planning?

Its members were caught in terrorist acts, racketeering, and infiltration of neighboring Macedonia.KPC members are banned from training outside Kosovo and UNMIK adimits it is infiltrated with terrorists. Could it be that KPC is not FEMA-type enterprise, but terrorist force in disguise, armed and trained by American instructors?

The time has come to withdraw NATO forces from Kosovo and allow the Serbs to reclaim their province.

Given the recent actions of our European "allies," all US troops should be immediately withdrawn from Kosovo, Bosnia, and Germany.

Let the Europeans deal with their own messes.

It could be, but it is not.
