Albanians Turn on NATO ‘Liberators,’ as War Explodes in Kosovo Posted on Thursday, March 18 @ 11:40:00 EST by CDeliso

The seemingly spontaneous street war that erupted yesterday between Albanians and Serbs in Kosovo confirms exactly what kind of a ‘success’ the West has created in Kosovo. At least 22 people, including a French KFOR peacekeeper reported dead and hundreds more wounded; machine gunners firing at will, churches and mosques ablaze, whole populations chafing at the bit, programmed to seek and destroy.

Another Klintoon success story... Mike Savage may be right about this one.

I think we made a big mistake by not standing with our traditional allies --- the Serbs --- even if it's an ethnic war, not religious, it would be like if we attacked the English to side with the Catholic Irish. Certain civil wars are best left alone but Islam adds a complete different element to this situation --- we stood idly by while Islam murdered 2 million Sudanese.

>>>Are you claiming they aren't real Muslims?

No I am claiming that they are not fundamentalist Muslims.
Ever heard of something called Lord's Resistance Army? Look it up and tell me, with your type of perspective, what conclusion I should draw about Christianity if I had your mentality and I were not a Christian.

Remind me once again...

Is this the continuation of Clinton the Buffoon's 12-month stay? Or was that six months? It's been so long I forget.

Were is Reuters? AFP? the AP?

I can play kindergarten word games with the best of them.

Why don't you tell us a little bit about the conspiracy in which Catholics and Muslims have joined in, in the Balkans, against "Christian" Serbs?

Would that be in the same general area where Jews eat muslim children during their religious holidays?

I suggest a move to Democratic Underground. They will believe anything over there.

Yeah, but will they play word games with me, that's all I really want.

Muslims are driven by their fringe wherever they may reside, and the Albanians have not gone thru a reformation that I know of except the Communist period which apparently has had no effect. They play word games with the West's foolish notions of "Universal Values", but they offer no proof of accepting them.

OSCE & others report that last week's violence appears to have been planned. By whom?

I think it's possible, but I disagree with OSCE on this one. If it had been planned, I cannot think of how much planning it took to risk everything the Kosovars have gained over the last five years. Ex-KLA commanders, government officials, Kosovar journalists etc. were all dismayed and felt threatened by the violence.

Who benefits? As far as I can see, the it's UCK/KLA, who are being arrested by KFOR/UNMIK and beaten in elections by LDK. Is this their last gasp? Or will "the international community" grant their wish of an independent Kosovo and a quick power grab? If the latter, the UCK/KLA win.
