Bless you!! I really needed this information and appreciate it more than you know.

[vooch]

by way of stating the obvious...........since the only armed faction left in Kosovo were Clinton's pals in the KLA at the time these US soldiers were killed...........isn't it clear that the KLA killed 'em ?

That is for that time period from late 98 to March 99.

No Vooch, those numbers are ACCURATE. These are the numbers the Walkers "group" came up with. The wildly exagerated numbers are the ones publicly disclosed, not these because these numbers do not collaberate their propoganda story line.

[vooch]

beg to differ, but Walker's group was seriously compromised. Racak is a prime example. In addition, a number of monitors have subsquently come out and publically stated that Walker changed their field reports.

both Wraith and wonders have 1st hand experience in the field and may be better able to speak to the technical aspects of William Walker's credibility.

I'd be interested in seeing the detail of Walker's numbers, at least to determine KLA KIA. (KLA said in WSJ that they had more than 2,500 KIA)

[Wraith]

Walker was a tool of the perception makers. The perception of the massacre was more important the protecting a crime scene after all Walker was walking right in the middle of it. Walker's credibility is 0. Love to see him run for office.......

[vooch]

Run for office ...........? William Walker ??????????

Good Morning, students of history!

Albanian:: 3685 = .002% of population (1.890.000 albanian sources).
Serbian:: 2962 = .014% of population.(210.000 albanian sources)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
my point exactly, Voocher. WSJ numbers as above confirm MY accuracy in Albanian dead.

Walker didn't care less about the expose-after effects. He needed that NOW effect, and he got it and what remained did not matter.

Those reports have those numbers I stated. Where have I given information and they were later PROVEN wrong? Hmmmmm? Take note, when I make claims I do so when I am surely confidant of its accuracy. Much like the UNMIK has given all Police authority of Northern Kosovo to the Serbian police, you know about that? They abandoned the Leposavic and region police stations and handed the keys to the Serbs.

That accuracy had Martin Sugarman nearly expel me from his Q/A open forum few years back.

[vooch]

are you suggesting that KLA had some 2,500 KIA and there were some 1,400 non-Combatant Albanian deaths ?

[wonders]

I don't understand your numbers. Not arguing, just asking. These are supposed to be all of '98 + pre-bombing '99? Back on the eve of the bombing campaign, CNN gave the total number killed on both sides as around 2,000 for the same time period. So you're saying it was more?

Also, it would help to know what your interest is here. I assume the "pocket" in your tagline is Bihac. And Banja Luka I know. Brcko is h*ll on earth. I haven't tried to puzzle out HHC and OJF. But if you're really from RS, then why did you say Pakrac is in Eastern Slavonija when it is actually in Western Slavonija? You perplex me, CPC.

[CPC]

Within the year prior to the bombing of '99. Forget CNN, they are only told what is to be publicly reported. Those numbers are correct, very accurate.

I am an American as I have special interests within the Balkans.

Pakrac location should have stated Western Slavonija, my mistake. Thank you for pointing that out as it was overlooked on my part, Sgt Wonders.

[wonders]

Oh, I see. You believe in reincarnation.

Okay, but why would CNN say it was less, rather than the actual number or more? Goes against their agenda, no?

[CPC]

If the numbers were accurately publicized, the Serbs would be furious and the world courts (Liberal Humanitarion Warriors) would scream for Nuclear Obliteration of Serbia. It would complicate the situation and spin it out of control. The ground was in a controlled setting and NATO was able to apply light leverage to the ground fighting.

If the horror was accurately depicted and correct figures revealed, a controlled chaos would become an out of control monster that Bill Clinton needed to avoid at all costs.

[ma bell]

I believe this is an example:

In the same grave several other bodies were found of Serbs who disappeared before the war; the process of identifying the remaining bodies has not yet been completed.

The autopsy revealed that the death was violent because his head was not found with his body and several of the bones were broken. The mantle and sweater show several knife wounds in the area of the heart and the front of the sweater was cut, obviously by a sharp object.

Lots of good stuff all over this thread.

[getoffmylawn]

Woops. Disregard my last post. Wrong thread :-D
