dennis, those churches are attacked because they were Serbian, not Christian.

This must be the lamest excuse I've heard from the pro-KLA bunch. Actually, it makes my stomach turn.

Is there a special Jesus Christ Serbs worship? Jesus Christovich from Nish or...? If you destroy a Serbian church, you destroy a House of God.

If I followed your logic, I could excuse any and all crimes against Albanians with the following: "Those killed were not human beings; they were just a bunch of Albanians." Right?

Banat, you missed the point. No one is excusing the destruction of churches. The issue was about why those particular churches were destroyed, but others were left alone. The reason is that the Serb Orthodox Churches are seen as symbols of Serbian nationalism. Obviously, Albanian Christian Churches are not and they are therefore left alone.

Now, Banat, since you seem to have an interest in this subject, why did the Serbs destroy over 1,000 Christian Churches in the war with Croatia? There's a description of the damage for each church here.
