The Balkans have historically been the key battlefield between Islam and European civilization since the battle at Kosovo, where the Ottoman Turks clashed with the Serbs in 1389, to the present. At its apex, the Islamic tide reached and was stopped at the gates of Vienna (1683). It was finally pushed out in the Balkan War of 1912, when the combined armies of Greece, Serbia, Montenegro and Bulgaria were stopped at the Gates of Istanbul (Constantinople) by the intervention of the great European powers of that period. In reality we have fought on the side of our enemies. As in Bosnia before, now in Kosovo, the West has again failed to deal with the basic and overarching Balkan problem — the Serbian Question. Simply, this issue originated from the fact that with the fall of Yugoslavia, nearly overnight one-third of the Serbs found themselves in a new sovereign state hastily recognized by the EU and then the United States. Due to years of experience of genocide and ethnic cleansing during WW II by the Croats, Bosnian and Albanian Muslims, the large Serbian minorities in these two countries demanded self-determination. This was denied as the West took the stand that "borders are inviolable." Yet now the Albanians in Kosovo are encouraged to violate the Serbian borders via self-determination, while the Bosnian Serbs in the entity of Republika Srpska are still denied the same right. Kosovo, a province in Serbia, is about 15 percent of her territory. Within only two generations (1929-1980) from 15 percent of Kosovo population, Albanians reached 80 percent; the Serbs declined from 60 percent to 18 percent in the same period. This is a clear-cut example of what open borders, a high birthrate and wrong politics can produce.

Realy good stuff, especially for begginers in Balkan cryssis.
This has the ominous familiarity to " The Jewish Question". A good portion of the remaining Serbs in Kosovo will be a part of history repeating itself if the KLA thugs get their way. The Albanians know all about fascism, after all they did serve the NAZI S.S cause in Yugoslavia during the Second World War hunting Serbs. Nothing has changed. Time for the JNA to kick some KLA/Islamic fascist ass in Kosovo before its to late....
Bump!
Sjacson, this is a question for your ping list:
Jewish American organisations spend money and build mosques in Kosovo, hand in glove with Wahhabists and Islamic terrorists. Even worse, why JTA (I guess "J" stands for "Jewish", not "Jeddah") spreads Islamofascist propaganda garbage
JTA article contains a a lie of Goebbel's caliber:
" The Shiponje mosque was one of more than 200 deliberately targeted by Serb forces, a testament to the scale of Milosevic's ambitions in changing the cultural identity of Kosovo."
The reality is that Islamic terrorists have changed the Christian identity of Kosovo. Out of 1300 churches and monasteries, only a handful still exist.
In this case, Islamic terrorists are helped by the Jewish American money.
Can anyone explain : why?
If this question is too difficult, here is an auxilliary one:
In WWII both Serbs and Jews were targeted and executed on a mass scale. Some Serbs managed to Save some Jews, even when their own kin was targeted for extermination. "Never again" meant never again to be in such situation and never forget the victims.
Sixty years later, the Serbs are targeted again. And Jewish Americans make travesty of Never again and label victims as perpetrators and perpetrators as victims.
I can understand that Jewish Americans do not give a hoot about Serbs and their interests, the same as 1930's Europeans were unineterested in Jews being in peril. However, I can not understand why the making of mockery out of "Never again" is so widely accepted and perpetrators NEVER confronted.

What I CAN state with some certainty is that europe would have done nothing bu talk about it (and maybe invest in Albanian drug stocks) unless the US stepped in to provide the muscle and the international caveat for forceful change.
And Clinton/Albright et al did just that.
To me the question is not what became of Yugoslavia (its gone away forever) and the Serbs (whom I nominate for instant refugee status if they want to come here).
The questions are
A. Why and how the US took part and in fact did ALL the dirty work? And:
B. Why is the US intent on creating a similar condition, even allowing the same steps, in support of mexican & muslim ambitions within our own borders?
'open borders'
That scares me. How would we take it if illegal immigrants were to come into say..... Arizona, and start burning and destroying our churches. We'd be mad as hell and we wouldn't take it. Same goes for Kosovo. They should be allowed to defend their homeland from illegal immigrants.
