There is one simple solution for Bush. Just tell everybody that if they declare independence, the U.S. is leaving and the beds will be made and the fridges stocked for the Russians who will replace us. That’s all.
the US has about 1600 troops in kosovo. i´m shure it would hurt if they leave (by the way they do not leave) but this wound not prevent kosovo from declare it´s independence. there are about 19.000 european soldiers in kosovo and 2 battle groups on stand by.
Or perhaps you'd rather we shed American lives to further the cause of Islamists' expansion into Europe? And these are Islamists who cannot support themselves because they have no economy other than sexual slaving, drugs, and illegal weapons trading (including those used to attack the US Embassy in Greece), so the Kosovo Albanians will be sucking off the American taxpayer teat for many decades while they plot to take over parts of Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro and the rest of Southern Serbia with the same strategy that worked so well for them in Kosovo.
Unfortunately, those are the alternatives we have left ourselves with. We've painted ourselves into a corner -- and it really, really, really sucks.
