“Any American who supports burning down an American embassy is a traitor.”

Call me what you wish, then, sir.

Because - although I can’t say I “support” burning down our embassy - I can certainly understand how our past actions provoked the Serbians into doing it.

If we don’t want our embassies torched, perhaps we should show some respect to sovereignty of the nations in which those embassies stand....

The honorable thing to do would have been to close our embassy before we announced our recognition of the Rebel Republic of Kosovo. The declaration of independence was an act of war against Serbia. We chose sides in that war against Serbia. It is no wonder our embassy was burned to the ground.
