History has been a harsh critic of Neville Chamberlain's decision in 1938 to allow Adolf Hitler to trash the WWI Versailles peace treaty to seize control of and change the borders Europe, first France in the Rhineland, then Czechoslovakia and Poland. President George W. Bush's quick acceptance of the efforts of the Albanians in Kosovo to change the borders of Serbia will also be viewed in history as an appeasement that did not work.
World War II actually began when Adolf Hitler marched a mere 14,500 troops into the Rhineland on March 7, 1936, in violation of the Treaty of Versailles that ended World War I and the Locarno Treaty which was signed in 1925 that included the "Rhineland Pact" between Germany, France, Belgium, Britain and Italy. The Rhineland Pact's main provision was an agreement among Germany, France and Belgium end border raids, with Britain and Italy agreeing to guarantee the borders in the event of aggression by any of the other states. ... Kosovo is for Serbia a land somewhat similar to what Pennsylvania is to Americans. Kosovo is the cradle of Serbian liberty and the center of their Serbian culture. There are hundreds of structures, churches, monuments, monasteries, that attest to that history. What has happened in Kosovo, with America's help, would be similar to a large group of Islamic fundamentalists, whose hero and mentor is Osama Bin Laden, moving into Pennsylvania over the next 50 years, as Albanians did in Kosovo in the 20th Century, and then voting to become an Independent State with membership in the United Nations, as they burned down the Christian churches, Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell while driving out and seizing the property of the remaining Christians, Jews and non-Churched homeowners.

equal opportunity for all losers!
The Henry Ford family et. al. would never stand for that. :-) /s
JasonC is a Turkish left over from the Balkans!
the best things is just to ignore him!
Serbia won’t exist at all if they try to take Kosovo from the US troops which occupy it.
you are a serious brain buster, Serbs will always exist, trying to remember that! Serbs are not trying to take Kosovo
from US, Kosovo IS SERBIA!!! Serbia was always pro American (US). the problem started when US orchestrated the biggest and the longest lasting air campaign in history of any military, it lasted 78 days, and yes Serbia was bombed during the Easter holiday. last time I checked US was found on Christian believes, and Serbia is Christian country. WTF what gives?
-Serbia is incapable of controlling Kosovo.
Kosovo is under NATO control from 1999, no much improvement!
-Nobody has any confidence in Serbia.
what confidence you looking for, Serbs don’t need another welfare state like Montenegro
-NATO has the resources and standing to get the job done in Kosovo. I trust NATO much more than Serbia.
waiting from 1999, and waiting, and waiting
...”tell me what will you do when the Moslems declare Dearborn MI [an] independent state?”
If US is on their side, it would be a problem. otherwise I do the same thing my ancestors did with the Turks in Serbia!
we are not tribal society either ...
I would strongly suggest for all of you out there who find torching US embassies entertaining and carry US passport (I realize some of you probably never saw one) to start with “Serb anonymous” 12 step ... sooner the better
here is some help, it can go like this ...
Hi, my name is Milosevik, I am an American, but I like Serbs and other people who torch US embassies more than americans
group should reply, hi Milosevik,
so take it from here, you may be cured some day, there is always hope
The USA will tear your precious Serbs to shreds if they try anything. Your Russians are nothing but impotent losers still upset about the humiliating defeat Ronald Reagan handed them during the Cold War. Go join the Russian army of conscripted slaves where they castrate you and call it “hazing.”
Joe, You should always keep your tail between your legs, and your a** against the wall, get yourself soap on the rope.
Last time I checked, Cold War is still going on in full force .The year is 2008, and the Russky are the biggest producers and suppliers of oil and natural gas. And oil is $100,and you’re talking about losers.
I do wonder sometimes why did the US Navy lower the standards and let you in.
Will never happened, unlike Serbs, Albaninas or whoever lives in these mountains, Americans are smart people.
we are not tribal society either ...
You are definitely product of the poor public schooling, my advice is that you should go back to school and ask your history teacher to give you money back, because they didn’t teach anything. unless I paid for your education through my taxes, then I should get the money back. firsts you should never use Serbs, Albanians and Americans in the same sentence ever again! because it is an insult to all Serbs and Americans.
English must be your second language, where are the mountains you talking from in Bosnia or Kosovo.
Now all you have to do is support your statement and it might rise above the level of baseless slander.
Good luck!
Same can be said of Serbian forces reclaiming Kosovo from an occupation of illegal aliens from albania.
Is this the Srebrenica Sqwuak boxes other illigitimates cousin or brother???
Get a clue and some sense to know reality versus media lies. Stay away from your muslim friends,they will lie to you. It is written in the koran that it is OK to lie to nonmuslims.
Clinton killed over 3,000 Serbs - mostly women and children. These people had done us no harm and posed no threat to us. There is no excuse for what Clinton did.
FYI, I am not a Serb and have to my knowledge never met anyone from Serbia. Likewise I have no love for Russia. But this time Russia is on the right side and Bush is on the wrong side.
Mary Mostert is more than a little bit bright and she seems to see the potential for a major war in this business. My own view would be that the US is presently stretched too thin to make much of a response to a major Russian move into Kosovo and I can’t picture Europeans doing anything about it.
Wow, that’s your proof? It’s like saying, “The Americans are incapable of governing their country — just look at the 1992 LA riots or Seattle!”
Hey, Jason, did your mom drop you on your head when you were little? Bigotry isn’t welcome here.
Nonsense.
Yes, but, all you need for WWIII is Hillary as chief in command, and Wesley Clark as secretary of defence...
Oh, is that why they have strict orders not to engage either of the sides and if serious violence breaks out (say shooting), they are to evac the international staff and retreat into their compounds?!
