Apologists will twist and turn the fact,

Oh the irony.

Oh I remember well, Mamzelle. You are so right. To your list I will add the following:

President Bill Clinton, General Wesley Clark (once a candidate for president of the United States) and Hillary Clinton (now a candidate for president of the United States) who urged her husband to Bomb the Serbs. This, of course, to coincide conveniently with getting people’s minds off of his “personal problems” here at home back in 1999.

The “intellectual elite” back-up was vast. It’s not so vast this time around.

I’m just sorry that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice seems to be following in Madeleine Albright’s shoes. I thought she was smarter than that.

All that post-after-post spewing just because Albania had ONE (bizarre, eccentric, bigoted, Englishwoman) FAN in the circa 1900 West? Pathetic.

From your own WIKI source on your author of the rubbish above: (Edith) Durham came to identify closely with the Albanian cause and championed the unity and independence of the Albanian people. She earned a reputation as a difficult and eccentric person, and was strongly criticized by - and criticized in turn - advocates of a Yugoslav state, who supported the incorporation of Albanian-populated Kosovo into Slavic Serbia. She became increasingly anti-Serb, denouncing what she termed "Serb vermin" for having "not created a Jugoslavia but have carried out their original aim of making Great Serbia .... Far from being liberated the bulk of people live under a far harsher rule than before."

Controversy: Other, more pro-Serb British intellectuals sharply criticised her views. Rebecca West described Durham in Black Lamb and Grey Falcon as the sort of traveller who came back "with a pet Balkan people established in their hearts as suffering and innocent, eternally the massacree and never the massacrer." The distinguished historian R.W. Seton-Watson commented that "the fact is that while always denouncing 'Balkan mentality', she is herself exactly what she means by the word."

It appears that the new and revised Hoppie or some fruitcake like him/her may have decided to post his Muslim propaganda again —under a different moniker—what an insult to the “real” Prometheus...LOL.
