This war was going on long before Osama Bin Laden decided to declare a Jihad against America, and Milosevic's assaults on the Muslim residents of Bosnia and Kosovo had nothing to do with fighting Osama Bin Laden.

I reiterate, my info doesn't come from the KLA.

I've always stated that the KLA are a bunch of Marxist losers - Milosevic had the bad sense to follow his political instincts and become a worse player than they were, in the process turning what was a small group of families into the core of a nationalistic movement which offered the only opposition to a police and military force who's abysmal lack of concern for civil rights bit them in the ass whenever a Kosovar Albanian thought to himself "I'm not a KLA member, but the Police don't care about that when they stop us on the street...".

Milosevic made the KLA by sidelining Rugova as a viable alternative, and the KLA was his undoing. There's something fitting there.

Once Macedonia is stabilized, the KLA/NLA/UCPMB/whatever will fade back into the back alleys of the Balkans and get back to their small time hoodlum roots and spend their days competing with the Italian and Turkish Mafias to supply European Herion needs, instead of being relevant players on the international scene.

Lastly, you'll note we give terrorists trials here and don't play 'hide the bodies'.

I guess so, since Bin Laden was tied up with Russia at that time.

...and Milosevic's assaults on the Muslim residents of Bosnia and Kosovo had nothing to do with fighting Osama Bin Laden.

Those assaults, whether supported by Milo or not, went both ways.

Maybe not, but much of the ITCY's does.

Milo never "made the KLA". In the elections last year, they were soundly thrashed by Rugova. NATO, who could have stabilized the Balkans, instead joined and armed the KLA. That's what made them. Non-Albanians in Kosovo and Macedonians have paid dearly for that decision.

Lastly, you'll note we give terrorists trials here and don't play 'hide the bodies'.

Granted, but should we now bomb every country that kills terrorists without a trial?
