This war was going on long before Osama Bin Laden decided to declare a Jihad against America...

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.

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

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

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

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?

No Milo and his policies in Kosovo, no thousands of recruits for the KLA.

Milo invalidated Rugova's policy of non-violent protest in the eyes of the majority of Kosovar Albanians by drawing the Serbs into violent responses against them whether they were KLA affiliated or not. Treat everybody like rebels, and soon they shall be.

So to answer your last, Milo wasn't only killing terrorists without trial, he was killing men, women, and children who had nothing to do with the KLA in his attempts to neutralize it.

You must be kidding? Any reliable sources please.

BTW, do you know the name of person who commanded certain infamous Riga OMON actions? Yesterday I heard a name of today famous Islamic freedom fighter, than OMON officer. May be as a Balto_Boy, you have it in your files?
