Wraith - the men were seperated from their family members, who were left in the village.

That information has been available for over a year.

C'mon - you're not sleuthing anymore, you're buying into the Slobo revisionism and embellishing it with your own proprietary tidbits.

The Serbs shot those men, not the KLA.
The men were shot in place, per the subsequent investigations.

You can raise all the questions you want about the prosecution's version of events, but cannot come up with a reasonable subsitute version of events which conforms to information now available regarding Racak.

Neither can Milosevic, and he's going to spend the rest of his life behind bars in part because of it.

Only partly right, the Serb Army shot the rebels (men) but from a distance per all the subsequent investigations! The 'witnesses' (15th April) opinion was, contrary to all evidence, that they were masquered in place. And he had to 'read' that from 'cue' cards he brought with him.

What a farce. Milosevic is now at 21, NATO nada.

So you say.

I maintain that these men were forced to defend their village by the UCK while the normal population was no where near. It is a fact that the UCK dead were removed and only the dead from Racak were left. A fact. You only rely on the falsified OSCE reports and a flawed pathologist who never conducted a proper investigation but refuse to listen to another point of view from a Hum worrier as Vooch puts it.

Hoplite I have not change my position one bit since I started on FR in regards to RACAK. A lot of what I have said is slowly coming to light and I believe you have a problem with acknowledging that I have made some points.

I have a friend, a former OSCE KVM who told me about altered field reports that OSCE were falsifying. I have posted this way before the news media ever printed it. I know the name of the UCK commander whose men stopped one of the two OSCE KVM patrol. As a matter of fact I've sat in this devils office and looked him in the eyes personally for obvious reasons. This individual is still there.

The UCK tried to orchestrate a similar situation in a LDK SUPPORTING village not far from Racak some months prior and it was this same UCK commander who set that one up. You won't find that tidbit in any OSCE report. The villagers were ordered by this UCK commander to remain in this village with a promise that the UCK would defend it. Serbs come, no UCK and a very quick evacuation with some limited fighting. A lot of distrust with this UCK commander by the LDK supporting villagers and trust me word travels much faster than a Serbian tank in Kosovo. Attempts on the lives of Kosovo Albanians from UCK goon squads have taken place because of the the rift between the LDK and UCK at Racak. A very dangerous rift.

So Dear Hoplite I found it curious that the population from this LDK village managed to depart very quickly and those in Racak that could hear the Serbian Armor miles away had a problem doing this. So don't patronize me in regards to what I know and believe and especially don't paint me with the pro Milosivic brush you should know better. I dare you to quote any of my posts that show I support Milosivic. I am not doing this to defend him but to simply add to the TRUTH about a lot of civilians who were forced to become very dead stage props by the UCK to impress the world stage .

I was there my friend and have a better idea of what reality in kosovo is. Buying into the Slobo revisionism indeed!
