“Kosovo governor Michael Steiner has branded the Albanian National Army a terrorist organization.”

So what? NATO has neither permanent friends nor permanent enemies ... only permanent interests. It demonstrated it in the past, when dealing with the KLA. First it clearly defined the KLA as a terrorist organization (see bellow); then it killed several thousand Serbs and Albanians in order to steal part of Serbia and hand it over to the same gang of criminals - KLA.

"Elements of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA, an armed ethnic Albanian group that seeks independence for Kosovo) were also responsible for abuses. They committed killings, were responsible for disappearances, abducted and detained Serbian police, as well as Serb and Albanian civilians (those suspected of loyalty to the Serbian Government), and in a few isolated cases "tried" suspects without due process. There are also credible reports of instances of torture by the KLA."

U.S. Department of State Serbia-Montenegro Country Report on Human Rights Practices for 1998 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, February 26, 1999.

"We have also called on Kosovar Albanian leaders to condemn terrorist action by the so-called Kosovo liberation army (UCK), noting that violence does not contribute to the search for a just and durable solution to the problems of Kosovo."

Press Statement by James P. Rubin/Spokesman, March 2, 1998.

"We are also, however, concerned about attacks against Serbian civilians in Kosovo by Albanian extremist groups, including the Kosovo Liberation Army (UCK).".

Press Statement by James P. Rubin, Spokesman, July 15, 1998.

And how is our relationship with the KLA any different than our relationship with some of the Afghan warlords we worked with to oust the Taleban?

We used them, and now we are working to sideline them.

Bear in mind that the US controlled NATO took its orders from the Christian hating, rapist, coward president in office at that time. For this reason it is no surprise he and the Catholic pope gave aid and comfort to muslims in their machete hacking mutilation of women and children Serbian Christians.

You may have noticed the silence from the Vatican toward the persecution of orthodox Serbian Christians.

The reason?

Keyword: Orthodox. The Vatican II supporters now controlling The Church believe all religions have validity before God. They're the "we all worship the same God" idiot heretics. It's leader went so far as to kiss the Quran, and publicly embrace 'Palestinian' terrorist leader Assafart.
