Osama bin Laden was reported to have been in the Balkans by the Yugoslav media, which, under Milosevic, was not a credible source...

I don't see any references to the Guarantor or his press here.

...and if there was a KLA terrorist camp in Mitrovica in 1994, I guess that makes Slobo a terrorist supporter, as the KLA didn't come into existence until 1996.

Maybe the separatists didn't hook up with Bin Laden until 1996, but they were at it long before Milosevic.

The question is whether Osama bin Laden was in the Balkans. His organization was, but there have been no credible reports that he himself was ever in either Bosnia or Kosovo, and his organization hasn't been responsible for anything of note in the Balkans - Britain is a far better place to look for Bin Laden hosting culpability.

Lastly, unlike true Mujahadeen, the majority of Muslims in the Balkans don't want anything to do with Sharia, and would be expelled or executed for heresy (wow, what irony) as soon as they came under any sort of fundamentalist islamic state - the fighting in the Balkans was never about religion as much as it was a simple power struggle cloaked under a religious vestment. Serbia has Muslims living peacefully inside its' borders, but they never posed a political threat to Milosevic, ergo, they were allowed to stay - not so the non-Serbs living in Croatia, Bosnia, and Kosovo who threatened Milosevic's power.
