American policy in Balkans is CRIMINAL and not diplomatic. You can use by-words but you cannot hide how the thing really looks like. Serbian reaction is absolutely natural and American administration got from them what really deserve. If you spite on somebody’s face then don’t expect reasonable reaction.

My wife worked for him on bioth elections and now wishes she hadn’t this second term of Bush has truely left mde with a sour taste in my mouth

we had no buisness helping the ethnic cleansing by albanian muslims if we did then it should have bene helping to rid Kosovo of Islamic terrorists but no

Clinton wanted to give muslims something so they would like him so the left stays silent while clinton and wesley clark goes to war and ethnically cleanses part of serbia

Now Bush comes along and gives these Islamic terrorists a country of their own and I bet we will be bombing and losing good Americans because of this inthe future

Serbia in the past have been brave good allies and still could have been against islamic terrorists yet we reward these terrorists

So here we are Bin laden , saudi arabia etc and other islamic nutjobs laugh at the sheer incompetence of this, islamic training camps now get set up

You can bet this has spurred the muslims to look at macedonia now

Hey why not they got what they wanted because of the ignorance of Clinton, the media, wesley clark and Bush

So you're complaining that Clinton handed it off to Bush, but not that Bush will do the same to Obama or McCain?

Not at all! Appeasing the Albanians was a serious mistake. We could pay a much higher price by alienating Russia!

The Bosnian conflict was a bit more complex than a fight between Christian Serbs and Muslims :)

Here's a little tip. When deciding who to back in a conflict, even a multi-sided complex conflict, never choose the Muslims.

Good afternoon.
“The US is foolish to support an Islamic terror base in Europe.”

That’s the bottom line here. W and Condi just helped our Islamist enemies carve their own little nation out of ancient Serbia and it will come back to bite us sooner rather than later.

Bush must be so proud to have helped along with clinton and wesley clark for setting up the first muslim country in Europe

Bush you truely have messed this up

Serbia has every right to go into Kosovo and stop this as it is still their country, just because 12 countries around the world say we are taking that part away and giving it to a muslim state now

How on earth can anyone take Bush seriously anymore after this, troops in Iraq and Afghanistan , our borders are open and now he sets up an islamic state

unbelievable this truely is

I know this - geopolitics is far more complicated than any here seem to grasp. We don’t even know what we don’t know, yet many sit in judgement of the decisions of others who are trained, and have experience in these matters.

YES, MASTER! WHAT EVER YOU SAY. Who are we to doubt the British Crown!

It almost seems like they are intentionally trying to destabilize the entire area.

“Any American who supports burning down an American embassy is a traitor.”

Call me what you wish, then, sir.

Because - although I can’t say I “support” burning down our embassy - I can certainly understand how our past actions provoked the Serbians into doing it.

If we don’t want our embassies torched, perhaps we should show some respect to sovereignty of the nations in which those embassies stand....

Exactly. One weeps at the injustice of this war and its aftermath, and the absolute ignorance of our people.

An Indian fellow I work with asked, “Why do Americans put up with all this nonsense?”

I told him, “American schools are the worst in the free world. And the parents either don’t know it, or don’t care.”

How can even the media support this

the reason why the serb army went in was because of albanian extremist muslims was trying to force the serbs out of their own country.

clinton helps the muslims and now Bush decides to recognise this new muslim country.

Imagine if you saw part of your country being ethnically cleansed, so you send in your army only for a superpower to bomb you then years later saying that it is not part of your coiuntry now as it belongs to the muslims who was forcing out your country men inthe first place

and some in the media are upset about a flag or an embassy

muslims now look at map and say hey we now head to macedonia for our next country

Is this all worth it against Russia, china when we are supposed to be fighting islamic extremists

You’re welcome. Like others have said on the thread...very bad precedents set here on a much larger scale.

The Palestinians will use any type of manipulation against Israel. Because of the example set by Kosovo, now they are even more emboldened and will try to use this to legitimize themselves.

By recognizing a declaration of independence by a new Muslim nation, I think Bush is saying "OK, now you guys owe us one! Perhaps that what clinton thought when he supported Islamic Bosnia. What did it get us? 9-11.

What is Albania? Albania is not members of the EU even though they are indisputably a part of Europe. Kosovo will never be a part of the EU.

See what happens when a fascist communist like Milosevic empties his jails and sends criminals across borders to terrorize people whom previously weren’t religious at all or gave a fig about ones ethnicity?
