I'm hazy on the whole Balkans issue, being of the opinion as Bismark said that "The whole of the Balkans is not worth the bones of one good Pomeranian grenadier".

However, can anyone tell me why we are supporting the Kosovars against the Serbian people? The Serbs are Christian and were there long before the muslims came in the 1400's. The area is a hot bed of drug running terrorist activity so what the hell are we doing?

Actually, the Albanians predate the Serbs in the Balkans by a long, long time. However, they were all Christian prior to the Ottoman invasion. 30% of Albanians still are nominally Christian.
