more and now I have to leave:

"To amplify the effect of the killings in Kosovo, Serbs gunned down Albanians in the streets and in their homes, sometimes at random, sometimes from target lists. Bodies have been mutilated, with ears cut off, eyes gouged out or a cross, a Serbian symbol, carved into foreheads or chests.

In many places the Serbs compounded the fear with humiliation. Older men were beaten for wearing the white conical hats of the Albanian mountains or forced to make the Serbian Orthodox three-fingered sign. One refugee convoy passed row on row of white conical hats set atop fence posts.

Two months into the campaign now, the terror has been devastatingly effective and virtually unhampered by NATO's bombing campaign, judging by accounts from refugees, relief workers and officials from international agencies, NATO and the United States Government.

By early May, 90 percent of all ethnic Albanians in Kosovo had been expelled from their homes, the State Department says, 900,000 driven across the province's borders and 500,000 more displaced inside Kosovo. Most of those remaining have been chased into hiding in forests and mountains, huddled together in villages penned in by snipers waiting to be allowed to flee, or captured, their fate unknown. "

The title of this story is: HORROR BY DESIGN -- The Ravaging of Kosovo, A special report.; How Serb Forces Purged One Million Albanians http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0CE5DF1430F93AA15756C0A96F958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=1

Where's photo documentation or genuine autopsy evidence of this? Why didn't any of the Albanian refugees/"survivors" have such scars or missing eyes?

The KLA was known to torture/mutilate Serbs. Bokababe has on her page a picture of a KLA soldier with his son standing behind him and he is holding the severed head of a Serb and they have a bag with other heads.

The Albanians have a reputation for controlling the drug trade and forced prostitution in Europe and Britain.

Many, many Albanian have been involved in forcing women into prostitution in Britain. They seem to be in the news there every several weeks.
