to fight on the Muslim side in the 1992-1995 war against the country's Serbs and Croats

Wow. So the Serbs were not invading their own nation like Clinton said, but the other way around? Golly Gee, wow.

Funny they mention al-Qaida in Bulgaria, where the pipeline to the Balkans begins and where there lives a sizable Turkish Muslim population in which al-Qaida can hide in.

U.S. majors consider Balkan pipeline-project head "oil from Bulgaria to Albania via Macedonia"

Bush to Meet With Bulgarian PM

Thu Mar 21, 5:13 PM ET

EL PASO, Texas (AP) - President Bush (news - web sites) will meet April 23 with Prime Minister Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha of Bulgaria.

The meeting in Washington will cover "Euro-Atlantic and regional issues of common concern," White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites) said.

"Bulgaria is a good partner and friend of the United States, which has actively supported the war on terrorism and made significant contributions to our common effort of maintaining peace and stability in southeast Europe," Fleischer said.

I posted this same article from Nando times earlier today. But heck, I don't care.

Just want to be sure everybody sees this from the Benevolentia International Foundation brochure:

A hungry Al Qaida waits. And Waits...

For decent weapons, a chance to make bombs, booby traps, even a single bogus Passport.

Won't you please help?

The article is mostly notable for the following:

"Zahiragic is also a former member of the Bosnian Muslim secret police, AID."

This is important because it suggests something more than Bosnia is simply a haven for terrorists. It offers a concrete and undeniable connection between a very important instrument of Izetbegovic 's regime and islamic terrorism. Such connections must be publicly exposed to demolish the prevalent western image of Izetbegovic's muslims as the "victims" of the "aggressor" Bosnian Serbs.

If there was ever a case of, "Biting the hand that feeds you," the Balkans has to take the cake.

A catastrophe on the scale of 9/11? In Sarajevo? There aren't that many Americans in Sarajevo... are there?

Hmmm...

"President Bush will meet April 23 with Prime Minister Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha of Bulgaria. The meeting in Washington will cover "Euro-Atlantic and regional issues of common concern,"

Could this be a trumped-up story so American pockets get picked?

The U.S. Embassy in Bosnia shut down to the public on Wednesday after receiving word of a possible terrorist threat. The embassy closed entirely on Friday.

Sounds like the threats were credible, too bad our intelligence couldn't anticipate and locate the terrorist meeting.
