"Instead of being treated as pariahs, the KLA were now to be given a makeover."

The author says, "In short, Kosovo is in a mess."

This is not just a "mess," but a catastrophe of the greatest magnitude. The Balkans has been turned over to al-Qaeda and still our politicians refuse to admit that they were wrong, wrong, wrong!

Doesn't give you much confidence in the future for our country, does it

The only thing that can truly 'save the world', is if all the states, whether 'postmodern', 'pre-modern' or however Cooper wishes to label them, go back to minding their own bloody business.

Ah! A British exponent of the Washington/Jefferson foreign policy, that made modern America possible. (See An American Foreign Policy.)

Article forgot to highlight the simple statistic:

Before the Humanitarian Warriors got involved in Kosovo life was much safer for Albanian civilians. For example, in 1998 some 110 civilians were killed. In 2000 when the HumWarriors were in full control......246 civilians were murdered.

The Yugoslav government says that some 3,000 civilians have been killed in Kosovo since the HumWarriors took responsibility for their safety

True. However, since this ain't gonna happen, it's a little bit like saying, "Can't we all just get along."

Our not becoming involved with or attacking other states is absolutely no guarantee that they or the groups they sponsor won't attack us.
