Should be:
CLINTON's Kosovo mission failed
 James T. Phillips Serbian children living in the Pristina ghetto are escorted daily by an armoured NATO convoy to school eight kilometres away in the Serbian enclave of Gracanica. |
The Canadians have had some interesting perspective on the Yugoslavia bombing.
This is a nice summary. I like this line:
However, it was two days after the air strikes began that first a trickle, then a flood of refugees began pouring from the region.
A truth many would like to deny.
Allow a limited Serbian police presence, and if it goes well, then allow a bigger presence, and if that goes well, then withdraw all foreign troops and give Serbia full control. Serbia would have to make some concessions, for example according to the constitution, if more than 10% of the population speaks a certain language then that has to be made an official language. Basically, they should just give the Albanians equal rights like FYROM did, and if the Albanians still complain, then that's proof right there that this was never about human rights, only establishing a greater Albania.
There is only one proven solution - recognize tribal nature of non-Western (and some Western) societies and split everything (Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Macedonia, Ulster, West Bank, Timor, USSR, Czechoslovakia, etc etc) (roughly) along the tribal lines establishing simple defensible borders, move people who found themselves on the wrong side of the divide, provide asylum for ethnically mixed families if they could not live in peace on either side of the border.
Say, it will be real easy to convince Serbs to split Kosovo with Albanians if they also could split Bosnia and (may be - there will be a border problem) Croatia along the existing population patterns.
Naturally, there are quite a few finer details in the arrangement to make it workable and discourage splitting of entities which actually can stay together, but IMHO this should be a general principle.
I think that Clinton and Albright will be the last rulers and potentates that America ever has, that will bomb and murder Christians in order to advance Islamic interests and take over land for enlargement of Islam against Christendom.
What must now be done is to provide reparations for these evils of the Clintons and Albright, to Serbia and above all to the present and former Serb residents in Kosovo. Milosevic should not only be freed, he should be made dictator of Kosovo with a million Serbian and Western and Russian troops to put these Albanian butchers back into their place.
And that, of course, really IMO is hell, not just a land on earth called Albania.
Absolutely.
It is time to wake up, colonial times are over, the Cold War is over too, we do not need (and we have no reason to care) about either "that states" or Africa or any other place populated by warring tribes, all we want for them is not drain our resources in various peacekeeping exercises.
Also, it presents an great opportunity of peaceful development for every tribe.
If it were up to me, U.S. embassies would be replaced with a telephone and a fax machine.
