This is exactly what vooch's been saying all the time, that worst crimes against Albanians were done by KLA.

thanks for the ping...............the KLA has been always primarily focused on the supression of loyalist & moderate Albanians..........very little of KLA activity was ever directed towards the attacking the government.......they spent most of their energies killing their own people

odd that Gashi isn't mentioned in this article.......also it was my understanding that Drini was iced as part of a inter-KLA squabble over smuggling routes.......Drini's ZO covered the key KLA smuggling routes (which were pretty useless to the KLA while the government was guarding the border, but became wide open once the UN guys took over)

“We know a lot,” says UNMIK spokesman Lindmeier, "but our problem is witnesses. They have a gun pointed at their head. Many withdraw their original statements after threats by their former KLA fellow fighters".

They could of course do as they are doing in the trial of Milosevic, which is accept hearsay testimony.

"Everyone in Kosovo knows but none dares to speak about it," says the former prime minister of the exiled Kosovars and current chairman of the New Party for Kosovo, Bujar Bukoshi. "After the war the cruelest cleansings took place among the Albanians. Under the pretext that they were ‘Serbian collaborators’, the leaders of the KLA liquidated their political opponents; old blood feuds were settled, and Albanian civilians were executed by the Albanians themselves."

The number of the victims is estimated to be more than a thousand.

An Albanian estimates that over 1000 Albanians have been killed by other Albanians after the war. No doubt some/most/maybe all of these bodies have been included in the count of bodies dug up in Kosovo in 1999 and 2000 to be blamed on the Serbs. It seems like the KLA terrorists can have their cake and eat it too - they kill their rivals or anyone they choose and all it does is demonize the Serbs more, which boosts their cause further.

So this is how a 21st Century 'multi-ethnic' UN 'protectorate' works?! Meanwhile Kosovo is painted as a success story by the Bill 'n Blair gang. What a joke.

According to Hague tribunal chief prosecutor Carla del Ponte, in any case indictments against some Kosovo Albanians will be filed before the end of the year.

Interesting that indictments against Serbians could be issued actually during the bombing, but even with all of their own evidence the UN takes 3 years to issue any indictments against the KLA (a listed and known terrorist group).

This is an international disgrace - what a shame that no 'Western' leader has the balls to expose it for what it is.

Hashim Thaci, Agim Cheku and Ramush Haradinaj

Wish it were true, but they'll never go after them. After all, Thaci and Ceku were once the Clinton Administration's darlings. Can't have pictures of Mad Maddie kissing a War Criminal floating about, now can we? Nor have it come out that the head of KPC was a War Criminal. Not to mention any evidence of US complicity in Ceku's doings in Croatia (after all his doings in Gospic, etc.) emanating from The Hague. Never happen. (sigh)
