...from what I have seen this guy was less of a crook and opposed to those who fund our enemies. In other words, I consider this man a nominal ally...

Ok, now I see where you're comming from, and if that were true, I'd agree. However, those of us who have been following the Balkans threads closely recognize that Djindjic was a pure opportunist without principle who would have allied himself with bin Laden if he offered him a better hand. As such, I don't exactly mourn his death, though I am concerned about the political chaos this assasination may bring.

It may have been internal organized crime that did it, however, as others have stated, it is an odd coincidence that for the first time in his political career he began challenging NATO authority in Kosovo a few weeks ago, and now he winds up dead. Maybe tin foil hat, maybe not.

I have seen the comments about challenging NATO authority and it strikes me as a lot of hoo-ha. Which NATO authority? That of France's vision? That of the US's vision? For all intents and purposes, NATO no longer has a common strategic vision that any country could oppose.
