President Clinton was not part of the New York Post poll of the 25 most evil people of the past 1,000 years, but that didn't stop 1,625 readers from giving him the write-in vote that earned him second place on the list. He lost first place to Adolf Hitler by 39 votes. Hillary Rodham Clinton wasn't part of the poll either, but she pulled in 765 votes to earn 6th place on the list. The poll was conducted on the newspaper's website from Sept. 30 to Nov. 1. It asked people to select 10 candidates from their list, or write ...

15 THINGS THAT DEMOCRATS MUST BELIEVE IN 1. You must believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of funding. 2. You must believe that the same overpaid public school teacher, who can't teach 4th graders how to read, is qualified to teach those same kids about sex. 3. You must believe that trial lawyers are "selfless heroes" and doctors are "overpaid". 4. You must believe that guns, in the hands of law-abiding Americans, are more of a threat, than nuclear weapons in the hands of the Red Chinese. 5. You must believe that global temperatures are less affected ...

MOMCILO DJUJIC, SERBIAN PRIEST AND WARRIOR, DIES AT 92 By DAVID BINDER BC-OBIT-DJUJIC--NYT(rk) c.1999 N.Y. Times News Service Momcilo Djujic, a Serbian warrior-priest who fought as a Chetnik commander in epic World War II battles in Yugoslavia, died Saturday at a hospice in San Diego. He was 92. Djujic, who lived in San Marcos, Calif., was in the view of some Serbs the last great "Vojvoda," the designation in Serbia for a military commander distinguished by bravery, devotion to the Orthodox Church and loyalty to the now-exiled monarchy. The title of "Vojvoda" was conferred on Djujic in June 1942, by ...

The majority of the people support President Milosevic, that's the way it was, that's the way it will be. —Local official of Socialist Party of Serbia (Milosevic's party) This is a relatively successful government. We have good results, we made Serbia politically, economically and socially stable. We are the most disciplined government in the history of Serbia. —Vojislav Seselj, president of the ultra-nationalist Serbian Radical Party I'm deeply touched by how quickly life is coming back to normal here. —Jorma Kinski, former chief of EU monitoring mission, during his visit to Kosovo The United States' presence is essential in ...

From Jerusalem, the holy city, Flying came a swift grey bird, a falcon, And he carried in his beak a swallow. But behold and see! ‘Tis not a falcon, ‘Tis the holy man of God. Elias, And he does not bear with him a swallow, But a letter from God’s Holy Mother. Lo, he bears the letter to Kosovo, Drops it on the Tsar’s knees from the heavens, And thus speaks the letter to the monarch: ‘Tsar Lazar, thou Prince of noble lineage, What wilt thou now choose to be thy kingdom? Say, dost thou desire a heav’nly kingdom, ...

KLA grabs power and property in Kosovo Rebels capitalize on postwar disorder July 29, 1999 PRISTINA, Yugoslavia -- The Kosovo Liberation Army has taken sweeping political control in Kosovo, establishing a network of self-appointed ministries and local councils, seizing businesses and apartments, and collecting taxes and customs payments in the absence of a strong international police presence. Despite a peace agreement that calls for an administration appointed by the United Nations and the fact that the ethnic Albanian militants have no legal standing, they have created a fait accompli. These days they talk not of ceding power to the United ...

Another honor for Jane Fonda: At its national convention in Washington, DC, next week, the American Association of University Women will bestow its new Speaking Out for Justice Award on the famous actress and aerobics queen. She is being hailed, the AAUW says, as "a committed activist who champions the environment, human rights, and the empowerment of women and girls." To judge from the AAUW's two-page biography of its honoree, Fonda has also championed anti-gang efforts in California, rural villagers in Tanzania, student theatrical work in Georgia, and open-space preservation in Montana. The bio mentions the Oscar she won for ...

ORAHOVAC, Yugoslavia (AP) - As NATO Gen. Wesley Clark assured a group of ethnic Albanians that they were now safe, smoke billowed Tuesday on the outskirts of this western Kosovo town. Serbs said it came from a Serb house set ablaze in a reprisal attack by ethnic Albanians. "Our houses are burning and (NATO) does nothing. The Albanians are kidnapping and killing us, and they don't react," said Novica Ulamovic, a 40-year-old resident of the town's Serb quarter, which has become a ghetto of fear."Nobody cares about us," said another Serb resident, 61-year-old Zora Radovanovic. Five weeks after NATO troops ...

Milosevic Plots His Next War Slobodan Milosevic is man-ouevering to begin another war - this time against the neighbouring pro-Western republic of Montenegro. The Serbian president has begun recruiting an armed police force which Montenegrin leaders fear he will use as a fifth column inside their country, the only Yugoslav republic that has not left the Serb-dominated federation. BY STEVE CRAWSHAW IN PODGORICA, MONTENEGRO The result could unleash a bloody civil war as a diversion from Milosevic's own domestic troubles. Yesterday Montenegro's Foreign Minister, Branko Perovic, described the Serbs' move as "illegal" and "unconstitutional". "It's a provocation," he told The ...

A Quagmire And A Vision THE HEADLINE ON THE FRONT PAGE of the San Francisco Chronicle told the whole ugly story: "Kosovo Albanians Pillage Serb Town." The subtitle said: "Mentally Ill Woman Allegedly Raped, Killed." Another aspect of our Balkan involvement was told by a headline on the front page of the New York Times: "Damage to Serb Military Less Than Expected." Despite the political spin coming out of Washington, this Balkan war is not about the good guys versus the bad guys, and our intervention has done less damage to Milosevic's military forces than to a lot of innocent ...

To: William Jefferson Clinton President of the United States of America 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C. March 23, 1999 Dear Mr. President, Again I write to you as a Christian and as an American. Sir, we are poised on the brink of disaster, a disaster that is manifold in its dimensions and character. As I expressed to you in my previous letter this imminent and unprovoked attack against Yugoslavia is immoral. Even the trepidation alone that we have instilled in the people of Yugoslavia is a horror. The fact that this is exactly one of our intentions is offensive. Legally ...

The Serb coroner held out the skull to Radojka Todorovic. "This is your son's head," he said. "Can you not see the incision over where the right ear was? That was the operation he had on his ear. This is your boy." Radojka raised both her arms, looked at the skull and then down at the terrible remains at her feet. There was a rib cage partly covered by a rotted T-shirt, a mouldy pair of trousers and a pile of dark flesh. It had lain in the mass grave at Glamoc for almost a year. But Radojka Todorovic ignored ...

"And so was the Serbian prince Lazar killed, and the whole of his army, too, seventy seven thousand of them." None of the Christian peoples has in its history what the Serbian people have in Kosovo. Some sixty years after the Battle of Kosovo, Constantinople fell, the capital of Eastern Christianity. The Christian Emperor, of Serbian blood and origin by one of his parents, was killed. It could be said that that disaster was like Kosovo. And it might also be said that it was an event even greater than Kosovo. God forbid! In the field of Kosovo the Christian ...
