way down in Kosovo

Well, it seems Kosovo is 'declaring itself independant' of Serbia today...What a wonderful thing, right?

Who remembers the right wing talk show hosts condemning Clinton for 'aggression' against Serbia against UN doctrine, in the face of 'ethnic cleansing'? I do.

But, as is usually the case, I've actually been there..I sang songs with members of the former Serbian Navy as they were busted down to 'low level deckhands' on the ferries...I've played in Dubrovnik with Croats and Montenegro guitarists.

In short, back then I thought our involvement in thier civil tribal war ( much like Iraq) would come back to bite us in the ass.

This new 'Kosovo' will be the new 'Isreal' in the EU, along with all it's thousand years of internal, infernal hatreds....Much more death is to come.

There were atrocities committed on both sides. The Albanian 'KLA' gave thier children wooden guns, and taught them to hate and 'kill' the Serbs.

The Serbs did the same.

Of course, those on the left that decry 'use of military force' and say 'we should treat these nations as a law enforcement( CIA) problem, rather then a military objective' conveniently forget how Slick Willie bombed the crap out of Serbia against UN orders....And we have stationed 2 battalions there ever since. We 'police' this neighborhood now ( along with the Brits, French, and one UN battalion) and how great is that going to be when the car bombs start?

Who will say 'why did we attack Serbia? They never attacked us!? Shame! "


Breaks my heart to see this land I visited torn apart like this.
