I'm sure glad former U.S. President, Bill Clinton, ethnically cleansed all those Christians and Serbs out of Kosovo. Ah.....the region is so much better off now.

"U.N. officials say that unless the ethnic strife stops and Serbs such as Kadic stay, this week will have marked the beginning of the end of the Serbian presence in Kosovo, technically a province of the Serb republic. "Tremendous damage has been done by this," said Isabella Karlowicz, the chief U.N. spokeswoman.

On Friday, calm prevailed in most of Kosovo where, in the days and nights before, armed Albanian gangs had torched 110 Serbian houses and 16 Serbian Orthodox churches.

More than 1,000 Serbs took refuge in NATO military bases, in U.N. compounds, with trusted Albanian friends and in the homes of Serbian relatives in regions spared violence. U.N. officials say the Serbs will be returned to their homes or, in the case of those whose houses were burned, given shelter during rebuilding. "We want them to stay in Kosovo," said Mechthild Henneke, a U.N. spokeswoman.

Kadic, a hairdresser, doesn't believe it. "They let it happen," she said of the U.N. and NATO-led forces charged with keeping the peace in Kosovo. "If they wanted us to stay, there would be a lot more Serbs in Kosovo than there are now."

The number of Serbs made refugees by this week's violence is only a fraction of the number of people who fled Kosovo four years ago after NATO airstrikes forced the retreat of Serb forces from the province. NATO acted then to end a mass expulsion of ethnic Albanians at the hands of Serbs. The Serb population in Kosovo is now about 100,000, down from more than 300,000 before 1999."

This may be your most intellectually dishonest post yet JP5. Bill Clinton left office well over 3yrs ago. In the event you have forgotten, either the the current president or the current congress could have made changes in our country's posture in Kosovo.

Do you suppose we will ever see a day here when your posts won't simply be regurgitations of talk radio?

oc

Then he'd have to think for himself....Oh the humanity!!!

He's as big a screwup as Bush, but he didn't screw up as big (as with Iraq).

the Serbians. They totally freaked out and lost all credibility. If they had used their heads, stayed calm, and responsiby fought to consolidate power in their own borders, they would have succeeded.
