#1 Well, they caught somebody: The United Nations arrested on Tuesday a Serb suspected of killing an Indian officer earlier this month in the first deadly attack on the U.N. police force in Kosovo.
The 21-year-old man was arrested without incident in the village of Slatina, in the area of Northern Mitrovica which is mainly populated by Serbs, the U.N. force said in a statement.

#2 given the mess that kosovo was when the Serbs withdrew,and the political constrainst, I dont see that the UN has done badly in Kosovo. Would you rather that the UN wasnt there, and that Kosovo was strictly a US/UK responsibility?

#3 No, LH, Kosovo is Europe's responsibility. Let phrawnce and Sweden handle it.

#6 Wonder how long it will take our allies, the ~~Texas Oilmen, a wholly owned subsidiary of~~ Saudis, to open up a new, huge Wahhabi(sic) mosque in Tirana and to start sending Jihadis into Kosovo?

#7 LH: the Swedes could take the day shift (9 to 5), and the French could take the nights and weekends. Should work out just fine.
