#1 "But there are limits to what the Orthodox Christian world will tolerate"

Not so far, unfortunately.

#2 Best thing I read all week. I will convert to whatever branch of Christianity is prepared to engage in a Crusade. Ethiopian, Serbian, etc. It's all good.

#3 Contrary to American propaganda at the time, no massacres had occurred;
Big claims should be accompanied by sources, or evidence and I believe that's a pretty freaking big claim.

Having said that after all the moral and physical support the Kosovo muslims have provided during the War on Terror I don't think they should count on Western help a second time. We should have pulled our troops out of the region on Sept 12 anyway. Let the Europeans handle it.

#4 To be honest I always felt Bush Sr/Clinton screwed the pooch on the whole Balkans thing. At the time you've got Russian troops in East Germany and a Russia without the money to pull them back immediately. You've got Russia trying to act like a big power as they slid into the third world. You've got a peacekeeping problem where one side cannot trust anyone in the world but Russia.

The US should have paid to move the Russian troops into the Balkans, painted their helmets blue, and made sure the world watched carefully so they could have their pride and not look the other way on Serbian atrocities. Should have made Russia an ally instead of sticking a thumb in their eye.

No modern people have proven a greater inconvenience than the Serbs.

Yes, and thanks again for sparking off World War I, guys. I know they're bummed they couldn't spark off World War III somewhere in the remains of the former Yugoslavia, but thanks for trying, anyway.
