#1 This will be Spain and France in a decade if they do not come to their senses in time.

#2 Pretty horrifying, what's going on.

All that culture and history in flames.

And what little you here in the mainstream media will probably not mention it's Islam -v- Christianity.

#4 I agree with OldSpook and growler. Didn't understand your comment, Shipman.

The Albanian's favorite things to attack seem to be the churches and christian cemetaries. Hundreds of centuries-old churches and monesteries destroyed and desecrated (I discovered this poking around on Kosovo.com). Reminds me of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Not much news coverage, but the Moslems totally trashed it. Sick stuff. Usting the nave as a toilet, etc.

The Molsems seem to like "soft" targets. Places unfamiliar to the West. "Serbia? Sudan? Where's them thar places?" They really get away with a lot in the more unknown areas. I think they know better than to go for popular spots--at least for now. Presently it seems that hey're trying to garner liberal/left POLITICAL support. "Heck, a train , a hotel, a couple of towers? No big. We (they) deserved it anyway. " (liberal thinking)

But, no doubt, the Moslems WILL become bolder over time, and then, who knows? But, "oh gosh, oh golly," by then it will be too late. The time to act is now. Many thanks to those who are fighting the WOT. Us regular folk need to work to defeat Kerry.

#5 This is complete and total Bullshit. Where the hell is the United Nations -- oh they put their tails between their legs and ran like the little chickenshits they are.

And Europe (and SKerry) want the UN in Iraq? Where has the United Nations *ever* solved anything?

I agree with OldSpook - this is what will happen in Span and France in a few years and is just beginning.

Too bad this won't be shown on the media. Gotta have room for 'American Idol' ya know! Makes me sick.

Face it folks this is a World War we have here. Not a little skirmish or regional 'confict' or a 'police action' but World War III - not with nukes (yet -- thank God) but with terrorism and murder and entirely unlike the others. It is a worldwide conflict in asia, Middle East, Europe, Africa, and both Americas.

#6 More of the Clinton legacy...
Military intervention is ok if it supports the enemies of civilization.

#7 Thanks Atomic Conspiracy. I'm glad somebody finally said it. The Moslems have had and still have their sites set on Eastern Europe, and most especially wanted to crush Orthodox Serbia. Bill simply obliged them. Some of the other E. European countries are a lot more favorable to the Moslems, and would look the other way at such encroachments. (And did.) Although there's plenty of blame to go around regarding war "atrocities," it's sad for the innocents on both sides. However, I happen to think there was a lot of bullsh-t reporting regarding the Serbs during that watch. I'm not quite sure if they were as bad as they were made out to be. Does anyone on Rantburg know first-hand?

CrazyFool: Evidently, the UN forces looked the other way during the last couple of years as Albanians trashed monastery after monastery AFTER the cease-fire.

#8 ex-lib, I don't think they've ever found the "mass graves" the "ethnic Albanians" said were there or that evidence has been found of numerous Serbian "massacres."
This Paleos have tried this "massacre" claim against the Israelis several times and of course, the Afghanis tried to say it about U.S. soldiers in Operation Enduring Freedom.
It's an old, old trick that the civilized world is getting wise to.
