"Paging Wesley Clark, paging Wesley Clark. Please pick up the red phone, Mr. Clark!"
After serving a couple weeks in prison for illegal border crossing into Serbia, they were taken out of jail by Serbian officials and shot at close range while their hands were tied behind their back. They were executed in cold blood well after the war was over. That's premeditated murder, Joan. Even when the victims are just Albanians. But apparently in your world, when you add the crimes of leaving America and leaving your mother's house to illegal border crossing, then you deserve to be taken away without a trial or sentence and shot in the back of the head. Is that today's insight on Serbian justice?
There's plenty of reports and photographs of Serb civilians and farmers being executed the same way in Kosovo while KFOR was there in full capacity. Nothing is done to bring the ethnic Albanians to justice for what they've done to Serbs. Even the Albanian who blew up the Serb bus, which killed a 2-year-old Serb boy "escaped" from Bondsteal. No doubt he was released.
You have no moral leg to stand on since Albanians have been able to do the same thing under supervision of US, German, British, etc. troops.
Anyone seeng the photos and capable of using advanced features of Photoshop was screaming "fake" also. "Recon" photos were sloppily done, the shadow lengths were not matching the season and time of the day, and temperature signature was wrong.
The question is: if those were indeed mass graves, why the photos were doctored?
THE HAGUE, April 24 (AFP) - Several photos distributed by NATO and said to show possible mass graves in Kosovo could be fake, the Dutch daily Algemen Dagblad said Saturday.
The paper based its claims on analyses carried out by a map expert specializing in the study of satellite photos, who examined four pictures taken over the Kosovo villages of Pusto Selo and Izbica.
NATO showed two photos of each village. In each case, one of the photos shows the area before the alleged graves were dug and the second, taken several days later, appears to show a number of freshly dug graves. According to the expert, identified only as E. Burie, the most recent photos displayed worrying inconsistencies.
He said that in the second picture of the Pusto Selo village, there is a house which does not feature in the image taken a few days before. He said: "Either the Kosovars had time between the massacres to build a house in a few nights, or the photo has been manipulated." He said the photo of Izbica showing rows of graves had "touch-up work which could only be the result of two different pictures being superimposed."
Burie, who runs a studio in the central Dutch town of Almere specialising in work for the country's top publishers and for military maps, could not be reached for comment.
Italian General Giuseppe Marani, a NATO spokesman, said on April 18 that the alliance had photos of 43 sites in Kosovo which featured "very clear rows of individual tombs facing southeast, that is, towards Mecca."
Serbs digging individual graves pointing toward Mecca?
One needs Florida temperature IQ to believe such bold faced lie.
Hoppy knows who the enemy is but he has chosen to side with them anyway.
"And I have to say this-this has not been observed by anyone so far: I interviewed some of these refugees two days ago. When I interviewed the refugees, I found some things to be tremendously interesting. They all said the same thing: In fact, they didn't have any problems until the bombing started.
I was interviewed by a Tirana TV station, I think it was Tirana [Albania]. The reporter asked me, "What are you Americans going to do about the refugees." I said what do you mean? He said you are the reason they are here. That's what caused the forced exodus.
I have to say one other thing about the refugees. The refugees, in spite of the fact it is a horrible thing what has happened to them, still when you look at themI was shocked to find out that they are very well-off, considering they were refugees. The kids were wearing Nikes and were well-dressed. They have the food they need to eat. So they seem to be in much better shape, certainly much better shape than the refugees in other areas. " "I mention that because it gets it in a context that helps me to understand where we are today. I want to mention I am not saying this as a Republican. I am saying this as a member of the United States Senate and as the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Readiness Subcommittee with a responsibility to tell the truth about what is going on. The American people haven't been hearing the truth."
mark502inf, Your posts are nothing but wishful thinking that the truth will never come out.
Gen. Clark's solution for terrorism?
Salute Terrorists!
1) He was the leader of a small, Eastern European nation instead of a member of the EU "inner ring."
2) He was the leader of such a nation while Bill Clinton was the leader of ours.
In a hundred years, the once great powers of Western Europe may yet rue their treatment of Milosevic and the Serbs as their own nations are overrun. Serbia was always the guardian of Europe's frontier--and she was betrayed by the West just as Constantinople was in the late crusades. What a tragedy.
Help me out here, which one is Hoppy?
