A detailed look at the conflict. The Serbs were hardly "Soldiers for Christ." I swear to God, some of the Serbian defenders sound like apologists for Saddam Hussein ("Where are the bodies?" etc).

Elements of the KLA are also responsible for post-conflict attacks on Serbs, Roma, and other non-Albanians, as well as ethnic Albanian political rivals. Immediately following NATO's arrival in Kosovo, there was widespread and systematic burning and looting of homes belonging to Serbs, Roma, and other minorities and the destruction of Orthodox churches and monasteries. This destruction was combined with harassment and intimidation designed to force people from their homes and communities. By late-2000 more than 210,000 Serbs had fled the province; most of them left in the first six weeks of the NATO deployment. Those who remained were increasingly concentrated in mono-ethnic enclaves, such as northern Mitrovica, Kosovo Polje, or Gracanica.

Thanks. As most of the material appears to be drawn up by the Human Rights Watch group I'll have to find some opinions on the quality of their reporting - how far can I trust this organization? We know that many groups, such as Amnesty International, and others who say that the Guantanamo Bay is akin to the Gulags, are not notorious for the quality or truthfulness of their reporting.

I'm not saying I doubt this source or your point in all of this, just "trust but verify".

There seems to be a significant amount of distortion on this issue, which makes the veracity of the report sources all the more important.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands-Former Serb leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead in his prison cell Saturday, abruptly ending his four-year U.N. war crimes trial for orchestrating a decade of conflict that killed 250,000 people and tore the Yugoslav federation asunder. He was 64.

A leader of beguiling charm and cunning ruthlesness, the man reviled by the United States as "the butcher of the Balkans" was a hero to many Serbs despite losing four wars and impoverishing his people in the 1990s while trying to create a "Greater Serbia" linking Serbia with Serb-dominated areas of Croatia and Bosnia.
Here's hoping this slug is now Stalin's bitch in Hell.

There's not much hope of WestVirginiaRebel ever being a little more open-minded - judging from your blog. Like I said before, Judge, Jury, Hangman.

Pesky little bastards, eh? Asking all those darn questions...

Jeez, what did you expect? If I were accused of genocide, I'd be asking the very same question - WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?

You bin Clinton defenders kind of sound to me like al qaeda apologists.

What precisely would you have had Milosevic ( or any Serb leader ) do in response to jihadists trained and armed by Osama bin Laden, in Albanian terrorist camps, flooding into Serb communities and chopping heads off? Protest march?
