Check me if I am wrong, but didn’t Kosovo recently hold elections that will install a Mafia Styled Thug who’s into prostitution and drugs as it’s leader?

"the road seemed open...But the new Bush team hated anything it had inherited from Bill Clinton -- perhaps especially his greatest successes...
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld even sought to pull American troops out of the NATO command in Kosovo, which Secretary of State Colin Powell prevented...
(But Rumsfeld turned)NATO command in Bosnia over to a weak E.U. Force, a terrible mistake."

Summed up:
Clinton, brilliant statesman.
Powell, brilliant statesman.
Rumsfeld, evil conspirator against a (muslim) peaceful balkans (and Bill Clinton)
Bush, his fault.

Holbrooke, simpering piece of clinton trash. Did I mention he must be on drugs?

"But the new Bush team hated anything it had inherited from Bill Clinton -- even (perhaps especially) his greatest successes -- and made no effort to advance policy in Kosovo until 2005 and ignored Bosnia."

Bush didn't "hate it" enough to change course as he should have!

The problem here is not in a lack of follow thorough by Bush, but in the biggest Balkan policy blunder in the last 100 years by Clinton. Problem is that Bush didn't scrap it and start over when he could and should have.

Now NATO has disgraced itself, the EU is only caving to US pressure and will ultimately turn around and blame us when the Balkans goes wrong again (and make no mistake, it WILL go wrong), Russia is using this as reason to face us down --and for once, Russia is standing on solid ground on this because they are right about this and we are dead wrong.

Why in the hell is the US fighting so hard to steal a piece of land that we intend on giving away to people who are not even our friends?

The New World Order operative and slimy rat Holbrooke cares about the fate of muslims in Republika Srpska, but not Serbian Christians in Kosovo. How typical!!!!

And—according to Newsweek, Holbrooke is the “enforcer” on the Hillary clinton campaign!!

I was unfortunate enough to see my first TV add for Hillary Rodham Izetbegovic Khomeini this past weekend, with my Thanksgiving feast not fully digested. I can’t stand the sight of that horrific witch!! I was yelling all sorts of names—all diserved—at the TV screen, including “evil monster” and “witch”.

Fortunately, I was in the right crowd, and my companions were cheering me on. But I—and many others—are going to have a tough time as the campaign season grinds on and on. And we’re ALL going to have a tough time if that evil NWO harpy becomes President!

As for what I think should happen with Kosovo and Srpska, see my tagline. Pray hard for the Serbian Orthodox Christians in the homeland!!!!

Kurti: Bush lies to Kosovo Albanians

27 November 2007 | 14:54 | Source: B92, Tanjug

VIENNA -- The leader of a radical Albanian movement in Kosovo says Hashim Thaci "will not declare independence after Dec. 10".

Albin Kurti, who is heading the Self-Determination Movement also said that U.S. President George Bush "was telling Kosovo Albanians lies."

“Thaci will not hurry that much. Our leadership will not declare independence as long as the international powers do not accept that. And George Bush has lied to the U.S. public so why wouldn't he lie to us,” Kurti said in an interview with the Vienna Die Presse daily.

Kurti is currently under house arrest in Priština after organizing a demostration there in February which left two people dead.

He said that, in his view, the real situation regarding Kosovo was deadlocked, and that there was "a long way to go towards independence."

“Even if the European Union replaces the United Nations, Kosovo would still be controlled by international powers. However, what we need is a true state, with a seat at the United Nations. We want Kosovo to join the EU, and not EU rule over Kosovo,” Kurti said.
