Your comments are a crock. The record of Serb butchery in Kosovo is clear and well documented. I’m no Kosovar apologist, and there’s much going on there that is disturbing. But the proximate cause for NATO intervention was to stop a civilian bloodbath at the hands of the Serbs — and not some vast US-led conspiracy against the poor misunderstood Serbs that some people on this topic delude themselves into believing. Grow up, wise up, and read up about the facts, idiot.

There were no saints in the Balkans, and we should have heeded the words of Bismarck, “The whole of the Balkans is not worth the bones of a single Pomeranian grenadier.”

The only crock here is the baseless propoganda that apologists like you barf out, facts are mere inconveniences.

.
Horse shit!

The only civilians in a blood bath were the legitimate population of kosovo, many of which were gunned down by US aircraft as they fled.

You need the cast iron cataracts blasted out of your eyes. (Idiot)

Today we know what we didn't know then:

1. The Albanians were conducting an insurgency that always had in it's mind to detach Kosovo from Serbia & make it Albanian territory. In that vein, Albanians attacked Serbian police officers and then retreated to their villages and hid behind civilians so that an attack on civilians could be used for propaganda purposes. Typical Muslim guerrilla warfare that even the Palestinians use.

2. "Operation Horseshoe", the supposed "Serbian plan to exterminate and expel the Albanians" was a hoax -- and a hoax so sloppy that they couldn't even get the title of it right -- they used the Croat dialect for the word "Horseshoe", something that no Serb would have ever, ever done. It sounds like a small point, but it's huge. It's as though if England was our enemy and they accused us of producing an inflammatory document that was titled "America's Defence", and used it as an excuse to bomb us.

3. Virtually all of the "Serbian atrocities" (and yes, there were some, meanwhile Albanians were cutting up Serbs and selling their bodyparts, so it wasn't one sided) came AFTER the NATO Bombs began to fall when some Serbs out of frustration with NATO bombing them, took it out on the Albanian population who had invited those bombs. There were also stories of heroism which the media ignored, of Serbs and good-willed Albanians helping each other to survive during the bombing.

3. If you want an atrocity, I'd say that this one ranks right up there, and Serbs didn't do this, Albanians didn't do this, WE (as part of NATO) DID THIS! Little Milica Rakic is considered by the Church to be one of the New Martyrs. Here is her icon:

Milica Rakic can rightfully be considered an early Martyr to the New World Order.

Yes, Commies are brutal scum and will kill to maintain control.

However, it was the Serb CHRISTIANS that have been the victims of the Albanian criminals since the mid-1980’s.

When you support the KLA, you are supporting the Jihadists against the Christian, and that’s exactly what we allowed to happen.

>>>>>>>>>I’m no Kosovar apologist<<<<<<<

Your choice of words tells differently.the use of word "Kosovar" smoked you out. "Kosovar" is Albanian, not English word.

In english, the name of inabitants of geographical locations ending with O is formed by adding suffix "an", "oan" or "onian"

Idahoan, Torontonian, not Idahar and Torontar.

In English, inhabitant of Kosovo is Kosovan, not Kosovar. Regardless of ethnicity.

" The political usage of Albanian term "Kosovar" in English is propaganda vehicle to present Albanians in Kosovo as a distinct ethnic group, which they are not. Kosovo Albanians are minority in Serbia, with domicile country of Albania.

This ploy aims to create an impression that "Kosovars" (i.e. Albanians) as the only legitimate inhabitants of Kosovo and to deny this status to Serbs, Turks, Roma, Croats and others.

The very same ploy as using the term "Palestinian" for Arabs to exclude Jews as the rightful inhabitants of PALESTINE.

This ploy was used to spread fabrications of alleged genocide of "Kosovars" while in reality doing criminal acts that may constitute real genocide against Serbs and Roma.

Show me a person who use the term Kosovar for Albanians and I will show you the person who support this genocidal agenda.
