I hope this time we have the good sense to stay out of it and let the chips fall where they may. Last time Russia stayed out of it because they were nearly bankrupt and had a weak leader. Now they are rolling in money, have Putin at the helm and have rebuilt their military. They very well may jump in on the side of the Serbians if the US or Europe attack...

It's situations like this that lead to World Wars...

Love this comment made by Nicholas Burns today. You can see that the Serbs are being offered to appease the muslim world by the US. Doesnt make me proud.

‘During a briefing on Kosovo after its declaration of independence, Under Secretary for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns welcomed the recognition of this step by the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), and hence, by the governments of its member countries. He said: “And we think it is a very positive step that this Muslim state, Muslim majority state, has been created today.”

Will someone tell me why did President Bush take this position? This situation doesn’t make any sense to me at all!

Well, we are already in it as we have military deployed in Kosovo. It would appear war is imminent. It may only be days away. I wonder if we will end up being a major combat force in such a war? Most of the guys in my unit in Germany would probably love to get deployed to Kosovo, because we would get to do something. I don’t think most civilians can appreciate that. Even if you get deployed a few times a year, you still itch to get out of garrison. I’m hoping to get to leave in a few weeks/months to go learn Persian Farsi. Would be a great opportunity...
