You have some sort of bizarre belief that the leaders of the United States are going to be so stupid that they're going to keep sinking tons of money into a tiny province half way around the world that has zero national interest to the United States for hundreds of years to come.

How long do you think the American people are going to put up with such a terrible waste of their hard earned money? Do you really believe the American people are so stupid that they'd continue to support scum bag terrorists like the KLA for hundreds of years? That's really selling our people short. I think the American people are much smarter than what you're giving them credit for. They won't tolerate this sort of completely idiotic foreign policy forever.

Eventually American forces are going to get sick of sinking more money into the money pit that is Kosovo, and they're going to leave. Americans are not stupid. They'll eventually figure out the truth and leave Kosovo to its rightful owners - The Serbs.

Assuming America and its citizens would tolerate the US occupying another country for hundreds of years that is of no strategic interest to it, is a very thinly veiled insult towards all Americans.

You really need to watch the video that this is linked at the top of this thread. After all, it is the subject of the thread.

The U.S. would have to go into a period of isolationism for that to happen. Serbia is completely hamstrung over Kosovo and will be even more so in the future. The U.N. isn’t going to abandon it and the U.S. certainly isn’t going to pull out of the U.N. NATO as an organisation isn’t going anywhere, despite all the doomsayers wanting it to break up and fail.

The situation will still be the same in years to come. Any military move on Serbia’s part, even in the future, is simply going to turn it back into a pariah state. It won’t be long until Serbia is a member of the European Union and in years to come Serbia will probably be a fully fledged NATO member.
