How NATO troops could have stood their and allowed 1,300 plus Serbs and an unknown number of Turks, Gypsies and moderate Albanians to be killed is beyond me.

It builds a passionate unending anger in me.

The important thing to remember is how the US and European public were force fed, and swallowed, many lies about the recent ethnic wars involving Islamic militants, and took the wrong side. Let us never be so foolish again...

Anything for our muslim buddies... no problem.

Funny how they are so consistant. THEY commit the atrocities, then accuse their enemies of doing it to them.. . and the UN says, Must be true, islamic radicals would never lie....

I feel exactly the same and just wonder why so many people's empathy is 'ethnic-specific'.

The 1,300 number is the missing, some of whom are now being converted, one-by-one, to being declared dead as the bodies are identified. The number of known and declared dead is "around 900" - and I believe that is only Serbs and not Roma, Slavic Muslims, etc. I know a Czech man was killed for his apartment after the war by Albanians and I read about the murder of a Croat farmer shortly after KFOR set up in the province...

http://www.decani.yunet.com/default2.html :

Since the end of war around 900 Serbs have been killed, more than 1200 have been kidnapped or taken to UCK run illegal prisons, thousands of Serb homes were set on fire, at least 100 churches have been destroyed or seriously damaged. Around 200.000 non -Albanin population had to leave the province because to be a Serb in Kosovo or speak Serbian language in the street today is enough to be killed or abducted.
