Trevor, while I totally agree with all of your statements. . .my congratulations stands to those boys who left their moms to join in the fighting of a holy war that dates back many hundreds of years. . . I doubt if half of them were even aware of the many conflicts and wars over the centuries between the Muslim Albanians and the Pan-Slavic Serbs over who was there first. . . . My use of the word victory was purposely placed within quotation marks for some of the same reasons you cite. . . .and others we may never know.

To Frederick. . you wrote: None the less, I am proud of us. Our predominately Christian country came to the aid of devastated Muslims. I will gladly reach into my pocket for that. The last 2 World Wars began in the Balkans. Perhaps, just perhaps, we avoided the third.

Well said.

OT..trevor, follow the profits and you find the motivation for war, and for those who believe profits are everything, consequenses are meaningless...this is the second time around for the US in the Balkans, last time it was to pick over the spoils of crumbling Turkish empire and secure oil trade routes...history repeats itself
