Ron, Talking of ''revenge'', I can tell you that, back in 1945, 1946 and 1947 there has been A LOT OF REVENGE throughout Europe as French résistants were running after Vichy collaborators, or as Italian communists were running after Mussolinist militiamen, or as Flemish partisans were running after Nazi collaborators... The lucky ones who escaped this repression are still living today somewhere in Urugay, Paraguay, Argentina, or South Africa --that's why you've got so many Mullers and Stroessners out there! Those were the years during which it wasn't uncommon to see bald women in the streets --that's how people used to tag women who shopped around with German soldiers during the occupation. Not to speak of the thousands of alleged collaborators who were swiftly sent to their maker (after a ''fair trial'', of course). Now, tell me about Albanian repression! LOL!

Ron, The problem here is just like any part of the world where strong ethnic cultures live side by side but never integrate. It could be Northern Ireland, Palestine, South Africa, or Kosovo. One day it will be Southern California, based upon the demographic data I have seen. In 1950, Kosovo was about 55% Serb, 45% Albanian. Now it is 5% Serb, 5% Nato "peacekeeper", and 90% Abanian. Mark my words, one day we will be fighting this same fight. North Mexico was "ethnically cleansed" by the Texans, and one day the favor will be returned. As for the KLA, it seems that they are just as evil as the Serbs. Two wrongs never made a right, except when Bill Clinton was President. Clinton is a moron. His foreign policy is a patchwork of disasters. This one will be no different. Just watch. -John
