Most in the KLA are honorable freedom fighters

Robert, you would make an excellent politician (seriously).

"NATO was too late in Devic, another monastery in the hills of central Kosovo. Television images showed shattered icons and bullet shells. ''UCK'' - the Albanian initials for the separatist Kosovo Liberation Army - was scratched into a window. CNN reported that rebels terrorized the monastery's inhabitants, firing guns next to monk's heads and stripping a nun naked."

"VLADOVO, Yugoslavia (AP) - Faced with a band of Kosovo Liberation Army guerrillas refusing to lay down their weapons, the U.S. Marines first tried the force of argument. Then they threatened force of arms.

After several hours of negotiation went nowhere, the Marines arrested the leaders and threatened the rest of the 117 guerrillas with annihilation. They turned in their weapons."

"Only a day after pledging to warehouse their weapons and end their fight, a top Kosovo Liberation Army leader said Tuesday the rebels never agreed to give up their guns and still hope to form an army. There also was evidence the rebels — or their supporters — were continuing to take revenge on Serb civilians. Serb houses burned in the western city of Pec and a Serb power company worker was shot in the capital."
