This is interesting, but in a way, not decisive. Was 11000 the original figure ? If not, do you remember the original one ?

(In principle, a "humanitarian war" could be justified with three humans killed at three events: one may be a mistake, the second one a misunderstanding, but the third one makes a system...)

Regards, MNI.

George,

The mysterious number of dead Albanians in Kosovo that
failed to materialize comes as no surprise. The war
was run on hype. The fact that General Wesley Clark
was willing to start WWIII just because the Russians
stole his limelight is only one symptom of the disease.

Today in the LA Times they had a front page article on
the number of "revenge killings". Note that they do not
use the phrase "ethnic cleansing". One incident out of
many that occured in Pristina on Monday, was an 80 year
old Serb woman who had her head held under water in her
bathtub untill she drowned. An Albanian couple moved
into her apartment a few hours after she was dead. There
are only about 27,000 Serbs, Gypsies, and Montenegrans
living in Kosovo still. It should not take the KLA long
to finish them off. Too bad General Wesley Clark won't
be around for the ticker tape parade down the main street
of Pristina after the last Serb is dead.
