O/T Kosovo ... Don't let fear blind you to what is right. On the eve of WWII, this country was still mired in depression. National hero Charles Lindbergh was preaching that England was a lost cause, and that the U.S. could never defeat the Axis powers. On the eve of the Korean war, China was rattling sabers, Russia was threatening WW111. Had we not overcome our fears and acted with courage and faith, you would not be living in a free land today (and making big profits in the stock market!). There would be no South Korea, only a despotic, poverty-wracked Korea. Look into the miserable faces of the Kosovo refugees, see their pain and tears. Unless you truly believe that they should be abandoned to their fate so that we can remain safe and comfortable, keep your faith that doing what your heart tells you is the right thing is always the correct choice. (Yes, I won't have to go there personally. I did have to go in the Korean war -- without hesitation).
