Our bombing tactics and invasion have finally paid off. We have a free and independent nation that loves us

In an outpouring of adulation for the United States, the architect of NATO’s 1999 bombing campaign against Serbian forces under President Slobodan Milosevic, revelers unfurled giant American flags, carried posters of former President Bill Clinton and chanted, “Thank you, U.S.A.” and “God bless America.”

Oops! That's Albania. Wrong war, wrong president.

If I didn't have anything else to do today, I'd just sit here and try to figure out what the point is.

Grafs like "Kosovo, a desperately poor, predominantly Muslim landlocked territory of two million, has been a United Nations protectorate since 1999, policed by 16,000 NATO troops. Its unemployment rate is about 60 percent and average monthly wage is $250,"

and

"Electricity is so undependable that lights go out in the capital several times a day. Corruption is rife and human trafficking threatens to entrench a lawless state on Europe’s doorstep" are sending mixed messages.

Then you read that "NATO’s secretary general, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, said the alliance would respond 'swiftly and firmly against anyone who might resort to violence,'" you have to wonder about the UN's way of doing things.

Make a difference. Go out and help your community with all your concern. Your world view ain't doing a bit a difference.
