Kosovo Polje

This week sees more absurdity in the management of the american empire. An independent Albanian Kosovo. See Balkan Analysis or this Counterpunch article or, for less nuanced views, some Serb Blog or view the many YouTube Kosovo videos and you'll see what a disaster this will be. Here is a Diana Johnstone article on Counterpunch on the subject as well.

This battle is between the Orthodox and Western Churches. All the Eastern tradition countries are opposed to this wacky US/British idea. The Roman and Protestant countries are still trying to dismantle Constantinople. Actually it was after the Saxons took over the Bishopric of Rome that they started to forbid Liturgy in the people's language.

I had never heard of Camp Bondsteel before this week. Is it an Iraqi style monster base for the future of the empire in Eastern Evropa and the middle east? I dunno, but they sure wanted to destroy Jugoslavia and hand it to the Nazi's. Like the Croatian nazi's and the Albanian Nazi's. Slovenes cannot be tarred with that I suppose, they just wanted to re-join Austria-Hungary.

That crazy John Bolton who tried to dismantle the U.N. is opposed to Kosovo even. He may have gotten an excessively bad rap in that UN deal; trying to shake up a bureaucracy steps on lots of toes.

I got turned off Counterpunch after they jumped on the Aristide bandwagon in 2003-04. For someone who was there, and thinking, the picture was a little different. Glad to see they are on Yugoslavia's side here tho.
