My response to Mr. Sanders who wrote, "Kosovo: Our forgotten conflict. (Stella)

To all,

 

This is my response to Mr. Sander's Kosovo: Our forgotten conflict.

 

"Slobodan Milosovic and his Christian Serbian cohorts instigated most of this ethnic cleansing – hardly what Jesus had in mind while hanging on a cross."

I do not expect to hear anything from The El Paso Southwest Senior nor from Mr. Sanders.

Thank you.

Letter/Opinion to the Editor(s)

 

12 August 2012

 

The following Letter/Opinion is addressed to Mr. Sanders and your readers,

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Dear Mr.. Sanders,

 

I just read your "Kosovo: Our forgotten conflict," of 30 July. As the wife of a career military officer, I can appreciate your attempt to tell of the complex problems faced my our military in carrying out our nation's policies. No, Mr. Sanders, Kosovo is not a foregotten conflict for those of us who agonize every day at the injustice perpetrated against the Serbian people.  Although I am not Serbian, I have followed and written about the tragic events in Kosovo in one of the most disgraceful periods in American history brought on by a president, William Jefferson Clinton, who embarrassed our country with his immoral peccadilloes.  Clinton needed to take America's mind off his affair with a woman young enough to be his daughter. What better way than to foment a nasty civil war and at the same time appease the Muslim world by siding with the Bosnian/Kosovo Muslims against the Christian Serbs?

 

If Slobo and his "Christian" Serbian cohorts (written as though "Christian" is a dirty word,)  were responsible for instigating most of the ethnic cleansing, then please answer the question:  "If the Serbs ethnically cleansed Kosovo Albanians, as has been claimed, then why are the Kosovo Albanians over 90 percent of the population and the Serbs, who were once the majority in Kosovo, their Jerusalem, fewer than 10 percent?"  

 

Furthermore, you left a little bit of history out of your Kosovo commentary.

 

You wrote:  "Muslims in Kosovo are not radical Islamists, though radical terrorist do make sojourns into the area to recruit and rev up support for the movement. "  Nowhere in your article do you identify the "radical terrorist" as the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), an army that was described by Special Envoy Robert Gelbard as "I know a terrorist when I see one and these men are terrorists," an army that was trained in bin Laden's terrorist camps, but then perhaps you don't consider the KLA as an army that is dealing in sex slavery, prostitution, murder, kidnapping and drugs as not being terrorists..

 

You also wrote: "The mission seems to be threefold. The peacekeeping forces try to prevent "Christian" Serbs crossing south of the Ibar River and harassing the Muslims in Kosovo.  Harassing the Muslims? Were they to do nothing when Serbian priests were beaten and murdered and Serbian nuns raped, when little old Serbian ladies were especially targeted by being drowned (in bathtubs) by Albanian mobs or when Albanian mobs broke down a gate before shooting the elderly Serbian grandmother twice through the chest?  "They then threw her body on to a dung heap and covered it with hay." 

 

At one time there were 80,000 Serbs who lived in Pristina.  Today, according to NATO Major General William Nash,  there are fewer than 200 Serbs living in Pristina, mostly elderly living in two building complexes too terrified to go out to look for food without being escorted by NATO troops for fear of being beaten or killed by the "Muslim" Albanian mob. 

 

You mention Kosovo as meaning "black birds."  Are you even familiar with the Battle of Kosovo in 1389 when 72,000 "Christian" Serbs donned their finest, after being blessed, to face their traditional Islamic enemy, the Turks,  to protect their "Christian" Kosovo?  Should this not tell you that the Serbs were in Kosovo long before the Albanians crossed over illegally into Kosovo and that American foreign policy ceded Serbia's Kosovo to a bunch of Albanians thieves who had stolen their land?

 

Oddly enough, nowhere do you mention the fact that the PM of Kosovo, Hashim Thaci has been implicated (by former Chief Prosecutor of ICTY Carla del Ponte - hardly a friend of the Serbs) of harvesting the body parts of young Serbian soldiers.  As del Ponte writes in her book, "The Hunt: Me and War Criminals,"  that "The victims, deprived of a kidney, were then locked up again, inside the barracks, until the moment they were killed for other vital organs. In this way, the other prisoners were aware of the fate that awaited them, and according to the source, pleaded, terrified, to be killed immediately,"  Is this not horrific enough for you or did  the horror just slip your mind because it wasn't important enough. 

 

If "troops are also responsible for protecting Christian holy sites in the Muslim territory," they haven't done such a good job considering over 200 churches, some going back to the14th century  have been destroyed, and as journalist Robert Fisk wrote in 1999, 'Nato turns a blind eye as scores of ancient Christian churches are reduced to rubble." Many of those churches had survived a 500 years of Ottoman Turkish occupation

 

I could give you example after example regarding the lies that have been told by the pro-Bosnia/Kosovo media to make sure that the Serbs were the bad guys and the Kosovo Albanians mobs were the good guys, such as the Trepca mine massacre, accusing the Serbs of killing 700 Kosovo Albanians in 1999, cutting their bodies up and grinding them into little pieces and then throwing them down the mine shaft - and guess what!  Daniel Pearl (who gave his life for the truth) exposed the report in The Wall Street Journal as being a hoax!  Imagine that!  But frankly, I doubt it would make any difference because you, as so many others lifke you, have made up your minds that it was Slobo who was the instigator of the whole bloody mess in Kosovo -   This charge reminds me of when columnist Don Feder wrote in his "West Haunted by Balkan Blunder," that "Slobodan Milosevic has been charged with complicity to commit genocide and crimes against humanity.  Before the travesty is over, he will doubtless be convicted of running the rail line to Auschwitz." 

 

You wrote:  "Slobodan Milosovic [sic] and his Christian Serbian cohorts instigated most of this ethnic cleansing – hardly what Jesus had in mind while hanging on a cross." A disgraceful and ugly reference to Jesus hanging on a cross and to the "Christian" Serbs.  

 

Furthermore, Mr. Sanders, for someone who thinks he knows so much about Slobodan, you could have at least spelled his name correctly.

 

Finally, Sir, you refer to "radical Islamists."  What is a "non-radical" Islamist?  I urge you to learn more about the Koran, Mohammed and the true nature of Islam.  Robert Spencer's book, "The Truth About Mohammed: Founder of the Worlds Most Intolerant Religion." is a good place to start.
