Dear Serbian-Americans,
As you know, for some time I've been sending you messages warning about the
dangers of radical Islamic violence in Kosovo. Jihad terror in Kosovo is a
mortal danger not only to the Christian Serb community there, but to the
rest of Europe and to America.
Sometimes it seemed our warnings were falling on deaf ears, but that is not
the case. Below is a letter released on 28 September from U.S. Senator Rick
Santorum of Pennsylvania to Bishop Artemije of Kosovo. In it the Senator
commends the Bishop for his reminder that "the defense of freedom, like the
global terror movement itself, is indivisible. In Kosovo, no less than in
the United States or the Middle East, the reality of Islamic fascist
violence must be called by its proper name and opposed in every possible
way."
This is not a Democrat or a Republican issue. It is an issue of national
security and sovereignty. It is the first time any American official, in
either the Legislative or Executive branch, has called the terrorist
violence in Kosovo what it is -- Islamic fascism. It is particularly
significant that this came from Senator Santorum, who is the one who
originated that expression, which now has been picked up by President Bush.
I should note that Bishop Artemije was present at the National Press Club
when Senator Santorum gave his speech in which Islamic fascism was defined
and described.
As you know, Senator Santorum is in a tough reelection race. However much
some of my readers might like his opponent, Mr. Casey, he has not spoken out
in support of the Kosovo Serbs. I think it would be a disaster for the one
member of the Senate who has put his political career on the line to oppose
Islamic radicalism to be defeated. Pennsylvania voters, please join me in
supporting Rick Santorum in his campaign and helping in any way you can.
Please also help get this message around to as many of our fellow
Serbian-Americans.
Zivelo Kosovo! Stella
