Bush and Clinton: no difference: 
War on Iraq & Serbia: no difference...


The US ambassador in Belgrade can move across the street, into the bombed
out shell of the Ministry of Defense building in 78 days of bombing.

Let him (or her) sleep under one of the bombed out bridges, or in the cellar
of the Ob_Gyn hospital, which Clinton bombed while Serb mothers were giving
birth and Monica was  interning.

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) - Serb rioters broke into the
<http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22U.S.+Embassy%22&sid=breitbart.com> U.S.
Embassy Thursday and set fire to an office after a massive protest against
Kosovo's independence that drew an estimated 150,000 people. 

Masked attackers broke into the building, which has been closed this week,
and tried to throw furniture from an office. A blaze broke out inside one of
the offices and parts of the facade also caught fire. 

Authorities drove armored jeeps down the street and fired tear gas to clear
the crowd. The protesters dispersed into
<http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22side+streets%22&sid=breitbart.com> side
streets where they continued clashing with authorities. 

The neighboring Croatian Embassy also was attacked by the same group of
protesters. 

In Washington, State Department spokesman Sean McCormack strongly urged the

Serbian government to protect the U.S. Embassy. He said the
<http://search.breitbart.com/q?s=%22U.S.+ambassador%22&sid=breitbart.com>
U.S. ambassador was at his home and was in contact with U.S. officials. 

More than a dozen nations have recognized Kosovo's declaration of
independence on Sunday, including the United States, Britain, France and
Germany. 

But the declaration by Kosovo's ethnic Albanian leadership has been rejected
by Serbia's government and the ethnic Serbians who populate

northern Kosovo. Russia, China and numerous other nations have also
condemned the declaration, saying it sets a precedent that separatist groups
around the world will seek to emulate. 

Kosovo, which is 90 percent ethnic Albanian, has not been under Belgrade's
control since 1999, when NATO launched airstrikes to halt a Serbian
crackdown on ethnic Albanian separatists. A

mission has governed Kosovo since, with more than 16,000 NATO troops and
KFOR, a multiethnic force, policing the province. 

But Serbia—and Kosovo's Serbs, who make up less than 10 percent of Kosovo's
population—refuse to give up Kosovo, a territory considered the ancient
cradle of Serbs' state and religion. 

Earlier Thursday, police estimated that about 150,000 people had attended a
rally in the Serbian capital. The crowd waved Serbian flags and carried
signs reading "Stop USA terror." One group set fire to a red-and-black
Albanian flag.
