But notice... no one mentions the Albanians...!

Consider - at the height of the bombing, with every
media source in Britain eager to portray ALL Serbs
as baby-eating monsters, any motive to attract yet
further odium on themselves by assassinating such
a popular media figure as Jill Dando would have
been insanely counter-productive from Belgrade's
point of view... While the incentive for Albanians
to do the job and blame the killing on the already
maligned Serbs must have been enormously tempting...

What's more - IF the British police had been able
to pin this on the Serbs... you can bet your boots
they, and the anti-Serbs British media, would have
done so, gratefully, long before now. Whereas...
for exactly the same reasons but in reverse, any
Albanian culpability would still, even today, be
extremely embarrassing for any NATO-supporting
Western establishment striving to portray Albanians
as "good-guy - victims"... worth bombing all those
"nasty - bad-guy" Serbs for...!

Dando <<...>>  bullet's 'Serbian markings'

by Standard Reporter
The bullet used to shoot Jill Dando could have come from Yugoslavia, a
firearms expert told the Old Bailey today.
Peter Mead, a specialist in forensic ballistics, said the markings on the
round which killed the 37-year-old TV presenter match those used in the
former Soviet Union and East European countries.
His evidence supports defence QC Michael Mansfield's theory that the
Crimewatch host was executed by a Serbian hitman.
Stab-like "crimping" marks around the top of the bullet casing are used by
the Yugoslav military to ensure the round is securely held, Mr Mead said. He
told jurors: "This is most common in ammunition made by the Soviet Union,
the eastern bloc and Yugoslavia because of the environment of the gun's use.

"The Soviet Union, for example, had vast resources of manpower and their
tactical philosophy was to have a lot of men for weapons with a lot of
rounds, enabling them to fire fully-automatic bursts.
"If the bullet is not secured in its casing it either won't feed properly or
it will get jammed in the magazine."
Mr Mansfield claims that Barry George, 41, did not shoot Miss Dando dead on
the doorstep of her home in Gowan Avenue, Fulham, on 26 April 1999, but that
Serbian terrorists were responsible.
Mr Mansfield told jurors it was a "professional" and "carefully planned"
killing in revenge for the Nato bombing of a Belgrade television station in
which 17 people were killed a week before Miss Dando's murder. The BBC TV
presenter had also broadcast an appeal on behalf of Kosovar refugees, the
court heard.
George, of Crookham Road, Fulham, denies murdering Miss Dando. The trial
continues.
