5-0 out of 5 stars The Make-A-War Kit
The Kosovo war is becoming more and more significant, especially in a post 9/11 world.It seems like Bill Clinton mostly got away with his own war of aggression, which was as manufactured a war as the recent one in Iraq.1-0 out of 5 stars The Kosovo conflict was not invented by CNN
US readers seem to believe that the conflicts in Yugoslavia started in the 'nineties. As a matter of fact, they are the results of conflicts during the Ottoman empire, from the 15th to the 20th century. Kosova is only one part of it. The Serbian army took Kosova by force in 1913. Most of the time from that year, the Albanian population in Kosova has been encouraged by force, by money or by religion to move out. 4-0 out of 5 stars The stuff they didn't want us to know
I would probably give this book 4 and 1/2 stars.The only thing that I found unappealing about the book was a long, dry discussion the the Presidential War Powers Act about half way into the book but once I got around that I was pleased with the treatment of the topic.The book took a look at many of the issues that were avoided or "spun" by the US media to paint the war as a humanitarian triumph when in reality it was a humanitarian tragedy that actually reversed the ethnic cleansing (Serbs forcibly removed by Albanians from their homes) and all done with US and NATO approval.The book also predicted that the support of the Kosovar Albanians during the war would fuel Albanian irridentism which would spill into Macedonia (which occured last year) and destabilize the whole region. This is a lesson on how NOT to conduct foreign diplomacy.The thing I found very revealing was the number of events leading up to, during, and after the war that, I remember, described by the Clinton, Albright, and the Western media in a certain way that in actuality happened differently and even some things that were never reported.An example was the bombing of bridges and power plants in Belgrade that did more to harm civilians than the Serbian military.Not only Serbia but a number of countries in eastern Europe were affected economically due to the blocking of Danube by the collapsed bridges.River commerce on the Danube just opened this year, almost 3 years later.The book also took a critical look at the US's foreign policy double standard: touting human rights as a reason for intervention but only when it serves US interests (read why not intervene in Rwanda, East Timor, etc.) or intervene except when the human rights abuses are commited by allies (i.e Turkey). ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Artistic Treasures Endangered
To the "reader from New York": Take care of the ignorance and racism you obvioiusly show in your review. This is a review about a book, not what you ignorantly think about a people. It's comments like these that led to the wave of violence that swept over the Kosovo countryside last week in another wave of ethnic cleansing. Only this time the aggressors were the Albanians and the Serbs were the victims. As a result of this attempt at stamping out all signs of Serbian society, even its medieval artistic symbols, the churches, were targeted. This is important to mention here because one of the churches photographed and described in this book is the Church of the Mother of God, Bogoroditse Ljeskva in Prizren, which dates back to the 14th century. It was tragically destroyed in a wave of violence. Sadly, this book shows what once was, and no longer is. 1-0 out of 5 stars Not worth a title
Not worth a word..5-0 out of 5 stars It will soon all be history!
What a great book in regards to showing what historic significance Kosovo & Metohija has to the Serbian nation.The illustrations are simply breathtaking and tempts one to go there and view the beauty in person (ifit were not for the violence).The book will soon be a book on history asit seems that every day another church or monastery is blown away by theAlbanian population while the West sanctifies their actions. Great book andits a shame that we can't go to Kosovo and Metohija and view it in person! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars False False False
Went throught it, very poorly written from a pro-albanian perspective. Now if you go to a search Engine and put in Greater Albania, you'll get journalists reporting facts and Profesors political analytical points of views on facts that will give you a much more professional insight into the subject. Just don't bother buying this, its only worth burning it in the fireplace to keep warm.

1-0 out of 5 stars more to a book thana title
Just a poorly written book with some good facts, but not put together well.It felt after a while that the author was just writing about how he was invloved and really liked it.I think some points should have been more stressed.The relationship between Kosovars and Albania Albanians on a lower level than politicians.The shock of Kosovars seeing the poverty in Albania and the anger towards them from their kin in that poor country.Writing about politicians and what they did is just documenting what was for public consumption.And to the reviewer before me.. if this was propganda, then it was very poor propaganda.A greater Albania or any Country in the Balkans can make sense on paper, but reality can be a bitch.So read it with a beer and a grain of salt.. step away and have another beer.Nothing special here.

3-0 out of 5 stars Better for Mira than for Slobo.Not as biased as the media, but it's still there
I found the first few chapters of this book to be the most interesting.They were the only ones where you seem to dip into Slobo's personal life.Descriptions of his home life, his meeting with Mira [they met at 15 and stayed together until his death at 65] and his rise through to positions of power are all very interesting.It's odd how he seems to have been a fairly normal person in his pre-politician years.
5-0 out of 5 stars A deep understanding of the past and future
The disintegration of Yugoslavia into a horrible series of wars and battles that pitted formerly peaceful neighbors against each other is a very important part of modern European history. It tested the relationship between America and Europe on all levels. And it was where the strengths and weaknesses of the NATO alliance have been most clearly illustrated.Read more
