[ALBSA-Info] Re: ALBSA-Info digest, Vol 1 #296 - 5 msgs

[A. Springhetti]

It is just a personal observation, but many of the
troops based in Kosovo value their experience simply
because of the sense of control it gives  them and
free girls every night. Free girls, or girls for
littlemoney- both are flourishing in kosovo.
I have been a witness to the left boot substituted by
the right boot. they are the same brand.
Of course it is up to the individual. The feeling of
being an American in the Balkans was always one of a
superiority. Lets look deeper. And Balkan hospitality
is notoriously famous.
Is it better to die free or live as a slave.Who knows?
Peace is the best!!! I pray for brotherhood on the
Balkans. But some people( serbs, albanians, etc) think
that they are (more) superiour to others.And they get
support- from different parties.Somebody has an
interest in this. Who? God? 
Wake up, Brothers of Centuries- We have slaughtered
each other for many wars .Only We can stop it.
Why noone remmembers the little girl raped and killed?
Was not she a victim as well. There are no words, no
justifications for anyone here- there is only ONE
thing- My Dear Albanian Brothers- and it is called
Personal Consciousness.  
God bless you, us and let peace on earth.
