Victory euphoria can't be the link. > Euphorias dont last long and it's been 2 years since > the NATO strikes. --->Nik, firstly all-Albanian uprising thing was the idea of the article on the magazine, that YOU found as a good explanation for the situation in Macedonia. Secondly, I was not talking about euphoria which is caused by drugs! :) I' wasn't even talking about euphoria at all, I was saying that the first NATO intervention might serve as a good argument to fuel the old fire and to convince THE PEOPLE that in a war scenario they will be supported again, therefore.... Right now the situation is very tense and people might thing that they can challenge the limits because they will be supported again, which is not true! > Besides the Allies have made it clear they don't > support 'extremist groups'. ---> This is one more reason for NATO not to interfere, which is what I was trying to explain, I think we both agree about the result, It's just that annoying reply feeling :) > The Kosova link can only be found in the > uncertainty over its status, and > the fear of a pullout of NATO forces (if Kosova were > to be destabilized by > disgruntled armed Albanians), and of an imminent > return of the Jugoslav > Army. -->That's what I wrote in the first e-mail, once again! If you do reply next time with "the same line" probably I will just do copy & paste with "no comments"! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
