UN police, Serbs battle in Kosovo

By RADUL RADOVANOVIC
Associated Press Writer



KOSOVSKA MITROVICA, Kosovo (AP) -- International forces pulling Serb demonstrators from a U.N. courthouse were attacked Monday by hundreds of furious protesters who massed outside, setting off an hours-long battle with rocks, grenades and live ammunition.

U.N. and NATO forces responded with tear gas, stun grenades and gunshots. At least 42 U.N. and NATO forces and 70 protesters were wounded in the worst violence in Kosovo since its declaration of independence last month.

Serbia, which considers the territory its historic and religious heartland, says Kosovo's declaration of independence is illegal under international law.


So this is the cause of the conflict right now
And it is just going to get worse.

These are a beautiful People and a beautiful country
And it's a sad thing to see them doing this all over


Again!!!!!!!

This conflict is to hard to blame on anyone The U.N
Is there for a reason or did we all forget This

There Job was to.


Halt the killing and ethnic cleansing of Albanians in a two-year Serb counter-insurgency war.


In which they did there job now they are
There to keep the peace which is never
Going to work because the belief's Serbians have


So this will go on forever as long as the two points of views.
Never meet on peace for there people is it bad they do
This to each other yes will it end no so force is in
Order to keep them from killing each other.


Here is something you all should see before you go thinking
What they are there for this is the reason why.



Nobody likes war but sometimes it is best to stop the blood Shed at all cost.

This will not bring peace you are right on the money
There but i do think the U.N should not leave
Because if they do who will protect all the innocent>


People there so it's a no win situation.
That will go on forever and there seem to be no

Real fix in site so for now we must protect
Each side from the other

Had missed this.

Trying to find out if there are Canadians there. More than likely there are Canadian troops and R.C.M.P. there. R.C.M.P. are deployed with UN to assist in formation of new police forces in emerging countries.
I hope that they stick it out. Ethnic cleansing is popular in that area.
