Hiya,

So the KLA are terrorists. Just like the ANC, NLF, PLO, IRA, PKK, FSLN,
FARC, the Zapatistas and so on and so on. Your terrorists are my freedom
fighters. Today's terrorist godfather is tomorrow's revered international
statesperson. Just ask Nelson Mandela!

Remember, there are no excuses for justifying genocide.

Later,

Richard

		March 31, 1999 approximately 1000 people protested NATO Bombing
Yugslavia in Grand Central Station, New York City at 5pm Eastern time. 1000
people mostly ( approximately, 90%) Serbian-Americans, some Greek Americans,
and a couple Black and Asian Americans marched across 42nd Street to The New
York Times to protest NATO bombing and the media's demonizing of the Serbian
people. The protesters carried signs which wrote: "Stop the bombing in
Yugoslavia", "Stop the lies, New York Times", "Who are the agressors?  Pentagon
and Wall Street", "Serbian people are guinea pigs for new weapons". They
chanted from 5pm to 6:30pm: "Stop the bombing, stop the war", "Hey, Hey, USA,
how many kids did you kill today?", "Yugoslavia", "Kosovo is Serbia" and "Hey,
hey Uncle Sam, Kosovo is Vietnam". Serbian flags waved in the air as Serb Songs
were sung in Serba-Croatian. Black ribbons were distributed along with
information on future protests in New York City and Washington DC. Another
protest is planned for Washington DC on Sunday and Monday in New York City.
