suppress terrorists/rebellions without approval of the USA, EU, and NATO. The best
examples are Turkey 270 which has to fight against Kurds, and Israel fighting against
several terrorist‘s groups. Thanks to the support of the western world they can fight
against terrorists even in neighboring countries such as Iraq and Lebanon, respectively.
One can‘t imagine what would have happened if Serbia tried to fight against the KLA in
Albania.
In the future on the Balkan Peninsula, the world can expect more turmoil in FYR
Macedonia, the southern part of central Serbia, Montenegro, and perhaps Greece (some
of incidents in these areas were already mentioned in news and articles such as Pan-
Albanianism: How big a threat to Balkan stability?). 271

Mountain in which they killed several terrorists and recovered weapons for 650 men. 272

a war which 30,000 lives were lost, 4,000 villages were razed to the ground and 3 million Kurds were
driven from their homes. And Turkey is a member of NATO, which participated enthusiastically in
NATO's "humanitarian war" on Yugoslavia.”
