Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, recently caught uttering an ethnic slur against Serbs in a Prague bookstore, has also been involved in the purchase of Kosovo’s telecom company! Yes, that’s right, she is leading a group of investors seeking to buy PTK, the Kosovo-owned (well, sort of) telecommunications and postage company, according to BloombergBusinessWeek: [...]

I thought when I read last week that the Secretary of State was headed to the Balkans, I thought for a second or two, maybe she’ll actually do it: Apologize for our needless, unprovoked attack on Serbia in 1999! (If I were President [Lord have mercy on the USA!] I would go to the Serbian [...]

Two articles show the continuing meddling behavior the US and probably the EU have toward Serbia. They are disturbing. The first one is from the National Interest and it described the continuing meddling we insist toward Serbia: On his fourth try, Tomislav Nikolic won Serbia’s presidential election last week, defeating incumbent Boris Tadic by a [...]

I like Senator Marco Rubio. He’s a rising star in the GOP. And Senator Rubio is still better than either President Obama or VP Biden. But his speech on foreign policy was terrible. It could have been written by Senator Lindsey Graham. That is no compliment. Here’s the text and some highlights, or maybe lowlights: [...]

I do not often read Ann Coulter. She was critical of conservative lawyers several months ago on basic interrogation rights and I had to call her out. No word on how she felt about my criticism. But I could not miss this column: Bill Kristol must resign. I agree. He ought to leave the conservative movement. He [...]

There was an interesting Real Clear Politics/Gallup poll on which nations find the US or its people most popular. The top five are listed. I thought it might be Poland (nope), the Baltic Republics (not them), not even Kosovo (They just missed the top five at sixth). They are seven nations in sub-Saharian Africa: Democratic [...]
