Media reports coming from Kosovo uniformly refer to what is going on as "inter-ethnic violence" or "clashes." That is nothing but a transparent attempt to spin the situation and pin the blame anywhere but on the real culprits: Albanian mobs, organized and instigated...

As I mentioned Thursday, the extradition of two Croatian generals to the Hague Inquisition has occasioned comments in the media about how Serbia now needs to arrest and extradite its own "indictees" in order to remain in the Empire's good graces. In the words of...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: In the Balkans, everything is politics. Thus with the recent story concerning a folk festival marked by consumption of the world's biggest pork sausage, the Serbian Orthodox Church's reaction to it, and the coverage this...

Abuse of death is nothing new in the Balkans or, indeed, the Empire. It was perhaps too much to expect that Boris Trajkovski's tragic end in the Herzegovina mountains would be spared the same fate. Antiwar.com's resident Macedonia expert Chris Deliso has a great piece...

In mid-November, one Bosnian TV station broadcast the 169th installment of a program called "TV Tribunal" - a weekly newscast dedicated to "informing" the public about the Hague Inquisition. What made it special was a segment in which Head Inquisitor, Carla DelPonte,...

Radio Free Europe, a US-operated propaganda setup in Prague, often runs ludicrous reports about Kosovo and Bosnia, but this one takes the cake. Apparently, thousands of Muslim Albanians are going to Catholic Christmas celebrations this year, and this has the RFE types...
