If the late former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic was accused of ethnic cleansing, then why do Kosovo Albanians comprise more than 90 percent of the population of Kosovo, and the Serbs, who were once the majority in their "Jerusalem," fewer than 10 percent?

Consider the fact that Kosovo Albanians became the majority by crossing illegally from Albania into Christian Kosovo. Kosovo Albanians already have a country -- Albania -- so instead of the threat of a "Greater Serbia," we now have a far deadlier threat in "Greater Albania," complete with a newly created jihadist state in the heart of Europe.

Kosovo to the Serbs is what the Wailing Wall is to the Jews, what the Vatican is to Roman Catholics and what Mecca is to Muslims. As though 500 years were not enough when Serbs suffered under the Ottoman yoke, the West has doomed them once again to live under their oppressors.
