Perhaps insufficient protest is being made about the plight of the Kosovans by those of us who live in so much more comfortable circumstances.

Certainly using force to quell force will not work. It never has. Why are we so slow to learn? Or is it that we are so very unwilling to make a real effort for peace?

Real peace will only come through really peaceful effort, through working hard, working peacefully despite the blows raining down upon us from the belligerent amongst us. We must suffer for peace not fight back with weapons of war.
