The Serbs are mad. ?One of my air traffic officers was detached during the Kosovo campaign to the air traffic control tower at Pristina airfield for a few months: his Serb counterparts would play card games while drunk and with loaded guns at their side.

But there are rules of war, if only all sides would abide by them.

One of the worst stories I heard about armed combat was an SAS patrol. He was an avid bird watcher. He saw some Carrion vultures cruise down on a part of Yugoslavia. He thought:

"Why would they be there?"

Then he saw 2 men nailed to a wall in a cruciform position.

I know massacres have been going on for some time, but in the 1st World war things took a turn for the worse with chemical weapons. Before then men had to fight with chilvary.

Now there is no chivalry left in the world!
