That sorta gets on my nerves. Why are these people serving for the UN in places they are not needed when their country needs them more than ever in places where security officers are in high demand.

If Europe wants to keep a long term force in Kosovo, let them.

I mean i agree with being there, we sure as hell did the right thing, but i think the situation is stable enough for the US to relocate its personel elsewhere.
