I realized i had forgotten to share this picture with all of you. This is a giant picture of Bill Clinton on the side of a building in downtown Pristina. It puts into perspective how thankful and how much Kosovars appreciate what the US did back in '99 in our 78 day bombing campaign to end the terrible things that were happening. Im not going to get into the debate of who started it, what crimes did or did not happen, both the KLA and the Serbians hands are dirty if you know what i mean. But regardless, the UN and the US came in, dropped some bombs, and ended a conflict. The people here appreciate what we did and show it not only in bilboards and signs, but in their everyday actions and "thank you's" and "we love america's" they say to us EVERY DAY. Its nice to be appreciated. I see more US flags flying here in Kosovo then i see in the states...not sure if thats good or bad, but it def puts things into perspective. You might have to click on the picture to make it big enough, but, enjoy! Love you all, miss you all, see you soon.
