I've decided to start a new feature on the blog and all of our writers are encouraged to chime in with their own articles. This time I'll start it off with some of the cooler countries that I like and why. The US is, of course, number one, so we'll skip us for now.
1. Kurdistan: Having put up with 25 years of the rule of Saddam Hussein, the fascist government in Syria, repressive Turkey, and the theocrats in Iran, these people are resilient. While Muslim, they are surprisingly secular and definitely tolerant, sheltering Yezidis and Christians from al Qaeda terrorists. Iraqi Kurds are also the most pro-American people on the planet and fight side-by-side with our forces in Baghdad.
2., 3. Albania and Kosovo: Pro-American and democratic, these poor nations are eager to help spread democracy throughout the world. Albania just joined NATO and has sent troops to Afghanistan, Iraq, and Darfur to help stop the spread of Islamic extremism. Albania warmly welcomed President Bush during his visit there and is a secular Islamic nation.
4. India: The world's most populous democracy, this nation has moved closer to the United States in the last eight years. Friendly also with Israel, the nation is one of the few in the world with a slim history of anti-Semitism. Tolerant and on the forefront of the War on Terrorism, this nation is one that just screams awesome. India is also sending rockets into space now and may beat us back to the moon.
5. Israel: One of the most berated nations, Israel's democracy is tolerant, despite having hundreds of millions of people wanting to wipe it out. Israel proudly takes on fasicst and theocratic forces, like Saddam's Iraq, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Islamic Republic of Iran. This nation is one of our closest allies and deserves much more credit than it gets.
6. Georgia: This small country is one of the most pro-America on the planet. Georgia is pushing to join NATO and sent 2,000 troops to Iraq. Georgia also offered 500 to Afghanistan. Unfortunately, Russia's brutal and unjustified attack last August has decimated the nation's infrastructure and military and Russia's dictatorship is actively seeking to topple the Western-backed democracy.
7. Colombia: A democracy that has fought off narco-terrorism, Colombia is the United States' cheif ally in South America. A hedge against Venezuela, this nation is planning to send over 100 troops to Afghanistan. Thanks in large part to President Bush's dedication, Colombia ended much of its fighting with drug traffickers and communist guerrillas.
8. Poland: One of America's top allies in Europe, this nation suffered at the hands of Hitler and Stalin. From the ashes of the Cold War, this former Warsaw Pact nation is a leader in the fight against terrorism. Sending 2,500 troops to Iraq and over 1,000 to Afghanistan, Poland is looking to avoid the mistakes of the past. Poland is also integral to American interests in Eastern Europe, especially when dealing with Russia.
9. The Ukraine: The breadbasket of Europe, this populous democracy has shone as a US ally. Although Russia is pressing on the democratic government, the people have not conceded. Despite Russia poisoning presidential candidate Victor Yushenko in 2004 and rigging the elections, the people rose up and demanded a new vote.
10. Mongolia: Yes, the former home of Genghis Khan, this remote nation between Russia and China has positioned itself in the US bloc. Sending troops to Iraq and Afghanistan, Mongolia is looking to rebuild after about 70 years of Communist rule. Mongolia warmly welcomed President Bush's visit several years ago.
Bonus Country: Yes, Britain should be on this list, but it's too obvious. Australia is America's tough brother who always seems to be there for us. The Aussies sent troops to Korea and 'Nam, as well as to Iraq and Afghanistan, where they served with distinction. Australia's a venerable democracy who's looking to help its neighbors, especially with its intervention in East Timor.

Robert Latham at New School Allowed Ethnic Albanian To Condone Genocide Against
Serbian Orthodox Christians in Kosovo
Posted 3/2/2009 2:37 PM EST
I couldn’t get the link right so read the scoop here -> Robert Latham at New School

/>> > Dear Friends: I have told this factual autobiographical account prior. However, this
was during the height of NATO’s illegal war launched against Jugoslavija so I am unsure
if this
e-mail ever reached the entire audience for which it was intended. Hence, I am re-sending
a brief
account of whereby one United States University in New York City assisted Bill Clinton
and
Tony Blair in plotting, orchestrating, launching and perpetuating Albanian-KLA
Nationalism and
ethnic genocide directed against the Orthodox Christian Serbs in Kosovo. (See
Attachment for
formal proof).
/>> >
/>> > I. It was in the Fall of 1997, my first semester in graduate school at the New School
for
Social Research when I noticed the bulletin on the wall that announced the Albanian Pro
-KLA
Nationalist Fatmos Ljubonia was going to give a lecture on Albanian Nationalism at the
New
School for Social Research in NYC (5th and 14th Streets in Wolffe Conference Room
2nd
floor). This lecture was undoubtedly funded by the USIP and the WPI (the World Policy
Institute
resides on the fourth floor of the schools location).
/>> >
/>> > II. Evidently, this particular lecture sparked my interest like none other owing to
my serious
commitment in following the various political & international trends regarding the
Kosovo / Serbia
& Bosnia wars and what would occur next. Therefore I made it my business to sit in on
this
lecture.
/>> >
/>> > III. At that time, primarily the students attending this lecture and (it was a full
house) were
from parts of the world (like Asia) who knew nothing about Serbia and Kosovo. So they
were
very interested to hear what Fatmos Ljubonia had to say about the plight of the ethnic
Albanians
in Kosovo. There were only two graduate students who really knew what was going on in
Kosovo at that time between the Albanians and the Serbs. (me and this Albanian student).
I sat
in for about 1 and 1/2 hours taking notes and listening. Then I left. Here is a short and
brief
description of the lecture.
/>> >
/>> > IV. Primarily Fatmos at first attempted to elicit as much sympathy as humanly
possible from
the New School graduate students. He began the lecture by explaining that the Serbian
government had imprisoned him for 20 years. and treated him in an inhumane manner.
He did not
explain why to us.
/>> >
/>> > V. He quickly then shifted (to be blunt)–he spent the rest of his lecture lying to the
(students) about the current situation in Kosovo. He supplied lies as answers to the
students
questions about Serbia, Albania and Kosovo and Fatmos completely bad-mouthed the
Serbian
government blaming it, for myriad human right violations not only committed against him
(as he
claimed) but also against him all ethnic Albanians in Kosovo.
/>> >
/>> > VI. He completely this question and answer session quite pleased with himself since
most
of my classmates later indicated to me that they were shocked to hear about the
conditions under
which Fatmos claimed the ethnic Albanians were living under in Kosovo. I knew the man
was a
filthy liar but I could not say anything at the time. So he lied lied and he lied more!
/>> >
/>> > VI. As I said I left early but I will never forget his phrase stating: “I, Fatmos
Ljubonia, have
come to the New School for Social Research to ask you, The New School students, to
give me,
Fatmos Ljubonia, new creative nationalist ideas to PROMOTE AND TO CONSTRUCT
A
GREATER ALBANIA!”
/>> >
/>> > VII. Now there were a hell of a lot of New School faculty members also present
who
knew the truth about what really was going on between Serbia, the Western liberal think
tanks at
the New School for Social Research and their king, Bill Clinton regarding Kosovo.
However,
evidently these were the same political science professors such as David PLotke who
later
tossed me out of graduate school only three weeks prior my anticipated MA graduation
date on
April 22 1999 at knife point (we all know about my Civil Rights Case against the school
#02-99-2132.
/>> >
/>> > VIII. I, Jill Starr have always stood up for the right political and social group, the
Serbs of
course. For it was not the Serbian authorities fault that NATO members and their
corrupted
politicians with a guilty as hell mens rea instigated and escalated the present ethnic
contentions
and genocide now occurring in Kosovo today!
/>> >
/>> > XV. For this reason it does not surprise me that the semester before I was tossed
out of
school by POL SCI DEPT. CHAIR David Plotke, during my classes with the renown
Robert
Latham (from the SSRC in NYC) no one did anything when my Albanian classmate stated
in
front of many UN Diplomats that he 100% promoted “ethnic genocide against the
Orthodox
Christian Serbs in Kosovo!” Of course I reported the incident to both my human rights
professor
Adamantia Polllis and also the Dept. Chair David Plotke, yet neither of them did a damn
thing!
What they did do is allow my Albanian classmate to continue going to school and
graduate while
they decided to throw me out of school and ruin my life to the best of their corrupt
abilities!
/>> >
/>> > X. The Albanian classmate of mine even said to me in front of Robert Latham’s
entire class
(FALL 1998) this to me when I said I’d like to see a copy of his paper which he said is
written to
promote ethnic genocide against Orthodox Christian Serbs in Kosovo this— />”Jill, you
will
surely die before you ever see my term paper!” The New School faculty threw me out and
kept
the genocidal Albanian on April 22 1999! See attachments!
/>> >
/>> > PS: I’d like to give some lectures describing this experience in America to my
friends in
Serbia. David PLotke even came towards me with a swiss army knife!
