Foreign volunteers in the Kosovo war.
I posted this on the Vetem Shqiptaret thread earlier but I believe it deserves its own thread. Post any foreign volunteers to the Kosovo war that don't have any Albanian ancestry here, I don't know how many there are and if any except the one example now will be able to have a clear story behind it explained.

Article about his motives, experience: http://wwwc.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/9905/24/kosovo.html
"Went despite the family's protests
, Kim says repeatedly that he went down to make a bet; he felt it was his duty.
- The family's protests did not matter.
He became even more determined down there. When he met with Kosovo Albanians who fled for life and told their stories.
- A man had eleven children. The Serbs came on the youngest son's first birthday. The man was tied and forced to watch as Serbs fired ten of the children. Then they cooked up a cauldron with water and pushed the one year old. After a while they pulled the dead baby:
- Eat! You thank well not say no to the fine birthday dinner, your son wanted to give up on their first birthday?
He tells the story of the mother who has seen his entire family except the two smallest obliterated:
- Are you tired? Hassle to carry on the small? asked one soldier.
The soldier shot the children
- so shot the soldier children and said, "Now it will be easier for you when you do not have much to carry on."
- Last time I saw her she was sitting just staring into a wall.
Kim does not know how long he will be home. He sees the news on television. He hears the Anna Lindh complain that NATO uses powerful bombs. He thinks that the key issue, the Kosovar Albanians suffering, is to end up in the background.
- If only the KLA had the weapons they need, they would themselves be able to drive out Serbs. The refugee problem would solve itself naturally.
- As it looks now? I feel that I must soon go back again. My friends need all the help they can get."
Part from the article. Ironic thing that I just noticed, the whore Anna Lindh who apparently complained about NATO bombs being too powerful eventually got stabbed to death by a ServIf that ain't karma.
He also returned after that injury and supported Kosovo long after the war was over: http://www.nato.int/Kfor/chronicle/2001/nr_010428.htm
Also found the classic guy, the german sniper Mike Spath.

Really the remarkable thing here is that these guys don't have Albanian ancestry from what I know, they simply went there due to the fact that they sympathized with the Albanians. There is no greater glory than to go to war not because you have to, but because you choose to. They were willing to risk their lives in far away land for the values that they held. God bless them both and any other foreign volunteer that just isn't recognized and known.
