Civil unrest in the birth place of World War I. Who would have thought Kosovo Independence was a bad idea? Now an American embassy was attacked during riots by Serbian Nationalists in Belgrade:
Rioters stormed the U.S. embassy in Belgrade, Serbia, on Thursday and started a fire in protest of Kosovo’s declaration of independence earlier this week.
Serbian media said a charred body was found inside the embassy.
U.S. officials told FOX News that the embassy building was secured and the fire was extinguished, but angry demonstrators were still rioting well into the night. The mayhem came after a large organized protest against the situation in Kosovo.
Sources have provided conflicting reports on how extensive the breach of the U.S. Embassy was. Some told FOX News that no protesters made it into the building, which has been closed this week.
Other reports from The Associated Press noted masked attackers had gained entry and tried to throw furniture from an office. The reports also said a blaze had broken out inside one of the offices.
The neighboring Croatian Embassy also was attacked by the same group.
It took police about 45 minutes to appear at the scene, and firefighters arrived about the same time and put out the blaze. Police secured the U.S. Embassy and surrounding area, blocking off all access.
Russia, China and some reports claim Venezuela back the Nationalists. We and a crumbling Western Europe full of Islamists and peaceniks support Kosovo. So when the Nationalist backers start flooding the area with weapons and “advisers” what country is it going to fall to protect Kosovo?
So, does Obama or Clinton have an exit strategy from Serbia?
