 Here we go.... Don't take me wrong, I am not happy about any of this
happening in Vardar. But it was inevitable. The Slavs' inflexibility has
turned Vardar into an isolated blot in the map. The Albanians are not
happy about suffering for the stubborness of Gligorov and his clique.

 Wait a second. Until yesterday, MILS propaganda was telling us that
Albanians were happy living in "M". Now this. What is going on?

 A) The problem is so widespread that Gligorov cannot deny it
 B) Gligorov is pulisizing the news to justify putting "M" in some sort
    of "emergency state" (read: Dictatorship).
 C) Same as B), with the added goal of casting the Albanians as the
    bad guys for the purposes of justifying "cleansing operations".
 D) All of the above.

 Wow! According to the MILS posting, the riots started
with one incident at 4.00pm, and grew to over 3,000 before 6.00pm, when
shots started being fired. 7 organizers, 3,000 protesters in less
than 2 hours, completely out of the cold. How where the 7 identified?

  A) Any 7 random people the police could arrest in the confusion.
  B) People outspoken against Gligorov, whether they happened to
     be in the riots or not.
  C) 3 from A) and 4 from B)
  D) 2 from A), 4 from B), and 1 randomly selected hard-core criminal
     (who was not nessesarily involved in the riots)
     for the purpose of discrediting the rioters as a whole.

(Hint: The correct answer is not A, B or C)

 Is is so hard to discover the causes? Gimme a break!
