Not your father's German army
"German troops 'hid like rabbits' in Kosovo riots" - headline, The Telegraph.
During the two-day riots between Albanian and Serbs, an Albanian mob burnt and looted 29 Serb churches and monasteries in the southern city of Prizren, and caused several thousand Serbs to flee their homes.
"The German soldiers ran away and hid like frightened rabbits in their barracks. They only reappeared in armoured vehicles after the Albanian mob had wreaked its havoc and left a trail of destruction."
So now we know we didn't need them in Iraq. We are better off with El Salvador.
