"Ethnic Albanians in the Government have manipulated public funds and regulations to take over land belonging to Serbs.
And politicians have exchanged vicious insults. Slavic Orthodox Churches have been attacked, and flags have been torn down. Wells have been poisoned and crops burned. Slavic boys have been knifed, and some young ethnic Albanians have been told by their elders to rape Serbian girls.
