Letter: Inertia on Kosovo

Sir: I am tired both of Serbian denials of a deliberate policy of ethnic cleansing in Kosovo and of the UN's failure to end atrocities in the region. We all know that, since the abolition of autonomy in 1989 by the government of Milosevic, Kosovo Muslims have suffered at the hands of the Serbian army and paramilitary police. The question is not whether Kosovo might become another Bosnia - it already has - but when punitive Nato raids will convince the Serbian fascist government that it can no longer act with its customary impunity.
