On a more disturbing note, last I read a burned body was found at the US embassy, I've not heard anything on who it was.
and as my friends from belgrade and novi sad tell me, the country is pretty much divided along those lines - the young urban population that just wants to move on and want serbia to eventualy join the EU on one side, and the nationalists, who want to "liberate" kosovo with AK's on the other...
They were waging wars there just a couple of years ago.
To paraphrase something Peter Ustinov said after the fall of communism and the breakup of the ussr, about tiny regions that have never been independent entities, people think that having their own flag and anthem are going to solve all their problems. Thats often only the beginning of the problems. He said that shortly before Yugoslavia really kicked off.
Hope this isnt going to be a repeat of history, but history would indicate that it is.
