Kosovo is one of four republics that occupies land of the former Yugoslavia. It’s the most American friendly (Bill Clinton, who intervened positively in this country’s favor, is a national hero). So is Hillary for walking into a dress shop, of all things. With all the hullaballoo in the media about Muslims, not to mention Donald Trump’s comments, most of us don’t realize that normal Islamists–not the extremist freak show that really should be kept out of this country–behave and look exactly like our friends and neighbors. Come join HCSV member Jason Paul Kazarian for a photo tour of a predominantly Muslim Baltic state and see what Islam really looks like.
