Happy Independence Day Kosovo!
I was exiting the subway at Rockefeller Center when I heard horns blaring and sirens wailing up 6th Avenue. Hundreds of (luxury) cars and SUVs full of exuberant flag-waving Kosovoans were jamming traffic and ear drums in all directions.
My first thought was that Kosovo won a soccer match, but then I noticed all of the American flags.
This was no celebration of a sporting victory. Kosovo, with the help of the Clinton Administration and NATO, had earned their independence from Serbia.
Congratulations Kosovo and Americans from Kosovo!
I love NY!!
