Hey Serbs, fast...blame the bird flu on the KLA, or even better on Bin Laden's pigeon and geese agents with towels on their heads that are spreading the disease with the intention of wiping out all of Serbia. Of course they used China as source to hide the fact that they are operating from a chicken farm in eastern Kosova under the nose of NATO...and Bin Laden acting as a farmer.
Now behold...Serbia will take this and turn ito a Wikipedia article!!!
no dude blame it on the thousands of tons of depleted uranium that ur "allies" dropped on urs heads, even ur socalled "president" is dieing from cancer.
I knew you'd find some political-everybody-hates-serbs reason behind the chicken deaths
