That's the plan.

The story is not over yet, Dhimmi.

Yup, the Serbs haven't started their ethnic killings yet.

But based on recent history, it probably won't be long coming.

It will never be a fully legal country with Russian opposition and is a violation of international law.

As you can see most all conservatives on Free Republic do not support the terroristic mafia land grab of the ethnic Albanians.

Nor are those on Free Republic fans of the ethnic Albanians who are notorious for their drug smuggling, human trafficking, theft and violence all over Europe.

P.S. I notice on your page you are a fan of the Apollo mission. Bet you didn't know that Serbian engineers were involved in that program and I doubt there were any ethnic Albanians at all.


"Standing in front of Apollo 11 are some of the Serbian scientists who participated in the success of this program. From left to right: Slavoljub Vujic, production coordinator, Petar Gajic, engineer, Danilo Bojic, engineer who redesigned the escape hatch after the Apollo disaster, Milojko Vucelic, recepient of the Freedom Award for his work on Apollo, Milisav Surbatovic, chief engineer on Apollo who served in the Royal Serbian Air Force, Petar Galovic, engineer and David Vuich, director of public relations, North American Aviation that became Rockwell International."

How is that in any possible way relevant to this political discussion??

You always lose me when you go off on another one of those non-sensical tangents.

Sometimes I just shake my head at the USA foreign policy

Clinton foreign policy that Bush somehow neglected to reverse. Maybe it was just too late. Maybe he had some other reason. Time may tell but in any case a huge mistake.

It is relevant to the type of people the Serbs are beyond the war propaganda which is distortion and lie.

By supporting the ethnic Albanians and their ways you are supporting a people opposite to those you admire, including those who wrote America's Declaration of Independence.

The Albanians have shown no justice, honesty or even the most basic rights for non-Albanians. Albania and how it is run not a country to be admired or imitated. You essentially support another country just like that. What good does it do for human kind?

The Serbs gave the U.S. Nikola Tesla and many fine engineers who have patents on such things as IBM supercomputers.

By supporting destruction of the Serbs and expansion of thieving, drug running, relatively unaccomplished people you support primitivism and nothing to do with what you admire in the U.S.

Not much of a comfort, but CBC News World (Canada) had the usual bright breezy young woman describing the "new flag" of Kosovo. Showing the scenes there. One is reminded of the "ethnic cleansing" brigade on CBC television during the Nato crimes. Then a voice went to the Conservative government and it's position. They are waffling fast. The minority government which could easily brought down in a parliamentary vote, does not want to touch this one.

As of now, the betting is that frantic "experts" are being called in. This before a grand official statement on the Canadian position.

The threat of a sleeping separatist movement in Quebec is what scares 'em. Billions paid to buy Quebec off (IMHO). One can imagine our government saying.

Oh no, not again!

A rather large part of me wishes that maybe Russia would do a little more than talk.

It sickens me to have to agree with Putin, but I wish he would send troops in. Then again, the time to have done so was when Yeltsin was in power and Clinton and Wes Clark were conducting their immoral war against Serbia.

Wrong. The Kosovo Parliament has already said it will protect the rights of the Serbian minority.

Enough of the fear-mongering already.

So the Kurds have no state. The “Palestinians” have no state (thank goodness). But the Albanians get TWO states??? Shocking that the United States would put its imprimatur on such utter madness.

The UN will do everything to tighten Muslim control in Southeastern Europe. It is now not just a Communist institution, but a Third World Communist institution. Anything they can do to hurt Europe and America they will do.

Their politics are the politics of grievance. And to them, not allowing the troglodyte Muslims to take over major parts of the Earth and subjugate the inhabitants is an aggrievance.

The UN building in NY should be demolished for urban renewal and the petty thugs who inhabit it should be run out of town but only after they pay their parking tickets. Or else jail the SOB's.

Separatism is effectively dead in Quebec.

It peaked in the late70s/early 80s; the new generation genuinely wants to be part of Canada.

I'd forgotten about Quebec. And are the metis still around?? Plus, lst's remember The Kurds, The South Ossetians, the Basques, the Bretons and the Muslim minorities in China's far west, to name but a few.

There’s a big difference between saying something and implementing it. They have done their lip-service before and then went on the bomb more Serb monasteries.

Excellent point. And we know that assertion's almost as truthful as McCain's that he really is a conservative.

Good point. So if Greater Albania keeps expanding north due to its population pressure, will the U.S. and Britain demand that the locals throw up their arms, surrender to Islam, knock down all the churches and build Mosques?

Gee, let's see....there's another country near here with a population problem, that keeps pushing their people North, into land they claim....I wonder...no, couldn't be, could it?

Oh yes it could.

You mean like when Serbia said it was serious about going after its war criminals from the 90s wars, and then turns around and gives them shelter?

Yes, I agree, there's a big difference.

Oh no, I believe them!

The right to kneel before the Muslim Caliph and beg for mercy, the right to pay Jizya, the right to convert or be killed.

Call it the Muslim Bill of Rights for the Damnable Dhimmis!
