A Kosovo Albanian from the city of Kacanik has been arrested in a cafe in the southern village of Strpce in Serbia’s province of Kosovo report police spokesman Arber Beka.
The arrested Albanian wore a suicide vest loaded with explosives.
He was arrested in the cafe called Kvatro around 8:00 pm today. Police and NATO troops have surrounded the perimeter and are investigating.
The arrest came after a cafe patron spotted that one of the three Albanians who just walked into the cafe had wires under his jacket.
The police was immediately called in and after a search, the police found explosive in a suicide vest on the body of Arben Husi, one of the 3 ethnic Albanians who came into the cafe.
In addition to the explosives, the police found a grenade and a Kalashnikov.
The witnesses say that one of the Albanians ran out of the cafe, while the second one was held on. After the search, the police tied Husi up to the chair and then took him to the police station.
It is not clear whether Husi planned to commit a suicide bombing or to just plant the explosive inside the cafe and activate it after.
Kosovo Albanians are overwhelmingly Muslim and radical Islam is on the increase ever since the Western states have been insisting that the Serbian province is independent.
Strpce is located just under the slopes of the Sar mountains and is populated by Serbs.
Few weeks ago, 2 Albanians stabbed a Serb from Strpce in a chest.
Ping!
This plot was not thought completely through.
apparently, no remote detonator (thank goodness!) such as they use on women vestwearers
Maybe Michael Totten can write another article on how great things are there.
“”I want to stress that the US will continue to support multi-ethnic, independent and democratic Kosovo in its efforts to take a meritorious place as a full member of the community of the states,”
Well, that didn’t take long, though no surprise given the positions of Clinton and Holbrooke in his administration. Let’s see if now that we are flat broke he gives the jihadis in Kosovo hundreds of millions like Bush did.
He should go to Kosovo and give a speech in the open... then he should go to Serbia and do the same.

One would think... but then hussein says the WOT is over... it is now the year of the Unicorn and rainbows.

Very interesting development since Albanians don’t make very good islamists, the fact that they are even attempting to implore suicide tactics changes the dynamics. We’ll see if these types of terrorist attacks begin to gain in popularity and pick up in frequency.
Like you said - that didn't last long. :(
With Obama having H. Clinton as Secretary of State, it will be like the 90s all over again. Don’t forget about Mr. Vice Prez Joe ““all Serbs should be placed in Nazi-style concentration camps” Biden” and you will have to wonder...
The problem is that the Saudis are opening up Mosques there.
Albanians will do whatever is expedient whether it is chopping of heads of Christians or saluting Hitler.
If the Saudis are willing to pay albanian unemployed lazy males to do it - they will blow up themeselves and others.
