On July 8, 2007 the KLA (Kosovo Liberation Army, Ushtria Çlirimtare e Kosovës or UÇK) war veterans issued an announcement warning the international community and especially the United Nations (UN) not to interfere the process of recognizing Kosovo’s independence.

The KLA announcement specifically said that the Albanian leaders of Kosovo should not accept more suspensions (delays) or new negotiations because these would lead to new hostilities. If their demands were not accepted, then the KLA veterans warned that they would have to take action as KLA soldiers and honor the oath of their national heroes.

The announcement came while the UN Special Envoy for Kosovo, former Finnish President Marti Ahtisaari, was publicly accused of having connections with the Albanian mafia in Kosovo.

The Finnish News Agency, STT, published on June 26 and June 27, 2007, two articles stating that the UN Special Envoy for Kosovo was “bought” by the Albanian mafia in order to support independence for Kosovo. The STT articles reported that the information was initially published by the Banja Luka (Republica Srpska, Bosnia & Herzegovina) Daily Fokus on June 21, 2007, entitled “Albanian Mafia Bought Ahtisaari”.....

"GIS/Defense & Foreign Affairs station in south-eastern Europe has conducted research in the Balkans and from secure sources it was revealed that the BND report does indeed exist, and that the information contained is not “Serbian fiction” but a reality.

The research also revealed additional secure and confirmed information. Specifically, it was confirmed that the former KLA leader, Hakim Thaci (also known as “the snake” of KLA), had made a plan of “100 days” for Kosovo’s independence.

Only the bribed and the stupid can support an independent Jihadist state of Kosovo.

I wonder which one Hoppy is, perhaps both? But who would bribe such an idiot? Surely, every country has ample numbers of drooling pancake-flippers.

I never thought the fat Finn would be so stupid. Or maybe he thought everyone else was stupid.

Hi Bokababe:) You will love this... ISSA President Honored as Member of the Order of Australia
International Strategic Studies Association
Pres. Gregory Copley was honored in the June 11, 2007, Australian Queen’s Birthday Honours List by being made a Member of the Order of Australia for his contributions to strategic studies and philosophy.
The Commonwealth of Australia announced that it had awarded Gregory Copley, the President of the International Strategic Studies Association (ISSA), parent organization for the Global Information System (GIS) and Defense & Foreign Affairs, the honor of Member of the Order of Australia, one of the highest civil honors it can bestow. Mr Copley was in Canberra for meetings with the Governor-General of Australia, His Excellency Maj.-Gen. Michael Jeffery, and with Chief of Army Lt.-Gen. Peter Leahy, just before the official announcement.
The investiture of the honor — which carries the post-nominal initials AM — was scheduled to take place later in 2007, but the Order’s citation indicated that the honor was being given for Copley’s contributions to international affairs and the study of strategic philosophy. Mr Copley is an Australian, but heads the Washington DC-based ISSA. He helped establish Australia’s strategic research center, Future Directions International (FDI), and remains a director and chairman of its research committee. FDI is currently working on a major strategic position paper for Australia entitled Australia 2050, and Mr Copley is directing the research and analytical aspects of the study designed to examine Australia’s strategic operating environment and options through the first half of the 21st Century.
He has in the past received a number of national honors, but this was the first from his native country. One of his recent books, The Art of Victory, was hailed as a significant contribution to the study of grand strategy philosophy.

You are right -- I do! Thanks, Kunikuni!

You are most welcome:)

I would imagine that with his sort of prestige, that sooner or later someone has to lift the lid on the scandal.

He isn’t just a nobody, after all!

The Norwegian nobel committee just awarded him the Nobel peace...

They should be ashamed of themselves. But the Norwegian nobel committee is a bunch of goofballs as we all know.
