"these Illyrians like a lot of the Muslim tribes " Illyrians were like Illyrians, not like Muslims but nice try. They were there for at least 700 years before Allah was dreamed. Check out this search on the origins of the Roman emperor who
legalized Christianity. Also, do a search on where
Peter preached after Jesus was killed. People were converted after 500 years of Ottoman occupation. You might also want to search how Albanians were summarily fired by Slobodan Milosevic and how they couldn't learn their language, in their land. It may explain a few things.

Kosovo isn't their land. Never was. Never will be. They had best treat it nice because I can assure you that the Serbs will be back and they're keeping a close record of what's happening in their Holy Land. It's one of the things that they're best at.
If the Albanians that currently occupy Kosovo choose to be short sighted and rude guests, they are only hurting their descendants. You don't really believe that the Serbs won't some day have control of Kosovo again, do you?

"They were there for over 700 years before Allah was dreamed" Well my dear boy exactly where is where? So you are saying these Illyrians were not nomadic but were for ever and a day in Kosovo? You must remember that even before Islam and Mohammed's hangover that caused his visions of Islam, the Arabs and related peoples like the Illyrians were very much nomadic. Go anywhere in Kosovo and identify the ruins of great Illyrian city that firms up your point. I was in Kosovo and its not a very big place. There I saw a lot of ancient Serb buildings. The point is some llyrian/Albanian pissed on some bush while guiding his migrating flock of goats one day a long time ago and decided the place belonged to them while moving on to the next mountain range in what is now Macedonia to piss some more bushes and make the same declaration. Saw some photos of some of your Illyrian friends pissing on a very ancient destroyed Serbian Church just recently which tells me nothing has changed in the last 700 years. You may want to get more educated on the Albanian way of life which includes learning about bullshitting and lying at a very early age. They used this ability very effectively during the war and most of all do not preach to me about Albanians especially the KLA whom I got to know first hand back in 1999.
Question for you has there ever been an ancient Illyrian city excavated anywhere in that region? I have never heard of one but if you have please piss away.....
