PODGORICA, Montenegro Montenegro's police said Saturday they have arrested 20 ethnic Albanians suspected of terrorism and organized crime.
The arrests in the villages of Tuzi and Malesije just south of capital Podgorica come a day before Sunday's first parliamentary elections since Montenegro gained independence from Serbia in a referendum in May.
Police did not say what actions the group allegedly planned, but said they "represented danger for the people of Montenegro."
The ethnic Albanian villages near the border with Albania are known smuggling routes for drug, arms and cigarette smuggling.
Police said they uncovered a large number of weapons in the "anti-terrorist action," including machine guns and "several thousand rounds of ammunition and explosives."

"Ethnic Albanians" = Muslims
Better to have them locked up.
best not to have them
How can they? That would be proffesional and political suicide.
When will the world wake up and realize that these Albanians are a bunch of 13th-century savages bent on stealing other peoples' land through terror and cultural and ethnic cleansing?
This is EXACTLY what they did in Serbia/Kosovo and Macedonia! They're at it again and won't stop until someone goes in and takes them all out!
If you think I'm paranoid, take a look at their map:
Kosovo. Speaking in historical and ethnic terms, Kosovo had been part of Serbia since the middle ages, before the Albanians even came to Europe from Asia. The medieval Serbian Orthodox churches are proof of it and it is in Kosovo where the Serbs fought the Turkish conquerors in the 14th century. After the Albanians emigrated from Asia to what became European Albania, and from there to Kosovo, they made only half of Kosovo’s population after WWII (1945). Today they are overwhelming majority thanks to their politics of ethnic cleansing over the Serbs and all non-Albanians during the last 50 years.
Montenegro. Podgorica is the capital of Montenegro, and as capital of the Montenegrin nation, more Montenegrins then any other city in this tiny land populate it. Yet although the Albanians do not make 40% of Montenegro’s population (nor they ever had in the past historically), they and the western propagandists such as James Pettifer, claim that 40% of Montenegro belongs to “Historical Ethnic Albania”, including even its capital Podgorica! The irony is obvious.
Greece. There is a sizable Greek national minority in Albania and yet the map of “Historical Ethnic Albania” claims that large portion of northwest Greece is Albanian? How did the Greek minority in Albania become so separated from the rest of the Greeks below the southern border of “Historical Ethnic Albania” and the vacuum filled only with Albanians is another tough question for Pettifer. This area of northwest Greece includes Epirus and western part of Greek Macedonia. Fact is that “Historical Ethnic Albania” has nothing to do neither with historical ethnic Epirus nor with historic Macedonia since “Historical Ethnic Albania” is on the Caucasus and the Albanians lived in Asia when Epirus, Macedonia, and their people lived in Europe.
Macedonia. Finally, the case of Macedonia. It is not enough for such sick Albanians and western propagandists such as Pettifer to claim the capitals of Montenegro (Podgorica) and Epirus (Ioannina) into this ridiculous map of “Historical Ethnic Albania”, but they also claim the capital of Macedonia Skopje and more then 50% of the country as well! That this is ridiculous enough speaks the fact that the Albanians in Macedonia are not 50% but 23% of the population as the European monitored census in 1994 confirmed. But in 1953 the Albanians were only small 12.5% of the population of the country which confirms the fact that they have only recently immigrated from Albania.

http://calibre.mworld.com/m/m.w?lp=GetStory&id=215930721Police announced the arrest Saturday of 14 ethnic Albanians in the southern border village of Tuzi, including three U.S. citizens, saying they "represented a danger to the people of Montenegro," but giving no details.
The leader of an ethnic Albanian party in Tuzi said, however, that the arrests represented a political provocation, as most of the suspects were either party supporters or candidates. He said several people were beaten and their homes were ransacked in the police action.
"If they had plans to arrest a 'terrorist group,' they chose a wrong moment to do it," said Vasej Sinistaj, head of the Albanian Alternative party. "The government is nervous because it is aware it is losing (ethnic) Albanian votes."
Montenegrin President Filip Vujanovic rejected the accusations, saying as he cast his ballot in the capital, Podgorica, that "the police action was carried out with a security and not a political motive."
Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic said the group had threatened "the country's legal order and the democratic ballot."
"We wouldn't have taken the action at this time if it was not necessary," Djukanovic said after voting in the capital, but provided no further details. "I expect an absolute victory in the elections, which will enable us to alone form the government."
Police said they searched nearby caves and found a machine gun, a large quantity of pistols and rifles, hand grenades, anti-tank mines and rocket-propelled grenade launchers. The region has long been known as a center for cross-border smuggling of drugs, weapons, cigarettes and fuel.
The "ethnic Albanians" were once Christians who kow - towed to the Muslim Turkish conquerors and converted to Islam.
Unlike the Christian Serbs and Croats who defied the Turks and carried on their Chritian religion under difficult circumstances until they were finally able to overthrow their Turkish oppressors a few centuries later.
Albanian authorities seize assets of suspected terrorist

TIRANA, Albania -- Authorities have seized an apartment in Kukes belonging to an Arab man with suspected links to al-Qaeda. Abdul Latif Saleh, 48, a resident of Albania since 1993, is accused of receiving 496,000 euros from Osama bin Laden to set up a terrorist group in Albania. Officials say he has also acted as a business partner to Saudi national Yasin Qadi, designated a "global terrorist" by the US Treasury Department. The authorities have already frozen more than 2m euros in accounts under Saleh's name, as well as Qadi's assets.
