Example of use of appropriate wording (interpretation) : In the following list, there are two different ways to describe the SAME FACT. Note that whatever formula is chosen, it can perfectly be inverted from pro- to anti-, and there is no way to be accused of lying or even distorting the truth. - Serbs are killed, Albanians are massacred or assassinated. - Serbs dig mass graves, Albanians dig tombs or communal graves. - A Serbian soldier with a Kalashnikov is a sniper, a KLA soldier with a Kalashnikov is a freedom fighter. - Serbian corpses have battlefield wounds; Albanian corpses have traces of tortures. - Serbian refugees are leaving Kosovo; Albanians refugees are ethnically cleansed from Kosovo. - A Serbian refugee convoy is a line of cars; an Albanian refugee convoy is a deportation. - Ethnical cleansing of Albanians is an atrocity, ethnical cleansing of Serbs is a logical payback. - A smiling Serbian soldier is arrogant, a smiling KLA soldier is happy. - Serbian soldiers are slovenly-looking, KLA soldiers clearly suffer from equipment problems. - Serbian civilians killed by NATO are collateral damage; Albanian civilians killed by NATO are a terrible mistake. - Serbian civilians killed by Albanians are war casualties, Albanian civilians killed by Serbians are war crime victims. - Milosevic is Milosevic; Clinton is the President of United States Bill Clinton. - There are Albanian eyewitness' corroborating testimonies reporting that..., there are Serbs saying that...

Thanks Smartass for great article
1) High Albanian birth rate, Albanians practicing family values
2) KLA murdering other Albanians, family disputes
3) Albanian white slave trading, Albanian entrepreneurial spirit - exercising free market capitalism
4) 150 destroyed Serbian Orthodox Churches, Albanian urban renewal projects
5) KLA witness intimidation, mistaken identity
1. If Serb is killed in Kosovo, it is always by 'unknown assailant'. If an Albanian is killed in Kosovo, Serbs are accused.
2. "Kosovar", "people of Kosovo" always means Albanians, not Serbs, Roma,Goranis or Turks. Term "Kosovar" is invented to hide the fact that Albanians are a violent Ethnic minority, not indigenous people in Kosovo.
3.The entire Kosovo narrative frozen in time 1987-99 period only, as if nothing happened befoere and after that. Albanian crimes before 1987 are never mentioned and Albanian crimes after 1999 are whitewhashed.
4. The figures do not lie but liars figure. Ethnic composition before 1999 deliberatelly misrepresented to cover up ethnic cleansing of Serbs and Roma after 1999 and war crime of settling Albanians from Albania under NATO occupation.
5. Serbian religious shrines described as "Kosovo monuments" to hide the fact that Kosovo is Serbian land, not Albanian. For the same reason, destruction of 90% of historical monuments is rarely if ever mentioned.
The Albanians are history's squatters.
