So lemme get this straight - you don't have anything supporting that statement, so you're now going to reference things which don't support your claim but are related to Albania?
How hard would it have been to check your own facts before posting them so as to avoid my doing it and shoving them right back down your throat?
Detainee Release Announced (May 05, 2006)
Albanian fix for Guantanamo dilemma.
Yeah, too hard, I know - you should have stuck with the "I'm done with you" thing the first time you said it.
Try this one...and thoughout the day, I will submit more as they are found.

"ACTOR'S VOICE, HICKS' AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POLICE INTERVIEW: At that time Kosovo was dominating the media and after watching that I just had something inside that said I had to go and do that, like a spur of the moment sort of thing. I was watching the briefings. I found out there was one group and they were training in northern Albania. They were going into Kosovo and I realised that maybe, at a wild guess, I could go there and try it and I did it. To me that was doing the impossible.
DEBBIE WHITMONT: But by the time David Hicks got there, the war in Kosovo between Serbia and Kosovo's Albanian majority was almost over. Hicks trained for four weeks with the KLA and signed up with NATO. But then there was a peace deal and Hicks and other foreign volunteers were sent home under NATO orders. This photo was taken in Albania on his first day of training - as a posed souvenir - with weapons borrowed from a storeroom.
MAJOR MICHAEL (DAN) MORI, HICKS' MILITARY ATTORNEY: If you actually look at that time, the KLA was being supported by the United States of America, um, there were rallies within the United States supporting the KLA.
DEBBIE WHITMONT: Major Dan Mori, a marine, is the lawyer appointed by the Defense Department to represent David Hicks. Mori has been to the Balkans. He says Hicks never even made it to Kosovo - he never got across the Albanian border.
MAJOR MICHAEL (DAN) MORI, HICKS' MILITARY ATTORNEY: I've been to Kosovo. I spoke to people that knew him from when he got there, the day he left and David Hicks never fought in Kosovo.
DEBBIE WHITMONT: Though the KLA were Muslims, David Hicks, at that stage, wasn't. He told the Australian Federal Police he joined the KLA to help the Kosovo people.
***** Imagine that...."hows in da world did he git all da way in Bosnia??" Bet he knows some folks in high places that speaks English with an American accent. :))
Maybe not Iraq or Afghanistan, but my bets are Afghanistan at some time....as well as Saudi. Got to keep it in the family you know.

"But in 1995, he traveled to Bosnia, where he served alongside al Qaeda-linked Muslim fighters. The detainee claimed he was merely the unit's cook, but he displayed knowledge of al Qaeda-linked charities and fighting units in Bosnia during the interview with FBI agents. The detainee subsequently traveled to Chechnya, another al Qaeda-linked hot-spot.
