Albanians form "movement for unification"

PRIŠTINA -- A movement whose goal is the unification of "all Albanian territories" was founded in Priština today.

The organization, dubbed Movement for Unification, also appointed Avni Klinaku as president.

"The main goal of this party is the unification of Albanian territories into one country and the resolution of the social problems of the citizens of Kosovo," Klinaku told the founding assembly.

Klinaku was also the founder of the National Movement for the Liberation of Kosovo, an organization which was one of the founders of the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army, KLA.

What does this have to do with my request? You claimed that Croatia recently gained land in the last war when the fact of the matter is that Croatia's borders have been unchanged since 1945 when it had lost land to Serbia and Bosnia-Hercegovina thanks to the redrawing of borders by Tito's Communists.

Here is the map of Croatia (Banovina Hrvatska) from 1939-1941 that was agreed upon by Serbian and Croatian politicians who were engaged in reforming Royalist Yugoslavia (Cvetkovic-Macek Agreement):

Here's a map of Croatia in its borders from 1945 to the present (unchanged by the last war):

Now, as you can see, the Republic of Croatia (both during communist times and at present) lost much of its territory to Bosnia-Hercegovina and also lost several counties in Eastern Srijem to Serbia (Vojvodina). The latter land issue was decided by a commission headed by Milovan Djilas, a Montenegrin Serb Politburo member. Croatia received Baranja, a majority Croatian region as well as Istria, also a majority Croatian region.

Your knowledge of history is pathetic, but I’m sure you already knew that.

Hahaha, nice try student of the Pavelic drawn map with the help of Hitler and Nazi Germany. Show the map before Pavelic and his blood suckers. Not the one Croats wished for but the real one recognized internationally.

Look we can go round and round and I know your sources and why you use them. The fact is your a hard core Nationalistic Nazi Croat who thinks he has done a greater service to God, church and country than any other nation on earth.

I'm not trying to change your mind nor am I open to being persuaded into your cult. I understand our differences and perhaps we can leave it at that.

I did. Here it is again, from the 1939 Agreement between Serbian and Croatian politicians in Royalist Yugoslavia:

I repeat, your ignorance of history is incredible. Only an ignorant person would confuse the Banovina map with that of WW2 NDH (pictured below):

Again, the point here being that your claim that Croatia gained territory in the last war is false, since the borders of Croatia haven't changed since 1945.

His knowledge of history is pathetic. I wonder if that’s why he got banned? :-)

[montyspython]

It was better that he be banned, less embarrassing for him. Give an idiot enough rope and he will eventually hang himself.

[Banat]

Welcome to FR. The Radicals will never be in power, so your concerns are rather unfounded. And when did Serbia “start 4 wars”?

[Banat]

It’s not about Albania! It’s about the “state” of Kosovo! The Albanian terrorists and Al-Qaeda darlings in Pristina will run the show. Kosovo will annex Albania, not the other way around.

[Banat]

He’s an Albanian shill. Been here 3 weeks, will be gone by the end of the month. Hit-and-run.

[Banat]

The passage is irrelevant. It mentions "leaders" of Serbia (not by name, btw). The citizens of Belgrade/Serbs overthrew their government on March 27, 1941 PRECISELY because the government was not exactly anti-Nazi (their pro-Nazism is questionable, too. They just wanted to keep Yugoslavia out of the war). One week later, Hitler ordered complete destruction of Yugoslavia, and especially Serbia/Belgrade. Look it up under Operation Punishment. It's not like the Belgraders welcomed the Nazis with flowers...you know, the way Croats in Zagreb did. End of story.

If you are talking about “old-and-old” — he’s gone already!
