Serbia rejects Kosovo breakaway (NO to UN plan)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6324673.stm ^

Serbia's president says he will never accept the independence of Kosovo, after the publication of a UN plan which could allow it to separate.

UN Special Envoy Martti Ahtisaari's plan recommends that Kosovo should govern itself democratically and be able to make international agreements.

But President Boris Tadic said the plan paved the way for independence, which he and Serbia would not accept.

Kosovo's leader said he believed the process would end in full independence.

"Kosovo will be sovereign like all other countries," President Fatmir Sejdiu said, after meeting Mr Ahtisaari.

'Dangerous precedent'

The UN has administered Kosovo since a Nato bombing campaign forced out Serbian troops in 1999.

Talks to determine the province's final status have been continuing for years without the two sides coming to agreement.

Mr Ahtisaari says the proposals are a compromise between ethnic Albanian aspirations for an independent Kosovo and Serbia's wish to keep the province as part of its territory.

Yes we always go back and read history, however, I could give a rats butt less what happened in 1991. I'm concerned about Islam being in the business of stealing Slavic lands today. Like my opinion or not, Kosovo has been, is now, and always will be Serbian territory. That's simply not going to change...ever!!!

A quick search has shown, this Islamic apologizing clown Joey Silvera has been on every Bosina, Kosovo, Serbian thread spreading his venom. So stop the one liners Joey, and tell what's really eating at your crotch? We're adults, tell us all?

Really! Gosh, I didn't know. How silly of me.

In short, what often occurs is you have a poor soul like "Joey" who gets "taken down" by a number of us all the while Hoplite stands on the sidelines cheer-leading for poor "Joey."

But, Hoplite doesn't have the guts to bail out poor "Joey."

Have you ever noticed that?

Oh, by the way, I didn't send this directly to Hoplite...because I know he will read what I have written.

When those of us in the US protest when the Mexican illegal immigrants claim Aztlan as their own, we can look back to this precedent which assured it would happen.

Kosovo is Serbia and California is America, the two concepts are linked.
