This is the area where one group of relatively peaceful Muslims have been fighting it out with a more radical group that is taking its orders from Bosnia (and ultimately Saudi Arabia).
The "we don't know if it's ethnic or religious intolerance" nonsense is typical B92 Soros nonsense.

The picture vanished on me. You will see the church if you go to the link and look at the photos both in the 8th and 9th rows down, far left side.

The Riaset added that a desecration of any religious structure "sows the seeds of unrest", and that, "according to the Koran", it is "worse sin than murder". So when the Taliban blew up those ancient Buddhist statues in March of 2001 prior to blowing up the WTC in 2001, they committed an act worse than murder?
Did this Imam condemn the destruction of those statues?

While it appears the Religion of Peace is involved here, let’s give props to the Riaset for condemning the desecration. It’s unfortunate we likely won’t hear anything on whether the Riaset walks the walk.

Kosta’s gonna give you s**t for calling Rashka “Sandzak”. It’s like calling Kosovo “Kosova” or Knin “Krajina” and not Dalmatia :)

"Kostas gonna give you s**t for calling Rashka Sandzak. Its like calling Kosovo Kosova or Knin Krajina and not Dalmatia :)It's B92, what do you expect? They have a whole section dedicated to "Unrest in the Sandzak" -- even when there isn't any "unrest" --but B92 will be is ready when there is!

"While it appears the Religion of Peace is involved here, lets give props to the Riaset for condemning the desecration." I agree. These Zilkic Muslims are like the Gorani Muslims were in Kosovo in their relations with Serbia -- like "Yeah, we're Muslims but we aren't here to make trouble or be a problem. We'll blend in." Unfortunately for the Gorani, the Muslim Albanians hate that about them and drove many of them out of Kosovo.

I'm hazy on the whole Balkans issue, being of the opinion as Bismark said that "The whole of the Balkans is not worth the bones of one good Pomeranian grenadier".
However, can anyone tell me why we are supporting the Kosovars against the Serbian people? The Serbs are Christian and were there long before the muslims came in the 1400's. The area is a hot bed of drug running terrorist activity so what the hell are we doing?

....and then they say be civil. We need another Crusade.

To: Diocletian; Jimmy Valentine
Actually, the Albanians predate the Serbs in the BalkansCorrect. However the Albanians certainly do NOT predate the Serbs in Kosovo. Over the last century they have become a majority, due to their astounding birthrate and immigration from Albania and surrounding regions.
Should you require a rough analogy, the Mexicans of our Southwest will do fine. They certainly predate the Anglos in the region. A small native population, swelled by illegal immigration and a high birthrate has made them into a majority over the past 50 years. Kosovo=Aztlán.
The difference? The Spain lost the territory to Mexico. Then the Mexicans ceded and sold their territories to us. At that time, the territories were very remote and the number of Mexicans very low, just a few thousand throughout the Southwest.
Like the Mexicans in some ways, Albanians prefer to settle in and dominate by numbers those areas surrounding their homeland, rather than develop their own country.

"It is unclear from Beta news agency's report if ethnic or religious intolerance was behind the incident. Oh Please..........what a crock. If it were any other religion except orthodox christian, there would be no question.
