Actually Albanians were killing Albanians well before NATO entered Kosovo. It was another war Thaci and his KLA thugs were fighting in order to secure political control in Kosovo. Rugova was the elected head of the Province of Kosovo and his LDK were by far the most popular political party there. Thaci's goon squads were intimidating, abducting and murdering Rugova's LDK representatives all over Kosovo. Their were constant threats against Rugova as well. I spoke to some of the LDK people, one who was badly beaten and left for dead and the other managed to escape from a KLA make shift prison near Glogovac thanks to the advancing Serb VJ. Their are countless occurrences like this and to this day these LDK people live in fear of disappearing. This is simply the KLA effort to dominate politically.

These suspects you see sitting in the courtroom are some of these KLA goons. Latif Gashi and his subordinate Sabit Geci were in charge of these individuals,fortunately they are now in jail. You have to commend the efforts of NATO and the UNMIK in rounding up these thugs. Maybe their is some objectivity here?

Once the KLA start shooting UNMIK policeman in the back as was done with the Serb Police for example the party will most certainly be over which I believe would be a good time to let the Serbs return and administer their province of Kosovo and continue the efforts of bringing those responsible for murder to justice. Bush has a tiger by the tail in kosovo and maybe its time to let it go before it turns and really bites him on the ass.

Vooch the LDK are primarily a western style democratic party who are pacifists. The only weapon the LDK have is their popularity with the Kosovar Albanian population that is why they hang on. The estimate I had was that approx. 700,000 of the population in Kosovo are LDK supporters. Rugova is not a stupid man but with the KLA noose around his neck and his followers it is difficult for them. I believe Rugova has been intimidated to the point of being partially controlled by the KLA. That is what the KLA do, if they can not push it aside they take it over. This is what happened to the Kosovo Police Service.

I would estimate that approx. 200 LDK member/supporters have been executed directly or indirectly by the KLA. This is a rough estimate based on investigations that were ongoing back in 1999. Those 5 Albanians before the U.N. courts in Pristina are a result of those investigations.

I have seen (back in 1999) the contents of a KLA PU abduction bag with included one very nasty cattle prod and of course the standard bellaclava and handcuffs.

I posted something about this some time ago. Of course if its not on CNN it can't be true. A lot of the Albanians found dead after NATO arrived was the result of the KLA execution squads. Not only LDK were targeted but suspected collaborators i.e. Albanians that worked within the Serb authority.

I know the KLA have a list of these people and are still hunting them down. Its the same in any conflict get rid of the traitors and informants. People should realized that Serbs are not responsible for all of the deaths in Kosovo the KLA have a lot of blood on their hands. This is a fact.

thanks for the info. My estimate arrived at some 70-80 Albanians killed by KLA in period November 98 - April 99. Your numbers cover a wider range than mine, but reach a similiar conclusion.

Your soucres are likely to be more reliable than mine, being closer to scene and all that.....

Is it possible for you to arrive at a number of Albanians killed by KLA for a period prior to March 1999 ?

Hey ho, long time no see. :) I've almost forgot FR even exists, I've been so busy doing other things that I've lost track of the things going on. Anyway, as I have said a lot of times, every war criminal should be held responsible for his actions, regardless what country or planet that person comes from. I think that's a fair stance. :)

Ah, yes....he is a phoney is he not??

While my husband and I, dine with a Serbian Orthodox Bishop in a week or so....we will discuss just how VERY, VERY much the little Serbian refugee community here has done to send aid to refugees from KosovO who still must live in camps inside Serbia. We will also discuss...what else can be done to help.

Our Serbian refugees here are an inspiration to me!!

What has phoney baloney "Serbian fire"/smokegenerator ever done to assist these folks??? MOST Possibly..... NOTHING!
