3 Albanians arrested in northern K.Mitrovica

The real news is that the serbs trowed stones at the workers building this pipeline. Two workers got injurys and had to seak medical help. The serbs are attacking albanians and then they say they are not safe in Kosovo.

And for the three albanians who got arrested it's not strange that they got a rifle at home. What should they do when they are sorrounded by serbs.

Public street/road is not private property. Stop the propaganda, please!

Racisms at glance!

Teh "endangered" K-Serbs are protesting because they don't want that the WATER pipeline for their Albanian neighbours passes throw their properties.

Guess what they would do if they were not "endangered"???

But we all know that it was just 8 years ago- 1999 expulsion of their neighbour, killing, raping, destroying neighbours houses- all things that ALL of us are witnessing since 1991 in Vukovar, than Bosnia and finally in Kosova.

I hope that all of those misinformed people and “extremely worried” about the “endangered” K-Serbs will read and comment on this- waiting to hear your “liberal-democratic” and “legalist” stances- now you have a good chance.

We can try to choose words but the fact is that this is a pure manifestation of xenophobia.

This is what your KPS spokesman said:

> He said that a few stones had been thrown at an excavator, but other than that, there had been no material damage, nor was anyone injured.

Tell me please... did you even bother to read the article before writing your little propaganda piece


I read the articel but the articel is manipulated. The truth is that the serbs throwed stones at the workers and two got inqured. The police in Kosovo has confirmed this. B92 writes a different thing. They diden't wrote somthing more because the stonethrowers was the serbs. Serbian media is working like the serbian politicans. They hide when a serb does somthing bad. B92 hide those serbian stonethrowers just like belgrade is hiding Mladic and Karadzic.


Everything that comes from your country Serbia is a lie.

As for the 3 albanians who got arrested, one wonders what was behind the KFOR decision to search the house. Whatever it was, certainly seemed to be vindicated.

One doesn't use an automatic rifle to hunts rabbits.. even in Kosovo.

Looking at what you have written in your post above, think that last sentence of yours sums up your attitude nicely.

Racism ben?

Look in the mirror.

You know, the funny thing is that if the article reported on 3 Serbs being arrested in Southern Mitrovica, the very Albanians, with the exception of EA, who posted here would be applauding the KPS for their stellar work, and blaming the Serbs for refusing to accept realities and follow the new law of the new land. Instead, the roles are reversed and the article is now conveniently manipulated by Serb media and the K Serbs are racist.

It's kind of hard for some people to be objective when they look at Kosovo in the same way as they would a football match with rival sports teams.

Let the KPS and UMNIK to find out who are the perpetrators despite of their ethnic background.

Mark (Shqype),

why are you so concerned with 1878? None of us were around then. On the other hand everyone saw and read about 2004 -- the latest in mass violence against the K-Serbs.

ben

while what you say about this incident appears to be right, from the little we know, and while I agree with your general sweep of 1990s history, none of that can alter the fact that real crimes have been committed against K Serbs since 1999. Just remember, the label 'endangered' applied to K serbs, that you ridicule, never applied north of the Ibar.

well, hiding an automatic rifle... we all can see who is actually trying to provoke violent clashes...

don´t fool yourselves, my dear albanian friends, nothing, just nothing can prevent the re-integration of serbian territory!

My assessment of the above comments: Albanians 3 , serbs 0

So the Serbs were protesting. So what. Does this give the Albanian civilians the right to buy into this and start with rock throwing at Serbs?

Don't the Albanians believe in leaving it to the authorities to manage? Don't they trust the police to handle a protest or were they just itching for an excuse to start something with the Serbs?

Everyone has the right to protest but the Albanians making themselves the judge and executioner is certainly not on.

You see what can happen when you don't behave. You get your house searched and end up in trouble.

So the Serbs were protesting. So what. Does this give the Albanian civilians the right to buy into this and start with rock throwing at Serbs?, sid Peggy.
My dear Peggy, Serbs were the ones that throw stones at workers and K-Albanins accompinying the workers doing work on public road.

1878-1912 Albanian terror on Serbs in Kosovo&Metohija.Read and educate yourself!

I have no idea what the real story behind this article is. I do not know if the Serbs protests are justified, if the stone throwing was an act of desperation caused by the local government not doing a fair job, etc. And I am not sure the confrontation between the Serbs and the Albanians protesters was as peaceful as the article implies.

But I have a problem with connecting these 2 events:

Participate in a protest => Getting your house searched.

Something extraordinary must have happened here, and I would like to know more about that.

Vindicated? I am not so sure. True, rabbit hunting is not done with automatic (who said anything about automatic anyway?) riffles, but this is after all an area that has been subjected to war and war-like situations for years.

I wonder what the result would be, if one conducted a similar search in a random collection of 50 Serb houses and 50 Albanian houses? How many riffles would such a search uncover? If the search was "vindicated" as you say Peter, is it because the riffle proved the 3 men were up to no good? If a random search showed up 5 more riffles, would their arrest also be vindicated?

Still, the interested question is: Why were the house searched? The article gives no answer.
--

why was the search? just to provoke incidents of course!
Some are trying very hard to throw us in a clashbecause some just want to have a pretext to have their army back!
these attemps to provoke clashes in noth mitrovica just to put an end to the kosovo situation and have a justification for their action is the new danger for albanians.
So keep cool,and don't give the pretext to serbs!

Sydney is in Australia. So it's relatively safe to assume that I am an australian, as is indeed the case. Ergo, my country is Australia.

That last statement of yours is about as accurate as is your logic.

As for your 'tirade' against B92, it is a western backed media distributor. Some serbs believe it gives too much emphasis to the pro-EU block in Serbia, just as some K-albanians believe it gives too much emphasis to serbs.

So what? It is a serb outfit backed by western money - get over it.

Some K-albanians get censored, as do some serbs - it's in the terms & conditions.

I personally have had perfectly innoculous & innocent little sections excised (no doubt human error on the part of B92 of course). Happens.

Occasionally, B92 gets the story wrong - to be expected, as they are a conduit, not a source, & sources can be wrong.

Live with it, or go post elsewhere.

If it was a bolt action, or semi-auto. Ok - is Kosovo. But a full automatic. For protection? With a KFOR base just down the road?

Assumption sounds reasonable to me.


lili:

KFOR is now pro-serb? I don't think so.

Suvi do has been a flashpoint for quite a while - usually due to K-albanian agression - with numerous incidents instigated by the K-albanian majority & all documented - is why KFOR built a base there.

The real news is that the serbs trowed stones at the workers building this pipeline. Two workers got injurys and had to seak medical help. The serbs are attacking albanians and then they say they are not safe in Kosovo.
