The Jewish lobby in not only well organised, but its supporters are some of the wealthiest people in the US; it has enormous political clout in Washington. Look at the names that hold Cabinet positions, judiciary, academia etc. However, the Albanian lobby is only as good as their ideas coincided with US interests – I’d agree that their importance has been over inflated by Serbs. But Camp Bondsteel was an important piece in the puzzle.
Your republicans couldn’t spread butter on bread let alone democracy – look at their failures; Iraq Afghanistan, in fact the entire middle east. Republicans or democrats are all the same; while in opposition they say anything, but when in power they just continue what the last lot in government have been doing. If its drones, then there are a plenty in the US congress and Senate but you’ll find out that in late 2010 the US can’t scratch itself without collective approval, especially after the recent meetings between NATO and the Russians in Lisbon. Let me repeat at the recent G20 meeting and APEC in Japan the US was “humiliated” when not one of their suggestions was adopted against China – this would have been unthinkable 10 years ago. Even the UK refused to support it.
I would not hang my hat on US support. As soon as priorities change they will drop the Albos like a hot potato and they are beginning to change. These impending talks are not happening because there is a “feel good “atmosphere; they are happening because there is no more money to keep the status quo and there is a great fear that if the situation does not change the Kosovo Albos are going to target the US/NATO troops. 12 years of stagnation can make people very angry when all they have is promises and nothing coming to fruition.
The US of the 20 century is not the same country in 2010.

I understand clearly what you’re getting at. However, it is a matter of simply putting that question to the ICJ. It will clear it up once and for all time. The reason why the answer is NO is because the US would never allow that to happen.
Kosovo can NEVER join the EU while its disputed land; nor can anyone mine minerals or explore for gas or oil or invest. The Albanians want the EU because they have nothing in Kosovo and think money will come out of the sky once they join. Serbs on the other hand are 70% against while 20% are for joining.
I suggest that you get a copy of a 1970s UK series called “Yes Minister”. It will give you an excellent grounding into western politics machinations and what it means when repeatedly deny something is not up for discussion.
