Zoti is not me. The "Nepal recognizes Kosovo" is me. If you read that comment you realize what is behind of it. Read again - you totally misunderstood.
(Ataman, 1 March 2011)

True, Ataman never posted under my name.

My statement was meant to be incendiary. We put up with this "ALL Albanians are criminals" attitude from the Serb camp on a daily basis. Just wished you experience what it feels like since B92 is very selective on posts attacking Serbs and the Serb nation in general.

pre 13 godina

Really? 40+ comments over some stones being tossed at a bus?

The greatest WANTED war criminal on earth named Ratko Mladic is lounging in a cafe in Belgrade sipping Château De Beaulon Cognac.

Lets discuss meaningful news. Lets discuss why Serbia is protecting and hiding the most wanted man on this earth next to Osama Bin Laden.

Rest assured though, justice will be served to Mladic on this earth, or in the next life....

Than why you want to deal with them on B92? To convince a criminal that he is a criminal? And how about newborn criminals, where did they commit the crime?

At the moment you say their crime is that they did born you became a criminal.

BTW: read again what I wrote about King of Nepal (that was my post) and think a bit, what could be behind of that.

I promise you that we will keep them out where are my brothers Bones Where are my fathers bones until I get them back and put them to rest I will not sleep at night easy nor my mother.

12 years have past and for you mite be a lot Zoran but for me it seems like Yesterday when Serbian paramilitary entered my home and kicked me my mother and my sisster out but I have not seen my Brother or father since that day.

The agony the goes through my bones and body chills as I write this its only felt from ones who are in my tight heart and shoes.

So until they are back I will make sure with the strength I have no Serb is back and I want an apology.

they were neither KLA or anything else just regular citizens killed at rendom.

Horrible story, Gjakovar. Maybe not much comfort for you, but be sure: they were not "as cowards", just "cowards" among other much worse things. The masks were for a good reason: everyone I know in Serbia would report them to the proper place. They knew that what they are doing is rejected by most people. Otherwise why did they wear masks?

How can you be so childish to fabricate something in my name? Something I never wrote. How low can you go? B92 is this type of undermining somebody allowed? What is the opinion of other readers about it?
(Joe, 28 February 2011 21:14)

I clearly remember that B92 did chastise few people by posting contradicting writings from the same IP address under different names. Otherwise I see no single reason I would write funny things in your name. Someone could make a joke, yes. But that IP should be pretty close geographically to yours and I have no friggin idea what is your IP and have no interest to learn it. You probably know that IP addresses are logged and if there is a controversy much can be retrieved.

You may get impression, you are terribly important because at some point few people from a pretty large area were curious who you are. It's less about the person, more about the shockingly stupid comments that person produced, even compared with some others on B92.

I'm sorry to hear the sad story about your brother and father. It must be difficult to experience something like that. Feeding the cycle of violence keeps it going indefinitely as everyone has their own horror story. That is why true and honest negotiations are the only path to peace and prosperity. There is a window of opportunity for that now but it doesn't remain open forever.

In my books, the process of truth and reconciliation will probably give you the answers a lot faster than selective justice. If you want the truth then you have to seek it. Violence and hatred will only give you more violence and hatred.

The topic at hand have to be seen in contest with events 11-20 years ago.
Some of those on the bus as I read committed crimes. Not proven? Well they s/b treated as suspects and their cases investigated. If proven guilty there s/b no excuses. There s/b justice for all. My sad experience on this site however is that Serbs don't see it that way.

-- So you're basically accusing me of overlooking crimes committed by Serbs within a comment thread attached to an article reporting on Albanians attacking/harrassing ordinary Serbs visiting the graves of their loved ones. Again. You avoid the topic at hand, you attempt to associate half-baked excuses for this event from other nationalists with something that took place nearly seventy years ago in a completely different place and context, and then you accuse me of being perennially biased and one-sided to a topic and criteria that you yourself crafted.

Are you justifying violence in God's name? What happened to love thy neighbour? Where in God's teachings does he allow people to throw stones at others?

It is time to move on from the past and embrace the present. There is peace now so remove the hatred and violence out of the system. Every side, yes I repeat, every side has its own stories of horror. If you continue to focus on hate and violence then that's what you get in return. It is the law of attraction.

here you are,all of you throwing "verbal"stones to albanians.Despite the fact that none of you were really touched by the war in your family as the gjakovar were(gjakova being the city where most horrible crimes did happen thanks to these serbs).
You have to understand that it is your verbal stones that killed yesterday and will kill tomorrow:it is your propaganda that allowed your serbs to committ crimes without feeling and having the sentiment that it is a crime,it is your common attitude toward albanians that allows these crimes to happen yesterday and tomorrow;The fist step and first objective always begins with the depersonalisation and the desgumanisation of the people you have in front of you:you spent and spend hours and hours here to present albanians like animals and barbaric;Why? only for one purpose:to let feel you easy when you will kill them,to let feel you as not being a human who committed a crime against an other human.deshumanisation is always the first step for genocide and crime,it is well documented,and can be well documented in the serbian case too.
you do have a personel responsability here.You assume it,ok;
Then i am entitled to say that when you came in gjakova with your 3 fingers,it is just the same as if a SS was coming in aushwitzwith his arm saluting heil hitler!
I accept that you want to honor your death,but do accept that we too could have this possibility and do not forget that in gjakova hundreds of mother do not know where your army has sent their kids!
Is it precisly why you chose gjakova to "celebrate"?
If justice is not done here,we do believe in god and we do believe that He will do the job and be juste with all of us,

Albanians are physically incapable of committing crimes, that is unless their sponsors (US, UK, Fr, De etc.) change their mind. Only look at their cover up of KLA crimes over the last decade and the blind eye drawn by the Europea Parliament MEPs. Everyone has their favorites.

In the recent UN resolution on Libya, the US demanded an clause be added that foreign mercenaries be given immunity from prosecution by the ICC. Allowing that would have opened the US open to prosecution over their complicity in war crimes in the Balkans, the most obvious the support private US military contractors like MPRI (Military Professional Resources Incorporated) provided to the croats over Operations Storm and Flash.

There is no place in Europe for people like this who continue with such barbaric behavior and institutions that refuse to punish (effectively) such offenses. It is much closer to Turkey who along with Pakistan have practically no history of democratic development (i.e. mostly run by the military).

Nepal recognizes Kosovo

pre 13 godina

I have a question. Say, the government of some smaller country (Nepal) is now debating if recognizing Kosovo independence is a good idea or not.

Some people suggest that in order to understand the situation and make the decision the president and the king of that country should read the original B92 article and pay attention to all comments because they are a good mirror of the mentality in Kosovo.

I am curious, who does think it would be a good idea because it would provide a positive picture?

Thank you. 8-)

Let me teach you a little about Gjakova/ dakovica even before the war it did not have a big Serb population and all Serbs knew Albanian they had for long time only one street and thats where the street stands.

The people who came from Bosnia there they all armed caused a lot of pain to people in the city and surrounding villages. Old mayor he started to build a church in middle of town where 98% of population did not want it.

In south part of city he was building a area where from sky you could see CCCC in a cross.

In the war they slaughtered people in their homes though them out. Now 12 years later you want us to let them come back forget it.

they tried before no peaceful visits since we know that our beloved neighbors are the ones that killed our loved ones. As well we have many missing bodies that mothers want back, so please the ones who are coming back are those neighbors.

Its hard to understand unless you have lived here let the church be there no one touches it but dont come back ever

How about the 100:1 (killed) or 50:1 (wounded) ratios for each Nazi that Serbs had to live with during WWII? It is not an excuse for the tragedy that innocent people had to endure, but it puts things in perspective, something that you constantly fail to demonstrate when you put your comments here.

1. Incidents against albanians happends in N.Mitrovica.

-I have never heard of Serbs desecrating albanian cemetaries, trowing granades at albanian homes or burning down mosques?

2. You don't have any reason to throw stones at albanians traveling trough Serbia because albanians have never come to Serbia to kill serbs. Serbs have killed and massacred albanians in Kosovo.

-So you are collectivly juding all Serbs? Is that it? All Serbs are guilty? Why do you want the north to give up its resistence if you intend to get rid of them. Do you actually know what you are saying?
Besides, you are forgetting all albanian crimes agains serbs: organ harvesting, the burning down of hundreds of monasteries and churches, the deportation of 200.ooo kosovo serbs etc.
Not to mention albanian crimes against serbs during WW2. But I guess they don't count.
My wifes brother were nearly beaten to death by albanians in Istok. Why? His only crime was wanting to go back to HIS land and home.

3."Kosovo independence(since partition is out of question) dosen't come from albanian behavour. It comes from Serbia since Serbia has repressed albanians for decades. Reamamber Milosevic or more far back Rankovic and many others. Just read a little bit and you will see!"

-Sorry to dissapoint you but partition is a reality. The only way not to partition Kosovo is to ethnicly clense the north from all remaining serbs.
How come 1,9 million albanians remained in Kosovo if it indeed was that bad? How come albanians from Albania came to Kosovo if they feared the serbs? They fled Enver Hoxha to go to Kosovo. After the serb army left Kosovo thousands of albanians from Albania invaded Kosovo. Stealing appartment that belonged to serbs among other things.

4.One of the person who was in the bus was former major of Gjakova when Kosovo was part of f.yugo. This major has caused much pain to the people living in Gjakova and many albanian victims has gone trough his hands. He is the reason why people throwed stones at the bus and it is acceptable.
Go to Partesh (near gjilan) and see how serbs live and decide for your self if serbs are repressed in Kosovo in any how. Compare this to albanians living under serbian rule before 1999. You will see a big difference!!

-Oh please! Why didn't NATO arrest this guy if you have proof he commited crimes against albanians? You also forgot to mention that Arkan and Milosevic were on the bus as well. In every place in Kosovo where there are serbs they are accused of warcrimes by the albanians. No matter how old or yound, if they are serbs they must be warcriminals. You don't want serbs to return to Kosovo because you want to steal their houses and land, just like you are trying to steal Kosovo.

Thanks Hungarian Joe, I like happy endings, and the removal of Hungarian Nazis from Vojvodina qualifies. Unfortunately your post continues to qualify as a perverted attempt to justify and excuse terrorism by your Albanian buddies, but hey, at least your history lesson was good news in the end. I suspect more good news for Serbia will prevail in the end in Kosovo as well, as history has a tendency of repeating itself.

Knowing the kind of Serbian represals like that in Vojvodina in 1944, where 40,000 innocent Hungarian civilians were masacred for 4,000 Serbs (10:1 ratio)if the victimes of Gjakova would have been Serbs, Gjakova inhabited by Serbs and the passangers on the bus K-Albanians than none of the bus passangers would be alive today.

This sort of incidents happen to often I'm affraid. Kosova Express buscompany takes albanians from all over Europe through Serbia to Kosovo and I have yet to read about one single incident where serbs attacked a bus carrying albanians. It just showes who is more civilized out of the two peoples. Further it proves that serbs and albanians don't have a future together. Kosovo will be partitioned and that is thanks to albanian behaviour.

1. Incidents against albanians happends in N.Mitrovica.
2. You don't have any reason to throw stones at albanians traveling trough Serbia because albanians have never come to Serbia to kill serbs. Serbs have killed and massacred albanians in Kosovo.
3. Kosovo independence(since partition is out of question) dosen't come from albanian behavour. It comes from Serbia since Serbia has repressed albanians for decades. Reamamber Milosevic or more far back Rankovic and many others. Just read a little bit and you will see!
4. One of the person who was in the bus was former major of Gjakova when Kosovo was part of f.yugo. This major has caused much pain to the people living in Gjakova and many albanian victims has gone trough his hands. He is the reason why people throwed stones at the bus and it is acceptable.
Go to Partesh (near gjilan) and see how serbs live and decide for your self if serbs are repressed in Kosovo in any how. Compare this to albanians living under serbian rule before 1999. You will see a big difference!!

Knowing the kind of Serbian represals like that in Vojvodina in 1944, where 40,000 innocent Hungarian civilians were masacred for 4,000 Serbs (10:1 ratio)if the victimes of Gjakova would have been Serbs, Gjakova inhabited by Serbs and the passangers on the bus K-Albanians than none of the bus passangers would be alive today.

1. Incidents against albanians happends in N.Mitrovica.

-I have never heard of Serbs desecrating albanian cemetaries, trowing granades at albanian homes or burning down mosques?

2. You don't have any reason to throw stones at albanians traveling trough Serbia because albanians have never come to Serbia to kill serbs. Serbs have killed and massacred albanians in Kosovo.

-So you are collectivly juding all Serbs? Is that it? All Serbs are guilty? Why do you want the north to give up its resistence if you intend to get rid of them. Do you actually know what you are saying?
Besides, you are forgetting all albanian crimes agains serbs: organ harvesting, the burning down of hundreds of monasteries and churches, the deportation of 200.ooo kosovo serbs etc.
Not to mention albanian crimes against serbs during WW2. But I guess they don't count.
My wifes brother were nearly beaten to death by albanians in Istok. Why? His only crime was wanting to go back to HIS land and home.

3."Kosovo independence(since partition is out of question) dosen't come from albanian behavour. It comes from Serbia since Serbia has repressed albanians for decades. Reamamber Milosevic or more far back Rankovic and many others. Just read a little bit and you will see!"

-Sorry to dissapoint you but partition is a reality. The only way not to partition Kosovo is to ethnicly clense the north from all remaining serbs.
How come 1,9 million albanians remained in Kosovo if it indeed was that bad? How come albanians from Albania came to Kosovo if they feared the serbs? They fled Enver Hoxha to go to Kosovo. After the serb army left Kosovo thousands of albanians from Albania invaded Kosovo. Stealing appartment that belonged to serbs among other things.

4.One of the person who was in the bus was former major of Gjakova when Kosovo was part of f.yugo. This major has caused much pain to the people living in Gjakova and many albanian victims has gone trough his hands. He is the reason why people throwed stones at the bus and it is acceptable.

-Oh please! Why didn't NATO arrest this guy if you have proof he commited crimes against albanians? You also forgot to mention that Arkan and Milosevic were on the bus as well. In every place in Kosovo where there are serbs they are accused of warcrimes by the albanians. No matter how old or yound, if they are serbs they must be warcriminals. You don't want serbs to return to Kosovo because you want to steal their houses and land, just like you are trying to steal Kosovo.

How about the 100:1 (killed) or 50:1 (wounded) ratios for each Nazi that Serbs had to live with during WWII? It is not an excuse for the tragedy that innocent people had to endure, but it puts things in perspective, something that you constantly fail to demonstrate when you put your comments here.

Albanians are physically incapable of committing crimes, that is unless their sponsors (US, UK, Fr, De etc.) change their mind. Only look at their cover up of KLA crimes over the last decade and the blind eye drawn by the Europea Parliament MEPs. Everyone has their favorites.

In the recent UN resolution on Libya, the US demanded an clause be added that foreign mercenaries be given immunity from prosecution by the ICC. Allowing that would have opened the US open to prosecution over their complicity in war crimes in the Balkans, the most obvious the support private US military contractors like MPRI (Military Professional Resources Incorporated) provided to the croats over Operations Storm and Flash.

There is no place in Europe for people like this who continue with such barbaric behavior and institutions that refuse to punish (effectively) such offenses. It is much closer to Turkey who along with Pakistan have practically no history of democratic development (i.e. mostly run by the military).

Let me teach you a little about Gjakova/ dakovica even before the war it did not have a big Serb population and all Serbs knew Albanian they had for long time only one street and thats where the street stands.

The people who came from Bosnia there they all armed caused a lot of pain to people in the city and surrounding villages. Old mayor he started to build a church in middle of town where 98% of population did not want it.

In south part of city he was building a area where from sky you could see CCCC in a cross.

In the war they slaughtered people in their homes though them out. Now 12 years later you want us to let them come back forget it.

they tried before no peaceful visits since we know that our beloved neighbors are the ones that killed our loved ones. As well we have many missing bodies that mothers want back, so please the ones who are coming back are those neighbors.

Some people suggest that in order to understand the situation and make the decision the president and the king of that country should read the original B92 article and pay attention to all comments because they are a good mirror of the mentality in Kosovo.

There is a window of opportunity for that now but it doesn't remain open forever.

You have to understand that it is your verbal stones that killed yesterday and will kill tomorrow:it is your propaganda that allowed your serbs to committ crimes without feeling and having the sentiment that it is a crime,it is your common attitude toward albanians that allows these crimes to happen yesterday and tomorrow;The fist step and first objective always begins with the depersonalisation and the desgumanisation of the people you have in front of you:you spent and spend hours and hours here to present albanians like animals and barbaric;Why? only for one purpose:to let feel you easy when you will kill them,to let feel you as not being a human who committed a crime against an other human.deshumanisation is always the first step for genocide and crime,it is well documented,and can be well documented in the serbian case too.
you do have a personel responsability here.You assume it,ok;
Then i am entitled to say that when you came in gjakova with your 3 fingers,it is just the same as if a SS was coming in aushwitzwith his arm saluting heil hitler!

This happens when you provoke Albanians when you,Serbs, enter Kosova in a uncivilized way.

Putting up the 3 fingers towards Albanians is provoking in a very primitive way.

Do not forget, these 3 fingers were a symbol of your army, para-military groups, cetniks, Arkan's group, ....

This so called symbol of yours has slaughtered many innocent Albanians ... and Albanians to not forget.

Kosovo Albanians behaving like saints, on All Souls Day - just another example of K Albos showing their love. It would be a lot wiser for them to go and stone Thaci's house, as that KLA organ-harvester is sinking Kosovo into a pit of evil crime and filth. One day, hopefully, KLA supporters will take their heads out of their butts, and see things rationally and with no bias.

Let me teach you a little about Gjakova/ dakovica even before the war it did not have a big Serb population and all Serbs knew Albanian they had for long time only one street and thats where the street stands.

The people who came from Bosnia there they all armed caused a lot of pain to people in the city and surrounding villages. Old mayor he started to build a church in middle of town where 98% of population did not want it.

In south part of city he was building a area where from sky you could see CCCC in a cross.

In the war they slaughtered people in their homes though them out. Now 12 years later you want us to let them come back forget it.

they tried before no peaceful visits since we know that our beloved neighbors are the ones that killed our loved ones. As well we have many missing bodies that mothers want back, so please the ones who are coming back are those neighbors.

Its hard to understand unless you have lived here let the church be there no one touches it but dont come back ever

here you are,all of you throwing "verbal"stones to albanians.Despite the fact that none of you were really touched by the war in your family as the gjakovar were(gjakova being the city where most horrible crimes did happen thanks to these serbs).
You have to understand that it is your verbal stones that killed yesterday and will kill tomorrow:it is your propaganda that allowed your serbs to committ crimes without feeling and having the sentiment that it is a crime,it is your common attitude toward albanians that allows these crimes to happen yesterday and tomorrow;The fist step and first objective always begins with the depersonalisation and the desgumanisation of the people you have in front of you:you spent and spend hours and hours here to present albanians like animals and barbaric;Why? only for one purpose:to let feel you easy when you will kill them,to let feel you as not being a human who committed a crime against an other human.deshumanisation is always the first step for genocide and crime,it is well documented,and can be well documented in the serbian case too.
you do have a personel responsability here.You assume it,ok;
Then i am entitled to say that when you came in gjakova with your 3 fingers,it is just the same as if a SS was coming in aushwitzwith his arm saluting heil hitler!
I accept that you want to honor your death,but do accept that we too could have this possibility and do not forget that in gjakova hundreds of mother do not know where your army has sent their kids!

1. Incidents against albanians happends in N.Mitrovica.

-I have never heard of Serbs desecrating albanian cemetaries, trowing granades at albanian homes or burning down mosques?

2. You don't have any reason to throw stones at albanians traveling trough Serbia because albanians have never come to Serbia to kill serbs. Serbs have killed and massacred albanians in Kosovo.

-So you are collectivly juding all Serbs? Is that it? All Serbs are guilty? Why do you want the north to give up its resistence if you intend to get rid of them. Do you actually know what you are saying?
Besides, you are forgetting all albanian crimes agains serbs: organ harvesting, the burning down of hundreds of monasteries and churches, the deportation of 200.ooo kosovo serbs etc.
Not to mention albanian crimes against serbs during WW2. But I guess they don't count.
My wifes brother were nearly beaten to death by albanians in Istok. Why? His only crime was wanting to go back to HIS land and home.

3."Kosovo independence(since partition is out of question) dosen't come from albanian behavour. It comes from Serbia since Serbia has repressed albanians for decades. Reamamber Milosevic or more far back Rankovic and many others. Just read a little bit and you will see!"

-Sorry to dissapoint you but partition is a reality. The only way not to partition Kosovo is to ethnicly clense the north from all remaining serbs.
How come 1,9 million albanians remained in Kosovo if it indeed was that bad? How come albanians from Albania came to Kosovo if they feared the serbs? They fled Enver Hoxha to go to Kosovo. After the serb army left Kosovo thousands of albanians from Albania invaded Kosovo. Stealing appartment that belonged to serbs among other things.

4.One of the person who was in the bus was former major of Gjakova when Kosovo was part of f.yugo. This major has caused much pain to the people living in Gjakova and many albanian victims has gone trough his hands. He is the reason why people throwed stones at the bus and it is acceptable.
Go to Partesh (near gjilan) and see how serbs live and decide for your self if serbs are repressed in Kosovo in any how. Compare this to albanians living under serbian rule before 1999. You will see a big difference!!

-Oh please! Why didn't NATO arrest this guy if you have proof he commited crimes against albanians? You also forgot to mention that Arkan and Milosevic were on the bus as well. In every place in Kosovo where there are serbs they are accused of warcrimes by the albanians. No matter how old or yound, if they are serbs they must be warcriminals. You don't want serbs to return to Kosovo because you want to steal their houses and land, just like you are trying to steal Kosovo.

Nepal recognizes Kosovo

pre 13 godina

I have a question. Say, the government of some smaller country (Nepal) is now debating if recognizing Kosovo independence is a good idea or not.

Some people suggest that in order to understand the situation and make the decision the president and the king of that country should read the original B92 article and pay attention to all comments because they are a good mirror of the mentality in Kosovo.

I am curious, who does think it would be a good idea because it would provide a positive picture?

Albanians are physically incapable of committing crimes, that is unless their sponsors (US, UK, Fr, De etc.) change their mind. Only look at their cover up of KLA crimes over the last decade and the blind eye drawn by the Europea Parliament MEPs. Everyone has their favorites.

In the recent UN resolution on Libya, the US demanded an clause be added that foreign mercenaries be given immunity from prosecution by the ICC. Allowing that would have opened the US open to prosecution over their complicity in war crimes in the Balkans, the most obvious the support private US military contractors like MPRI (Military Professional Resources Incorporated) provided to the croats over Operations Storm and Flash.

There is no place in Europe for people like this who continue with such barbaric behavior and institutions that refuse to punish (effectively) such offenses. It is much closer to Turkey who along with Pakistan have practically no history of democratic development (i.e. mostly run by the military).
