Dear Milan,
Unfortunately you did not read my comment correctly, I never referred to anyone as women, but the way you are dealing with the issue in general its like the "women's gossiping"....anyways, I think you got the point but decided to interpretate it the way you wanted to! Nevertheless there is a reality on Kosovo no one can deny, as there is one in Serbia, in Albania, Macedonia or in any other Balkan state!
And there is one also in northern kosovo where thousands of people are suffering because of fake promisses from the State you live in. Let's not allow people to suffer anymore but let's build the way towards a joint cooperation to change the situation for better!

"The German media say that Merkel told Serbia loud and clear that the reason Germany did not support Serbia’s EU candidate status was wounding of two German troops in northern Kosovo."
Only an IDIOT would believed that. The Serbian people is aware that Merkel and her Germany want Serbia to give up the fight for Kosovo in exchange for an EU seat.
pre 12 godina
Typical merkel, one sided view. Serbia should give,give,give, while Pristina take,take,take. Merkel, How about condeming Pristina's unilateral actions toward the north?? Did you demand that from Taci??
Merkel is just giving orders to Serbia but do not follow up with orders for Pristina. Typical elitist.

Northern Kosova Serbs should just declare there own independence and let the EU deal with yet another headache for a few more years.

Just wonder if Serbs would be granted the same freedom of speech on other internet forums like the Albo's,Cro's and other ethnic denominations do on this website...?
Also out of curiosity is there a country the Yanks have not stuck their noses in that has lead to death and destruction...?

Dear serbs:
balkan is very well known for lots of strange phenomena. Old women's gossiping is one one them....and you guys are the best example of such. You lost all possible wars and yet are crying over them. Please, do not be pathetic, the reality is clear as the sunshine, sometimes cover by clouds but you can still spot where the sun is.
And as for the future, be sure that Albanians have never ran away if there was a war, but they always confronted you in the battlefield. So no one is or will be scared of your pathetic woman threats!
Nevertheless, we have options out of it, its called EU. LEt's take the chance we never took in the past and cooperate, maybe we can build something good out of it....
(Dorian, 19 December 2011 22:09)
What have you Albanians ever done that did not involve holding onto mother’s apron strings? From the Turks to the US today.
We went to war and held on to the best parts of the old Yugoslavia; what have your Albanians ever done apart from being recognized in this world as the greatest criminals in Europe. I laugh every time I read about the great Albanians winning the war against the Serbs in the 1990s. If I was an Albanian I would just shut my mouth because you won nothing. The so called Albanians fighters were thrashed on the balltlefield but mother had to help your cowards.
Are you stupid or just limited in your intellectual capacity? What EU? Its winding down and you expect to join and get money – where do you people live? Do you have TV or radio?
As Merkel said today she wants Serbia to open its borders for your Albanians to look for work in Serbia but how can you work for people who killed your relatives or tortured your mother and father?????? It just shows you the Albanians are the best liars today.

hahaha Dorian Dorian I'm glad there are people in the world like you to keep me entertained.
Maybe you have Dorian Gray syndrome: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorian_Gray_syndrome
Now you're also changing the history books to say you were 'closer' with Turkey and 'brothers' with Turkey during your fight against Serbs in Kosovo.
Let's face it, you changed to Islam to 'survive' because you didn't have the nuts Serbs did to fight the Ottomans.
Now the Turks are saying that most of the Ottomans in Kosovo were 'Albanians' but we know this is not true. We know that the Ottomans were Turks and you caved into their rule because:
a) You couldn't beat the Serbs (righteously so) alone
b) You changed religion so you could EVADE taxes, just like Albanians commonly do in today's era, because Christians were made to pay taxes but Muslims did not under Ottoman rule.
c) You couldn't beat the Serbs alone.. oh i already said this, i know, but I had to remind you :)
Thanks for comin'

I feel sad when I read all this comments from people in this forum. How can you use this sort of language, I don’t get the entire philosophy. Some of the people use sarcastic and childish comments in regard to Merkel visit to Kosovo such an offensive language as “going to Kosovo for organs” and other crab like this. I’m getting tired of this forum. It used to be more about intellectual comments and different points of view but now it is turned to be just a place where people express their hate against each other. It’s a shame that people still use this sort of language in the times we live in. Dear Serbs, there are no organ removal institutions in Kosovo. Wake up and realize that your clock is leaking water and is broken. You need to fix it, sooner its better as you are running out of time. You should understand and perhaps you should support Kosovo independence because based on the language that I see in here, you just cannot live with Albanians anymore. To those people that use different names and claim to be of other entities get a life as no one outside of been Serb or Albanian cares about Kosovo or what happens in Serbia.

pre 12 godina
If I were Mrs Merkel's advisor, and an uber-democrat, I would first ask Russians and Americans what they think of so-called Albanian independent Kosovo.
Then I would ask the Kosovo Serbs, who resist so-called Albanian bandit independent Kosovo what they think.
Mrs Merkel's interview in Pristina may well be remembered in years to come as exposing her lack of empathy or soft touch, and for reinforcing her rigidity, ruslesness, and militarism.
Having failed to meet local Serb residents, and by visiting the German military instead, Mrs Merkel's interview may well reinforce the message that "Germany is back to its old ways" - which presumably means that the German governement is becoming rigid and starting to resemble Hitler's regime during the WWII, which caused so much human missery in Serbia, Europe and the rest of the world.
pre 12 godina
The Bundeskanzlerin is getting a little too far ahead of herself. Remember she is the chancellor of Germany.
I'm happy that she got to see what happened to the Germans that provoked our citizens. Perhaps she maybe understands the value of human life and realises that KFOR did not act responsibly by antagonising the Serbs and this was the result.
We resisted you & your country (proudly) on so many occasions in the past, why do you think we are going to listen to you and cave in to your demands now?
I find it fascinating that history always seems to repeat itself.

It bet when Dorian reffers to Serbs as women, the people who edit this board gleefully chuckle with approval. But are they not ignoring thier own censorship criteria by allowing you to express this hateful opinion or are there in fact dual criteria, one for Serb and one for Albanian-we all know the latter is true.

In the end Serbia will take down the parallel structures, which in turn will isolate N. Kosovo Serbs - and prompt them to declare independence of both Belgrade and Pristina. Serbia and other nations (West and East) will send money and goods citing humanitarian concerns. Then sh** really hits the fan and lands squarely on Berlin's face. Two options at that point, all out war in N. Kosovo (long and protracted guerilla struggle and numerous deaths on all sides) with paramilitary Serbs darting in and out of Serbia-proper, or a protracted stalemate. Germans will never recognize N. Kosovo and about half the EU will never allow Kosovo into EU citing the same concern Germany points out now - can't allow a member with uncertain borders. Serbia's border at that point will be quite certain and defined. Kosovo's, not so much. The rest of the EU will be staring at the f**king mess in their midst and reverting to Germany with gleeful: "Thanks a lot a** hole." This is no longer a Belgrade/Pristina issue. It's a Kososvo Albanians/Kosovo Serbs issue - and only those parties can and will resolve it. Only questions left are how adn how many lives will eb lost in the process. As for us Americans, frankly we could care less where the ball drops. All the Balkans combined aren't worth one 18 year-old American's life. So settle your differences, or don't. In either case shut up already.

BTW it was YU liberal of Croatian ethnic background Ante Marcovic who sent troops to Slovenia and he was right to do so from the point of view of law and Balcan stability - premature Slovenian attempt to secede jeopardized Balcan stability.
BTW Milosevic was criticised very much by the West for NOT fighting seriose enough to keep Slovenia within YU.

Kosovo is little - I wish my home town got as much effort expended on it as this pseudo state.
My mayor doesn't get to be called president - good thing too.
States are usually formed from nations - now long will identical ethnic nationals maintain two separate states which are adjacent? With open borders and a nationality split between two essentially mono-ethnic 'states'?
Kosovo is a false invention that will may succeed for a while because awkward things are made to work while sensible things don't attract interest.
I wish Merkel's understanding of both the Euro and Serbia was better - her policies are transients that are not going to work in the longer term.

It is very nice to see that the well planed Russian/Serbian attempt to isolate politically Thaci has failed miserably. !!!!!!!!!!!
what make you think that has failed? It has been postponed. Merkel and you yankees friends are the organ buyers this explain why they don't want the truth to come out but I will join your saying that the lie has short legs. It will come even if it will be later, after Merkel's and Obama's departures.
What is shocking me most is to see the top nazi leader shaking hands with top mafia boss thaci. I'll make a copy for the history. It is the same as Canadian general Dallaire wrote about his shaking hands with the devil in Rwanda. Same scenario only Dallaire was for protection of innocent civilian people... here Merkel is protecting the devil.

So where will the Kosovo Albanians go for help when this transpires? I know this is your worst nightmare. You will go back where you belong - an autonomous province of Serbia, as you have always been. Serbs do not want to rule Kosovo Albanians, but Kosovo is Serbia, so Kosovo Albanians must adhere to their home county's rule.

I am late on board with this thread, and have not read any of the previous comments - but I must say, I am truly respectful of Germany's relationship with Kosovo Albanians. The two were allies during WWII, as was Croatia, an EU candidate and possibly next member, and the Germans continue decades later to support their historic allies. In that light, it is sad to see how the USA has treated its historic friends, mainly Serbia. For all the lives that the Serbs gave in fighting with the allies, and all the American lives that Serbs saved (The forgotten 500) during past wars, it is unbelievable how America turned it's back on it's friends. I want to believe that it is only the new generation of American politicians (Clinton/Bush) that behaved this way for their own advancements, and not as true statements. Roosevelt must be rolling in his grave. In any case, the Albanians are fortunate to have loyal powers at their side, while the Serbs are exploited by them, as usual.

Some of the people use sarcastic and childish comments in regard to Merkel visit to Kosovo such an offensive language as “going to Kosovo for organs” and other crab like this. I’m getting tired of this forum. It used to be more about intellectual comments and different points of view but now it is turned to be just a place where people express their hate against each other. It’s a shame that people still use this sort of language in the times we live in. Dear Serbs, there are no organ removal institutions in Kosovo. Wake up and realize that your clock is leaking water and is broken. You need to fix it, sooner its better as you are running out of time. You should understand and perhaps you should support Kosovo independence because based on the language that I see in here, you just cannot live with Albanians anymore. To those people that use different names and claim to be of other entities get a life as no one outside of been Serb or Albanian cares about Kosovo or what happens in Serbia.

I laugh every time I read about the great Albanians winning the war against the Serbs in the 1990s. If I was an Albanian I would just shut my mouth because you won nothing. The so called Albanians fighters were thrashed on the balltlefield but mother had to help your cowards.
Are you stupid or just limited in your intellectual capacity? What EU? Its winding down and you expect to join and get money – where do you people live? Do you have TV or radio?
As Merkel said today she wants Serbia to open its borders for your Albanians to look for work in Serbia but how can you work for people who killed your relatives or tortured your mother and father?????? It just shows you the Albanians are the best liars today.

Kosovo is little - I wish my home town got as much effort expended on it as this pseudo state.
My mayor doesn't get to be called president - good thing too.
States are usually formed from nations - now long will identical ethnic nationals maintain two separate states which are adjacent? With open borders and a nationality split between two essentially mono-ethnic 'states'?
Kosovo is a false invention that will may succeed for a while because awkward things are made to work while sensible things don't attract interest.

If I were Mrs Merkel's advisor, and an uber-democrat, I would first ask Russians and Americans what they think of so-called Albanian independent Kosovo.
Then I would ask the Kosovo Serbs, who resist so-called Albanian bandit independent Kosovo what they think.
Mrs Merkel's interview in Pristina may well be remembered in years to come as exposing her lack of empathy or soft touch, and for reinforcing her rigidity, ruslesness, and militarism.
Having failed to meet local Serb residents, and by visiting the German military instead, Mrs Merkel's interview may well reinforce the message that "Germany is back to its old ways" - which presumably means that the German governement is becoming rigid and starting to resemble Hitler's regime during the WWII, which caused so much human missery in Serbia, Europe and the rest of the world.

Two options at that point, all out war in N.

Kosovo and about half the EU will never allow Kosovo into EU citing the same concern Germany points out now - can't allow a member with uncertain borders. Serbia's border at that point will be quite certain and defined. Kosovo's, not so much.

Now the Turks are saying that most of the Ottomans in Kosovo were 'Albanians' but we know this is not true. We know that the Ottomans were Turks and you caved into their rule because:
a) You couldn't beat the Serbs (righteously so) alone
b) You changed religion so you could EVADE taxes, just like Albanians commonly do in today's era, because Christians were made to pay taxes but Muslims did not under Ottoman rule.

I am late on board with this thread, and have not read any of the previous comments - but I must say, I am truly respectful of Germany's relationship with Kosovo Albanians. The two were allies during WWII, as was Croatia, an EU candidate and possibly next member, and the Germans continue decades later to support their historic allies. In that light, it is sad to see how the USA has treated its historic friends, mainly Serbia. For all the lives that the Serbs gave in fighting with the allies, and all the American lives that Serbs saved (The forgotten 500) during past wars, it is unbelievable how America turned it's back on it's friends. I want to believe that it is only the new generation of American politicians (Clinton/Bush) that behaved this way for their own advancements, and not as true statements. Roosevelt must be rolling in his grave. In any case, the Albanians are fortunate to have loyal powers at their side, while the Serbs are exploited by them, as usual.

A big German leader in the 1940th said the same about Russians, Americans, Brits and Frenchmen - without their intervention, there would have been peace in Europe.

Dear serbs:
balkan is very well known for lots of strange phenomena. Old women's gossiping is one one them....and you guys are the best example of such. You lost all possible wars and yet are crying over them. Please, do not be pathetic, the reality is clear as the sunshine, sometimes cover by clouds but you can still spot where the sun is.
And as for the future, be sure that Albanians have never ran away if there was a war, but they always confronted you in the battlefield. So no one is or will be scared of your pathetic woman threats!
Nevertheless, we have options out of it, its called EU. LEt's take the chance we never took in the past and cooperate, maybe we can build something good out of it....

What have you Albanians ever done that did not involve holding onto mother’s apron strings? From the Turks to the US today.
We went to war and held on to the best parts of the old Yugoslavia; what have your Albanians ever done apart from being recognized in this world as the greatest criminals in Europe. I laugh every time I read about the great Albanians winning the war against the Serbs in the 1990s. If I was an Albanian I would just shut my mouth because you won nothing. The so called Albanians fighters were thrashed on the balltlefield but mother had to help your cowards.
Are you stupid or just limited in your intellectual capacity? What EU? Its winding down and you expect to join and get money – where do you people live? Do you have TV or radio?
As Merkel said today she wants Serbia to open its borders for your Albanians to look for work in Serbia but how can you work for people who killed your relatives or tortured your mother and father?????? It just shows you the Albanians are the best liars today.

lol, just one question, once the Serbs were jailing innocent Slovenian journalists and the Serbs went over their border to "stabilize", what year was that? Or Croatia, or Bosnia or Kosovo...
(koko, 19 December 2011 16:38)
BTW it was YU liberal of Croatian ethnic background Ante Marcovic who sent troops to Slovenia and he was right to do so from the point of view of law and Balcan stability - premature Slovenian attempt to secede jeopardized Balcan stability.
BTW Milosevic was criticised very much by the West for NOT fighting seriose enough to keep Slovenia within YU.

It bet when Dorian reffers to Serbs as women, the people who edit this board gleefully chuckle with approval. But are they not ignoring thier own censorship criteria by allowing you to express this hateful opinion or are there in fact dual criteria, one for Serb and one for Albanian-we all know the latter is true.

'We Albanians say the lie hase short legs'
No offence Ben apart from the typo this sentence conjours up images of a barely clothed tribe emerging from a forest explaining to outsiders about their ancient customs.
Besides, that saying that I never use since Sloba himself used it at the Hague to belittle a crippled witness against him:

Kosovo is little - I wish my home town got as much effort expended on it as this pseudo state.
My mayor doesn't get to be called president - good thing too.
States are usually formed from nations - now long will identical ethnic nationals maintain two separate states which are adjacent? With open borders and a nationality split between two essentially mono-ethnic 'states'?
Kosovo is a false invention that will may succeed for a while because awkward things are made to work while sensible things don't attract interest.
I wish Merkel's understanding of both the Euro and Serbia was better - her policies are transients that are not going to work in the longer term.

Just wonder if Serbs would be granted the same freedom of speech on other internet forums like the Albo's,Cro's and other ethnic denominations do on this website...?
Also out of curiosity is there a country the Yanks have not stuck their noses in that has lead to death and destruction...?

hahaha Dorian Dorian I'm glad there are people in the world like you to keep me entertained.
Maybe you have Dorian Gray syndrome: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorian_Gray_syndrome
Now you're also changing the history books to say you were 'closer' with Turkey and 'brothers' with Turkey during your fight against Serbs in Kosovo.
Let's face it, you changed to Islam to 'survive' because you didn't have the nuts Serbs did to fight the Ottomans.
Now the Turks are saying that most of the Ottomans in Kosovo were 'Albanians' but we know this is not true. We know that the Ottomans were Turks and you caved into their rule because:
a) You couldn't beat the Serbs (righteously so) alone
b) You changed religion so you could EVADE taxes, just like Albanians commonly do in today's era, because Christians were made to pay taxes but Muslims did not under Ottoman rule.
c) You couldn't beat the Serbs alone.. oh i already said this, i know, but I had to remind you :)
Thanks for comin'

Merkel -> abolish the local parallel structures.
However, German Ambassador to Serbia Wolfram Mass stated that the conclusions of the European Council on Serbia's preconditions for the EU candidate status did not mention abolishment of the so-called parallel - i.e., Serbian - institutions in northern Kosovo.

In any case, the Albanians are fortunate to have loyal powers at their side, while the Serbs are exploited by them, as usual. But will history repeat itself again? I feel it will.

If I were Mrs Merkel's advisor, and an uber-democrat, I would first ask Russians and Americans what they think of so-called Albanian independent Kosovo.
Then I would ask the Kosovo Serbs, who resist so-called Albanian bandit independent Kosovo what they think.
Mrs Merkel's interview in Pristina may well be remembered in years to come as exposing her lack of empathy or soft touch, and for reinforcing her rigidity, ruslesness, and militarism.
Having failed to meet local Serb residents, and by visiting the German military instead, Mrs Merkel's interview may well reinforce the message that "Germany is back to its old ways" - which presumably means that the German governement is becoming rigid and starting to resemble Hitler's regime during the WWII, which caused so much human missery in Serbia, Europe and the rest of the world.

It is very nice to see that the well planed Russian/Serbian attempt to isolate politically Thaci has failed miserably. !!!!!!!!!!!
what make you think that has failed? It has been postponed. Merkel and you yankees friends are the organ buyers this explain why they don't want the truth to come out but I will join your saying that the lie has short legs. It will come even if it will be later, after Merkel's and Obama's departures.
What is shocking me most is to see the top nazi leader shaking hands with top mafia boss thaci. I'll make a copy for the history. It is the same as Canadian general Dallaire wrote about his shaking hands with the devil in Rwanda. Same scenario only Dallaire was for protection of innocent civilian people... here Merkel is protecting the devil.
Really shameful frau Merkel.

"The German media say that Merkel told Serbia loud and clear that the reason Germany did not support Serbia’s EU candidate status was wounding of two German troops in northern Kosovo."
Only an IDIOT would believed that. The Serbian people is aware that Merkel and her Germany want Serbia to give up the fight for Kosovo in exchange for an EU seat.

The Bundeskanzlerin is getting a little too far ahead of herself. Remember she is the chancellor of Germany.
I'm happy that she got to see what happened to the Germans that provoked our citizens. Perhaps she maybe understands the value of human life and realises that KFOR did not act responsibly by antagonising the Serbs and this was the result.
We resisted you & your country (proudly) on so many occasions in the past, why do you think we are going to listen to you and cave in to your demands now?
I find it fascinating that history always seems to repeat itself.

Typical merkel, one sided view. Serbia should give,give,give, while Pristina take,take,take. Merkel, How about condeming Pristina's unilateral actions toward the north?? Did you demand that from Taci??
Merkel is just giving orders to Serbia but do not follow up with orders for Pristina. Typical elitist.

A big German leader went to war over territories to which Germany had absolutely NO legitimate claim, while Serbia participated in the wars over really very disputed territories or over legitimate Serbian territories.

I feel sad when I read all this comments from people in this forum. How can you use this sort of language, I don’t get the entire philosophy. Some of the people use sarcastic and childish comments in regard to Merkel visit to Kosovo such an offensive language as “going to Kosovo for organs” and other crab like this. I’m getting tired of this forum. It used to be more about intellectual comments and different points of view but now it is turned to be just a place where people express their hate against each other. It’s a shame that people still use this sort of language in the times we live in. Dear Serbs, there are no organ removal institutions in Kosovo. Wake up and realize that your clock is leaking water and is broken. You need to fix it, sooner its better as you are running out of time. You should understand and perhaps you should support Kosovo independence because based on the language that I see in here, you just cannot live with Albanians anymore. To those people that use different names and claim to be of other entities get a life as no one outside of been Serb or Albanian cares about Kosovo or what happens in Serbia.

Dear Milan,
Unfortunately you did not read my comment correctly, I never referred to anyone as women, but the way you are dealing with the issue in general its like the "women's gossiping"....anyways, I think you got the point but decided to interpretate it the way you wanted to! Nevertheless there is a reality on Kosovo no one can deny, as there is one in Serbia, in Albania, Macedonia or in any other Balkan state!
And there is one also in northern kosovo where thousands of people are suffering because of fake promisses from the State you live in. Let's not allow people to suffer anymore but let's build the way towards a joint cooperation to change the situation for better!
