Yes, and they sometimes changes their opinion who has to be on the list of terrorist, and removed the name T...i from it :)

Sometimes intelligence resourses are able to find out that you have been given false information. Up until the mid nineties all intell from Yugoslavia was flowing through Serbia, it is a shame that the term terrorists is reserved for those who oppose a govt and not for govt that impose terror.

Think about it. We could argue forever about what happened in Kosovo since the end of ww2. A truth and reconcialtion commission is the only way to see it in the round.

I suppose you are referring to the same judge that all Serb police, paramilitary, and citizens who participated in the ill treatment of the Albanians in Kosovo will also face.
In addition to those who supported them before and after. Justice will be served, if not in this life, in the next.

I am glad by your own admission publicly , you are talking for over 100G K-Serbs south of Ibar, and you are not counting K-Serbs north of Ibar. At least you set the record straight, that ; it is not a handful of K-Serbs south of Ibar.

(Agim Kelmendi, 8 July 2012 22:25)

Right on the Money Agim when Serbian Presidential Election where Held I put the number of Displaced Serbs about 10K Mike did not agree with me. 119K Serbs eligible to vote in Last Election In Kosovo Meaning if you take people 11months to 17 years old not eligible to vote that easily brings it to 150 to 160K Serbs present in Kosovo. 50K Police and military + Wives + Children about 80K Serbs = 240K Serbs in kosovo before War.

Game is over Serbs have to live in Kosovo and thats all most do and moving on with their life getting passports etc, some choose to move to beograd after getting scholarships as minority in Kosovo and there are many who go to USA get MBA and move to Beograd this is voluntary migration.

Time to find Solutions how to move together we are neighbors like it or not and sooner we realize better for US, Germany and France have fought bloodier wars and today share many same visions and you dont see people bashing each other, Same for Scandinavians .... time for Balkans hope we could take a page from Scandinavia and change 180deg become peace loving societies and Mike can attest as he lives in Sweden.

Finally, not only was the bombing illegal, WHAT they bombed us with was illegal. Uranium tipped bombs, clusters, graphite bombs on the civilian power grids. There is no grey area here. It's black and white. it was against all the major laws, including moral ones. Will these people ever be brought to justice? Probably not, but there is one Judge they will not escape.

I hope the Serb officials will get his message. You will have to recognize Kosova, you will have to dismantle the criminal parallel structures in the north and you will have to build better relations with your neighbors. Unless Serbia fulfills those demands, there is no future for Serbia among civilized states.

Like George Bush was famous for saying, "We do not deal with terrorists", although he broke his own words when he visited Albania. In any case, Serbia has no problem with the Albanian people in Kosovo, and will negotiate with them, but never, under no circumstance, will Serbia ever sit down and talk with a known terrorist, mafia king pin, and suspected organ-harvestor, Hasim Thaci and members of his cabinet that were members of the KLA. If the USA wants to lay in the same bed with criminal terrorists, like they have in the past, till they gave them up, like Saddam and Bin Laden, they are welcome to the same with Thaci. (ecoman, 8 July 2012 13:45)

Ecoman cut the crap just for once. Stop acting as some sort of a logical moderate. The act no longer holds water. You have a problem with the Albanian people in general, not with a certain leader. You tell me which terrorist did George Bush meet when he visited Albania.Its time for you to come out of the closet and reveal yourself as the true bigot that you are.Your first sentence says everything that can be said about you.

Well considering that Kosovo* is neither democratic, sovereign, or independent, and multi-ethnic only because of severe institutional guarantees imposed by Ahtisaari and accepted very reluctantly by Albanians, I'd say this will be another useless trip by an American know-nothing. Maybe he should take a trip to his country's little failing pet project on south and attend the funerals of the murdered Jevtic family. Better yet, maybe he should stop by Kosovo's* northern region and find out why those inat-ridden Serbs are so resistant to choke on the sweet law and order that is Kosovo*.

What you should be doing Mr. Assistance whatever, is put the screws to Pristina in solving the murder if innocent Kosovo returnees. You have allowed Pristina to operate like a criminal, mafia State, yet all you do is put pressure on Serbia.

"but added that all their efforts would be aimed at indirect recognition."

A indirect recognition of Kosovo and a direct recognition of Kosovo. What's the difference? Same s***, different package. If Belgrade really intends to unofficially recongize Kosovo they should stop playing around and recognize the damn thing. The more frequent american visits to Serbia could indicate that something is in the making. I just hope the Serbian government is ready to house the 100.000 serbs who will leave Kosovo once they unofficially "recongize" Kosovo.

Maybe he can tell us the ordnance NATO dropped on Yugoslavia and what it consisted of. No lies please. Then they can send a medical team to assess whether there has been a spike in paediatric cancers and whether the chromosome of the population has been altered irreversibly. When they find the answer they can apologise to the Serbian people and offer compensation. We will then decide whether to prosecute them for crimes against humanity.

You know since everyone here paints the US as totally powerless and running scared now. What is that phrase "running away with their tail tucked between their legs". And they are broke, so there is no chance of any aid coming Serbia's way. One has to wonder why the visit of an Assistant Secretary of State would warrant so many news articles.

Game is over Serbs have to live in Kosovo and thats all most do and moving on with their life getting passports etc, some choose to move to beograd after getting scholarships as minority in Kosovo and there are many who go to USA get MBA and move to Beograd this is voluntary migration.

Time to find Solutions how to move together we are neighbors like it or not and sooner we realize better for US, Germany and France have fought bloodier wars and today share many same visions and you dont see people bashing each other, Same for Scandinavians .... time for Balkans hope we could take a page from Scandinavia and change 180deg become peace loving societies and Mike can attest as he lives in Sweden.

Finally, not only was the bombing illegal, WHAT they bombed us with was illegal. Uranium tipped bombs, clusters, graphite bombs on the civilian power grids. There is no grey area here. It's black and white. it was against all the major laws, including moral ones. Will these people ever be brought to justice? Probably not, but there is one Judge they will not escape.

I suppose you are referring to the same judge that all Serb police, paramilitary, and citizens who participated in the ill treatment of the Albanians in Kosovo will also face.
In addition to those who supported them before and after. Justice will be served, if not in this life, in the next.

You are right

Yes, and they sometimes changes their opinion who has to be on the list of terrorist, and removed the name T...i from it :)

Sometimes intelligence resourses are able to find out that you have been given false information. Up until the mid nineties all intell from Yugoslavia was flowing through Serbia, it is a shame that the term terrorists is reserved for those who oppose a govt and not for govt that impose terror.

When it comes to the American policy of "we do not negotiate with terrorists", Americans decide who is terrorist and who is not. Not Serbs.

Think about it. We could argue forever about what happened in Kosovo since the end of ww2. A truth and reconcialtion commission is the only way to see it in the round.
