The serious problem with people is they are so brainwashed with the US being the greatest they can’t see the trees for the forest. Whether you like it or not the US is in retreat and that is what redeployment means in this instance.
(sj, 2 October 2012 14:55)

Yeah, people really can't see the facts and brilliance of the economic, financial and political analysis of you who are the CE of the B92 forums. I'm so desperate I don't know what else we can do to illuminate with such analysis the ignorance that reigns in these forums and around the world.

In any case, sj please don't get discouraged - the fight against the ignorance should continue and your role in that fight is invaluable .

Hey I was born, educated and have family in that country. My wife is an Australian. My children were born there and I know the politics of that land and the politicians like the back of my hand.
What do you think redeployment means?????? And what can the US do with 2,500 marines? In this region NOTHING, ABSOLUTLY NOTHING. It’s all for show. If they want to make a difference they should have made a base in Taiwan or Malaysia or perhaps stayed in the Philippines.
Australia is the bottom part of South East Asia and 2500 marines could not stop a bar brawl let alone take any action. Get a map of the region and have a good look – it is tropical conditions and there are over 1000 islands in the Indonesia alone. You could have 1000 000 troops with the entire six US fleets and you would still have trouble controlling that region so what are 2,500 going to do?

So what are you afraid of if I am writing nonsense? Why bother replying is that is the case as I would only be fooling the Serbs on this site
sj,
I really do not know why I bother, there is no changing you. Maybe it is because I have known so many like you before. Or maybe it is the extent you will go to try to make yourself legitimate. Or maybe I just want to make sure the Albanians on this site are aware that we are there for them.
By the way recheck your "facts" on the Australian deployment! And thanks to a great American ally.

Yes it all going to be kept open meanwhile back in the US the debt gets higher and higher – its already 120% of GDP. Then there is the best part where over the next decade the US will reduce its borrowings by 2 trillion, but it still needs to borrow to maintain the current level of living standards.

To start properly the US would need to stop borrowing 1 trilion per year now, which would mean either no military or yes you have one but no living standards and poverty on a scale not seen before in a first world country.

Now the last part is the best. Your trying to tell me about Australia. Its the US that was pushing Canberra for a “base’ although how the US would pay for it I don’t know unless they would try and force the Australians.

So who said no to that idea? China. 2500 marines is a token effort because they couldn’t stop a brawl in a bar – its all smoke and mirrors for US public image mate.

The world’s all time loser, the US, is using Darwin for “training” purposes. I’d get new trainers if I was the Pentagon as the US has been trained right out of South East Asia.

Do you just sit down at the computer and say what nonsense can I write today, or do you think that your fellow Serbians do not have the sense to know better.
South Korea has approx 20,000 army personnel throw in Navy, Air Force, Marines and it is 28,500 in a foreign country that has not been at war for 60 years. US is committed to protecting Japan and Japan pays somewhere around 2 billion dollars a year to the US, there is currently more than 35,000 troops. Diego Garcia is going no where as it is strategic to operations in the Mid East.
Australia wanted the US to have a foothold there in case need arises but not a full fleged base as not to jeopardize economic relations with China so they are allowing 2500 US personnel to rotate in and out for "training" purposes.

In the reality partition will be the best option for Kosovo Serbs and Albanians, Kosovo will then be able to unify with Albania but question is why is the west so set on putting up this propaganda of a multi-ethnic Kosovo, it doesn't benefit anyone not Albania, not Serbia. Kosovo and Serbia should have just come to an agreement on independence from the very beginning (1990) instead of doing it in a way which would cause all those wars and now they are both guaranteeing a new future war.

Hashim Thaçi better be careful what he says that there will be no partition as that can turn out to be a reality and Kosovo can be a semi-recognized limbo like Western Sahara or Taiwan for decades to come or Serbia may decide to take the whole of Kosovo if there is a power shift, arguments like there will never be a power shift or keep dreaming don't stick as the world is unpredictable. Also Northern Kosovo, still being part of Kosovo allows Serbs to move to other parts of Kosovo allowing more areas to join Serbia. I don't think Trepča is the reason either because no one, not even the west is mining in those allegedly resource rich areas and the west doesn't seem to care about them, besides the largest mine is in Southern Mitrovica controlled by Albanians. The reason for pushing for a multi-ethnic Kosovo in my opinion is so there can be minorities which the west pretends to be protecting so they can keep their military in Kosovo which is in close proximity to Russia and the middle east.

RS will go to Serbia, Hercegovina will go to Croatia, Northern Epirus will go back to Greece, Skadar will go to Montenegro, Montenegro will go to Serbia. Macedonia will go to Bulgaria, Serbia will keep Kosovo. Albanians will become a displaced minority in Europe running towards Tirana. It will be worse than the Greek population exchange in 1922.

"Kosovo means more to us then you. It's reflected in our historical and cultural footprint which is much more evident in the province. You will quickly forget about Kosovo in Germany or Austria. Go west Albanians, go west."

-- We were ethnically cleansed, our houses were destroyed, we had no government, we had no jobs, we had no money, yet we came back.
You have a government that pays you to do nothing, builds you houses, and yet you refuse to return. How much does it really mean to you when you refuse to return?

Kosova is in our history books too. Why are your books more valuable than ours, because they're yours?

In the backrooms of the parliaments of Brussels, Washington, Moscow, Belgrade and in the smokey dirty poolhall Thaci makes his decisions in, I think politicians quietly acknowledging that splitting Kosovo into two might be a solution. I think all sides are just looking for the right time to break that news to their citizens.

Of course only the west can print money to their hearts contend and nothing will happen because there is freedom and democracy in their hearts.
The US as December 2012:
17 Trillion in debt or 120% of GDP plus 117 trillion in unfunded liabilities hanging around its neck.
Kicked out of South East Asia, had to relocate to Australia, but China will only allow the US 2500 marines to be stationed in Darwin
South Korea had 50,000 troops today it’s less than 20,000 and reducing with each ration.
Okinawa will be abandoned.
Diego Garcia will be closed in 2014.
The US is being kicked out of the Pacific region. It’s ally, Australia, has lost influence in all of the Pacific island nations that matter, starting with Fiji, as the Chinese have moved in.
US lost the war in Iraq, while NATO lost in Afghanistan with now 2500 dead to date and leaving by 2014.
Yes it’s all in our dreams and if we stop talking about it the bad man will go away and leave the Albanians waiting g for the US/EU to plant money trees in Kosovo backyards.

Due to an inability to negotiate a budget, the us government will be forced to make cuts on Jan 1, 2013.
(JohnBoy, 30 September 2012 21:20)

Where have you been the last 50-100 years or more? There are many times the budget has not been passed until the last minute, and many times they have had to enact emergency funding, even a few times they have closed non essential offices for a couple of days in order to pass the budget. It is a game especially in an election year, there is no way a budget was going to pass before election day.
As far as, running out of money. You Serbs keep hanging on to that hope, all we have to do is wait, maybe you should not be focusing your dreams on the west going broke and look around you, your politicians are clutching onto the drain grate to keep from be sucked down. Yes they have secured several several loans in the last few weeks, enough that they will not have to reduce THEIR lifestyle over the next few months but no enough to impact yours.
You better hope that the west does not run out of money to the point they can no longer help Kosovo, because that only means that Serbia as you know it is no more.

I see the US finally got around to writing up a response for him to publicly deliver. Oh well, nothing we haven't heard before: no partition because of a precedent that was already set by granting Kosovo* quasi independence; integration of northern Kosovo into the most dysfunctional and corrupt political system in Europe; faulty statistics on the number of recognitions; and a quick dismissal of fact and figures gathered from various IGOs and NGOs because it hurts his "image". I'll say, Kosovo* has suffered more under him and his ilk than under Milosevic, but I have to love this little guy. The more he remains America's sock puppet, the more Kosovo remains a bad joke. The minute society strings him up and elects serious officials (no, not that idiot Kurti, though Kosovo* will probably have to go through more misery under him before the people wise up - if they haven't managed to buy a one-way ticket out by then) is the minute we have to start worrying. But then, America can't stand client states with leaders who exhibit independent thinking and by that point, "normalization of relations" will bring further concessions for us by them for the sake international pressure to "stabilize" another region they were primarily responsible for destabilizing a decade or more before :)

Due to what would probably happen to esp Bosnia, there is a greater chance for Serbia to North Kosovo as a province of Kosovo than a partition.

The deal is obvious: independence for N. Kosovo in exchange for recognition of Kosova.
If it is to be partition, then Kosovo should really be partitioned: the villages between Prizren and Strpca can choose Serbia or Kosova, same choice for the Gorani.

I see the US finally got around to writing up a response for him to publicly deliver. Oh well, nothing we haven't heard before: no partition because of a precedent that was already set by granting Kosovo* quasi independence; integration of northern Kosovo into the most dysfunctional and corrupt political system in Europe; faulty statistics on the number of recognitions; and a quick dismissal of fact and figures gathered from various IGOs and NGOs because it hurts his "image". I'll say, Kosovo* has suffered more under him and his ilk than under Milosevic, but I have to love this little guy. The more he remains America's sock puppet, the more Kosovo remains a bad joke. The minute society strings him up and elects serious officials (no, not that idiot Kurti, though Kosovo* will probably have to go through more misery under him before the people wise up - if they haven't managed to buy a one-way ticket out by then) is the minute we have to start worrying. But then, America can't stand client states with leaders who exhibit independent thinking and by that point, "normalization of relations" will bring further concessions for us by them for the sake international pressure to "stabilize" another region they were primarily responsible for destabilizing a decade or more before :)

It is a game especially in an election year, there is no way a budget was going to pass before election day.
As far as, running out of money. You Serbs keep hanging on to that hope, all we have to do is wait, maybe you should not be focusing your dreams on the west going broke and look around you, your politicians are clutching onto the drain grate to keep from be sucked down. Yes they have secured several several loans in the last few weeks, enough that they will not have to reduce THEIR lifestyle over the next few months but no enough to impact yours.

South Korea has approx 20,000 army personnel throw in Navy, Air Force, Marines and it is 28,500 in a foreign country that has not been at war for 60 years. US is committed to protecting Japan and Japan pays somewhere around 2 billion dollars a year to the US, there is currently more than 35,000 troops. Diego Garcia is going no where as it is strategic to operations in the Mid East.
Australia wanted the US to have a foothold there in case need arises but not a full fleged base as not to jeopardize economic relations with China so they are allowing 2500 US personnel to rotate in and out for "training" purposes.

Hashmat

In the reality partition will be the best option for Kosovo Serbs and Albanians, Kosovo will then be able to unify with Albania but question is why is the west so set on putting up this propaganda of a multi-ethnic Kosovo, it doesn't benefit anyone not Albania, not Serbia. Kosovo and Serbia should have just come to an agreement on independence from the very beginning (1990) instead of doing it in a way which would cause all those wars and now they are both guaranteeing a new future war.

Hashim Thaçi better be careful what he says that there will be no partition as that can turn out to be a reality and Kosovo can be a semi-recognized limbo like Western Sahara or Taiwan for decades to come or Serbia may decide to take the whole of Kosovo if there is a power shift, arguments like there will never be a power shift or keep dreaming don't stick as the world is unpredictable. Also Northern Kosovo, still being part of Kosovo allows Serbs to move to other parts of Kosovo allowing more areas to join Serbia. I don't think Trepča is the reason either because no one, not even the west is mining in those allegedly resource rich areas and the west doesn't seem to care about them, besides the largest mine is in Southern Mitrovica controlled by Albanians. The reason for pushing for a multi-ethnic Kosovo in my opinion is so there can be minorities which the west pretends to be protecting so they can keep their military in Kosovo which is in close proximity to Russia and the middle east.

Yes it all going to be kept open meanwhile back in the US the debt gets higher and higher – its already 120% of GDP. Then there is the best part where over the next decade the US will reduce its borrowings by 2 trillion, but it still needs to borrow to maintain the current level of living standards.

To start properly the US would need to stop borrowing 1 trilion per year now, which would mean either no military or yes you have one but no living standards and poverty on a scale not seen before in a first world country.

Now the last part is the best. Your trying to tell me about Australia. Its the US that was pushing Canberra for a “base’ although how the US would pay for it I don’t know unless they would try and force the Australians.

So who said no to that idea? China. 2500 marines is a token effort because they couldn’t stop a brawl in a bar – its all smoke and mirrors for US public image mate.

Australia is the bottom part of South East Asia and 2500 marines could not stop a bar brawl let alone take any action. Get a map of the region and have a good look – it is tropical conditions and there are over 1000 islands in the Indonesia alone. You could have 1000 000 troops with the entire six US fleets and you would still have trouble controlling that region so what are 2,500 going to do?

The pseudo-statelet of kosovo is dying and this criminal knows it. His mob rule has not progressed 1 centimeter in 13 years and cannot move without permission from Serbia. The west is running out of money to support this BS. Due to an inability to negotiate a budget, the us government will be forced to make cuts on Jan 1, 2013. With liberals and conservatives fighting over which piece of the pie they have to give up, where do you think trash policies like kosovo end up? The Serbs learned well from the Vietnamese - just keep fighting and the us will have to give up when they run out of money.

“That will never happen. Partition implies changing the borders for a minimum six countries," Thaci stressed.

He's almost right. Because partition means a mutual agreement, which means Kosovo becomes a recognized state, which means there will be new state borders between Kosovo the neighboring countries, i.e. Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania and Serbia. How he can come up with 6 countries when Kosovo has only four neighbors must be Kosovarian mathematics by Mr 'elected by 115% of the voters'.

Thaci says nothing new - he simply states the position going into negotiations.
The deal is obvious: independence for N. Kosovo in exchange for recognition of Kosova.
If it is to be partition, then Kosovo should really be partitioned: the villages between Prizren and Strpca can choose Serbia or Kosova, same choice for the Gorani.
Of course, not many people care about what the people on the ground want.
The Serbian and Albanian extremists, Putin, the terrified EU, the Islamic lunatics: none of them are interested in a fair resolution.

I see the US finally got around to writing up a response for him to publicly deliver. Oh well, nothing we haven't heard before: no partition because of a precedent that was already set by granting Kosovo* quasi independence; integration of northern Kosovo into the most dysfunctional and corrupt political system in Europe; faulty statistics on the number of recognitions; and a quick dismissal of fact and figures gathered from various IGOs and NGOs because it hurts his "image". I'll say, Kosovo* has suffered more under him and his ilk than under Milosevic, but I have to love this little guy. The more he remains America's sock puppet, the more Kosovo remains a bad joke. The minute society strings him up and elects serious officials (no, not that idiot Kurti, though Kosovo* will probably have to go through more misery under him before the people wise up - if they haven't managed to buy a one-way ticket out by then) is the minute we have to start worrying. But then, America can't stand client states with leaders who exhibit independent thinking and by that point, "normalization of relations" will bring further concessions for us by them for the sake international pressure to "stabilize" another region they were primarily responsible for destabilizing a decade or more before :)

The US as December 2012:
17 Trillion in debt or 120% of GDP plus 117 trillion in unfunded liabilities hanging around its neck.
Kicked out of South East Asia, had to relocate to Australia, but China will only allow the US 2500 marines to be stationed in Darwin
South Korea had 50,000 troops today it’s less than 20,000 and reducing with each ration.
Okinawa will be abandoned.
Diego Garcia will be closed in 2014.
The US is being kicked out of the Pacific region. It’s ally, Australia, has lost influence in all of the Pacific island nations that matter, starting with Fiji, as the Chinese have moved in.
US lost the war in Iraq, while NATO lost in Afghanistan with now 2500 dead to date and leaving by 2014.

Due to what would probably happen to esp Bosnia, there is a greater chance for Serbia to North Kosovo as a province of Kosovo than a partition.
If Kosovo has the money to buy all the recognitions as many of you claim, they could come up with enough to buy Serbia. After all it will soon be on the block at bargain basement prices.

Where have you been the last 50-100 years or more? There are many times the budget has not been passed until the last minute, and many times they have had to enact emergency funding, even a few times they have closed non essential offices for a couple of days in order to pass the budget. It is a game especially in an election year, there is no way a budget was going to pass before election day.
As far as, running out of money. You Serbs keep hanging on to that hope, all we have to do is wait, maybe you should not be focusing your dreams on the west going broke and look around you, your politicians are clutching onto the drain grate to keep from be sucked down. Yes they have secured several several loans in the last few weeks, enough that they will not have to reduce THEIR lifestyle over the next few months but no enough to impact yours.
You better hope that the west does not run out of money to the point they can no longer help Kosovo, because that only means that Serbia as you know it is no more.

"Kosovo means more to us then you. It's reflected in our historical and cultural footprint which is much more evident in the province. You will quickly forget about Kosovo in Germany or Austria. Go west Albanians, go west."

-- We were ethnically cleansed, our houses were destroyed, we had no government, we had no jobs, we had no money, yet we came back.
You have a government that pays you to do nothing, builds you houses, and yet you refuse to return. How much does it really mean to you when you refuse to return?

Kosova is in our history books too. Why are your books more valuable than ours, because they're yours?

In the backrooms of the parliaments of Brussels, Washington, Moscow, Belgrade and in the smokey dirty poolhall Thaci makes his decisions in, I think politicians quietly acknowledging that splitting Kosovo into two might be a solution. I think all sides are just looking for the right time to break that news to their citizens.

Hashmat

pre 11 godina

In the reality partition will be the best option for Kosovo Serbs and Albanians, Kosovo will then be able to unify with Albania but question is why is the west so set on putting up this propaganda of a multi-ethnic Kosovo, it doesn't benefit anyone not Albania, not Serbia. Kosovo and Serbia should have just come to an agreement on independence from the very beginning (1990) instead of doing it in a way which would cause all those wars and now they are both guaranteeing a new future war.

Hashim Thaçi better be careful what he says that there will be no partition as that can turn out to be a reality and Kosovo can be a semi-recognized limbo like Western Sahara or Taiwan for decades to come or Serbia may decide to take the whole of Kosovo if there is a power shift, arguments like there will never be a power shift or keep dreaming don't stick as the world is unpredictable. Also Northern Kosovo, still being part of Kosovo allows Serbs to move to other parts of Kosovo allowing more areas to join Serbia. I don't think Trepča is the reason either because no one, not even the west is mining in those allegedly resource rich areas and the west doesn't seem to care about them, besides the largest mine is in Southern Mitrovica controlled by Albanians. The reason for pushing for a multi-ethnic Kosovo in my opinion is so there can be minorities which the west pretends to be protecting so they can keep their military in Kosovo which is in close proximity to Russia and the middle east.

Serbia should try its best to enter the EU, if for the only reason that the citizens of Kosovo will have a green light to migrate to the west, in the same way that they originally came to Kosovo i Metohija in search of greener pastures.

Do you just sit down at the computer and say what nonsense can I write today, or do you think that your fellow Serbians do not have the sense to know better.
South Korea has approx 20,000 army personnel throw in Navy, Air Force, Marines and it is 28,500 in a foreign country that has not been at war for 60 years. US is committed to protecting Japan and Japan pays somewhere around 2 billion dollars a year to the US, there is currently more than 35,000 troops. Diego Garcia is going no where as it is strategic to operations in the Mid East.
Australia wanted the US to have a foothold there in case need arises but not a full fleged base as not to jeopardize economic relations with China so they are allowing 2500 US personnel to rotate in and out for "training" purposes.

So what are you afraid of if I am writing nonsense? Why bother replying is that is the case as I would only be fooling the Serbs on this site.

Yes it all going to be kept open meanwhile back in the US the debt gets higher and higher – its already 120% of GDP. Then there is the best part where over the next decade the US will reduce its borrowings by 2 trillion, but it still needs to borrow to maintain the current level of living standards.

To start properly the US would need to stop borrowing 1 trilion per year now, which would mean either no military or yes you have one but no living standards and poverty on a scale not seen before in a first world country.

Now the last part is the best. Your trying to tell me about Australia. Its the US that was pushing Canberra for a “base’ although how the US would pay for it I don’t know unless they would try and force the Australians.

So who said no to that idea? China. 2500 marines is a token effort because they couldn’t stop a brawl in a bar – its all smoke and mirrors for US public image mate.

The world’s all time loser, the US, is using Darwin for “training” purposes. I’d get new trainers if I was the Pentagon as the US has been trained right out of South East Asia.

What do you think redeployment means?????? And what can the US do with 2,500 marines? In this region NOTHING, ABSOLUTLY NOTHING. It’s all for show. If they want to make a difference they should have made a base in Taiwan or Malaysia or perhaps stayed in the Philippines.
Australia is the bottom part of South East Asia and 2500 marines could not stop a bar brawl let alone take any action. Get a map of the region and have a good look – it is tropical conditions and there are over 1000 islands in the Indonesia alone. You could have 1000 000 troops with the entire six US fleets and you would still have trouble controlling that region so what are 2,500 going to do?
The serious problem with people is they are so brainwashed with the US being the greatest they can’t see the trees for the forest. Whether you like it or not the US is in retreat and that is what redeployment means in this instance.
