Yeah, I think glorifying a loss as the main thing for a country is a bit foreign to me and most of the rest of the world. But you are certainly free to continue with the loss...

==================================
What the He!l is wrong with you?
Did you not understnd my post or are you so hell bent on being a thorn in anyone's side?

I just said that Australia celebrates Anzac day every year and that was a huge loss for Australia and NZ.

The rest of the world does celebrate bravery and sacrifice of their soldiers whether they won or lost. It seems to be only you Albanians who forget your fallen ones if they don't win.

“Of course borrowing it is not free. And then what ?! Should borrowing and benefits there from stop, especially now that the interest rates are at record low? But I do understand where you're coming from - if I were to hate somebody I'd obviously give them a bad advice.”

And then what, you ask? Why ask me, I’m not the one saddled with all those interest payments. Ask those in the Yankee electorate, but do forgive them should they explode with expletives, won't you? Because however low the rates, they should still amount to a humongous amount given the size of the humongous debt incurred by their government.

“I’m happy that we are agreeing that you should not follow my example because as I said it is not a good one to follow.

“I'm sorry for the Chinese being in a financial cesspool, but I'm sure that in a few years they'll be able to reach the living standards of Serbia and, in a few decades, those of the developed countries.”

Well, from all my posts so far, it should be pretty obvious that I was referring to the Yankee financial cesspool. In case you are still conveniently in doubt, let me make it clear now – it’s the Yankees’ $16.4 trillion financial cesspool.

And oh, the major owners of Yankee government debt are the Yankee people themselves – poor things – having such a spendthrift government building spaceships (I’m taking j’s word for it of course), giving foreign “aid” to the likes of “Kosova”, waging wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and where else instead of spending all these money only on the electorate that elected them, etc, and THEN having to pay most of the interest on this humongous debt out of their own pockets via taxation (you honestly didn’t thought the borrowing was free did you?)

“That's exactly what I meant that you don't a da*n about my borrowing habits because as I said I'm not borrowing as much as I'd have wanted to so I'm not a good example to follow.

(Peggy, 26 January 2013 01:56)

Fair enough... I think the same because being a UN member would give me a chance to freely enter the UN building which I like so much to see. Unfortunately me and you, being individuals, will never be able to become UN members. It's a shame that countries like Kosovo, etc... don't value the UN membership as much as me and you do - they don't understand what they are missing, above all the privilege of being in the same room with Vuk.

However, the entire world knows that the Hague is a political cangaroo court. Even you know that. The Hague is no measurement to who the bad guy of the balkans is.

Kosovo's UN seat does not depend on Serbia but on Russia and China. They can act more serbs than the serbs themselves if they want, but for as long as it is Serbia that begs them for their support,Serbia is the one held responsible for blocking Kosovo's UN membership.As a consequence Serbia will be punished by being kept out of EU. And that is where your UN upper hand ends. Kosovo on the other end can continue the slow process of getting more recognitions until it gets the same UN status as Vatican and Palestine. Once again, if Serbs cannot stand each other to the point that they decide to split in to Serbia and Montenegro then is just logical that Albanians in Kosovo do the same and split from Serbia. Somehow serbs have this idea that they have the right to rule over Albanians and that they can gain by being in an eternal conflict with us.You have been proven wrong.

Not trying to be offensive here, but your comment shows a lack of basic understanding of Serbian history. How can anyone hope to claim that they are UN worthy country when an organ trader is a prime minister?? But i do understand your position considering that you are a Kosovo Albanian... As soon as neoliberal political order fall flat on its face, an US with it, the dream of Great Albany (current Albany + Kosovo + part of Montenegro + part of Macedonia) will end.

As said k-albanians, not albanians. Besides, Mother Theresa was so proud to be albanian that she decided to help people in India instead of people in Albania. And, she wanted to be put in her final restinplace in India, not Albania. That's what a patriot she was.

Yes, and Kosovo is very happy about that because those foreign troops and foreign administrators are not Serbian - that's the whole point; Kosovo is independent from Serbia. If you're saying that Kosovo is not independent from, say, US, that's great - Kosovo is fine with not being independent from US.

God you people grasp at straws at some of the most ridicules things. The German can yap all he likes but if his statement was correct then why the EU doesn’t take this matter to the UN – I’ll tell you why the EU does not because there are members that have not recognized Kosovo and there the EU body can do nothing. That does not say that individual countries cannot take issues up but on their own.
Before you Albanians piss in your pants with joy, yes it can be discussed as they can discuss climate change or Zoroastrianism or even Buddhism – nothing is off the table, but the answer to a UN seat is NO and NO to recognition from Belgrade.
If the above mysterious diplomat’s statement was correct this would have been over in 2002.

I love how the German ambassador used his diplomatic surgical knife on Dacic (who by the way looks cute in this outfit).
Basically, the German ambassador didnt change anything from his original statement. The core of his message in the original statement was that "UN seat for Kosovo should be a subject of discussion between the two groups in Brussels". Today he is saying (according to tanjug) that his statements were exagerated, but then again proceeds to say exactly what he originally said, and that is that the two sides should discuss this topic in Brussels as this is an important issue for Kosovo. This might sound less bitter to the general Serbian public, but to me if anything it is actually more harsh than the original statement, because here you have the German ambassador telling Dacic what is important to Kosovo and therefore this must be discussed. It almost comes across as if the German ambassador is protecting the interests of Kosovo.

Take it how you want it, but inevetibly there WILL be a recognition of independence by Serbia whether it likes it or not.

Well, from all my posts so far, it should be pretty obvious that I was referring to the Yankee financial cesspool. In case you are still conveniently in doubt, let me make it clear now – it’s the Yankees’ $16.4 trillion financial cesspool.

And oh, the major owners of Yankee government debt are the Yankee people themselves – poor things – having such a spendthrift government building spaceships (I’m taking j’s word for it of course), giving foreign “aid” to the likes of “Kosova”, waging wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and where else instead of spending all these money only on the electorate that elected them, etc, and THEN having to pay most of the interest on this humongous debt out of their own pockets via taxation (you honestly didn’t thought the borrowing was free did you?)

And then what, you ask? Why ask me, I’m not the one saddled with all those interest payments. Ask those in the Yankee electorate, but do forgive them should they explode with expletives, won't you? Because however low the rates, they should still amount to a humongous amount given the size of the humongous debt incurred by their government.

I love how the German ambassador used his diplomatic surgical knife on Dacic (who by the way looks cute in this outfit).
Basically, the German ambassador didnt change anything from his original statement. The core of his message in the original statement was that "UN seat for Kosovo should be a subject of discussion between the two groups in Brussels". Today he is saying (according to tanjug) that his statements were exagerated, but then again proceeds to say exactly what he originally said, and that is that the two sides should discuss this topic in Brussels as this is an important issue for Kosovo. This might sound less bitter to the general Serbian public, but to me if anything it is actually more harsh than the original statement, because here you have the German ambassador telling Dacic what is important to Kosovo and therefore this must be discussed. It almost comes across as if the German ambassador is protecting the interests of Kosovo.

Not that I was expecting that MikeC or Peggy to change their attitude against Albanians, but just to clarify that we Albanians have a lot to be proud of, and the fact that Mother Teresa is Albanian is one. To tell the truth, having nobody in Hague Jails is not anything to be proud of, because, the rest of world have nobody either, but you Serbians has to be ashamed of that.

Of course... you're missing the point. Serbs celebrate the opposite of what others celebrate. Serbs like to celebrate defeats (like the famous 1389 one).

If I knew for a fact that those serbs in the Hague were there because they did something wrong then I would say they deserve to be there. However, the entire world knows that the Hague is a political cangaroo court. Even you know that. The Hague is no measurement to who the bad guy of the balkans is. The number of victims is proof to who the biggest victim is. You need to truly ask yourself why only serbs are locked up even thought so many albs, croats and muslims commited crimes.

We have Mother Teresa, and nobody in Hague Jails.
(gjon fusha, 25 January 2013 21:14)
-----------------------------
Mother Teresa came from Macedonia not Kosovo and yes nobody in Hague but many that should be.
In any case she is Albanian but not everyone thinks of her as heavenly.

Make sure you watch all three parts of this.

UN upper hand doesn't end anywhere because it can only end if UN ends.
Keeping Serbia out of EU is a blessing. English want to get out of EU and that doesn't tell you that EU should not even exist? Irish don't want it, and many don't want it. It is rammed down everyone's throat by their corrupt governments.

From where I am sitting, being out of UN is worse than being out of EU.

Kosovo's UN seat does not depend on Serbia but on Russia and China. They can act more serbs than the serbs themselves if they want, but for as long as it is Serbia that begs them for their support,Serbia is the one held responsible for blocking Kosovo's UN membership.As a consequence Serbia will be punished by being kept out of EU. And that is where your UN upper hand ends. Kosovo on the other end can continue the slow process of getting more recognitions until it gets the same UN status as Vatican and Palestine. Once again, if Serbs cannot stand each other to the point that they decide to split in to Serbia and Montenegro then is just logical that Albanians in Kosovo do the same and split from Serbia. Somehow serbs have this idea that they have the right to rule over Albanians and that they can gain by being in an eternal conflict with us.You have been proven wrong.
(Mark, 25 January 2013 20:52)

Not trying to be offensive here, but your comment shows a lack of basic understanding of Serbian history. How can anyone hope to claim that they are UN worthy country when an organ trader is a prime minister?? But i do understand your position considering that you are a Kosovo Albanian... As soon as neoliberal political order fall flat on its face, an US with it, the dream of Great Albany (current Albany + Kosovo + part of Montenegro + part of Macedonia) will end.

(Peggy, 26. januar 2013 01:56) The Irish are a very pro-EU nation. They rejected the Lisbon Treaty the first time round due to it's implications re Abortion. The Irish are a very Catholic people there tend to be very anti-abortion. When they had confirmation that the Lisbon Treaty wouldn't force Ireland to change their abortion laws, the happily accepted it.

No need for them to cut back for now... the Chinese and other investors are happy to provide the money at record low interest rates. Unfortunately, myself and the country where I live don't have the luxury to borrow at such low rates.

Fair enough... I think the same because being a UN member would give me a chance to freely enter the UN building which I like so much to see. Unfortunately me and you, being individuals, will never be able to become UN members. It's a shame that countries like Kosovo, etc... don't value the UN membership as much as me and you do - they don't understand what they are missing, above all the privilege of being in the same room with Vuk.

Illirians have left behind a lot while the most importnat heritage is ALBANIANS and the Albanian's language.

But if you are more into stones then feel free to visit say for e.g. an entire town of Byllis which is loceated just 5-6km from the samll town of Ballshi.

Or if you don't want to travel too much go and visit Ulpiana you know where it is right?? :)

Your comment didn't convince me of anything. You are asking me to visit certain places to see proof of the albanian/illyrian connection. I thought a link to a webbpage would do?

Well, from all my posts so far, it should be pretty obvious that I was referring to the Yankee financial cesspool. In case you are still conveniently in doubt, let me make it clear now – it’s the Yankees’ $16.4 trillion financial cesspool.

And oh, the major owners of Yankee government debt are the Yankee people themselves – poor things – having such a spendthrift government building spaceships (I’m taking j’s word for it of course), giving foreign “aid” to the likes of “Kosova”, waging wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and where else instead of spending all these money only on the electorate that elected them, etc, and THEN having to pay most of the interest on this humongous debt out of their own pockets via taxation (you honestly didn’t thought the borrowing was free did you?)

And then what, you ask? Why ask me, I’m not the one saddled with all those interest payments. Ask those in the Yankee electorate, but do forgive them should they explode with expletives, won't you? Because however low the rates, they should still amount to a humongous amount given the size of the humongous debt incurred by their government.

“I’m happy that we are agreeing that you should not follow my example because as I said it is not a good one to follow.

Who said anything about agreeing with you? I only stated that I couldn’t care less about your unsought info regarding whether you are a good example to follow or not. Indifference is hardly the same as agreement as I’m sure a check with your fave Merriam Webster would confirm.
