Serbian homes are being destroyed too and Serbs harrassed. You have it all backwards.
(Peggy, 23 October 2015 01:02)

Since according to the most patriotic of Serbs, Kosovo is not independent and Kosovo is Serbia, you should address your concern above to Serbia's government. I'm sure Serbia's government will immediately address your concerns about what's happening in Serbia's southern province of Kosovo!

Remind the world that Serbia joined UNESCO immediately after the largest ethnic cleansing campaign in Europe since WW2 and the destruction of hundreds of religious structures throughout Yugoslavia.
(Time to remind, 22 October 2015 14:34)
------------------------------------
Really? What you fail to realize is that it was Serbian churches and monasteries that were destroyed by your rabid mob back in 2004 and the destruction is still ongoing. How many cemeteries have your brothers and sisters destroyed in Kosovo in recent times alone?
Serbian homes are being destroyed too and Serbs harrassed. You have it all backwards. We build, you destroy.

Zoran, Comm, Peggy,
Comparison of Albanians to ISIS is a way to cloud the issue as it is the fear symbol in the world today but extremely off mark.
The closest comparison to ISIS in terms of brutality destruction of religious sites and violence is actually the role that OSOS played in the 90s. OSOS- Orthodox State of Serbia. Maybe it is the western countries time to remind the world of the savagery that was rampant by Milosevic who is still obviously followed closely today. Remind the world that Serbia joined UNESCO immediately after the largest ethnic cleansing campaign in Europe since WW2 and the destruction of hundreds of religious structures throughout Yugoslavia.

For once, i agree with icj1.

So now, Hold their feet to the fire and demand prompt UNESCO services.

The Serb Monasteries have survived thousands of years under onslaught, they'll survive some more years too.

K will need to silence those crazies on its side who say these are Albanian Catholic monasteries.

The only thing we know about Albanian medievil history is nothing. Everything one reads here or is some doctoral dissertation is speculation.... and unlikely. These are clearly structures begun by Dushan and those who followed him. Serbs are now qnd always have been church building people.

History and Serbs, mean late 6th century, or I would safely say, late 7th, because, probably it took you a hundred years to evolve from your cold Russian climate, and History and Albanians means since we know History exists. Have that in mind.

====================================
Even if it was true that Albanians were in Kosovo before Serbs it wouldn't matter at all anyway. Try telling the Yanks to get out of the US because Indians were there first or Aussies to get out of Australia because the Aborigines were there first and Serbs were in Kosovo longer than those two combined.
Funny things is that you Albanians keep repeating the same old rubbish. When asked to present proof of you being there before Serbs you never can. So how are you going to convince anyone that Serbs need to leave Kosovo and hand it over to Albanians because of history that only Albanians seem to know. Also if that was a criteria for abandoning Kosovo you would've used that lie well before you ahd to resort to terrorism to provoke a fight with Serbs. Either way you don't have a leg to stand on in that regard, so why keep repeating it?

So you witnessed this yourself? Di you by chance on your first visit happen to notice any of the mosques that were destroyed by Serbia, I think the official number is somewhere over 300 or did you by chance catch a glimpse of any of the mass graves that Serbs dumped Albanian bodies into, Serbs worry about abandoned grave yards being vandalized, Albanians worry about whether their families remains will ever be returned so they can have a proper burial.
And yet after all this destruction, Serbia was admitted to UNESCO not before.

That's because ISIS isn't trying to join UNESCO and doesn't give a damn if people know what they destroy. Albanians on the other hand want to take Serbian heritage and turn it into their own, well what's left of it.

All that 'Albanian history' in Kosovo for so many so called centuries, yet no evidence left behind. Albanians lay claim to originating from Kosovo, yet the structure and history of Kosovo don't show anything Albanian from one, two, or three thousand years ago. There is a ton of Serbian history over the past millenia, and it's funny how Albanians lay claim to Kosovo yet the cities are Serbian named. But hey, why look at actual evidence when some whacked out Albanians wrote a book that says Albanians were around before the earth was even created it seems like! Albanians planted the trees on earth, created the sun, and the 24 hour day as well. It's in a book written by an Albanian, so it must be so. Why look at the evidence and the facts in Kosovo when some book written by an Albanian in recent history says otherwise. For such an ancient, original people, it's funny how the Albanian language never existed a thousand years ago, Albanian people never existed, no Albanian empire or region, no Albanian anything. Just like with UNESCO Albanians are trying to claim someone else's history, and the new books will lie that it is....just like they lie and claim they are Illyrians. Both are wrong.

"The Executive Council of UNESCO may decide however it wants, but history cannot be erased because that has always been and always will be Serb cultural and religious heritage in Kosovo. Whatever someone calls it and whatever decision is made," said Dacic.

EUREKA!!! Finally, even Ivica got it! Yes, Kosovo's UNESCO membership has nothing to do with erasing, creating or changing the Albanian, Ashkali, Byzantine, Ilyrian, Ottoman, Roma, Roman, or Serb or X's cultural or religious heritage in Kosovo. If anything, it will create an obligation for Kosovo to better protect any Albanian, Ashkali, Byzantine, Ilyrian, Ottoman, Roma, Roman, or Serb or X's cultural or religious heritage in Kosovo.
----------

if the Executive Council adopts the recommendation (to allow Pristina to join), it will be an unprecedented decision, because there is no international legal basis for it as the UN has not recommended the adoption of such a decision."

The legal basis is Article II Paragraph 2 of UNESCO's Basic Texts that Serbia has ratified and agreed to which says, I quote, "states not members of the United Nations Organization may be admitted to membership of the Organization, upon recommendation of the Executive Board, by a two-thirds majority vote of the General Conference". So UN recommendation or lack of it is totally irrelevant.

Doesn't Ivica have any (even mediocre) legal advisors who just need the qualifications to be able to read a document?!!!

Yes, Kosovo's UNESCO membership has nothing to do with erasing, creating or changing the Albanian, Ashkali, Byzantine, Ilyrian, Ottoman, Roma, Roman, or Serb or X's cultural or religious heritage in Kosovo. If anything, it will create an obligation for Kosovo to better protect any Albanian, Ashkali, Byzantine, Ilyrian, Ottoman, Roma, Roman, or Serb or X's cultural or religious heritage in Kosovo.
----------

if the Executive Council adopts the recommendation (to allow Pristina to join), it will be an unprecedented decision, because there is no international legal basis for it as the UN has not recommended the adoption of such a decision."

The legal basis is Article II Paragraph 2 of UNESCO's Basic Texts that Serbia has ratified and agreed to which says, I quote, "states not members of the United Nations Organization may be admitted to membership of the Organization, upon recommendation of the Executive Board, by a two-thirds majority vote of the General Conference". So UN recommendation or lack of it is totally irrelevant.

Doesn't Ivica have any (even mediocre) legal advisors who just need the qualifications to be able to read a document?!!!

History and Serbs, mean late 6th century, or I would safely say, late 7th, because, probably it took you a hundred years to evolve from your cold Russian climate, and History and Albanians means since we know History exists. Have that in mind.

All that 'Albanian history' in Kosovo for so many so called centuries, yet no evidence left behind. Albanians lay claim to originating from Kosovo, yet the structure and history of Kosovo don't show anything Albanian from one, two, or three thousand years ago. There is a ton of Serbian history over the past millenia, and it's funny how Albanians lay claim to Kosovo yet the cities are Serbian named. But hey, why look at actual evidence when some whacked out Albanians wrote a book that says Albanians were around before the earth was even created it seems like! Albanians planted the trees on earth, created the sun, and the 24 hour day as well. It's in a book written by an Albanian, so it must be so. Why look at the evidence and the facts in Kosovo when some book written by an Albanian in recent history says otherwise. For such an ancient, original people, it's funny how the Albanian language never existed a thousand years ago, Albanian people never existed, no Albanian empire or region, no Albanian anything. Just like with UNESCO Albanians are trying to claim someone else's history, and the new books will lie that it is....just like they lie and claim they are Illyrians. Both are wrong.

They've been stealing other people's history and calling it their own for over a century.

====================================
Even if it was true that Albanians were in Kosovo before Serbs it wouldn't matter at all anyway. Try telling the Yanks to get out of the US because Indians were there first or Aussies to get out of Australia because the Aborigines were there first and Serbs were in Kosovo longer than those two combined.
Funny things is that you Albanians keep repeating the same old rubbish. When asked to present proof of you being there before Serbs you never can. So how are you going to convince anyone that Serbs need to leave Kosovo and hand it over to Albanians because of history that only Albanians seem to know. Also if that was a criteria for abandoning Kosovo you would've used that lie well before you ahd to resort to terrorism to provoke a fight with Serbs. Either way you don't have a leg to stand on in that regard, so why keep repeating it?

who can? but what the board can do, is admit Kosovo to UNESCO, which going by the reaction of some here, is enough to make a lot of Serbs go bananas

Defining what you mean by history would be the best thing here. When it comes to Kosovo, in that area, Albanians lived there before every Greek god.

So you witnessed this yourself? Di you by chance on your first visit happen to notice any of the mosques that were destroyed by Serbia, I think the official number is somewhere over 300 or did you by chance catch a glimpse of any of the mass graves that Serbs dumped Albanian bodies into, Serbs worry about abandoned grave yards being vandalized, Albanians worry about whether their families remains will ever be returned so they can have a proper burial.
And yet after all this destruction, Serbia was admitted to UNESCO not before.

For once, i agree with icj1.

So now, Hold their feet to the fire and demand prompt UNESCO services.

The Serb Monasteries have survived thousands of years under onslaught, they'll survive some more years too.

K will need to silence those crazies on its side who say these are Albanian Catholic monasteries.

The only thing we know about Albanian medievil history is nothing. Everything one reads here or is some doctoral dissertation is speculation.... and unlikely. These are clearly structures begun by Dushan and those who followed him. Serbs are now qnd always have been church building people.

"On the other hand, it would be the first time to reach a decision on admission to membership of someone who has not passed the qualification in the preservation of cultural heritage, quite the contrary," Dacic has been quoted as saying....
You don't have any right talking about heritage its a shame a person who supposed to be smart for his function in government and he is forgetting what his comrade's did in war in Kosovo a specially in town in Gjakova(Djakovica) the whole heritage plaza was burn and not mention hundred other heritage site's around Kosovo and no one until today are find responsible for those crimes and regarding the 2002 to 2004 Albanian's being involved on damaging Serbian site where arrested and convicted please read testimonies from UNESCO when they where send to UN so lying and talking non sense its CHEAP..and in the end what happen yesterday its gone no one can bring yesterday only think you can make it better if you want its today and much better tomorrow people need to learn to respect each other no mater who you are Albanian ,Serbian,Bosnian,Croation etc we are human's AND WE ARE NOT GOING NO WHERE and we all deserve to live in peace and prosperity...CHEERS

Zoran, Comm, Peggy,
Comparison of Albanians to ISIS is a way to cloud the issue as it is the fear symbol in the world today but extremely off mark.
The closest comparison to ISIS in terms of brutality destruction of religious sites and violence is actually the role that OSOS played in the 90s. OSOS- Orthodox State of Serbia. Maybe it is the western countries time to remind the world of the savagery that was rampant by Milosevic who is still obviously followed closely today. Remind the world that Serbia joined UNESCO immediately after the largest ethnic cleansing campaign in Europe since WW2 and the destruction of hundreds of religious structures throughout Yugoslavia.

Really? What you fail to realize is that it was Serbian churches and monasteries that were destroyed by your rabid mob back in 2004 and the destruction is still ongoing. How many cemeteries have your brothers and sisters destroyed in Kosovo in recent times alone?
Serbian homes are being destroyed too and Serbs harrassed. You have it all backwards. We build, you destroy.

-- Hush. Also, Serbia bombed Croatian churches. You should the last ones to talk. I'd suggest an initiative from Croatia and Albania for the expulsion of Serbia from UNESCO since it has bombed churches and mosques. Add to the list maternity hospitals too.

Since according to the most patriotic of Serbs, Kosovo is not independent and Kosovo is Serbia, you should address your concern above to Serbia's government. I'm sure Serbia's government will immediately address your concerns about what's happening in Serbia's southern province of Kosovo!
