Many of you ask for how long this Albanian hostility will last. I would say it would have helped if Serbia apologized officially,paid reparations, helped in findind the bodies of 1700 missing and recognized Kosovo.

=======================================
So what you are saying is that it is never going to happen?
Us Serbs have never denied that crimes were committed by us. Some crimes were attributed to us but were not ours as well.
Crimes were committed by your lot against us during the war as well but unlike us you have not admitted to a single one or apologised.
Your "leaders" had a hand in those crimes and yet you elevate them all the time instead of condemn them.
Bottom line is that you won't be stopping crimes against our children even in peace time as a payback for what happened during the war and yet you expect us not to touch a hair on your head as if your lot is innocent and our people have not suffered at the hands of your people.
Well, we certainly have not taken revenge on you. Your cemetaries which are in our areas are safe, again unlike ours in your areas. Your children are not attacked, unlike our children which are routinely.
Don't you think that we want an apology for crimes committed agains us too?

How hypocritical are you?

Anything to justify the savagery.
So tell us, how long do you think taking revenge on our children should last. Are you going to keep this up for five years more, ten, how long?
When will you be satisfied and feel that you've had your revenge?

I see you are now resorting to Milosevic type of editing. Pick a quarter of a post, take it out of context and use that as a quote. Read the whole damn thing for once before you comment. Violence against children is never justifiable and what was done here is wrong. It should be stopped and never allowed to happen. Now I'd like to hear you and our Serb readers here condemn the killing of the Albanian children in their own homes. I have roamed the Internet and still haven't heard one Serb condemn such acts.

Peggy,
I am not justifying anything. I condemn it with my entirety. Politically, it serves only to the extremist on both sides. All I sad is, take a deep breath before pointing fingers and calling us barbarians. You have done much worse. Only yesterday I was reading about a Serbian human rights activist, discovering evidence that the bodies of killed Albanians had been burned up in a city inside Serbia in order to hide the evidence.
Your attempt to blame Albanians for what happened during the Kosovo war is immoral, and an assault to your intelligence. Everyone saw what happened, it's well reported and recorded in all kinds of media. Your leaders and generals were found guilty in Hague. You(Serbs) did the same in Bosnia and Croatia,and attempted it in Slovenia.

You compare a period of war and now. Isn't Kosovo suppose to be democratic and multiethnic? You make war-excuses for every crime commited by albanians in Kosovo today. Instead of condeming attacks like this you are just showing the world the kind of savages you really are.
(MikeC, 29 June 2013 13:54)

The whole point is that there is no excuse in this world whatsoever that would justify violence against children, no matter their ethnicity. Yet again you prove my point by finding an excuse. According to you it is OK to kill Albanian children because there was a war.

Disgusting behaviour from disgusting and uneducated people who can only express themselves with violence against children, there is no chance of them ever being allowed to become members of the EU or any civilised organisation on the planet.

In the end all the Albanians or anyone else who act in this way are only storing up trouble for themselves at a future time. Violence begets violence, learn from your past you fools and act like human beings instead of crazed animals. What you do to others will come back upon your own heads, you must understand this.

The present crop of Serbian politicians have no right to even utter the names of the glorious Serbs who fought then for they have no resemblence to them in dedication to Serbia or bravery.
Serbs today commemorate the bravery of those Serbs, but future generations will certainly not have anything to celebrate about today. The present crop will be remembered for all the wrong reasons.

These idiotic nationalist Serb teenagers should not be allowed to enter Kosova again. They always cause trouble and provoke the local Albanians with their Milosevic-style speeches and hooliganism.

"Shkodran" said it best: if you want to visit Kosova, keep your head down and respect the local Albanian population, otherwise you will never be welcomed.

This incident should never had happended. Lucky no one died.

If somebody is trying to turn this incident to a political cause, it's stupid.

Celebrating the stupid battle which happened more than 600 years is stupid. Serbs they weren't only one that fought. If it comes to that maybe others should join too, since it was a joint campaign.

Anyway, move on people, live the present and plan for the future.

According to you it is OK to kill Albanian children because there was a war. The Serb army gets a pass when killing children because there was a war.That is how you make your poor Serb soul be at ease. That is an appalling view for humanity and no excuse in the world can lessen the crime when children are involved. There are never, ever any excuses for perpetuating violence against children, never. Be that being killed in their own houses or stones thrown at them while on a bus. Yet your lack of understanding of what I was actually saying only perpetuates ignorance by again painting a picture of a whole ethnicity the way you feel like. The Serbs are civilized because they ONLY killed children in their own houses during a war, while Albanians are savages because they throw stones to a bus where Serb children are. Mike, that sort of thinking fails logic rules every single time, no matter how hard you try. Again, violence against children is never justified, never ever.

I don't understand why there are so many comments about this article.
Serbs load up buses with children then they provoke the locals in hopes of some sort of retaliation.

When stones come hailing down on the bus they scream bloody murder and point their finger at Albanians.

I'm sure this type of behavior is organized by some Serb peasants. Let it be known that EU does not pay attention to these things. They know Serbs' methods are outrageous and infantile.

It's pretty pathetic.

For example: It happened that Serbian flags were confiscated and Serbs were arrested for wearing T-Shirts with Cyrillic letters by KPS. But I never read that KPS ever took Albanians flags away, though flying those flags shows that these people must be enemies of the independent state of Kosovo, otherwise they would proudly fly the flag of their state, the Kosovo flag.

The violence, and especially against children is inexcusable. It should have never happened. For those Serb commentator whom try to paint all Albanians as Barbaric , take a deep breath. We have still finished counting the bodies of our family members killed by Serbian army. 1700 of them remain still to be found, maybe in mass graves or refrigerated trucks in the bottom of the Belgrade river.
(Brandon, 29 June 2013 14:43)
=====================

Really? That's your excuse? You are going to beat our women and children who had nothing to do with any of it because you are still mad about the war.
We are mad about the war and a lot of other things too. Years of abuse and digging up our dead is a huge factor in why we are still mad. Years of attacking our elderly and children because you can't keep your temper in control, especially when a lot of you Albanians DESERVED a real beating for all the terror you inflicted on our people BEFORE the war.
What do you want from us? Do you want us to pack up our women and children and get our of Kosovo permanently? Hell, there is more of you there now than before. Explain that.

After reading some comments and out of curiosity does anyone have conclusive evidence that Kosovar- Albanian cops in essence bestow favoritism or preferential treatment for Albanian civilians but when it comes to ethnic Serb civilians they're considered a low priority when it comes to police protection?

Also when I read this news article regarding some Serbs or Serb youths getting assaulted because of obscene gestures and when I mentioned a few times on b92 regarding that when I was a 7th grader formally residing in Bathurst,New Brunswick where one day aboard the school bus I observed a couple of 8th graders (13 yr olds) raising the middle finger at a cop driving on the opposite side of the road the question is if they were in Kosovo and they raised their middle finger to an Albanian cop will someone insist that these youths risk a beatdown by Albanian cops?(honestly I don't think Canadian cops can deal with youths in such a manner.)

Finally and several minutes ago I was viewing KTLA morning news (KTLA is the CW affiliate of Los Angeles/Hollywood,California,USA)where at some point there was coverage regarding special events and one of them was a basketball match between Los Angeles Police & Fire Dept) which raises the question if there was a basketball match between some members of the Kosovar Police Service (KPS) or ROSU and the Belgrade Police Force would things get ugly? would Albanian & Serbs players shove each other around or even throw fists at one another etc?

Yes, right. After some 100,000 Serbs were expelled, Albanians are now 95%. And you think because they don't want Serbs there, the few remaining ones should abandon their homes too? And everything you don't want, you are allowed to attack? Interesting opinion.

Your attempt to blame Albanians for what happened during the Kosovo war is immoral, and an assault to your intelligence. Everyone saw what happened, it's well reported and recorded in all kinds of media. Your leaders and generals were found guilty in Hague. You(Serbs) did the same in Bosnia and Croatia,and attempted it in Slovenia.

So what you are saying is that it is never going to happen?
Us Serbs have never denied that crimes were committed by us. Some crimes were attributed to us but were not ours as well.
Crimes were committed by your lot against us during the war as well but unlike us you have not admitted to a single one or apologised.
Your "leaders" had a hand in those crimes and yet you elevate them all the time instead of condemn them.
Bottom line is that you won't be stopping crimes against our children even in peace time as a payback for what happened during the war and yet you expect us not to touch a hair on your head as if your lot is innocent and our people have not suffered at the hands of your people.
Well, we certainly have not taken revenge on you. Your cemetaries which are in our areas are safe, again unlike ours in your areas. Your children are not attacked, unlike our children which are routinely.
Don't you think that we want an apology for crimes committed agains us too?

Be that being killed in their own houses or stones thrown at them while on a bus. Yet your lack of understanding of what I was actually saying only perpetuates ignorance by again painting a picture of a whole ethnicity the way you feel like. The Serbs are civilized because they ONLY killed children in their own houses during a war, while Albanians are savages because they throw stones to a bus where Serb children are.

Finally and several minutes ago I was viewing KTLA morning news (KTLA is the CW affiliate of Los Angeles/Hollywood,California,USA)where at some point there was coverage regarding special events and one of them was a basketball match between Los Angeles Police & Fire Dept) which raises the question if there was a basketball match between some members of the Kosovar Police Service (KPS) or ROSU and the Belgrade Police Force would things get ugly? would Albanian & Serbs players shove each other around or even throw fists at one another etc?

Looks like the local yokels didn't bother to heed the advice of their own government wishing for a peaceful and quiet Vidovdan without displays of hate or threats of violence. I'm sure the Albanian cyber patriots of the diaspora are going to tell us they have solid evidence that those three Serb children injured were hardened war criminals from the 1990s.

Of course looking away, or being on the other side of the road, what else do you expect from former KLA fighters turned into police officers, who share sympathy for criminals who stone buses as long as Serbs are in them?

These idiotic nationalist Serb teenagers should not be allowed to enter Kosova again. They always cause trouble and provoke the local Albanians with their Milosevic-style speeches and hooliganism.

After reading some comments and out of curiosity does anyone have conclusive evidence that Kosovar- Albanian cops in essence bestow favoritism or preferential treatment for Albanian civilians but when it comes to ethnic Serb civilians they're considered a low priority when it comes to police protection?

Also when I read this news article regarding some Serbs or Serb youths getting assaulted because of obscene gestures and when I mentioned a few times on b92 regarding that when I was a 7th grader formally residing in Bathurst,New Brunswick where one day aboard the school bus I observed a couple of 8th graders (13 yr olds) raising the middle finger at a cop driving on the opposite side of the road the question is if they were in Kosovo and they raised their middle finger to an Albanian cop will someone insist that these youths risk a beatdown by Albanian cops?(honestly I don't think Canadian cops can deal with youths in such a manner.)

Finally and several minutes ago I was viewing KTLA morning news (KTLA is the CW affiliate of Los Angeles/Hollywood,California,USA)where at some point there was coverage regarding special events and one of them was a basketball match between Los Angeles Police & Fire Dept) which raises the question if there was a basketball match between some members of the Kosovar Police Service (KPS) or ROSU and the Belgrade Police Force would things get ugly? would Albanian & Serbs players shove each other around or even throw fists at one another etc?

Peggy,
I am not justifying anything. I condemn it with my entirety. Politically, it serves only to the extremist on both sides. All I sad is, take a deep breath before pointing fingers and calling us barbarians. You have done much worse. Only yesterday I was reading about a Serbian human rights activist, discovering evidence that the bodies of killed Albanians had been burned up in a city inside Serbia in order to hide the evidence.
Your attempt to blame Albanians for what happened during the Kosovo war is immoral, and an assault to your intelligence. Everyone saw what happened, it's well reported and recorded in all kinds of media. Your leaders and generals were found guilty in Hague. You(Serbs) did the same in Bosnia and Croatia,and attempted it in Slovenia.
Many of you ask for how long this Albanian hostility will last. I would say it would have helped if Serbia apologized officially,paid reparations, helped in findind the bodies of 1700 missing and recognized Kosovo.

I don't understand why there are so many comments about this article.
Serbs load up buses with children then they provoke the locals in hopes of some sort of retaliation.

When stones come hailing down on the bus they scream bloody murder and point their finger at Albanians.

I'm sure this type of behavior is organized by some Serb peasants. Let it be known that EU does not pay attention to these things. They know Serbs' methods are outrageous and infantile.

It's pretty pathetic.

This incident should never had happended. Lucky no one died.

If somebody is trying to turn this incident to a political cause, it's stupid.

Celebrating the stupid battle which happened more than 600 years is stupid. Serbs they weren't only one that fought. If it comes to that maybe others should join too, since it was a joint campaign.

Anyway, move on people, live the present and plan for the future.

Yes, right. After some 100,000 Serbs were expelled, Albanians are now 95%. And you think because they don't want Serbs there, the few remaining ones should abandon their homes too? And everything you don't want, you are allowed to attack? Interesting opinion.

The present crop of Serbian politicians have no right to even utter the names of the glorious Serbs who fought then for they have no resemblence to them in dedication to Serbia or bravery.

Disgusting behaviour from disgusting and uneducated people who can only express themselves with violence against children, there is no chance of them ever being allowed to become members of the EU or any civilised organisation on the planet.

In the end all the Albanians or anyone else who act in this way are only storing up trouble for themselves at a future time. Violence begets violence, learn from your past you fools and act like human beings instead of crazed animals. What you do to others will come back upon your own heads, you must understand this.

The violence, and especially against children is inexcusable. It should have never happened. For those Serb commentator whom try to paint all Albanians as Barbaric , take a deep breath.

Years of attacking our elderly and children because you can't keep your temper in control, especially when a lot of you Albanians DESERVED a real beating for all the terror you inflicted on our people BEFORE the war.

For example: It happened that Serbian flags were confiscated and Serbs were arrested for wearing T-Shirts with Cyrillic letters by KPS. But I never read that KPS ever took Albanians flags away, though flying those flags shows that these people must be enemies of the independent state of Kosovo, otherwise they would proudly fly the flag of their state, the Kosovo flag.

Be that being killed in their own houses or stones thrown at them while on a bus. Yet your lack of understanding of what I was actually saying only perpetuates ignorance by again painting a picture of a whole ethnicity the way you feel like. The Serbs are civilized because they ONLY killed children in their own houses during a war, while Albanians are savages because they throw stones to a bus where Serb children are.

=======================================
So what you are saying is that it is never going to happen?
Us Serbs have never denied that crimes were committed by us. Some crimes were attributed to us but were not ours as well.
Crimes were committed by your lot against us during the war as well but unlike us you have not admitted to a single one or apologised.
Your "leaders" had a hand in those crimes and yet you elevate them all the time instead of condemn them.
Bottom line is that you won't be stopping crimes against our children even in peace time as a payback for what happened during the war and yet you expect us not to touch a hair on your head as if your lot is innocent and our people have not suffered at the hands of your people.
Well, we certainly have not taken revenge on you. Your cemetaries which are in our areas are safe, again unlike ours in your areas. Your children are not attacked, unlike our children which are routinely.
Don't you think that we want an apology for crimes committed agains us too?
