Albanian leaders always surprise me how conciliatory they can be in trying to represent all their citizens, despite what Albanians went through at the hand of the Serb church. I hope their Serb counterparts will wish the same to the Muslim faithful in Kosovo.
AND ALSO
Happy Eid-ul-Athur
ME FAT KURBAN BAJRAMI
Paqja qoft mbi ju

My 2006 wish: Independent Kosova
How many of the Serbs wish the same?
Merry xmas to them as well. May we live in peacefull independent Kosova
Merry Christmas to all of our orthodox followers and a happy, prosperous 2006 to all.
Now, you cant expect us Serbs to wish for an independent Kosovo, just like we cant expect you to wish for a Kosovo in Serbia, but we should all wish for PEACE and RECONCILIATION, because this is what will truly bring progress to the balkans.
I wish a happy 2006 to everyone.
May happiness come to all of your homes, Serbs, Albanians, ALL!!!

Juste pour embêter tout le monde je vais en poster un en français. Je sais que les albanais et les serbes sont de grans albanophiles... Bonne et heureuse année 2006 à tous les peuples du Kosovo (ose të Kosovës si të doni) et espérons que cette année soit sanctionnée par le statut définitif et équitable de ce territoire qui a déjà beaucoup trop souffert.
