Ratko Mladic is my problem since people think he's in Serbia. But if you insist again, yes double standards, yes Serbia (Serbs) have been punished more than they deserve but hell are you telling me they dont deserve some punishment? Is that what you are saying?<BR/><BR/>gujgli you have a generalised view of B92 that comes through lack of knowledge. <BR/><BR/>B92 could have easily cut off the Miloseivc trial. RTS did didnt it?<BR/><BR/>The experts on B92 that came like Tapuskovic, Toma Fila, lots of them with a variety of opinions. Thats good.<BR/><BR/>Again I point you in the direction of the Helsinki site in Serbia if you want to read about the confrontation between the NGO's in Serbia and the media. It is interesting.<BR/><BR/>Then there are NGO's such as VERITAS.<BR/><BR/>I can see that you prefer a black and white viewpoint (it easier on a person) but the problem is that the world isnt black and white.<BR/><BR/>I have been to Banja Luka and I've also been to Sarajevo. Perhaps it is you that should visit Sarajevo and Belgrade and tell Serbian refugees in Belgrade or the Serbs of Sarajevo that you think that republika sprksa was a price worth paying. <BR/><BR/>I prefer multiculturalism to monoculturalism in Kosovo and in Bosnia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146761715080853952006-05-04T12:55:00.000-04:002006-05-04T12:55:00.000-04:00ahmet actually I have cable so I dont need to rely...ahmet actually I have cable so I dont need to rely on RTS and as you can see I speak very good English so its likely I have access to more information than you think.<BR/><BR/>You also dont even know what line of work Im in. And you assume that I havent been in Kosovo. I wonder why, could that be because you dont think I would have freedom of movement in Kosovo. You would be right. I am limited to visiting Mitrovica and Pristina. <BR/><BR/>My German collegue isnt though and he's been throughout Kosovo and has given me on the ground reports on whats happening in the Serbian and Roma ghettos. Its a miserable situation. I know its not that much better in poorer Albanian communities either.<BR/><BR/>If you truly do know about the electricity situation in Kosovo then you would know that in fact most of Kosovo's citizens still dont pay electricity bills. I dont like to politicize this issue but it seems very stupid indeed to do something that will be interpreted as ethnic. And KEK and the internationals knew that damn well.<BR/><BR/>Cut a few people off as example to get others to pay (including Albanians) but entire Serbian communities. What kind of stupidity is that?<BR/><BR/>Yes, B92 is a pretty good media station. Unfortunately it is going in the wrong direction - commercialisation, American trash soaps etc. It used to have excellent documentaries, exploring the past, investigative journalism.<BR/>I welcome the fact that some Albanians recognise B92 as a good example. I hope there is something similar for Kosovo Albanians.<BR/><BR/>But gujgli is right on the ownership issue. 48 percent (minority share) is owned by the media development fund. The rest is onwed on the sort of socialist principle of the old days - those who work there longest have shares. Veran M, Sasa M, etc etc.<BR/><BR/>Fox recently expressed an interest in buying the station. I hope they dont or they will kill it.<BR/><BR/>gujgli the funds from the US and other NGO's have now dried up. This is the main reason for the increasing commercialisation of B92. Trust me I know whats going on there.<BR/><BR/>Also you need to make a distinction between B92 and the NGO view. Back in 2002 there was a big bust up between B92, Vreme and other media on one side and the NGO's on the other. The NGO's were unhappy that B92 was not radical enough. You can read about this on the Helsink site which has it all translated into English. I think its in the Facing the past section.<BR/>It makes interesting reading I promise you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146760222236387722006-05-04T12:30:00.000-04:002006-05-04T12:30:00.000-04:00gujguiI'm aware what double standards are. Im tell...gujgui<BR/><BR/>I'm aware what double standards are. Im telling you I dont practice them, so blame for double standards can not be laid in my direction.<BR/><BR/>But as you suspect I agree - and in fact now that people know my position on double standards they can suspect or almost know my position(s) in advance. They are based on a common principle applying to all sides. As I was saying I agree all war criminals should be brought to book and this has not been done.<BR/><BR/>But I will also say this. Due to the fact that Serbs were the most numerous population living in the former Yugoslavia it also stands to reason that they will also have the most war criminals (and also the most moderates). Therefore some Serbs and Mg's who are aruging that should be an equal amount of Serbs, Croats and Bosnians, Albanians at the Hague are not being logical. But yes sadly there are a number of Kosovo Albanian warlords who should be brought to the Hague. I wont say here that they are guilty before they are judged but they should face trial.<BR/><BR/>Mind you I will now completely contradict myself with this. There are a disproportionate amount of Montenegrians at the Hague. Seriously there are so many of them are Montenegrian its unbelievable and most of them hid in Serbia.<BR/><BR/>500,000 people most certainly did not attend the Milosevic funeral. Unlike most who speculate on the figures I was there and there was between 80,000 to 120,000. But if you added the people who visited Pozarevac too it could move up to 250,000. But heres something that might confuse those that dont know the culture. Would you care to guess how many of those who attended the Milosevic funeral also attended Tito's funeral in 1980? Oh yeah many of the same schizophrenic people. Imagine, Tito a Yugoslav, brotherhood, unity etc and then Milosevic who came to the helm of a grand proud country and left the country in a pathetic and pitiful state with reduced borders and enemies greedily eyeing the scraps.<BR/><BR/>And I tell you something else, I bet that many of those who attended Rugova's funeral also attended Tito's. Same s//t different package but I know the culture and people here. Even when they behave in a contradictory way.<BR/><BR/>I dont agree that its absurd to talk about the rights of Serbs living in the Federation. Unless you are living in such a situation you dont have the right to call that absurd. <BR/><BR/>But I do appreciate you correcting your figure for killed Serbs in Bosnia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146687114416740972006-05-03T16:11:00.000-04:002006-05-03T16:11:00.000-04:00bg anon don't bother how much peoples in Kosova us...bg anon don't bother how much peoples in Kosova use internet <BR/><BR/>check only you national television does the RTS transmits any footage of common peoples about their problems and what do they think about Kosova.<BR/><BR/>RTK does goes to the Serbian villages and asks local residents to speak freely about in what conditions are they living.<BR/><BR/>If you were not never in Kosova after the war it is not my fault that you don't have clear picture of Kosova since the RTS doesn't allows clear infos from Kosova. One example is about electricity that the serbian governement is telling allways that only the serbian minority on Kosova are facing power cuts. Well if they payed in time their debts to KEK then they wouldn't be matter of consideration to face power cuts.<BR/><BR/>What's more important is that www.b92.net is most respectful TV station in Serbia because even that is located and owned by Serbians that do represent different points of views not only the government one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146670806502560182006-05-03T11:40:00.000-04:002006-05-03T11:40:00.000-04:00Kristian you are arguing that point you said 'no o...Kristian you are arguing that point you said 'no one can say with 100 percent certainty who owned the lands'.<BR/><BR/>In other words you are accepting the premise that somebody does own the land. Otherwise your response would be for example that land cannot be owned so the point on who claims what is irrelevant.<BR/><BR/>Thus I dont agree that the Turks owned the land either. At one time they controlled it militarily. But like I say land cant really ever be owned.<BR/><BR/>Historians generalise, exaggerate, work for governments / interest groups, lie, are economical with the truth. I agree. My best friend is a historian and he would tell you this himself.<BR/><BR/>Kristian do you have an explanation as to why so many pepole who live in the west - particularly the US but also in Europe has such a jaudiced and one sided, bitter view of events in the Balkans. <BR/><BR/>Look at it this way. 25 percent of people living in Serbia have regular access to the internet. In Kosovo its half that.<BR/><BR/>I cant sense any participants who live in Serbia / MG and I think the same is true for Albanians.<BR/><BR/>Why is it then that it takes somebody like me who actually chooses to live in the region to try to talk sense into those who are living thousands of miles away?<BR/><BR/>And who are all these people who are deliberately trying to poison relations between Serbs and Albanians to an even worse degree than they already are?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146654681567020242006-05-03T07:11:00.000-04:002006-05-03T07:11:00.000-04:00To the anonymous guy who thinks seeking compromise...To the anonymous guy who thinks seeking compromise is Communist philosophy.<BR/><BR/>You obviously havent heard of Goli Otok have you?<BR/><BR/>Is there anybody with a more intelligent comment to make?<BR/><BR/>Guess its not easy to debate with somebody who is actually taking the debate further than name calling is it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146634155286252702006-05-03T01:29:00.000-04:002006-05-03T01:29:00.000-04:00bg anon is a damn communist on top of being a Serb...bg anon is a damn communist on top of being a Serb, dude your life must really suck.<BR/><BR/>to the person suggesting that Serb should kill themselves, that is a terrible idea. . .

At least thats what I think you mean by being too late.<BR/><BR/>Thats not my intention. Im just here to remind people of the facts of our (yes) JOINT history which was not all bad. Life in Kosovo existed before 1989, before Milosevic and it may not have been perfect but it was not some one sided story that we are being served by some people with an agenda to make Serbs look like genocidal maniacs.<BR/><BR/>I dont think its too late to remind people of that period, no. That period was (imperfect, yes) but multiethnic. And people were generally not allowed to go round killing one another on an ethnic basis. That period of peace was much longer than the period of 1989 to the present day.<BR/><BR/>And please why do you put words into my mouth. Where did I ever say that the whole world was threatened by Albanian muslums?<BR/>I dont understand why you accuse somebody innocent of saying things he has not. And it worries me like hell because if I was a Serb living in Kosovo today, no doubt you would think the same thing about me - which is the sort of attitude which would pressure me to leave my home. There is a name for that which we both know.<BR/><BR/>I cant speak for Serbia but we can see positive signs. For example those poor relatives of those killed (who are used here by some at this blog like goals in a football or soccer match much to my disgust) finally have some peace.<BR/><BR/>The disgraceful espisode of reburied Kosovo Albanian bodies in Serbia - the bodies have been / are being returned. Better still finally those responsible are being punished. You think I want scum like those who murdered those civilians walking the same streets as me and my family? No, I want them in jail. This is a feeling we must share.<BR/><BR/>I also know that it isnt easy in Kosovo Albanian communities where similar people are walking the streets and ordinary Albanians are afraid of them. That is our joint interest. Those people endanger all of us - particularly in peacetime. They dont stop killing in peace. Those supposed 'war heros' continue killing until the forces of law / rule of democracy can arrest and imprison them. Sadly, if they metamorphasise into politicians, some think they will never have to answer for their crimes.<BR/><BR/>Look at what happened in Serbia to Zoran Djindjic. Look at the people who killed the elected Prime Minister of Serbia. Is it any surprise that these were many of the same people who fought in the wars against Croats, Albanians and so on? Dont think that cant happen in Kosovo as well. I havent seen one yet but sometime soon a visionary Kosovo Albanian politician will appear and dont be surprised if some Kosovo Albanian warlord will want to kill him. It could be one of the very same warlords that Kosovo Albanians currently see as a hero.<BR/><BR/>I want the culture of war in Kosovo to end. Again normal people will agree on this. But I have to say Im not optimistic. I say its not independence, flags or anthems that will change things. Frankly I wonder at the lack of success of the internationals in Kosovo so far. And I also wonder how much worse the anti Serb violence would have been if they had not been there 2 years ago. That last point cant makes the Kosovo Albanian argument that 'as soon as independence is granted then things will be fine' look optimistic at best. At worst the view looks hopelessly misguided.<BR/><BR/>Yes I know Albanians wont accept a return to 1974 or even Republic status but there has to be a way to guarantee the safety of the people of Kosovo. No, I dont have a good solution to propose. :(<BR/><BR/>Kristian as you can see I very much believe in working together. Although lets not abandon reality for a fantasy world. Its easy for me to sit here in my Belgrade flat advocating peace. My family hasnt been killed or been ethnically cleansed.<BR/><BR/>Kristian IMO opinion you are wasting time on arguing ownership of Kosovo. By doing so you are accepting the premise that land does belong to one ethnic group or another. Land existed long before nation states did which as Im sure you know are a relatively recent invention. Land doesnt really belong to anybody and actually I think we all know that. We all die sooner or later and land remains.<BR/><BR/>One must appreciate Serbian and Albanian history in Kosovo but 'this land is ours, not yours' game is pure childishness and almost always accompanied by some ancient historical ethnic roots theory by some quasi expert who wants to prove that his 'tribe' was there first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146595979656314302006-05-02T14:52:00.000-04:002006-05-02T14:52:00.000-04:00"That is just stupid.

The whole substance of what you wrote about FARDUK or some other economic discussion is too late. Since we have gone through some conflict which was anything but civilized on the serb part. Yes, I did omitt the albanian part even though you claim we in some way threatened the whole world based on the fact that majority of albanians are muslim. And serbia was somehow trying to defend the world from us. I have heard every excuse in the book why serbs committed the crimes they did in Kosova. But they are just that, excuses. If we are going to talk about the future then let's. But any notion that somehow Kosova will return under serbia's rule is absurd an unfathomable for us albanians. I understand that we need to move from the culture of war which will probably happen as soon as Kosova is a sovereign state. However, serbs must accept responsibilty about what happened in Kosova. As far as economy it will progress between serbia and kosova no matter what anyone says. The deman for goods transcends politics in every culture. And people here who emphasise only the negative will find themselves in minority in no time. If we are going to discuss the future we can discuss them only on equal terms. Let the past stay the past. For us albanians past brings pain and soon pain must go away.But forget we never will.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146583927601313662006-05-02T11:32:00.000-04:002006-05-02T11:32:00.000-04:00Anon the discussion I am trying to engage is never...Anon the discussion I am trying to engage is never too late.<BR/><BR/>I think you sense my intentions - ie that it is possible for the people of Kosovo (Serbs, Albanians, Roma and others) to find common issues that they can agree upon.<BR/><BR/>Instead, sadly as we see here, people are actively trying to find issues that divide them.

My standard is to be against war crimes and war criminals.<BR/><BR/>The double standard is that war crimes committed by one side are somehow acceptible and the other unacceptible.<BR/><BR/>Yes, its another argument that you mentioned. People like my live in Serbia and we should not be held to ransom by individuals - regardless of how strongly supportive some feel of them. In Serbia it is a minority who feels supportive of Mladic these days. You will see if / when Mladic is arrested / found / killed that there are few protests.<BR/><BR/>Again you are arguing with the wrong person about morality. Your argument is with those who conduct war by killing civilians (yes NATO as well). I am against killing civilians - therefore you can assume immediately that I am against NATO targetting passenger trains, markets, civilian convoys, civilian television stations, and any other attrocity that you remember.<BR/><BR/>Again I agree if international justice is applied it must be applied to every person in every nation. There are no free passes if you are American or a 'friend of America'.<BR/><BR/>I dont know where you got that 100,000 Serbs dead in Bosnia statistic from. Its the first time I've heard it. Unless you are combining the total of all of those Serbs who died in the former Yugoslav war. It would be a stretch to say they all died for Republika Sprska - a very big stretch.<BR/><BR/>I dont think you heard my point. My point is that there are many Serbs who lived outside todays border of Republica Srpksa in the Bosnian federation. They are paying the price and have the status of second class citizens. The rest are living as refugees. That is some of the of the price paid for Republika Srpska.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146571068541548302006-05-02T07:57:00.000-04:002006-05-02T07:57:00.000-04:00Independence for Kosova look harder for FARDUK.

The internet age dawned in this part of the world after FARDUK ceased to existed so there isnt much on the net.<BR/><BR/>But if you go to Pristina library or if you are not in Kosovo, go to a large library in the US and look for official documents. You will find them.<BR/><BR/>And why do you make things up about how you think I believe. I KNOW that life is hard in Kosovo for people of all ethnic groups. But I also know that it is harder for non Albanians (as I think you also know even if dont want to admit it).<BR/><BR/>I honestly didnt realise that there are taxes in Kosovo. I was under the impression that VAT still hasnt been imposed.<BR/><BR/>I find name calling childish and a waste of time that should be spent arguing serious points. Anybody can trade insults but only smart people can argue issues.<BR/><BR/>And truly your obsession with Serbia next to my tone and arguments, Independence for Kosova, is beginning to sound like an inferiority complex.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146567939428630222006-05-02T07:05:00.000-04:002006-05-02T07:05:00.000-04:00NYoutlawyer about communistic albania, they were r...NYoutlawyer about communistic albania, they were ready for any aggression from ex-Yu or greece.<BR/><BR/>NYoutlawyer sto se tice komunisticke albanije ona je bila spremna za spaki napad koji bi mogao doci od strane ex-Yu ili grcke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8736921.post-1146529508694432022006-05-01T20:25:00.000-04:002006-05-01T20:25:00.000-04:00gugjgi, you are truly a sad individual.

The fact that you consider him a hero is very very sad. Mladic's action, and yet you consider him a hero. You know Serb there are something called WAR RULES, but I'm sure serbia or its people haven't heard about.<BR/><BR/>Serbia is a shame to all!<BR/><BR/>Bytheway it's this kind of mentality that terrorists and mass murders use. But still I'm not surprised.<BR/><BR/>Remember Shqiptar, Serbia is the most democratic country in Europe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
