>>>You say you will fight for freedom of people. Why don't you fight form my freedom??!!! I can't speak my own language, I don't have a freedom of movement, I survived a grenade attack, I DON'T HAVE A RIGHT TO LIVE!!!

Nennsy, I cannot and do not dismiss the plight of Serbs in Kosova at the moment. Neither do I want to be an appologist for those responsible. Let's face it, there was a war and there were terrible deeds committed, and the hate runs deep. I wish there were a way to change that quickly and easily, but there isn't.
And I am afraid that the solution that might be best from your perspective, is almost certainly the worst solution for the other 2 million people in Kosova. So there is no choice but to look to the long term, and in the long term I am of the conviction that Kosovar independence is best for Albanians and Serbs in Kosova, and for the whole of the Balkans.

>>>we will not give up on Kosovo.

You seem to be of the same opinion expressed by other Serb posters here, that a military solution is desirable. I am sorry, but to me that is pure nationalistic folly.

Operation Storm and the ethnic cleansing of the Serbs from Krajina has created peace in Croatia. The liberation of Srebrenica created peace in Bosnia. There won't be any peace in Kosovo until one of the ethnic groups is fully eradicated from the land. I'd bet the Serbs are going to lose round 1 and I'd bet that the Albanians' grandchildren lose round 2, badly. Kosovo is a completely different ballgame.

The constant attacks on the Serbian people of Kosovo by Albanians over the past 100 years has only strengthened the myths of Kosovo in the hearts of the Serbs. The Albanians in Kosovo can ignore this at their own perile. They're not thinking past their own noses. That is often a fatal mistake. You can't wish away June 28th. It's going to be there every year.
