Julia Gorin explains in FrontPage explains how "Albanian love" for America "is conditional. And it’s waning fast."
Albanians are the most pro-American people in the world! everyone proclaims as Albanians burn churches, kill nuns and behead monks in Kosovo, the “most pro-American state-in-progress.” Ah yes, this is who loves America. A dubious endorsement indeed. Everywhere else, we are hated for trying to beat back jihad. In Kosovo, Albania and the Albanian Diaspora, they love us for enabling it. Any time you help Muslims kill Christians, just like any time you help one nationality clean out its ethnic rival, it’ll thank you. For a little while.Don’t be fooled. Albanian love is conditional. And it’s waning fast.
[...]
During a February mission to Brussels, after getting the usual empty assurances of protections for Kosovo’s non-Albanian minority, American Council for Kosovo Director Jim Jatras asked a Hungarian member of the European Parliament, “Isn’t all this talk of protections for Serbs a tacit admission that among the Kosovo Albanians are a lot of violent and intolerant people? Why would you reward their violence with state power?”
Looking Jatras in the eye, the parliamentarian replied, “Because we’re afraid of them.”
Afraid…of pro-American people?
[...]
Among Albanians, Bosnians, Croats and Serbs — even with all the documented and imagined crimes attributed to the Serbs — the Serbs were the Balkans’ most civilized element. Add up Serb crimes, multiply them by 10, and they’re still not as scary as the people they were fighting. (Or do we need to get into the skull-crushing, eye-gouging, bloody-knife-licking, using the “Serb-cutter”, raping-and-burning, neck-sawing, beheading and disemboweling that Bosnians, Croats and Albanians engaged in?) So now ask why Serbs were so hated by those they were fighting. And ask why KLA targeted Americans and Serbs together.
Before you accept Albanian pro-Americanism, you must first ask what made Albanians anti-Serb. Then you must look at photos of what the KLA did to its enemies, so that when you’re exchanging niceties and recipes with your Albanian neighbors, keep in mind that, by and large, the KLA terrorists remain their national heroes.
Read it all.

Wow, I've never had the second comment ever! And not had anything to say! :-)
But, I've been wondering if Morgaan Sinclair has been banned? I haven't seen anything from her in awhile, and this post is right up her alley...
LOL
What crap this is (No, Robert, not on your part, nor Julia's. Though I take WPs articles cautiously because of their inherently leftist bent, this one is pretty accurate).
This reminds me of the scene from the movie
"Hunt For Red October", scene was Captain Ramius discussing with the commissar.
Commissar says to Captain Ramius of another Captain, Tupolev:
"It is rumored that he has a special place in his heart for you."
Ramius parks him:
"There's little room in Tupolev's heart for anyone but Tupolev."
Albanians wouldn't give a hoot in hell about any infidel...they're only thankful for us for giving them a reprieve from the Serbs, who would have dealt with them in short order, and for reasons that continue to become clearer and clearer.
(While the Serbs proved to be no saints by any means in the conflict, more and more of the American military consider the balkan decision to be a great mistake, and of no importance to us-which is true...THE ONLY theater of operations where there is REAL significant numbers, double digits to be exact, of disgruntled military personnel, UNlike that of iraq at 0.1%-but that's another story...)
No different than in these "pro-american" terrorists...only someone with his head up his @$$ would fall for that "pro-American" charade spouted forth from those actually still trying to justify getting involved in that conflict, and continue to try and justify it since the 90s, and will still try in another 10 years if they can get away with it.

"-and of no importance to us[Americans??]"
Better take a look of what is happening under your nose,fellow JW Watcher.
If you imagine you can bomb another country-drive out Christians-have the effrontery to try & hand over 15% of this country's land to Muslim Albanians-then FORGET MESS YOU MADE WHEN SHIT HITS FAN-You're in for a BIG SURPRISE!!
Anyway, you have thousands of 'grateful' Albanians on your own soil-if they are breeding as they do in Kosovo-there'll be a million of 'em
in no time.
And what will you do if Kosovo 'isn't handed over' on time - those 'Pro American ethnic Albanians' are gonna be very,very upset - gives them a chance for violence-not only against Serbs but Americans [especially those freedom loving,free wheeling Senators who have been so handsomely bribed with money from Albanian mafias in Kosovo]-we know they've plenty of weapons-re: Dix Six?
Yes, Be careful going down to the Woods when those cute Albanian Bears are holding a Jihad picnic...
All this was going on about the time of The Olympics Tanya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan. The skater from Kosovo. How sad all that was for what was going on there. Heavy fighting.
US Army head of staff yesterday gave a strong promise to his Serbian counterpart that US Army will protect Serbs by any means necessery if Albanians start to attack them.
That's something, that's great!
But if that promise isn't fulfiled (God forbid), from what I got to know here in Belgrade, it'll be major shit falling around. Certain serious well conected and influential people argue that Serbian Army must intervene to protect Serbs in Kosovo in case of repeating 2004 Albanian Muslim uprising against Serb civilians and churches. And that idea have widespread support among ordinary population, which is fed up with western behaviour towards Serbia. Only thing that prevents Serbia to voice that statement loudly is fear of repeating 1999 conflict with NATO over Kosovo, just now when Serbia is on ever faster economic developement pace (Serbian economy growth is already over 7% in this year under this terrible circumstances), and getting first benefits of stability so hardly achieved in past 7 years. There are even those hardliners who argue that Serbian Army in case of Albanian muslim uprising should enter Kosovo eather way, with or without consent of US&EU, even to the cost of new war with NATO.
Hopefuly this dark scenario won't happen.
LMAO @ morgane.
Your singing turns canaries green with envy...lol.
Just more proof napoleon was right:
"Never interfere with an enemy in the process of committing suicide."
There are even those hardliners who argue that Serbian Army in case of Albanian muslim uprising should enter Kosovo eather way, with or without consent of US&EU, even to the cost of new war with NATO.
Hopefuly this dark scenario won't happen
Don't forget, the Russians promised you their help and what did they do?
Not much!
Unfortunately, this dark scenario will take place in the future because the Albanians have stated their goals for the Greater Albania to extend all the way to Hungary.
The problem is that the Europeans are "afraid."
The worst thing to have in a unit is a traitor or spy; the next worst thing is a coward (fear is healthy -- it teaches respect, but a coward is someone who will sell you out to try to save themselves)
And the Eurocrates are cowards as much as those that have usurped control of the US government.
In any case, you must be prepared to protect yourself. Good luck.
Yes, Witness, some Serbs count on Russia. And with this latest twists, every day more and more... But Serbs generaly and primeraly count on themselves. If Russia supports them even better.
Shortly after my arrival here, I tried to find out what was the drive to fight NATO in 1999. It wasn't Milosevic, or Russians, but strong feeling that they are on the right side. Now, Serbs are even more convinced that they are on the right side.
Speaking about stability in the Balkans, outside of jihad concerns, this isn't going in good direction. Too many mistakes have been made and are made by the West.
Serbian boiling point is far behind now, only thing that is keeping that country not to sink in total revenge against both muslims and their western allies is sence that West will understand and help them in the end, that's why I came here at the first place.
Serbs are not easily scared, they've been fighting for their freedom for hunderts of years, their whole history is continous fight and sacrifice, and they are very proud of their heritage. Their story is powerfull, and they won't give in under US dhimmi threats.
I'm pleased that situation is improoving for many months now (mostly thanks to people like here and other pureharted people of influence in USA and EU), but I'm still very very concerned about this region.
WallsofByzant,
this is a rather good idea.
Serbian army must return to Kosovo by all means and under all circumstances at whatever costs - what on earth is "hardline" in this view , for God´s sake? Whose army should be stationed there, on the Serbian soil - a Japanese?
Economic growth is a nice thing of course, and given the entrepreneurial spirit of Serbs it will further thrive (provided we´re not bombed every couple of years), but if the choice is to be done between Kosovo and economic growth, it is obvious that return of Serbian institutions to Kosovo, including our army, has a much higher priority. Whatever the economic growth in Serbia is, Serbia is not Germany, - it doesn´t have Siemens, Daimler Chrysler; Shering etc. and it never will. Kosovo with its 1500 churches and monasteries is the best and most important Serbian contribution to mankind, the most important asset of the Serbian nation and we need to bring it back under our control.
It is obvious that the best guardians of Kosovo are Serbs themselves, with their own army.
Don't worry Serbian girls and boys, we are ready:

'Kosovo with its 1500 churches and monasteries is the best and most important Serbian contribution to mankind, the most important asset of the Serbian nation and we need to bring it back under our control.'
Our churches and monasteries hardly can be our best and most important contribution to all mankind. Even in middle ages, resisting the jihadist flood from the east on Kosovo field, Belgrade siege etc was our best contribution to common cause. But in modern time people, not building are a far greater contribution. From Tesla, Milankovic or Pupin inventions whole mankind have a benefit. Everybody use electric current, radio, telephone or weather forecast. Now, I would rather like to see that as gradual continuity in our contribution. In middle ages monasteries counts, cos they preserve culture and civilisation. In modern times science counts since it advance culture and civilisation. Giving Kosovo and Metohy to adherents of one barbaric death cult, and also selfconvinced natives, will be not only a mocking to every aspect, rule and law of western civilisation, but will also be a brutal carving of our personal history, memory and thus our contribution to mankind.
Best regards
Well Legija, there is no contradiction between what you wrote and what I have written. Sure, Tesla and Pupin were great scientists who indepted the world, and we hope to have few more of this sort, but those scientific discoveries ie the spirit that made them possible is a fruit of Judeo-Christian civilization, - thus it is utterly wrong to see the churches and monasteries of Kosovo as "old buildings" that have sort of decorative character only, suitable for attracting tourists. This is the life basis and it must be kept alive. Obviously, Serbia needs a proper re-christianization, as the rest of Europe as well (no wonder, after half a century of communism). Serbia has no future, economically, scientifically or whatsoever without Kosovo. I dare say, that also Europe has no future without Kosovo as a part of Serbia. Sure, most Europeans, brainwashed for decades with the growingly totalitarian, anti-christian, transnational, leftist ideology of the EU are still miles away from realizing this. The moment you start thinking about Christianity as some sort of "heritage" , you have lost the right and capability to resist Islam.
Last but not least, even if a more advanced and a civilized collective than Albanians would see itself as entitled to Kosovo (which is not the case, so far), it would be nevertheless a wrong claim. It is a Serbian asset. Period.
Ah , it's the great Julia Gorin.
What a writer.
Bullseye after bullseye.
I am a regular visitor, occasional poster to and avid supporter of Jihadwatch. But on this issue, I strongly disagree: any suggestion that Albanians in general are pro-Jihadi anti-Western is catastrophically wrong. Albanians never have, and never will, support any Islamist agenda in their homeland. I have pointed out several times here before that any nation that adopts a Roman Catholic who fought against the Ottomans as their national hero (Skanderberg) never ever will be dominated by Islam. Most Albanians are nominal Muslims. They drink alcohol and resent the attempt to Saudi-rise their country Anyone whose says otherwise, except for those Serb extremists who inhabit this board, and whose motivation is pure race hatred (see the posts that will surely follow this one) are liars. Albanians are Europeans and they are our friends. Long live Albania: Rrofte Republika Shiqperise.
As far as I know Serbia doesn't need Russian help to defeat jihadists in Balkans. Especially not the military one, but Serbia is desperate in a little political support. Serbian Army is formidable force that could crush Kosovo in matter of weeks if not days. The problem is not if Serbs can do it, but would they be allowed to.
It is all about US double game and all this bravery and savagery coming from Albanians is just a projection of non-existant power hiding behind hijacked US State Department cause and most powerful Christian army in the world(now there is an irony). I'm sure that most of the US administration is not informed about this historical mistake in making. Even the Fort Dix Albanian plot went quiet with those supporting terrorists in Kosovo in their territorial claim, but they should know one thing -
If Kosovo gets independent bombs won't be going off in Belgrade, but on very US soil!
Northumbrian, you Albanian apologist!!! Muslim Albanians are JIHADIST, they kill even Christian Albanians!!! So much for the argument that their strugle is based on ethnicity.
I'm not a Serb, so what of it?!?!?!? Am I Serbian extremist?
Ofcourse that stupid dhimmi post will have 10 angry posts following!!! Cool albanian muslims, they drink alkohol, love America... AND DECAPITATE MONKS AND RAPE NUNS!!!
What do you think of us, that we all here are idiots. Morons, perhaps? Hmmm?
How dare you call yourself JWatcher, shame on you!
The West will try to persuade Serbs with promises of economic help and entrance in European Union so that they give up Kosovo.
There will be also threats of economic sanctions and isolation.
Everything depends on the size of Serb decisiveness and patriotism.
albanians are so pro american is that why they planned to bomb fort dix?
serbs should not give up kosovo for the EU or for western Aid they should try to hold on to kosovo

"Most Albanians are nominal Muslims. They drink alcohol..."
Well, seems when it comes to Islamic terrorism, drinking alcohol suddenly becomes a virtue and suddenly being "nominal believer" is sign of integrity. Strange...
jcom972
Thanks for compliment,Sweetie!
'The Northumbrian'
Am sure Venerable Bede would have commended your remarks about 'Albanians drinking alcohol' & only being 'nominal Muslims'-gee that makes everything just dandy...
You may want to look up the term "singing like a canary" in reference to interrogations before thanking me...
When showtime starts (and the enemy figures out we know about their impending attack, down to the logistical level, names, dates, times, places, and what's going to happen in response), thanking me is the last thing you'll likely be doing.
*WEG*
Have a nice day!
;-)
Ah, the admirable Northumbria returns.
So, everyone who disagrees with him is a liar.
Ooooooh
Or a Serb extremist
Oooooooh
And that's about it.
And then the refrain "long live Albania".
Oooh , that is cheesy , more so when no one is threatening Albania's existence.
One question, why did the Albanians REelect, Berisha, the very same guy who'd welcomed the EIJ into Albania with open arms just a few years prior?
Even to this day, the EIJ, are called "the Albanian returnees" in the Egyptian press at their trials.
The EIJ are so extreme they make up the radical wing of AL Qaeda, if there is such a thing as the radical wing of Al Qaeda.
But that's just fine and dandy for the glorious Albanian electorate.
What are you talking about jcom?
"While the Serbs proved to be no saints by any means in the conflict"
I see you don't substantiate this statement.
They were supported by EVERY minority and also by the CATHOLIC Kosovo Albanians in their fight against NATO and the KLA
Why don't you give reasons why you insist on criticising the Serb force in the Kosovo conflict?
They fought a good clean war, were on the right side and were betrayed by Dhimmis in the West.
The Serb forces were given very strict orders to treat civillians very well, and over 600 soldiers were put on trial for crimes as little as taking bread from a Kosovo Albanian's house.
The Nato forces on the other hand stood by when the Pristina Jewish population were torched out of their homes by the KLA. When the Jews protested to a nearby NATO officer he just stood, arms folded, and did nothing.
The NATO troops also did nothing when the KLA torched Christian churches.
So care to substantiate your claim?
Also , what is WP ?
Is it FrongPage you're referring to ? Then it's hardly a Leftist organisation as you contend but a very Conservative organisation indeed - NEO on foreign policy.
So what is WP?

It must be tough: to back a war that has decimated the Infidel population of Iraq and where Infidel soldiers are giving their lives so that the Quran can be the basis for the Constitution.
