Now, to address this a very one sided article drawn from very limited personal experience and worthless scholarship on Serbian-Albanian history, not to mention Schwartz’s failure to acknowledge in his many diatribes that he is a convert to the religion of Muhamad is obviously mendacious.
I am shocked to see respectable PajamasMedia allowing this self-loathing Jew-for Allah-spewing his hate .You lost a great deal of credibility in my eyes. Equally disgraceful, the PajamasMedia grants little to no access to your pages to any Serbian historian or journalists to give opposing views. This is hardly freedom of the press, the press is being used in this case to bludgeon Serbia’s cultural aspirations. And the attempt to turn Schwartz, a.k.a. Suleyman Ahmad, into an author and expert of Balkan matters will come to haunt all those helping him in his latest self-invention.
Schwartz uses his Jewish name in a cheap bid for instant credibility: if a Jew defends Muslims, surely he must have a point…? But even if his identity was not so murky, his arguments would still be rubbish; his history is simply wrong, and his conclusions are vacuous nonsense.
Schwartz or shall I call you by your Muslim name ‘Suleyman Ahmad’, you justify the theft of 15% of somebody else’s territory and then blame those robbed for revolting.We have in Serbia a situation in which the U.S. has forced an action –the proclamation of independence by the Kosovo Albanians — that is in clear violation of the most fundamental principles of international law after World War II!Borders cannot be changed by force and without consent .
What’s particularly gratifying in watching the Serbs protest and burn is that it shows the Serbs haven’t been completely coapted and turned into harmless little bootlickers. They have international law on their side, and they have history on their side, but the real question is whether or not they still have their souls. The protests , and the burning of the embassy, show that they do.
And what do America and their lapdogs get for all this? Johnny, let’s show the West their prize: Lovely Kosovo, a pre-fab failed Islamic state ruled by narcomafia thugs who successfully ethnically cleansed not only Christian Serbs but also the Roma (gypsies) and even fellow Muslims in the minority Gorani and Bosniak communities, for the simple reason that they speak Serbian rather than Albanian.
But wait, there’s more! If America and the West order this special Failed Islamic Kosovo State now, they’ll also get this special bonus offer: a total unraveling of the post-WW2 geopolitical order, with all sorts of enclaves demanding independence based on the “Kosovo Precedent,” from Cyprus, Israel and Georgia to Thailand and Sri Lanka, and all points in between! Isn’t that just swell! Because you know, America and the West really suffered awfully in those post-WW2 years with the way things were. Why not just fuck it all up and see how it turns up! Roll the dice, baby! You’re a gambler, aren’tcha? Why leave the table when you’re a million bucks ahead, when you can turn that million into 10 million, or 100 million!
Every shit-head who conned America into these humanitarian wars, from the David Rieffs and Thomas Friedmans to the Bill Kristols and Richard Perles, there’s a message for you in the flames rising from Belgrade’s US Embassy, a message from someone named “Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.” It says here: “Thanks, dumbfucks–oops, I mean thanks, guys! Couldn’t have destroyed American power better myself if I tried. And believe me, I’ve tried! Drinks are on me–and heck, I don’t even drink! Ha-ha! Yours, The Mahmster.
After almost a decade of tacit support for Albanian separatists in the Serbian province of Kosovo, in 1998 the U.S. and some European capitals backed a terrorist movement that sought to achieve Kosovo’s separation by force – the KLA. An orchestrated diplomatic and media campaign of demonization described Serbia’s anti-terrorism campaign as “genocidal” and resulted in a blatantly illegal NATO invasion in 1999. The subsequent occupation of Kosovo, technically by the UN but in practice by NATO, has seen systematic violence against the lives, property, and culture of non-Albanians, Serbs in particular. Despite being in complete control of the province, neither NATO nor the UN have shown any inclination to stop, condemn, or reverse the consequences of this violence, the result of which is a 90-percent-plus Albanian majority that “democratically” demands independence and treats the remaining Serbs like the kaffirs of apartheid South Africa. Furthermore, Washington and Brussels have also backed armed Albanian groups in Macedonia and inner Serbia (Presevo valley), despite their terrorist tactics.
Evidence clearly shows that the collapse of Yugoslavia in the 1990s and afterwards was not a consequence of some imaginary “Serbian aggression,” but a pattern of aggression seeking to “balkanize” the region through the creation of compliant mini-states.
Any people, anywhere in the world, facing this set of circumstances would be hostile to the USA several times over. In fact, there are nations that ferociously hate the United States over far less. The Serbs do not, however – not yet, anyway.
If “the West” doesn’t care about Serb approval, why would it need Serb cooperation?! And if such cooperation was really needed, why did the West support the separation of Kosovo, knowing what sort of reaction it would produce in Serbia? Why has it continued to browbeat Serbia on every occasion, demanding ever more and offering absolutely nothing? why the continued flogging of Serbia, if it’s bound to bring the Radicals to power? And the only logical answer is that to the west it makes absolutely no difference whether the government in Belgrade is “tyrannical” or “democratic,” “ultranationalist” or “pro-Western.” To those who desire to “solve the Serbian question” by crushing Serbia, both sycophancy and defiance will be treated with equal hatred and contempt.
Once the people of Serbia understand they have nothing to gain by crawling , and nothing to lose by resisting its dictates, they will see the clarity of the choice facing them.
But why Kosovo, neutral observers might ask? Not surprising to me,Kosovo, province of Serbia is at the crossroads of highways, railways, riverways, oil and gas pipelines, and in that context the issue of Kosovo – though threatening and incendiary – becomes only part of a geopolitical jigsaw. Which is why I always emphasize the following: you cannot satisfy the extremely particular interests and 19th-century ideological demands of 1.7 million Albanians in Kosovo, while permanently frustrating eight million Serbs, who are the key to the long-term stability of Western Balkans.
