Harald Bornschain, a weapons dealer and neo-Nazi activist, opened the

Success
of Radical Party in Serbia consequence of wrong policy of EU and U.S
towards Serbia-Montenegro
Despite
some positive incentives from the EU and the admission of
Serbia-Montenegro to the Council of Europe the two main generators of
disappointment for ordinary Serbs remained - the pro-Albanian
international policy in Kosovo and one-sided approach of the Hague
Tribunal based on the so called "Serbian collective guilt".

The recent
success of the Radical party, still formally headed by the Hague
Tribunal prisoner Dr. Vojislav Seselj, was not a particular surprise for
many Balkans political analysts. The program of radicals is in fact more
based on criticism of the democratic block which took the power after
toppling Milosevic regime than on any constructive program of economic
and institutional revitalization of the country. After the Milosevic's
arrest ordinary Serbs expected that the West would sincerely support new
Democratic Serbian Government and change the its previous policy towards
Belgrade which was based on collective punishment of the Serbian people.
Despite some positive incentives from the EU and the admission of
Serbia-Montenegro to the Council of Europe the two main generators of
disappointment for ordinary Serbs remained - the pro-Albanian
international policy in Kosovo and one-sided approach of the Hague
Tribunal based on the so called "Serbian collective guilt".
More than four
years after the separatist insurrection of KLA and the subsequent NATO
bombing campaign against Serbia and its people the policy of some
countries towards Belgrade in respect to its southern Province of Kosovo
has not significantly changed. Serbs are still being killed in Kosovo,
their churches vandalized and their property usurped. Despite UNSCR 1244
Kosovo has not been constituted as a substantial autonomy within FRY
(i.e. Serbia and Montenegro) but has become a quasi-independent State.
Although the UN Resolution contained concrete standards which should be
fulfilled in order to launch the final status settlement, completely new
revision of the Resolution has been recently made in order to override
Serbia's sovereignty over its southern Province. Kosovo Albanians seem
to be still seen as allies of the West although the tiny Province with
almost no functioning economy and highly developed network of organized
crime, drug smuggling and prostitution links hardly gives any hopes of
becoming a part of Europe one day. It is clear to every economic expert
that Kosovo is not economically sustainable and that in case of its
independence from Serbia the main "industry" would be organized crime.
"The Heroin republic", as some journalists already call it, would be a
gateway to Europe not only for drug smugglers but also for terrorists.
It is no secret that organized crime creates a fertile ground for
springing of terrorist groups, particularly in predominantly Muslim
territories such as Kosovo and Bosnia. Serbs in Kosovo feel to be left
to themselves and failed through their participation in Kosovo
institutions to essentially improve their situation. Kosovo provisional
institutions have proved to be nothing but a smoke-screen behind which
Kosovo Albanians continue with ethnic discrimination and repression
while the Constitutional framework does not offer any efficient
mechanism for preventing adoption of discriminatory decissions.
At the same
time destabilization of the neighboring FYR Macedonia has already
progressed. The Western part of the country can hardly be considered a
territory which is under full control of Skopje. At the same time ethnic
Albanian minorities in South-east Serbia (Presevo valley) and eastern
Montenegro are more and more inclined to see their future in joining
Greater Kosovo which is seen by Albanian nationalists as a beacon of
pan-Albanian unity. The West in the eyes of ordinary Serbs seems to be
either helpless to prevent further expansion of Albanian extremism or is
suspected of supporting Greater Albanian claims for certain other
reasons. The policy of those Serbs who agreed to participate in
institutions and the readiness of the Orthodox Church to support
Parliamentary elections are seen now as futile attempts to offer a hand
of friendship and cooperation and it is very possible that the Serb
Coalition POVRATAK will reconsider its participation in the
institutions, particularly now when they will not be too much pressed by
Belgrade to stay in them.
On the other
hand the promises of the Hague Tribunal and Mrs. Del Ponte that the
crimes of the former KLA leaders will be duly investigated and punished
have proved to be nothing but a propaganda decoy to justify additional
arrest warrants against the leading Serbian generals, most of whom are
suspected of war crimes only because they were on leading positions at
that time. If that logic were followed in the Albanian case then
immediate arrest warrants could be issued against Thaci, Haradinaj, Ceku
and other former KLA leaders who still enjoy immunity in Kosovo as
"democratic leaders". Even the Interpol arrest warrants which were
officially accepted by the Interpol HQ against Thaci, Ceku and Haradinaj
seem to be unilaterally ignored by the UNMIK authorities who intervened
on behalf of Kosovo Albanian leaders despite all international laws and
standards.
In short, such
one-sided and openly pro-Albanian policy of UNMIK, some Western
countries and the Hague Tribunal has demonstrated to Serbs that the same
measures of justice do not stand for Serbs and Albanians, not to mention
Bosniaks and Croats. The Hague Tribunal is seen by majority of Serbs as
a tool of justifying blunders of Clinton's administration and the NATO
bombing of Yugoslavia without Security Council permission.
Now the world
politics scene seems to be radically changed. The main boogeyman is no
longer in the Balkans but in the Middle East. It is exactly from their
former Muslim protégées that NATO troops and diplomats may expect
possible threat in the Balkans which Al Qaida would like to use as a
springboard towards Europe, particularly after September 11. However,
many Serbs still think that the Western support of Balkan Muslims and
their separatist movements is a way to make a balance with no so
Muslim-friendly policy of the West in the Middle East.
The only way
to strengthen the democratic block in Serbia and regain the confidence
of democratically oriented Serbs would be a more balanced policy of the
West in Kosovo as well as more objective work of the Hague Tribunal. Any
support of secession of Kosovo from Serbia would lead the Balkans to
further instabilities and wars. The fragile peace in Bosnia and FYR
Macedonia will be at stake too. Only strong support to the idea of
self-determination of ethnic communities within democratic framework of
existing countries in form of wider autonomous regions might be a way to
prevent further instability. Otherwise, radicalization in Serbia can
trigger additional regional problems and seriously obstruct process of
European integration of the entire Western Balkans.

Today
the ERP KIM Info-Service has received reliable information from UNMIK

that they were eyewitnesses of the attack on the UN bus with Russian and

Independence of Kosovo does not resolve problems
Summary of the
report by the
German Institute for
International and Security Affairs
Analysis gives little cause for optimism: Kosovo will still have to
fight a long time with difficult structural, political and
social-economic challenges, while at the same time the political elites
in Serbia and Kosovo show little readiness to give constructive policy
proposals. The premature recognition of the independence of Kosovo (or
any other final status solution) could not solve the substantial
institutional, constitutional as well as development and safety problems
of the Province. Therefore, is to be feared that the province will
remain dependent on international help a long time. Moreover, it remains
doubtful whether and when Kosovo will be able to jump on the train to
European integration. Therefore German and European policy will have to
adjust accordingly for the long haul in the south Balkans.

What is this love
affair that the West has with Islam? Our President, speaking from the
White House during Ramadan, calls Islam a religion of charity, peace and
compassion. Try telling that to the Christians who are being crucified
in the Sudan. Secretary of State Powell has stated that we should bring
in more clergy, more journalists and more educators from Islamic
countries. Wasn't 9/11 enough for them? Do we want to make it easier for
terrorists to come into our country to cause us further harm? Need I
remind you that approval was given to the Saudi Arabian government to
build their Islamic Saudi Academy?

Today the ERP KIM
Info-Service has received reliable information from UNMIK sources that
several Kosovo Albanian individuals from Decani confirmed that they were
eyewitnesses of the attack on the UN bus with Russian and Serb
passengers. The condemnation of this attack has already been issued by
the chief of UNMIK while the Russian TV showed the video footage of the
stoning in the center of Decani town. The Russian and Serbs who were in
the attacked bus confirmed that several kilometers away from Decani,
near Pec, they had to change the vehicle and continued traveling in a
police transporter because of the cold temperature in the bus with a
broken window.
However Kosovo Police
Service (which in Decani Municipality consists only of ethnic Albanians)
denied that there had been any stoning. We are enclosing the
report from Pristina Albanian language daily "Zeri"

KPS Said That
Nobody Attacked The Bus In Decani
09 Jan (Zeri) – Kosovo Police Service in Decani disproved information
for regarding the bus containing the Serbs and Russians that were going
to Decani monastery that were stoned while it was passing the center of
town.
KPS Spokesman, Ramadan Boshtraj explained that UNMIK police and KFOR
troops escorted the bus and none of the officials informed of any
attack.
"That is not true. During the entire escort of the convoy, police didn't
notice even the smallest provocation," said Boshtraj.
He added that the convoy passed through the center of Decani precisely
at 1220, at the time when the residents were expecting the visit of Head
Administrator, Harri Holkeri in front of the municipal administration.
"Nothing was noticed and no sign was at the place of the event. The
convoy went towards Peja under police protection without any problem,"
confirmed Ramadan Boshtraj.

Two activists from the German neo-Nazi
scene have opened a business in Kosovo whose activities include,
among other things, the sale of weapons.
According to the daily "Mitteldeutsche
Zeitung", Frank Kerkhoff, the former head of the radical right wing
National Democratic Party of Germany for the Saxony-Anhalt region,
and Harald Bornschain, a weapons dealer and neo-Nazi activist,
opened the business with offices in Djakovica and Magdeburg.
The paper's claims were confirmed by the Office for the
Protection of the Constitutional Order of the Federal Province
of Saxony-Anhalt based in Magdeburg.
According to the paper, Kerkhoff and
Bornschain, together with a citizen of Kosovo, direct the Albacon
Company.
According to the state security of
Saxony-Anhalt, the company is active in the areas of transportation
and tourism but also services in the weapons field which are
formally declared as services intended for hunters.
The Office for the Protection of the
Constitutional Order, the paper writes, "is carefully following the
activities of the two right wing extremists in Kosovo and their
possible further ties with Germany".
However, neither the federal state
security service nor the regional Office for the Protection of the
Constitutional Order have jurisdiction over developments abroad even
if German citizens are involved in them.

Connections of Kosovo Albanian nationalists (Balli Kombetar) and Nazis
in the Second World War were very well documented in historical sources.
The ethnic Albanian Skenderbeg SS division committed gruesome crimes
against the Serb, Jewish and Slav Macedonian population in Kosovo and
North FYR Macedonia.
In fact, one of the first acts of the
SS Skanderbeg division in April 1944 was the arresting of 281 Jews in
Pristina, and "510 Jews, Communists, Partisans and individual suspects".
According to Bernard J. Fischer, writing in Albania at War, 1939-1945
(Purdue University Press, West Lafayette, Indians, USA, 1999, p. 187).
All 281 Jews were deported to Germany - probably to Bergen-Belsen death
camp.... The Jewish population of Yugoslavia today is estimated to be
2500 with most of them living in Belgrade. The recent conflict in Kosovo
has ironically led to the exodus of the last of the remaining Jews of
Kosovo - something that didn't even happen in the last war in 1941. More

During the last months of 2003 the pressure has increased to achieve a
long-term stable political solution for Kosovo. The criticism by the
Kosovars of UNMIK is growing, new ethnic violence is shaking the region,
and the foreign policy interests of the international community is
turning toward other crisis centers. What are the prospects for the
democratic and constitutional consolidation of the Province? Which are
the chances of achieving the goal of the international community for a
multiethnic society? What economic opportunities present themselves?
What are the interests and initiatives pursued by the main players in
Prishtina and Belgrade? And finally: where is the starting point for a
realistic European policy?

In den letzten Monaten des Jahres 2003 hat sich der Druck verstärkt,
eine langfristig tragfähige politische Lösung für Kosovo zu suchen. Die
Kritik der Kosovaren an UNMIK wächst, neue ethnische Gewalt erschüttert
die Region, und das außenpolitische Interesse der Staatengemeinschaftet

demokratische und rechtsstaatliche Konsolidierung der Provinz? Welche
Chancen hat das von der Staatengemeinschaft verfolgte Ziel einer multi-ethnischen
Gesellschaft? Welche wirtschaftlichen Perspektiven stellen sich? Welche
Interessen und Ansätze verfolgen die Hauptakteure in Prishtina und
Belgrad? Und letztlich: An welchen Punkten könnte europäische Politik
realistischerweise ansetzen?
Die Analyse gibt wenig Anlaß zu Optimismus: Kosovo wird noch lange Zeit
mit tiefgreifenden strukturellen, politischen und sozialökonomischen
Herausforderungen zu kämpfen haben; gleichzeitig zeigen die politischen
Eliten in Serbien und Kosovo wenig Bereitschaft zu konstruktiven
Politikansätzen. Eine frühzeitige Anerkennung der Unabhängigkeit Kosovos
(oder jede andere endgültige Statuslösung) könnte die substantiellen
institutionellen, rechtsstaatlichen sowie entwicklungs- und
sicherheitspolitischen Probleme der Provinz nicht lösen. Daher ist zu
befürchten, daß die Provinz noch lange Zeit von internationaler Hilfe
abhängig sein wird. Zudem bleibt fraglich, ob und wann das Land je auf
den europäischen Integrationszug wird aufspringen können. Deutsche und
europäische Politik wird sich folglich darauf einstellen müssen, auf dem
südlichen Balkan einen langen Atem zu beweisen.

Gracanica, January 10, 2003
(...)
On Thursday, I received a "Congressional Human Rights Caucus," on "The
Future of Albanians in Montenegro," a congressional briefing on the
alleged plight of Albanians in Montenegro. I have seen nothing from this
congressional caucus, co-chaired by Wolf and Tom Lantos (D-CA) regarding
the Serbian population of Kosovo which has been decimated by murder and
ethnic cleansing. I invite you to read one of the many updates (below)
to Congressman Wolf regarding our intervention in the Balkans, our stand
against a Christian people and our pro stand for the Muslims. I
sometimes scratch my head in wonderment! What in God's name are we doing
supporting the enemies of Christ? The list of witnesses at the briefing
includes "The Honorable Joe DioGuardi," [if I am not mistaken, he is of
Albanian descent] former Congressman from New York who, along with Bob
Dole in 1987, received $50,000 and $1.2 million respectively from an
Albanian fund raiser in New York. DioGuardi is also a paid lobbyist for
the Albanians. Shirley Cloyes, another witness is Joe DioGuardi's wife.
Where is there a "witness" for the Montenegrins? Wolf, today, aligns
himself with Tom Lantos whose hatred of the Serbs is equaled only to
that of Hitler's hatred of the Jews.
It now appears that Congressman Wolf is once again sticking his nose
into the situation in Montenegro, a province that along with Serbia is
all that's left of the former Yugoslavia. Again, Wolf has taken a
position in opposition against a Christian people who are fighting the
same Albanian terrorists that the Serbs encountered over a decade ago.
What right do we have in taking land from other people and giving it to
their enemy, which is what we did to the Serbs when we supported Osama
bin Laden's Kosovo Liberation Army mafia?

Albanian American Civic League led by Joe DioGuardi and Shirly Cloyes
is one of main centers of promotion of Albanian nationalist and
chauvinist ideas
in the U.S. Congress and other American institutions
What is this love affair that the West has with Islam? Our President,
speaking from the White House during Ramadan, calls Islam a religion of
charity, peace and compassion. Try telling that to the Christians who
are being crucified in the Sudan. Secretary of State Powell has stated
that we should bring in more clergy, more journalists and more educators
from Islamic countries. Wasn't 9/11 enough for them? Do we want to make
it easier for terrorists to come into our country to cause us further
harm? Need I remind you that approval was given to the Saudi Arabian
government to build their Islamic Saudi Academy? Everywhere Islam has
gone there have been holy wars, i.e., jihad [the word, "jihad" is a
concept of Mohammed]. Traditionally, Islam is spread by the sword. Why
do you think there is a sword on the Saudi flag? Their holy war against
Christendom has now come to our shores but they have an even greater
weapon. They are using our democracy to change our society, our culture,
our American way of life, and above all, to change this Christian nation
into an Islamic one. Don't laugh. When we were in Saudi Arabia, one
Saudi told George that the reason Allah gave Saudi Arabia the oil was to
go out and spread Islam and we are already seeing the fruits of their
spreading Islam in this country. When we were in the Soviet Union we saw
large billboards proclaiming the goal of a totally communist world; in
Saudi Arabia we saw almost identical billboards depicting an Islamic
world. Just as communism cannot co-exist with any other political
system, Islam cannot co-exist with any other religion. Daniel Pipes has
an excellent piece called "Islam Conquering America." If you don't have
it, I would be very happy to send it to you.
It is quite apparent that Congressman Wolf cares not a fig for the
future of the few remaining Serbs in Kosovo, nor of their suffering, nor
of their violent deaths at the hands of the Albanians - the recent
machine gunning of Serbian youths while swimming in a river, or the
brutal axe-murders of elderly Serbs - and the killings continue. Because
of our intervention, Bosnia and Kosovo are economic and social basket
cases contrary to what the people are being told. I regret that
Congressman Wolf is part of this disgrace.
Why is this so important to me? It is because we betrayed an ally of two
world wars, where over a million and a half were exterminated in
Croatia's death camps [with the help of the Bosnian and Albanian Muslim]
so brutally that even the German SS were appalled. An ally who rescued
over 500 downed American pilots at great sacrifice to themselves. Their
reward? We bombed the Hell out of them for 78 days based on alleged
atrocities committed by Bosnian Muslim forces, to appease the Muslim
world, and to promote a religion whose aim is to eventually obliterate
all traces of Christianity. Consider that at one time, Syria, Egypt, and
Lebanon to name a few were all Christian countries until the onslaught
of Islam. In our schools today, Mohammed is in; Christ is out. Muslim
children get a room to pray during school hours for the entire month of
Ramada; Christian children cannot even bend their heads in prayer over
their lunches.
