THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE SENT THE ALBANIAN PEOPLE MESSAGES OF SUPPORT. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

Dr Aleksander Stipcevic's Article- - "The Question of Illyrian-Albanian Continuity....."

    After reading this article, I became very saddened that this struggle
to prove ones own identity would have to be so insanely difficult because
of a bizarre nationalistic aim of another people for a power hold on the
region.  I don't believe it is even worth fighting the concoctions and
false theories of the nationalist Serbian "historians" anymore.  Dump them.
At home I have a copy of the "Oxford Family Encyclopedia" and it clearly
says when the Slavs invaded the Balkans and where they originated and that
the Albanians are descendants of the Ancient Illyrians.  Also, from
Encyclopaedia Britanicca online, I have found excellent resources looking
under "Kosovo" and "Albania".  Some of the resources are from Yugoslav
history sources, and one can clearly see there the bias.  But through so
many other sources, than Yugoslav ones, there is no doubt about the
Albanians being decendants of the Illyrians.  And their ancient role in the
Kosova region.
Unfortunately, VERY unfortunately, I do read today in many articles in the
United States, the moreYugoslav sided version, mostly about the "Battle of
Kosovo" and I believe that is where the struggle still rests. Personally,
through my own research I realize there were many battles in Kosovo, and
Albanians fought the Ottomans as well, including a leader who held them off
14 times.  But , in my opinion, most of these American journalists are
simply lazy, and not even doing their own research, but relying on someone
elses history books.
Linguistic and arcaological sciences are the greatest proofs in this day
and age.
I think it best to focus not on struggling with the bogus nationalist
theories coming from Serbian nationalists, but to focus on the real
information that is out there and concentrate on presenting that to the
national community.  To the United States.
I am not a professional journalist, but I have taken deep interest in the
plight of the ethnic Albanian.  Maybe because I am Finnish, and in history
there was an effort to both try to "Swedisize" and "Russificize" the Finns.
They had to fight to retain their language and culture through these two
dominant powers, until they finally gained their independence in 1917.
I appreciate these articles very much.  I am only so sorry that your
struggle for justice has been and still is up against such an evil.  
Thankyou.

Hello.  I am a reporter and will be in Kosova soon.  I am a big fan of your
website and would love to interview you about your news service. 

Are you based in Europe or the US?  How do I contact you for an interview? 
Can you e-mail me some background information about your website?

Thank you very much for any help you can give me.

Cooperazione Odontoiatrica Internazionale (Italian Dental Aid) is an italian NGO working in Oral health. We are still working in the refugee camps of Don Bosco (Tirana), Shijak, RRusbull 1, Kavaje and Valona organized by the italian Protezione Civile in the "Missione Arcobaleno".

WE would like to continue our work helping in the reconstruction in Kosovo, but we need official contacts with the governamental health services of Kosovo. 

If you are able to find a contact for us we will soon help again Kosovo people in reconstructing their country.

Hello,

there was at your site for a couple of weeks an interview
with the serb patriarch that I didn't read. I am curious to know if this man was
supporting Serb nationalism to the point that he agreed with serb terrorism & killings. Where do I find it?

I also wish to know official positions of Kosova Provisory Government on orthodox church   remaining there in Pec, Prishtina and other places, as for
plans to restore albanian monuments in Kosova and orthodox monasteries.

I have been following on internet the war there and your
site was the one I prefered for the background information on Kosova (History & Maps: congrats for these ones!!) as well as  the last minute description of the fightings. You have really done a GREAT Job.

Congratulations for your site & best Wishes for Peace&Wealth in Kosova for the years to come!

This is a question about the name o Albania. In german maps I have seen they use another name, that should be the proper one "Chyptria" or something like it. How is Albania called in Albania? Where does the word "Albania" come from?

I heard albanians are, mythically speaking, "sons of the eagle". How do you say it in Albanian?

Another question: can you recommend me a good site to investigate about the Illyrians?

Thank you & Best regards again,

Demian

Alb-Net Response: Shqipëria is the term for Albania in Albanian, which means Land of the Eagles.  Albanians, or Shqiptarë literally means "Sons of the Eagle."

please could you give me any information on the rights of Kosovar refugees
to reside in the UK now that the air strikes have stopped ?

Please could you also give me any information about how a refugee here in
the UK can send money to their family in Kosovo, for example is it possible
to set up a bank account there.

                                 Thankyou

Dear sirs,

for a long time now, I have done what I could for the independence of
Kosova. One of my articles (http://jurist.law.pitt.edu/simop.htm) was
also published somewhere on your web page.

Presently, however, I find myself unable to continue to do anything,
because of recent UCK-actions. As you have yourself reported in your
news, and as has been reported far more clearly in numerous press
reports, even on our local press here by German reporters in the German
sector of Kosova, UCK commandos attack aagain and again non-Albanian
citizens of Kosova in a way identical with previous Serbian actions.
Girls are raped, even nuns. Old, helpless people are killed. Houses are
pillaged and burnt down. In an UcK barracks in Prizren, German soldiers
have discovered a torture chamber of the UcK! The scale of these actions
is, of course, far more limited than that of the Serbian crimes. But
that is due to the efforts of KFOR. These actions clearly are no simple
isolated individual acts of revenge (which also would not be justified
but would to some degree be understandable). They are of the same nature
as those by the Serbian government: they are planned and organized
racist genocidal crimes. This is by now also seen by the Albanian press,
which has started also to publish such reports, but only very
cautiously. The Albanian journalists evidently are afraid. So we have
here, actually, the beginning of a reign of terror which might in the
end be equal to that of Miloshevic. It already now hinders protests
against the continued Serbian prosecution of Albanians in Southern
Serbia (Eastern Kosova) and against the continued Serbian occupation of
parts of Northern Kosova. For how can I or anybody else protest against
this when the Serbs now are doing only what the Kosovars do themselves?
This is an absolutely terrible situation. The UcK or those in the UcK
who plan and organize and execute such actions actually giving the final
voctory to Milosheviq! Please talk out against these criminals loud and
clear! Condemn the criminal elements in the UcK, name names! If you are
really fighting for Kosovar independence, you have to stand up now, or
you can forget about freedom for Kosova. This is something you have to
do. Protests by foreigners like myself are not enough (I did protest
already, in letters to Zeri ditor, which published the letter, and in
another to Koha ditore, which has not published it to date); you must
yourselves have the courage to speak up now!

Yours sincerely, F.Muenzel

I add the letter I wrote to Koha ditore:

Yes, I do understand all that has been done to the Kosovars.  Have
supported the air campaign, and was ready to support a ground campaign.
Now is the time for Kosovars to show that they are *not* like those Serb
thugs sent by Slobo.  Show the world that you are different.  Put a
human corridor around those Serbs still in Kosova.  Worry about those
that were part of the slaughter until they can be fairly tried in a
court of law.  By doing what Slobo's men did, only makes me wonder if we
now need to take action against the Kosovars.  Do some PR.  Show the
news folks you are serious.  Make it evident that you aren't like
Slobo.  Replacing one set of killing with another is such a waste.

Hello,
    I became aware of your website because I am very  fortunate to be a receipient of communication from the Women in Black organization.  They realize that my heart is pure and that I have only the best intentions for the good and decent people of the entire world.  The following email message is what I sent to two other email addresses- Claude Lesselier in Paris at the Women's Center and Anne Marie Weiss-Armush, Coordinator, Dallas Kosova Refugee Committee.  That message is as follows: I have just read of the plight of Dr. Flora Brovina who impresses me as a wonderful person.  I have, as a private US citizen, emailed President Clinton, Madeline Albright, and Jesse Helms as was suggested in the email that I received from Moira Fradinger at Yale University.
    As a publisher of a unique periodical entitled True Democracy, we will do much more, but it will take time.  My magazine is not available at this time.  Just yesterday, I emailed Moira Fradinger because I need help.  I am not a rich person financially.  I am rich in knowledge about my US Government because of my friend who is from Iran.  He shared so much information with me about what my Government did to Iran, and even Israel, that this is the reason that I could become a publisher.  I knew him in Los Angeles, where I lived all my life until nearly the age of 47.
    I moved to New York, got a library master's degree and learned, what for me made all the puzzle pieces fit--the REAL reason that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.  It has to do with what he wanted to do.  The entire world was betrayed when JFK was murdered by my own Government.  
    We will come together and make my terribly corrupt Federal Government accountable to the good people of the entire world with my magazine.  True Democracy will be translated into every country's language so the people of the world will be able to read what it says.
    I am very much hoping to get this magazine out in Fall, 1999 but it might be Winter, 1999 before the first issue appears.  It is a quarterly publication.
    If you can reach Dr. Brovina in the meantime, tell her that I will do everything in my power to secure her medical help by qualified doctors and that we will get her released just as soon as is humanly possible.
    My Government has perpetuated so many deceits on the people of the US that the first issue must dispel those deceits before we can do anything about other Governments who are perpetuating horrible deeds toward their people.
       I have printed out the email message (I always print them out) regarding your mother.  That message can be published in my magazine so people in every country can read the information.
Thank you very much and please know that I have profound simpathy for Dr. Brovina's plight.
Sincerely,
Arlene Johnson

Look for yourself.  Check army movements inside Kosova. Milosevic would
be a fool not to do it. Leaving Serb paramilitary in Kosova,  disarming
the KLA and bringing it 3,500 Russia peacekeepers provides the perfect
opporutnity.  Take preventive action before it is too late!

The move against Montenegro may (yes, may) wait until the arrival of
more Russia peacekeepers.  With them and Serb paramilitary forces
already in place behind outnumberbed NATO forces and disarmed KLA, you
can't stop this plan.  He'd be stupid not to try it.

Do not take this scenario likely. It's Milo and the Russians to a "T."
Remember what happened at Pristina airport. Note the capture of six MUP
soldiers coordinating with paramilitary.  I guarantee this is exactly
what Milo, the Russians and Serb MUP and paramilitary guerillas inside
Kosova have in mind.

It is a perfect strategy for Milo and the Russians and
a very probable one.  I'm not sure if you can stop it unless you act
first.  Please contact NATO allies and get more force there first.

Also, the situation in Mitrovice must be resolved before the Russian
peacekeepers arrive or you will face problems that folks will say you
should have anticipated.

To Whom It May Concern,

I am Albanian-American from Prespa Macedonia.  I have done all the things
that I can to help Albanians in Kosova and continue to do so.  One thing that
I think Albanians should stress and inform the American public is our
ancestrial hetitage in Kosova, due back thousands of years ago.  We must do
this because there are a lot of people trying to "re-invent" history.   Also,
please send me info about Kosova. 
Albanians were in Kosovo before any Serbs ever existed  (Newsweek
Magazine, April 5th edition, page 38).  Albanians are Illyrians.  The
Albanian laguage is that closest to the ancient Illyrian language
(encloyopedia britannica, 1999) .  The Albanains and their language is one of
the oldest European languages and one of the nine Indo-European languages. 

--

Can someone provide me with a list or link to TV and radio station locations within Kosovo?  What kind of telephone service is provided in Kosovo?  Is it modern or other?

I have seen the faces of these poor people and cannot belive what has happened to them. Now I want to take a more positive role in helping these people who are so deserving of our help. I would like to be a part of the media watch/ awareness group and was wondering if you could sent me any information to assist me in this.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thank

Happy  INDEPENDENCE  DAY  from  SERBIA ,ONE   KOSOVA  IN  PEACE
FOREVER!!!  SORRY  TO  HEAR  ABOUT  THE  KILLING  OF   TWO  ALBAIANS,
MAYBE  THE  BRITISH           SOLDIER  FEARED  HIS   LIFE  PROTECTING
SERBS, REVENGE  IS   A  DEAD  END  ROAD,  ONLY   PEACE  TALKS  WORK .  MY
STATE  OF  VIRGINIA  WAS  IN  SHAMS  IN  THE   SPRING  OF  1865  DURING
THE  AMERICAN  CIVIL  WAR,  THE  NORTH  BURNT  OUR   CROPS,  AND  THE
SOUTH  DID  THE  SAME ,  BUT  AFTER  ALL  WAS   DONE  WE  SLOWLY  MADE
PEACE  WITH  EACH  OTHER,  WE  HAD  TO  MAKE   PEACE  JUST  TO  REBUILD
OUR  LIVES,  EVEN  THOUGH  WE  STILL  HATED  EACH   OTHER. PEACE  IS
SLOW  PROCESS,   BUT  WORKS  IN  THE  LONG  RUN,   BUT  IT  HAS  TO
START  SOMEWHERE!!

THE  RUSSIANS  ARE  WELCOME  IN      KOSOVA  ONLY  IF  THEY  UNDERSTAND
THE  WORD  PEACE  KEEPERS!!  THEY  WILL  BE  STATIONED   ONLY  WHERE
NATO  SAID  THEY  WILL  BE!!  19  COUNTRYS  OF   NATO  ARE  RUNNING  THIS
SHOW  NOT  RUSSIA!!!  IF  RUSSIA  DON'T  LIKE  THE   K.L.A., I  SUGGEST
THEY  GO  HOME!!  THE  K.L.A.  IS  A  ARMY  THAT   FOLLOWS  ORDERS, NO
NEED  TO  PANIC!!!  PEACE  TO  ALL      RUSSAIN  PEACE  MAKERS.  BOBBY

From what  I have been hearing on CNN and reading on your site, I hate
to say it, but I do not think the fighting is over for good.  From what
I understand not only are there still Serb troops in Kosova, but the
Russians are trying to break their agreement with NATO, and FRY troops
are now massing on the borders of Montenegro.  Considering all this, I
do not think the KLA  should turn over all their weapons.  I have no way
of knowing what is really going on, but from here it doesn't sound too
good.

Stay Safe,

To any friend,

Asalamalaikum.

Hi. My name is Sonia. I am a Muslim living in America. I am college
student.
First, I am sorry to hear about what happened to you in Kosova. It is
very outrageous that Serbs made life destructive and cruel for you. I
hope Allah will punish the Serbs for what they did to you. For last three
months, I made efforts to send e-mails to President Clinton and the
Congress to demand for ground troops. I am glad that the NATO troops
protect the Kosovar Albanian refugees nowadays. I praise your efforts to
keep the world informed about unspeakable Serb atrocities in Kosova. You
bring an awareness to my attention. You make a big difference to the
world. I want you to know that you are not alone. I am on your side. I
know you suffer most from the atrocities of war. My thoughts are always
with you. I am glad that the Albanian refugees return to their homeland.
I would like to be friends with any Kosovar Albanian( Muslim ),
preferably college-educated male in late twenties who knows extensive
English. I would like to be there for you as a supportive friend. I would
like to keep in touch with you as friends. I would love to be pen pal
with you. We can share thoughts, stories, experiences or anything. I am
offering my encouragement for you to find courage to live in this world
and move on with it. I am willing to devote my time to new friendship
with him. I am available to chat with you over the Internet. I will be
honored if you consider me as your friend. I look forward to your reply
soon. Masalam.
                                                                  
Sincerely, Sonia

My name is Jamie, I have been in constant contact with various
leaders of the KLA, and have been to Tirana as well, but all the phone
numbers that I have for them are old numbers from England, Germany, and Tirana, but I dont have any current  contact numbers for them, could you please give me some kind of contact number for KLA leaders
in Prishtina?  I would greatly appreciate it, thank you.

As a student in public international law, I am writing a paper on the rights
of the Kosovo population. I have not been able to find the text of the
declaration of independence of Kosovo issued in 1991. This document is
important for my research. I would be very grateful if you could indicate me
how I could find it.

Sincerly yours

Some of your enemies are claiming that it just a
continuation of a civil war.  Since there  was no
Yugoslavia or Kosovo before 1918 I can't see where they
get their idea.  I wonder if you have someone there who
can bring me up to date on any conflicts involving the
Kosovo or the moslems.

If you can help,  I would be appreciative.

Daniel

Im glad, because the war its over, and we can see that Kosova free
again, but i know that Kosova has many problems yet, and i think,
only each one all of you will can change the way of Kosova.

THE SERBIAN NEWS SOURCES NOW BRAG OF WHAT NATO IS DOING TO KEEP THE
PEOPLE OF KOSOVA IN THEIR INFERIOR STATUS.

All "Trepca" plants liberated
July 04, 1999

Driven Serb from K.Mitrovica whose house was seized by Albanians

Kosovska Mitrovica, 3rd July (Tanjug) - KFOR French troops launched
energetic actions and drove ethnic Albanian extremists and terrorists
out of all "Trepca" plants which they had seized in the last week in the
territory of the municipality of Kosovska Mitrovica.

"Trepca" security workers are now protecting the zinc metallurgy plant,
the batteries factory, factory of processing equipment, flotation in the
1st tunnel, and the Stari Trg mine.

French troops regularly tour the plants, which employ over 5,000
workers. The terrorists stole all office furniture and smaller machines
from these plants, which are in the southern part of the town, but this
has not affected production.

All plants and facilities of "Trepca" will begin full production on
Monday, as there is a sufficient supply of raw materials. "Trepca"
workers being bused to work outside town will have a French troop
escort.

Report #2:

05.07.1999-b

                       RTP staff head back on the RTP building, KFOR does
not allow  Prishtina radio and television staff headed today to
the Press and media palace in the centre of the town to return in
their jobs, but  KFOR didn't allow them.

                   The staff gathered at around 9.00 in front of the
building, but they  were stopped by KFOR forces.

                   Martin Çuni, representative of a Coordination
Council, presented  the platform of talks of the council with the
representatives of the UN  Mission in Kosova and KFOR.

                   RTP staff asked to be allowed to be again on the air
with programs  in Albanian in the radio and television, from which
they were forced  out on July 5, 1990.

                   They also stressed that the Press and Media Palace as
well as the  transmitting frequencies, are properties of the
people of Kosova.

                   Prishtina radio and television has four primary TV
networks and 5  primary radio networks, registered from the
international  radiodefusion organizations, as well as secondary
networks for  broadcasting radio and TV programs.

                   According to the platform, the details for the
continuation of work of  Prishtina radio and television, will be prepared in
cooperation with   the representatives of the UN Mission in Kosova and
KFOR, based on the national structure of the population of
Kosova.

NATO also plans to make sure that Serbia keeps control of the banks, so
the ninety percent non-Serb population will be forced to keep its money
there

DON'T FORGET:

1. At Pristina's Grand Hotel, NATO also kept stolen jobs and management
in hands of tiny Serb minorty that has enjoyed its privileges for ten
years.

2. British NATO troops deliberately shot two armed KLA members in the
back.

3. French KFOR troops are aiding in Clinton and NATO's planned partition
which would give control of much of Mitrovice, including especially the
mines to the Serbs.

The only way to prevent this strategy is to drive Serbs out with the
same kind of violence they used on Kosovans.  Otherwise, NATO plans to
assure that they keep all their ill-gotten gains.

Boycott farm goods  of Kosova Serb farmers.

Never forget that Kosova Serbs were the backbone of Milosevic's
electoral support and his strongly urged suppression of muslims so that
they can keep all the jobs they stole when Milosevic ended autonomy and
took away all rights for non-Serbs.

Many of those who hold these jobs were invited in after muslims were
cleansed.  Others were promised the job if cleaning occurred.  Others
are descended from Serbs deliberately resettled in Kosova in the days since the brutal l912 invasion.

TODAY  ON  THE  NEWS  I  WATCHED  THE   KOSOVARS  BURY  THEIR  FAMILYS,
IT  WAS  SAD, VERY  SAD, I   REMEMBER   IN  APRIL   WHEN  REPORTS  OF

FAMILYS  ARE  IN  MY  PRAYERS.

I have just discovered your site and I am very grateful for all the
information and various links. I am very interested in finding out about any
Women's Organizations that may be offering aid to the women of Kosovo.
Please continue to provide the rest of the world with as much information as
you can.

Dear Media and organisational colleagues!

I'm writing you because ESIB - The National Unions of Students in
Europe - is organising a project for students in Prishtina. Initially the
project was intended to take place in Camp Radusa, Macedonia. Since
this camp is now empty the project will take place four days in Skopje
(17-20 july) and 3 days in Prishtina (21-23 july).

ESIB is therefore in search of Kosova student organisations or students
in Prishtina or Skopje. Because of the situation in Kosova over the last
three months ESIB has lost contact with all earlier student contacts. We
hope that you either through your media access or organisational links
will be able to spread information on the project to students from
Kosova.

Yours Sincerely

SORTIES  OVER   BELGRADE  AND  KOSOVA !  SOME MILITARY   BY  LAW  CAN NOT
WEAR  OTHER  COUNTRYS  MEDALS , I  THINK  THE  U.S.A.   CAN.

To whom it may concern,

I am a retired US Army SSG.  I fought in Vietnam.  My father fought Hitler.  
I am PROUD of what the US did for Kosovo.

President Clinton saw that another HITLER was on a rampage.  He called NATO
together.  He said, "Remember Hitler".  They did.

The USA lead the charge, but the member states of NATO had a good memory. 
Even Germany.  They brought us Hitler.  They would NOT allow another.  For
the first time in history, the Luftwaffe flew for peace in Europe.  How about
that?

I have written to Novi-Sad's radio station, the head of the Orthodox church
in America and a bunch of their money sites.  I admonished them about what
they did in Kosovo and have not had a single reply.

Do you think that they may have actually done these HORRIBLE crimes?  I do.

NATO did the RIGHT thing, at the RIGHT time for the Right reasons.

please write back,

Our church is sponsoring a Kosovo family that arrived last week, three
young adults and one infant.  They know no English, and we'd like to get
them into English classes soon.  Could you advise me on classes that
would be convenient to the Walnut Creek, California area?  This is in
the San Francisco Bay area, approximately 15 miles east of Oakland.

Thank you very much,
Susan Cyr

Our church is sponsoring an Kosovar refugee family. We are looking for Albanian/English translators. We are located in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago. Any leads you might forward to us would be greatly appreciated, including other websites which might be useful in our search. Thank you. Stephen Fossing.

We are hosting two Kosovo refugees at our home near Atlanta and were
wondering if there was an online resource written in Albanian or Macedonian
regarding the crisis in Kosovo. Thank you for your help.
