NATO called in as Kosovo Serbs attack border posts JARINJE, Kosovo, Feb 19 (Reuters): Kosovo police called for help from NATO peacekeepers on Tuesday after Serbs opposed to Kosovo's newly declared independence burned down one border crossing and attacked another. Kosovo police took shelter in a tunnel at a border post near Zubin Potok in Kosovo's Serb-dominated north as more than 1,000 protesters tried to tear it down. “We asked NATO to send a helicopter to evacuate our officers,” a police source told Reuters in Pristina. Other reports said groups of “angry” Serbs set fire Tuesday to two border crossings linking the north of newly independent Kosovo with southern Serbia. (Posted @ 17:05 PST) www.dawn.com

It seems another conflict is in It's accruement. I believe Russia will financially support them as It has in the past.
How does an independent Kosovo possibly wekaen Russia or act as a base against Russia? Kosovo is far, far, far away from Russia and the USA has anti-Russian allies much closer to the Russian border in Poland and the Baltic states that joined NATO.
Kosovo's statehood threatens Russia because it sets another precedent for regions to declare their independence.
But I have never seen a more cynical and misanthropical group of people. Muslims getting autonomy in Europe is shot down before it has a chance by you guys. Seriously, you folks need prozac, a does of optimism or something. Is this lack of passion for your brothers in Kosovo due to the prevailing secularism of Muslims in that country?

Secularism? There's a lot of Wahabi influence there sponsored by the great American ally Saudi Arabia, just like in Bosnia. The only way for to be peace in the newly independent Kosovo is to displace the Serbian population already there.

Seminole believes since Its part of Europe It is more secular. Samja karo yaar.
Yes, wahabism is having an influence in Kosovo, but a large portion of their population remains secular. (Read up on it Ali_R before making ignorant statements)
But why do the Serbs have to be displaced for peace to happen?
Yes, but for how long? Serbian resistance to this will push the Kosovars to further radicalism. Al-Qaeda type of people will rush to defend their Kosovar brothers.
I don’t think the Serbs are too happy about this. There will be Serbian attacks on Kosovars.
Kosovo's statehood threatens Russia because it sets another precedent for regions to declare their independence.
That's a weak argument. There's been a long precedent of regions declaring independence, including Eritrea from Ethiopia, Slovenia from Yugoslavia, Bangladesh from Pakistan, Ireland from the UK, Montenegro from Serbia etc, East Timor from Indonesia, etc.
The difference in Kosovo is that the region declaring independence was under the control of international forces. None of Russia's seperatist regions are under internation control, by contrast; the Russian Army has firm control.

there is very little wahhabism in the balkans. stop spreading lies.
