Independent Kosovo: A threshold of never ending conflict

POLITICS. .

Division of a nation is always a nightmare for its people. Every now and then, it's ended in a bitter rivalry that centuries even failed to bridge. The same dark clouds are hovering on Serbia. West supported Kosovo independence - intended to marginalize Russia - has dammed scenario in Serbia. The western argument for Kosovo independence is the Albanian majority and we wonder how west can interfere in our sovereign nation to decide who should live with us and who shouldn't.

The logic of Kosovo's emancipation from Serbia on the bases of Albanian majority in the region comes from an insane mind. I really don't make it out how a province dominated by a majority herd can crave for a separate nation and west has more that one reason to support Albanians. If sticking to your own community and speaking only your birth language are the potential reasons for getting independence, then it's not difficult to imagine the fate of multi ethnic India.

Furthermore, I ask if this demand can be justified, then how about the Albanians in Macedonia and Greece, Serbs in Croatia, Kurds in Turkey, Iraq, and Iran. Or US along with its allies that hardly bothers about anything but its interests, will it cater the same to the Mormons who are in majority in Utah and Mexican American in Texas or Basques in France for that matter. When the world will realize that those who pretend to advocate human rights are thugs (NATO and US) with guns stoking fire and baking something of their liking all the times?

If Kosovo will get freedom, it'll ultimately be the part of Albania and those who want to be in Albania why don't they go and settle down there. Independence of Kosovo, as many argue, will end the crises, but rather it'll work as a powder keg to unsettle the Balkans. There are firm possibilities that Serbs will wage a war to take their land from Kosovo Albanians. With this, a never-ending rift and fuss will commence that threatens to engulf the whole region and perhaps won't settle in10 or 100 years.

Ending this tragedy In Kosovo is a moral imperative for all and screwing a nation for some own wicked interests can never ever be justified. Violence begets violence, and yes, violence erupted in Kosovo and other parts of Serbia can never be justified. However, NATO even did nothing different and its strikes have killed more than the conflict devoured. Farmers, city dwellers, factory workers, reporters, diplomats, women in labor, people in busses and trains, the elderly and children were all equal for the bombs and bullets fired by NATO forces. Therefore, NATO and US have lost the moral tint to propagate Kosovo independence for the so called peace.

Serbia will never bargain Kosovo - the cradle of its civilization - with the EU membership. US, as usual, is hardly concerned with or moved by the violence, sided with the Albanians and didn't propose a settlement. Hence, Serbs don't expect any positive solution with US mediation. Any solution can be far sighted for the time being but with the faux talks promoted by allies, it's just impossible. Therefore, we just don't want intervention or any proposal form US or NATO either.

Even if the Kosovo independence is inevitable, which I fear is, it's totally and solely Serbian issue and we want to settle it within UN and Russian agreed framework while making it sure that the rights of approximately 115,000 of Kosovo Serbs will be protected. We hope that we'll make the necessary, though tough, choices and come out with a solution that will not only suit to Serbia, but for the region as a whole.
