No to NATO State in Serbia

U.S.-led NATO To Give Up Creation of Satellite State on Serbian Soil
“There are always two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason,” J. P. Morgan, multimillionaire Robber Baron.
Serbian Minister for Kosovo-Metohija Slobodan Samardzic today called upon the U.S. to give up the project of creating a NATO state in the form of an independent Kosovo-Metohija, as new negotiations on the future status of the province are expected to begin.
In a statement to the news agency Beta, Samardzic said that now when new negotiations are to begin it is of key importance that NATO and the US abandon the project of creating a satellite state in Kosovo-Metohija.
The Minister stressed that this project has nothing to do with the economic recovery of Kosovo-Metohija and reconciliation of Serbs and ethnic Albanians, and least of all with the European future of this part of Europe.
According to Samardzic, such a state would serve only the geopolitical and strategic military goals of the US, as well as the purposes of the local mafia groups in Kosovo-Metohija, and would make it impossible for people in the province to have a peaceful and prosperous future.
Due to these reasons, Serbia rejected the plan presented by Martti Ahtisaari, which in its Annex XI proposes establishing permanent NATO presence in Kosovo-Metohija, stressed Samardzic.
He recalled that during the previous eight years the international community had the opportunity to verify the real goal of NATO military action against Serbia, which is the creation of a NATO state through amputation of Kosovo-Metohija province.
Loncar: NATO Attacked Serbia and Invaded Kosovo Province to Carve Up State for Itself
Serbian Education Minister Zoran Loncar said on Tuesday that the entire international community knows fully well Serbia will never accept the possibility of NATO creating its quasi-state — a military colony — on Serbian territory.
“The issue of the Albanian minority in Kosovo-Metohija served as a cover-up for NATO trying to make its first military puppet state,” Loncar told Tanjug.
“NATO first bombed Serbia, then brought its troops to Kosovo province and now, through the failed Ahtisaari plan it is attempting to create the first military state on Serbian territory,” Loncar added.
According to him and to other political analysts, Annex XI of the Ahtisaari plan “directly orders that the NATO Alliance must have unlimited authority in the severed Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija.”

This throws also a new light on Kosovo's "Guantánamo" -- camp Bondsteel, the huge US 'forward engagement' base.

They (the US), have come to stay just as did the German troops during WWII and there is little hope of weeding them out peacefully. Leaving them there would be less wise than resorting to hostilities.

For their part, the Serbs under Slobo were hoodwinked into thinking that releasing their American captives to the Rev. Jesse Jackson. Had this capture occurred in Arab lands, the good reverend would have been handed three boxes.
Look at the difference in how Serbs and other minorities in Kosovo are treated vs. the Islamic insurgents therein (as well as the sea change in the Administration's fortunes since '03) and learn a lesson: Americans coming home in body bags gets attention like nothing else.
