How To Destroy America
"Government is not a solution to our problem[s],
government is the problem." -- Ronald Reagan


It's Time to Worry about Global COOLING

"...an utterly corrupt new religion called environmentalism..."
If the history of this planet's climate over millions of years is any guide, we are about to enter a new ice age.

CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper indicated in a 1993 interview with the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he wants to see the United States become a Muslim country.
in response to your comments: Illegal Aliens Use of Terrorism to Get a Seat in the United Nations
By Mary Mostert (07/17/05)

Below is my response to your request for me to “check my facts” about Albanian occupation of Kosovo re:
My article in American Daily entitled: Illegal Aliens Use of Terrorism to Get a Seat in the United Nations

This is specifically in response to the the following comments:

“The kosovars never have gone out of kosova for any "terrorist act"!

“You begin your statistics from 1929 but you don't now how come that in this year in Kosova was more serbians than albanian. Do you know how many albanians was send in Albania and Turkey after they became the Kosova gift from Russia and other europian forces! In twenty years there was more then half of ethnic Albanian sended out from Kosova!”

“You never heared what the serbians did with albanians in centurys? You never heared how many albanian churchs and mosques they burned? Did you never writted about Kroatian Mostar or Bosnian Srebenica?” … Than we are in Kosova today and after centuries of Serbian occupation we have what is ours!

The topic here is the terrorist acts committed by Albanians IN Kosovo . Just last year 25 Serbian Orthodox Christian Churches were blown up in Kosovo. At least five of them were 500-600 years old. It is exactly that kind of behavior, plus the kidnapping and killing of Serbs in Kosovo that account for the huge illegal movement in recent years for Albanians to totally occupy Kosovo, disconnecting it from Serbia. If you want to go back further into Kosovo demographic history to see what was going on prior to 1929, we can do that. Let’s talk facts – not fiction. You surely know that during the 500 years the area was ruled by the Turkish empire, the Turks conducted tax censuses to COUNT people. In 1455 in a tax census 80% of present day Kosovo and Metohija showed a grand total of 14,087 households (headed by 480 widows and 13,607 adult males. The ethnicity of those 14,087 house holds showed:

12,985 Serbian dwellings present in ALL 480 villages and towns

75 Vlach dwellings in 34 villages

46 Albanian dwellings in 23 villages

17 Bulgarian dwellings in 10 villages

5 Greek dwellings in Lausa and Vucitrn

1 Jewish dwelling in Vucitrn

1 Croat dwelling.
This indicates that out of the total number of 13,130 households in Kosovo in 1455, a tiny fraction, 0.35percent, were Albanian. This does not indicate Albanian ownership of Kosovo.
By the 19th century three different reports showed the Albanian presence in Kosovo was growing, but still the minority:

A study in 1838 by an Austrian physician, Dr. Joseph Müller found Metohija to be mostly Slavic (Serbian) in character. 10 Müller gives data for the three counties (Bezirke) of Prizren, Pec and Djakovica which roughly covered Metohija, the portion adjacent to Albania and most affected by Albanian settlers. Out of 195,000 inhabitants in Metohija, Müller found:

* 73,572 Orthodox Serbs 38%
* 5,120 Catholic Albanians 3%
* 2,308 other non-Muslims (Vlachs etc.)
* 114,000 Muslims (58%), of which:
o c. 38,000 are Serbs (19%)
o c. 76,000 are Albanians (39%)

Müller's observations on towns:

* Peć: 11.050 Serbs, 500 Albanians
* Prizren: 16,800 Serbs, 6150 Albanians
* Đakovica: majority of Albanians, surrounding villages Serbian

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_history_of_Kosovo#Ottoman_Rule)
By 1948, following World War II during which between 1.5 to 1.7 MILLION Serbs were slaughtered (according to the Holocaust Museum) by Croatians, Bosnian Muslims and Albanians, not surprisingly the percentage of the population of Serbs had taken a dramatic drop. Since 1970, we see from the chart below a clear pattern: A sharp INCREASE in Albanians and a corresponding sharp DECREASE in Serbs in Kosovo. This chart, created under the auspices of UNMIK is probably the best indicator of the ethnic cleansing of Serbs.

Figure 5: Ethnic distribution 1950- 2000



Source: Annual statistics of SPA of Kosovo , 1988, Statistical federation Institute Agricultural statistics in Kosovo

In 1929 sixty-one percent of the population of Kosovo was Serbian. By 1948 the Population of Kosovo was 729,000 people – with 68% of them being Albanian, 24 Serb and 8% others. By 1961, the actual census population was 964,000. After all the mistreatment you claim the Albanians in Kosovo experienced from Milosevic and the Serbs, from 1961 to 2001, according to UNMIK the population of Kosovo was 2,400,000 and 88% of those people are Albanian.

1961

964,000


Actual Census (655,520 Albanian, 231,360 Serbs )

1981

1,584,000


Actual Census (1,219,680 Albanians) 205,910 Serbs

1991

1,956,000


Actual Census (1,603,920 – Albanians) 160,920Serbs

2001

2,400,000

OSCE Estimates (2,112,000-Albanians) 144,000 Serbs

According to the Statistical Office of Kosovo). The total population estimate in 2003 was 1 900 000 with the following representation of ethnic entities: 4

· 88% Albanians (1,733,600)

· 7% Serbs (137,900)

· 3% Muslim Slavs (59,100)

· 2% Roma (39,400)

· 1% Turks (19,700)

Note that just in the past 10 years when, supposedly, 100,000 Albanians in Kosovo were killed by those nasty Serbs, the Albanian population of Kosovo some how shot up from 1.6 million to 2.1 million while actual NUMBERS of Serbs sharply dropped. So, perhaps you can explain exactly how the Albanian population in Kosovo went UP a half million people while the Serb population went DOWN if those 160,000 Serbs were slaughtering and successfully hiding the bodies of those 100,000 Albanians they supposedly killed? I’m not sure, if I were an Albanian, I would want the world to know that 160,000 Serbs COULD kill 100,000 Albanians – especially when the Albanian population was reported to be 1,603,920. What were the 1,503,920 Albanians in Kosovo doing while the160,000 Serbs were killing 100,000 of their friends and relatives and disposing of their bodies – which you people keep telling the Serbs somehow managed to accomplish?

These are the figures I want explanations for – not more absurd stories that make no sense at all. Explain the statistics. As John Adams said “Facts are stubborn things.” These facts are easily verified. Explain them.

"Mexico, Canada partnership underway with no authorization from Congress"

The United States Is Being Overthrown By Our Politicians - "A silent but all-reaching coup is taking place within the United States. This coup is not being directed by bomb-laden Muslim terrorists, nor will it ever be covered by the mainstream media. The seditious act is being carried out by our very own elected officials, with President Bush leading the insurrection."
"The FDA has conveniently used the excuse of looking out for consumer safety to increase their perverse regulatory power, undermine free speech, disrupt commerce, and generally get in the way of helping people improve their health. The "half-truth" of the safety issue is used as a ploy to reduce the rights of Americans, one freedom at a time. Once again, the FDA is seeking more police power to intimidate supplement companies. This is one step in an overall FDA master plan to eliminate therapeutic nutritional supplements from the free market. Those who lose are the American public." The FDA - A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
