Kosovo: Can You Imagine?
From the author: Kosovo: Can You Imagine? is a documentary film by Canadian filmmaker Boris Malagurski, about the Serbs that live in Kosovo and the lack of human rights that they have today, in the 21st century.
Most of the Kosovo Serbs have been ethnically cleansed by the Albanians who make up the majority of Kosovo. Kosovo has been under UN administration since 1999 when NATO bombed Serbia for 78 days to halt a crackdown on ethnic Albanian separatism in its province of Kosovo. In the years following the war, thousands of Serbs were expelled from their homes, kidnapped and killed. Their houses, cultural and religious sites were burned and destroyed.
Kosovo for the Serbs is what Jerusalem is for the Jewish people. It is the cradle of their statehood, culture and religion. Most of the important Serbian Christian Orthodox monasteries are in Kosovo. Today, Serbs still have a deep spiritual and traditional connection to Kosovo, a land which is being cleansed of everything Serbian.
Most of the Kosovo Serbs are internally displaced, some of them live in small container camps, in ghettos, all this in the heart of Europe in the 21st century. We follow the stories of several Serbs who have fell victim to a nationalist and irredentist ideology that has a goal of creating a pure Albanian state of Kosova (Kosovo in Albanian). Serbs in Kosovo have no basic human rights. You will be shocked to learn which atrocities they have to face each day.
I couldn’t help but write something. May not be important but I feel I must. For many reasons, mostly since I am the daughter of a well known historian.
For decades and decades, Albanians, historically have been barbarically massacred in front of their homes by Serbs. Albanian daughters raped in front of their families with father and brother watching with knives on their jugular veins. Pregnant Albanian women their bellies cut open and many many more.... My heart aches writing this. Serbs have committed world’s most barbaric acts in human history. They will never have Kosovo, they will never have a country. Hell awaits them.
Hey Serbians, no one believes in your lies. So stop wasting your filthy breath and money on this movies. Whole world witnessed your killings starting from losing all wars you initiated started from Slovenia till the last one Kosovo. You are destined to lose, and you will always lose, God is always with the good people.
@visar kelmendi,
you mean imaginary state of Kosovo and metohija?
I`m feeling very sad about the propaganda and the level of propaganda agains the state of Kosova. Just a documentary that has nothing to do with liberal mind of producing a documentary they are trying to poison every sectors of media but I`m sorry. Yugoslavia dream are over the Republic of Kosova is a country that has been occupied with brutally and death but not anymore,
The Balkan champions
Great video,as a Croat who served in Kosovo in the 90's I have witnessed cruelty of the albanians on anyone who was other nationality.They hated Gypsies, Serbs,Jews,Egiptians and islamic minoreties equally.My grandfather was also military officer stationed on Kosovo after the WW2 and witnessed comunistic ban for Kosovo Serbs deported to concentration camps in Germany and Norway, some 100 000 of them, to return to their native home on Kosovo.Also he witnessed Albanian refugees some 300 000 in the period from 1945-50 from Albanian dictator Hoxa who came on Kosovo to live and where accepted and from Serbs and local Albanians.Later in the period from the 1958-1970 came the second wave of refugees, some 500 000 people.And they caused problems for the natives of Kosovo that later became a exploding national problem.I wil never be a truce there!
Kosovo is Albania and for hundreds and so many years serbs kill all Albnanians and u make a movie that serbs suffered,thats shit, its like making a movie about Hiter being the good guy and the Jews the bad guys
Are aware that during kosovo-Serbia war 50.000 females have been rapped ,and they have been rapped in front of their husbands ,fathers ... are you aware that people have been killed in front of their loved ones , my uncle who was somwhere near 19 was killed and tourtured in front of his father , they killed so many people that we can't even find their dead bodies .. they killed little innocent kids ... and after all the things they did they aren't even shamed .....
Please remove this video from this site! The whole story is one big lie!!
this is the biggest rubbish i have ever seen. LOL. not even worth commenting . Pointless after all the killings the Serbs have done in Slovenia, Croatia, Bosna and Kosova. RUBBISHHHHH.
This is another handy work of the Empire of Chaos (the USA) and its warmonger minions EU, they created more chaos, atrocities, racial genocides, hatred, bloodshed, destruction, misery, ... in the name of human rights and R2P, Kosovo, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, etc. were all having functioning societies, people were getting along and having normal lives despite their differences, now all those places are in hell, yet nobody remembers the culprits and perpetrators, the USA and EU, anymore, the victims are all busying blaming each other and pointing fingers at each other, what a sad scene.
Albanian tongue n soil is the oldest in Europe so nice try with the apparent notion that Kosovo is Serbians. If so? By some miracle how come you guys were always a minority than? Halthough this minority took all the e onomy and ruled us the point being is that you were ALWAYS nothing but a GUEST in my country. And that is all you'll be. I've nothing against the minority Serbians only if they are somewhat respectable and humane ! Not trying to cause further complications than there are.
And to answer your uneducated guess SASHA if you knew a little bit of history you would know that Slavs came in the picture / Balkan way after the ottoman had ruled Albanians for 500 years and then you theifs invaded it too but it was never yours! We are the palasgians/yllirian descendents we were here before Christ diverged into what is now left as roman n Greek dichotomy. So yeah the ottoman gave up and ended with the rise of GjERGJ KASTRIOTI aka skender beu who was taken to Turkey as a little boy had his parents murdered n once he became a great warrior of Turkey he was told he's Albanian which he then turned againsst them and stopped the ottoman from invading and assimilating almost the entire Europe.
ya ok!
don;t get things twisted!
Here's the truth:
1. your ancestors live at your home for generations
2. you willfully let me into your house
3. even though you supply everything I need to live happily; i help my self to all your belongings including food, money, lands, jobs and your family
4. while i am your raping you...i call all my friends and family to partake in your hospitality; they call theirs...about 4 million people as gang rape now
5. you then realize that what started as a kind gesture has been abused to the point you have nothing and neither does anyone else you know,
6. you complain and ask for I and all the guests to leave.
7. You complain to cops
8. you complain to government
9. everyone asks you me to leave,but I still don;t
10. they demand I leave or be imprisoned or executed, but I still don;t leave
11. people die and wars occur, but I still don't leave
12. afterwards, when I have the majority of a country and cry to UN that I am raping, plundering and murdering to deal the final death blow, I have the sickening nerve to blame you for the above
Who am I ?"
A greedy, selfish, hypocrytical, POS Albanian!
I read some Albanian comments witch are really silly! Let's point out some facts:
- 1st Serbian state was founded on Kosovo. The whole cultural history is on Kosovo. Than, at the certain point, Ottomans come into the picture. Serbs flee, Abanians are being settled because of their loyalty to the conqueror.
- Kosovo Albanins supported Hitler in it's aggresion on the Balkans. Hitler lost, as the Albanians resulting in many deaths.
- Albanians were pushing for idea of own state way back before any Milosevic was born. Student "uprises" in the 50's, 60's? Anyone? Calling for "Kosova state"! Oppresion of all Serbs? Calling for boicot of Serbian? Serbs were forced to learn a language of the minority because of political stability. Fact!
- Albanians had almost all priviliges of a nation but wanted more until Serbs said NO! Terror on police on local authorities began, with the result of raids into homes etc. A nonpopular, but legitimate way to supress violence when attacked with anti tank military weapons financied fron Albania and USA.
- Once more, Albanian chose for the wrong side, USA, and once more it will be noted as a wrong choice in historical perspective.
Albanians have already a state but wanted more, with all means possible. If this is a wat to gain respect than I doubt they learnd the lesson.
U.S. President Bill Clinton's special envoy to the Balkans, Robert Gelbard, condemned both the actions of the Serb government and of the KLA, and described the KLA as "without any questions, a terrorist group".[43][44][45] took a similar stance
The infamous Panda Bar incident, however, which was an attack on Serb teenagers at a cafe, that led to an immediate crackdown on the Albanian-populated southern quarters of Peć (Kapešnica and Zatra), during whichSerbian police killed two Kosovo Albanians[36] has been alleged to have been organized by the Serbian government. On 17 January 2014, the Serbian newspaper Kurir reported that a source close to the Serbian government stated that there exists concrete evidence that the crime was ordered by Radomir Markovic (head of State Security Service) and executed by the infamous Milorad Ulemek (Legija), so as to make Kosovo Liberation Army appear as a terrorist organisation.[37] Similar claims, although not accusing the government, were made by Aleksandar Vucic, who stated that there is no evidence that the murder was committed by Albanians, as previously believed
The Yugoslav authorities regarded the KLA as a terrorist group,[34] though many European governments did not. The Serbian government also reported that the KLA had killed and kidnapped no fewer than 3,276 civilians of various ethnic descriptions including some Albanians
The KLA engaged in tit-for-tat attacks against Serbian nationalists in Kosovo, reprisals against ethnic Albanians who "collaborated" with the Serbian government, and bombed police stations and cafes known to be frequented by Serb officials, killing innocent civilians in the process. Most of its activities were funded by drug running, though its ties to community groups and Albanian exiles gave it local popularity
The KLA was responsible for serious abuses… including abductions and murders of Serbs and ethnic Albanians considered collaborators with the state. Elements of the KLA are also responsible for post-conflict attacks on Serbs, Roma, and other non-Albanians, as well as ethnic Albanian political rivals... widespread and systematic burning and looting of homes belonging to Serbs, Roma, and other minorities and the destruction of Orthodox churches and monasteries... combined with harassment and intimidation designed to force people from their homes and communities... elements of the KLA are clearly responsible for many of these crimes
All these "propaganda" comments smack of the same author, so dont be fooled by any "consensus" from turkic terrorist vermin
As early as 1998, the U.S. State Department listed the KLA as a terrorist organization financing its operations with money from the international heroin trade and funds supplied from Islamic countries and individuals, including Osama bin Laden. This did not stop the United States from arming and training KLA members in Albania and in the summer of 1998 sending them back into Kosovo to assassinate Serbian mayors, ambush Serbian policemen and intimidate hesitant Kosovo Albanians. The aim was to destabilize Kosovo and overthrow Serbian strongman Slobodan Milosevic.
Bin Laden and radical Muslim groups have been deeply involved in the Balkans since the civil wars in Bosnia from 1992 to 1995. Despite a UN arms embargo and with the knowledge and support of the United States, arms, ammunition and thousands of Mujahideen fighters were smuggled into Bosnia to help the Muslims. Many remain in Bosnia today and are recognized as a serious threat to Western forces there. The Bosnian government is said to have presented bin Laden with a Bosnian passport in recognition of his contribution to their cause. He and his al-Qaeda network were also active in Kosovo, and KLA members trained in his camps in Afghanistan and Albania.
Emboldened by the knowledge it could achieve its political objectives by terror, the KLA moved into southern Serbia and initiated, under the eyes of 40,000 NATO troops, a campaign of terror against the Serbian population. Not until NATO permitted the new democratic government of Serbia to send the Serb army back into the area was the KLA routed and sent back across the border into Kosovo.
Macedonia, with its large Albanian minority, was the KLA's next target. In February, its forces moved against this small and newly independent democracy. The familiar pattern of murder, ambush and intimidation followed. Unlike Serbia, which still possessed a powerful and well-equipped army, Macedonia had little with which to defend itself against the well equipped and battle-hardened KLA fighters. The promises of assistance made by former U.S. president Bill Clinton in return for Macedonia's co-operation during the Yugoslav bombing were forgotten.
Nevertheless, when the fighting started, it appeared NATO and the European Union might help Macedonia resist the terrorist threat. In March, Lord Robertson, the Secretary-General of NATO, condemned the KLA terror campaign and described them as "murderous thugs." He supported the Macedonian government's refusal to negotiate with the terrorists. Obviously, Lord Robertson was not aware the United States had other ideas about which side to support in Macedonia.
The message was made clear in May, when U.S. diplomat Robert Fenwick, ostensibly the head of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, in Macedonia, met secretly in Prizren, Kosovo, with the leaders of the Albanian political parties and KLA representatives. Macedonian officials were not invited. It was clear the United States was backing the Albanian terrorist cause. This was confirmed a month later, when a force of 400 KLA fighters was surrounded in the town of Aracinovo near the capital, Skopje. As Macedonian security forces moved in, they were halted on NATO orders.
U.S. army buses from Camp Bondsteel in Kosovo arrived to remove all the heavily armed terrorists to a safer area of Macedonia. German reporters later revealed that 17 U.S. military advisors were accompanying the KLA terrorists in Aracinovo.
In August, fearing the Macedonian forces might be able to defeat the KLA, U.S. Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice flew to Kiev and ordered the Ukrainian government to stop sending further military equipment to Macedonia. Since Ukraine was the only country supplying Macedonia with military assistance, the Macedonians realized continued resistance against the KLA terrorists, the EU and NATO was futile. Macedonia was forced to concede defeat and obliged to accept all the terrorist demands. When the peace treaty was signed, Lord Robertson proclaimed, "This day marks the entry of Macedonia into modern, mainstream Europe ... a very proud day for their country."
These words come too late for the Serbs, Gypsies, Jews, Turks and other non-Albanians who have been driven from their ancestral homes in Kosovo by the terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army. It is too late as well for Macedonia, which has been forced by the United States, the European Union and NATO to yield to all the demands of the Albanian terrorists in that country.
How about u talk about the albsnian rights from 1900-2000, what the serbs did to the albanians for over 100years. Get your facts straight before u make a film.
Serbs are of the devil!
All Serbs in Serbia participated in the massacre of Bosniaks.
All Serbs abroad are hardened criminals.
Serbs started 3 wars in less than 100 years.
well this is propaganda at it's finest, it fits best to character of serbian people and their myth of innocence. they started wars in croatia, killed thousands in Srebrenica in front of all world, did macabre things in Kosovo, in Recak, Krush, Qyshk, I dare you to google for it that will be your true "Can you imagine" moment.
Kosovo was majority of albanians before the war, because if you read history serbs came from beyond the Carpates, and inavaded a part territory from Albania, now known as Kosovo, so their so called heart must be somewhere beyond those mountains, and no parallels can be drawn with Jerusalem, none whatsoever. Clearly this is a serbian goverment paid documentary, serbs in kosovo are still the same, there is proof in northern part of Mitrovica, where no albanian can live their life without worrying that one of their neighbours would through a grenade in their backyard. They dont pay taxes, electricity, water or anything else, on other hand they get social support and wages from republic of Kosovo.Tell me in which other country this happens.
I would like to ask all of you that don't agree with movie, where Albania as a country was first time got name and country, did you missed history class?
As all know Serbia is one of the oldest, Kosovo is heart of Serbia.People not knowing history first time heard about Kosovo 1389, and people who know history the first time name Albania as country 1878, so l said enough, smart will know, s*upid will live to learn one day!
Skip this documentary, it is complete propaganda and utter bulls*it. The Serbs started three wars in a single decade, do you see the pattern here? They got neck-deep in trouble and took a dump on their reputation and now they want to lower us to their level in order to compensate. The KLA fought a clean war. I know because members of my family were in it. They never raised a hand against Serbian civilians while the other side was murdering and raping whole villages. I will not allow the honor of my family and people to be ridiculed like this. Skip this monstrosity.
