THE THREE ACTS OF KOSOVE TRAGEDY

(Recently, a book promoted in Paris, Ibrahim Rugova, The Kosova Affair ((Allain, Marie Francoise and Galmiche, Xavier, Fayard, Paris, ?date)) contained an introduction worthy of mention by Ismail Kadare on the history of the Kosova area of former Yugoslavia. I have "freely translated" this introduction, attempting to stick to the author's
purpose, as follows:)


We've been waiting a long time for a book on Kosova. Kosova is mentioned more often these days, but, in contrast with place names such as Bosnia, Sarajevo, and other of the Balkan war zones, the word "Kosova" is uttered in hushed tones; it is almost whispered. This brings to mind an ancient custom. Ancients people whispered certain words, especially those they considered to be associated with evil spirits. It is in this same manner that Kosova is spoken of today in the European chancelleries, as if this one word could awaken some mysterious force accompanied by orror and devastation.
For a while, politicians have openly said such things as "Let's be careful with Kosova! Let's not ignite the Albanian, in order to prevent the Serbs from committing yet another massacre." In other words, the message being sent to the world is "Let's close one eye to what's happening so that Kosova won't be clearly noticed. Let's stuff our ears so that cries might not be heard. Otherwise, the tragedy might hurt our eyes and disturb our dreams."

Meanwhile, the tragedy continues. One should consider the hell within which two million Albanians must live. To blind oneself to this truth, to stifle the conscience by failing to act to prevent evil, is the same as putting a victim in a beast's cage and feeling content with the fact that the cage is locked so that the beast cannot get out. What then bout the
victim? The evil that has fallen over Kosova is immense; it has continental proportions. The two million Albanians currently living in Kosova cannot endure this evil any longer.

Kosova is a large territory within which crimes have been isolated. There, time has virtually stayed still since World War II. Massacres, states of emergency, tortures, closure of all media institutions in the Albanian language - All these
are what characterize post WW II Kosova. All this may seem incredible, even extreme hype, but one should go in person to Kosova to grasp its painful present-day reality. 800,000 Albanians have been interrogated in a three year time span, or "only" 584,373 according to official Serbian police data. The true figure lies somewhere in between
.

To give one good example of how things are, [the Serb commander of troops committing the worst of the atrocities against non-Serbs in the recent Bosnian conflict who goes by the code name of] Arkan (Zjelko Rjazjatovic), a man wanted by all European police, is an official representative (Deputy) of Kosova. He roams free and secure in Kosova.
He sometimes even wants to "chat" with the local Albanians. A saying of his to Albanians is "Why are you standing still? Show me your age old' bravery!" then proudly displays his revolver. This is the reality that is Kosova. A lot of people when confronted with such a cold truth ask themselves "Is it possible that such a thing is happening in twentieth century Europe?" The answer, unfortunately, is that anything is possible when you give a green light to evil.
And evil has long had a green light in the Balkans.

The tragedy of Kosova is a play in several acts. Act I begins when this part of ethnic Albania was given to the newly created Yugoslav state, to this artificial creation which would later become the source of the Balkan's tears. Serbia at the time had many friends, among them the Russian bear while Albania stood alone. The only supporter of Albania was the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which collapsed immediately after World War I. The good will of the U.S. president Woodrow Wilson, was not enough to stop anti-Albanian movements. So this ancient Balkan country, one of the oldest in Europe, was chopped into two pieces. Kosova and other Albanian lands, comprising more than half of the area of the whole country, remained on the other side of a Yugoslav border from its other half.

In the two thousand years of its existence, Kosova had been a vital part of Albania excepting the period of the 12th through 13th centuries during which it was invaded and occupied by southern slavs. Again, in 1918, these southern slavs, the Serbs, were the victors. They wanted a reward for the shooting of the Archduke Ferdinand in Sarajevo. They got a large reward, Kosova, and the other Albanian inhabited lands in Montenegro and Macedonia. No one took into account the eighteen centuries of Kosova's life as an integral part of Albania. Only the two past centuries of slavic rule seemed to count . One key important fact is that no one bothered to ask the Albanians of Kosova what they wanted.
For the cynical politicians, it was of no importance who or which peoples were inhabiting the land. To them, the Albanians of Kosova had the same value as cattle, maybe less.

During the second World War, the Italians, and after them the Germans,partly for their own interest but also because of a traditional German conceptualization of the Balkans, corrected the istake created by the Great Powers by reuniting Kosova with Albania. This added five years to the previous eighteen Albanian centuries. But, any decent act committed by Nazis could never be considered anything but suspect. This promotion of a unified Albaniaby the Nazis became a new anti-Albania argument. Nobody dared say that despite who the Nazis were and despite the horrors they
had committed, that what they had done concerning the Kosova controversy was CORRECT, and the victors wrong.

There is a sort of mentality, somewhat "socialist-realist", which today prevents us from judging the results of World War II honestly and objectively, especially the terrible price that parts of Europe payed to win the war. Half of Europe fell under the chains of communism. Fates and nations were overthrown, millions executed, and values destroyed.
Allthis happened because a small part of the victor's camp was the beast, Russian communism. The fruits of this strange combination were soon to be seen.

One of the sourest of the first fruits was the communist state of Yugoslavia, cruel and hypocritical. This was the supposed state for "dissidents", the "liberal" state, the state of festivals and fairs, the capitol of the third world, the
place of peace talks, of art, of cinematography. The West considered it an ally, the East an enemy. But now the naked truth can be seen: YUGOSLAVIA WAS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL PROBE LAUNCHED BY THE EAST AGAINST THE WEST. It is no coincidence that communism began with the northeastern slavs and ends with the southern Slavs, the Serbs.

Let's return to 1945 when this communist state was being born. Its foundations have been sprayed and cemented with the blood of tens of thousands of Albanians.All the new communist states were founded upon blood, but it was their own blood that was spilled. In the case of Yugoslavia, something unique happened: They spilled the blood of other
nations. The first action that the former Yugoslav state took was the declaration of a state of emergency in Kosova.
Tens of thousands of Albanians, branded as nationalists only because they opposed the unification of Kosova with Serbia, were instantly proclaimed pro-German, because this concept suited the propagandistic aims of the Serbs, and
were then massacred in a barbaric manner.

In general, the communists, be they Russians or Serbs, have utilized the idea of being "pro Nazi" during World War II against a variety of nations for territorial gain, for example: The Tartars, the Albanians of Kosova, Croatians, Balts, and etc. Such an accusation should not be charged against these nations who in order to escape slavic oppression trusted German propaganda and visualized Germany as a hope of escape from centuries long oppression.

Obviously, these nations were mistaken in this idea but the speculations and the revenge that followed became the first of the colossal crimes of the victors. The Kosovar Albanians were punished the most severely. About the mass graves, each with the hundreds to thousands of Albanian corpses, History has been silent. There remained only one accusation with which the Kosovar Albanians could not be charged - that of reunification with Albania. They could not be
charged with such an accusation as long as the communist state of Albania, instead of attempting to stop the massacre, took part in it
. The cynical phrase "A communist has no home country" followed by twice as cynical an aphorism, "The true homeland of the communists is the Soviet Union", was used as a justification for unpardonable acts. This comprises the Second Act of the Kosova tragedy.


Finding itself closed between two conflagrations, one the Albanian communists, the other the Serb communists, Kosova capitulated. The world cavalierly accepted the sacrifice. The reasons are easy to understand:

They didn't want to stop flirting with the immoral Yugoslav state. They didn't want to jeopardize a shaky relationship with the USSR. There may be other reasons of which we are unaware, but communist Yugoslavia liked the taste of Albanian blood, as the Yugoslav kingdom had liked it before. It was foreign blood, non-Slavs, and thus did not disturb their consciences.
On the contrary, it gave pleasure such that medals and honors were given to those who tasted of it. A
Serbianacademician", Vasa Cubrilovic, author of a criminal study in 1939 on how to exterminate the Albanians through a massive genocidal program, was not only not criticized, but elected, first as a Member of the Russian Science Academy and the Chair of the Serbian National Academy.
