Tetovo, Macedonia, March 20 2001: Apocalypse Now
|
The battles at Tetovo reached its maximum today. The Macedonian forces responded with everything that they had. The hills were burning, and the bullets were flying all around like crazy. I hope that my name is not on one of them. (joke). I was ditched today by the press crew for the ride to Tetovo, but I managed to get there around noon. At first it seemed like a boring day with nothing “good to see”, so all of the press had left. At about 4 PM, the battles reached its maximum. Cannons, tanks, grenades and all the lead that could fly, was sent to the hills by the Macedonian forces. “Apocalypse Now” for on and a half hour long. Total madness.

It is forbidden to use the materials from this site in ways that promote hatred, racism, or ethnic hostilities, especially in ways that implicate, hint, or openly blame all Albanians for the consequences of the murderous acts committed by the terrorist KLA/UCK. We understand that only small percent of Macedonian Albanians support KLA in its self-destructing quest for the old fascist construct, Great Albania, and even fewer do so voluntarily. Most of Albanians involved in the hostilities are pushed into them by way of forced mobilization or are misguided by continuos brainwashing. Macedonia has always been a multiethnic entity, where different cultures and religions lived side by side. This diversity is the foundation of its beauty and strength. Please help the Police and the Army of Republic of Macedonia protect its diversity, democratic values, and the lives of innocent people threatened by the KLA terrorists by continuing the Macedonian tradition of tolerance. Please do not vent your frustration, anger, and pain on your neighbors just because they speak the same language as the KLA criminals. Ordinary citizens of Macedonia belonging to all its ethnic groups (Macedonians, Albanians, Vlachs, Turks, Rroma, Serbs, Bosnians, and others) all share the same problems, same joys, just like they share the same sun and stomp the same ground. They have been living and working together for ages, and will continue to do so as soon as the supporters of KLA and all who promote violence are moved from the scene and put into jail, where they belong.
