1) Kosovar is a term with associations; just as for example Southern Woman
once meant southern WHITE woman, Kosovar is a word promoted exclusively by
the racist/secessionist movement in Kosovo. Based on the nonsense word,
KosovA (with an 'a') which exists in secessionist usage, but has no actual
meaning, it attempts to promote a mythical Kosovo nationality, which does not
exist in the real world, in which Kosovo is simply the original part of
Serbia - the word means something in Serbian, for which see
http://www.emperors-clothes.com/articles/JP%20maher/InAname.html

2) Thus the idea of KOSOVAR as an INCLUSIVE term is absurd, and betrays
(sorry) the utter ignorance of the user. Why do people who know nothing
about this subject insist on speaking as if they do?

3) The KLA is NOT the exclusive possessor of fascism in Kosovo, any more than
the KKK was and is in the US - rather, ita creation of first German and then
US policy to take advantage of the widespread fascist base that exists in
Kosovo, among a section o local ethnic Albanians and "illegals" from Albania
(a huge number of people) who loathe all other ethnic groups and, frankly,
would like to kill them. This was a huge problem for the partisans in
W.W.II, and remains a huge problem today.

Really, you must read something. If I may be so crude, take the wool from
over your eyes. Go to http://emperors-clothes.com. What's the point in
talking about this? First read for awhile; the mist will rise. See? You make
me mix my metaphors. Read, think, and then talk, in that order, that's my
suggestion.
