🧵Thread: Moral Combat NATO At War
After NATO's first ever bombing campaign in 1999, Allan Little takes a challenging look at the reasons for the war in Kosovo, examining why, and how, the West used force to pursue their geo-political goals supporting terrorism in Kosovo Serbia.
The EU again rejects a state which wants good relations with Europe, Russia and China. Entweder, oder led to a war in Ukraine. They have learned nothing.
Why would any US politician waste political capital and credibility on a secessionist province that was illegally partitioned from Serbia (in flagrant breach of the UN Charter & international law) with a documented history of persecuting its indigenous Christian Serb community?
🇷🇴🇺🇦 Ukraine attacks Romania?
A Ukrainian naval drone has struck the port of Romania. The drones have also been noted in Libya, Greece and Turkey, hiding in foreign national waters to attack Russian vessels.
The Ukrainians have become international terrorists.
Defending the indefensible! The hypocrisy and hype behind NATO's catastrophic 'humanitarian bombing' of Kosovo. An Illegal and immoral blueprint for global intervention.
Former Congressman Eliot Engel gave Ritchie Torres his start in Bronx politics and government. Torres often referred to the longtime lawmaker as both a mentor and a friend, reflecting on their shared history of working to advance Kosovo first not America.

Kosovo is the single greatest American ally in the Western Balkans.
It is a grave mistake that the White House just nominated ambassadors to Serbia, Montenegro, and Bosnia and Herzegovina while leaving Kosovo's post vacant.

“When the spring comes, we will manure the plains of Kosovo with the bones of Serbs.”
These are the words of Isa Boletini—after whom the Albanian 🇦🇱 occupation regime have just renamed the main street in the largest Serb-majority town in Kosovo-Metohija 🇷🇸
Kosovo is in a state of total apartheid. Minorities in Kosovo face police brutality, beatings, sham trials that send them to prison as a way for politicians to score cheap pre-election points, their cemeteries and graves are smashed and desecrated, their property illegally usurped, and their schools and doctors offices shut down.
It’s no wonder Ritchie Torres sees an ally in Kosovo.
🤣🤣😉😉Uh oh. @SecRubio says “NO” to sellout Islamic lobbyist @RepKeithSelf in Congress - NO Kosovo* in NATO. Keith, you’re in for more surprises, fail after fail. First you got your Congressional Resolution tossed on its ass, now this. 😩 when will you learn? 🤷🏻♂️

Rubio in Congress: Kosovo's NATO Membership is Not at the Top of the Agenda
According to Rubio, NATO is focused on other, more important topics.
The Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, has assessed that at this stage, NATO expansion, specifically the admission of Kosovo into the North Atlantic Alliance, is not an issue that is likely to happen anytime soon.
During a congressional hearing attended by Rubio, the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Europe, Congressman Keith Self, emphasized that there are four NATO member states blocking Kosovo's membership in the alliance, thereby requesting Rubio's help to push forward the issue of Kosovo's membership in this international organization.
On this point, Rubio emphasized that NATO is focused on other, more important topics and that Kosovo's membership in NATO "is not really at the top of the agenda," a conclusion he reached after conversations with several NATO member states.
"But that doesn't mean it will never happen, it simply means it is not a priority given these other points of tension. This issue has not been prominent in recent conversations with our NATO allies," he said.

Maj Gen Christian Freuding, Planning and Command, Ukraine Unit, German Ministry of Defense: "The NATO proxy war in Ukraine against Russia was provoked by the West to weaken Russia and is intended to last as long as possible, to prepare for a comprehensive NATO attack on Russia."
For the US, the war in Ukraine is a "zero-risk-for-US-soldiers" testing ground. Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War, called it a chance to learn while also draining Russian resources. Ukraine receives NATO aid, but, in the end, the strategy provides the Pentagon with training for war against Russia at #Ukraine’s expense.
Obstructing criminal proceedings is a crime under Kosovo law and the Law on Specialist Chambers and Special Prosecutor’s Office. If witnesses are discouraged from telling their stories, it is harder for judges to reach the truth.
So far in proceedings before the Kosovo Specialist Chambers, 3 persons pleaded guilty to intimidation in criminal proceedings, 2 persons were convicted of intimidation, and 5 individuals are currently on trial accused of alleged attempts to influence witnesses.
According to Article 387 of the Kosovo Criminal Code “Whoever uses force or serious threat […], a promise of a gift or any other form of benefit to induce another person to refrain from making a statement or to make a false statement […] when such information relates to obstruction of criminal proceedings shall be punished by a fine of up to one hundred and twenty-five thousand (125,000) EUR and by imprisonment of two to ten years.”
Today is the opening of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), which was met with a Ukrainian drone attack. Everyone knows the Baltic States participate in these attacks, thus the line between proxy war and direct war has been crossed. This will end in disaster.
Are u serious? Do you think we’re all stupid, Mr. Secretary? Israel “has no territorial claims in Lebanon”??? Israel INVADED Lebanon in March. There is ZERO evidence they *ever* plan to withdraw. Look at Syria as an example…
I completely agree w @Glenn_Diesen here: we need to seek a negotiated end to the Russia/Ukraine war as soon as possible.
Russian attacks and statements of late imply something different is unfolding, and this war could escalate soon, possibly beyond Ukraine border into Europe. We must avoid having to face an Article 5 crisis that could lead us all into a hot war w nuclear armed Russia.
It is profoundly in our economic and security interests to end this war, quickly, before we get sucked in.
