Adem Jashari fought to the very end alongside his family against 2,000 Serbian terrorists who came with tanks, machine guns, rockets, and helicopters.
He stood against an army. He became a legend. Remember his name. Remember his sacrifice.

Violent criminals only seem to have ~18% higher testosterone than members of the general population.
Sex offenders don't have higher testosterone at all.
The idea that testosterone-filled rage is driving crime is hard to reconcile with these observations.
We have a COMEDIC amount of evidence that Jesus existed.
This is not a theological claim.
Multiple independent textual sources, proximity in time, criterion of embarrassment, and consistency with the known political and religious setting of Roman Palestine all confirm it.
The oldest surviving writings that mention Jesus are the authentic letters of Paul, dated roughly 50–60 CE...about 20 years after the crucifixion.
The four Gospels (Mark c. 70 BC Matthew and Luke in the 80s, John in the 90s) are later and theologically shaped, but they draw on earlier oral and written traditions.
They place Jesus in a specific, historically coherent setting: Galilean synagogues, Capernaum, conflict with Pharisees and Herodian authorities, and a final confrontation in Jerusalem under Pilate.
Multible independent, non-Christian sources exist...
The Roman Senator and historian Tacitus writing in 116 BC, with open hostility toward Christians, states that “Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus.”
The passage is considered authentic; a Christian interpolator would not have called the movement a “pernicious superstition.”
Tacitus independently confirms the time, place, and Roman official involved in the execution
No ancient critic of Christianity like the Jewish rabbis or pagan polemicists like Celsus argued that Jesus never existed. They attacked his character, teachings, or miracles instead.
Archaeology has confirmed the existence of Pilate (the Pilate Stone.)
The “Christ myth theory” is beyond a fringe position. The overwhelming majority of experts have rejected it for more than a century.
Living in a "disadvantaged" neighborhood doesn't turn anyone into a violent criminal.
A 2021 study investigated this effect:
There are more criminals in disadvantaged neighborhoods (red line), but this is due to a selection phenomenon, since when the same person (blue line) changes neighborhood and ends up in a more disadvantaged neighborhood (or vice versa) during his or her lifetime, the probability that he or she will commit a violent crime hardly changes.
We can therefore say that there is a correlation, but not causation. Poverty does not explain criminal behavior.
as an eastern european, culturally i have NOTHING in common with white americans. you only see representation through race and it's fucking annoying. please explain how a girl from a former ussr satellite state can feel represented by an american
Personal property is things like your house, your underwear, your car. We want you to have personal property under communism
Private property is things like factories, utility companies, natural resources, the means of production; and those things should be owned by all
the problem with americans is they are on average very isolated from global politics and culture, only know history as far as it pertains to them and despite that are very arrogant and refuse to put in effort to understand others, but demand you know about and accommodate them
Let me explain you how (1) my country was enslaved by the Ottomans, (2) my ancestors were traded as slaves across Europe, (3) my country had no colonies but was colonized, (4) the Nazis actually had classed Slavic people/ Eastern European as “less than”
But yes, I am just white
i think/ hope we are seeing the rise of a “common sense left”; embodying progressive values unfettered by ideological orthodoxy or having to cater to insane luxury beliefs.
Until the Jewish community at large disavows this behavior I will uncover more of it.
Will the government follow up on any of this? Only time will tell.
And yes: if it's not clear enough by now, a large majority of self-described "conservatives", opposed to "waste", "fraud", and "abuse" have no principles.
If a story exposes the "protected groups" that are part of "their team", they become silent or defensive.
When degrees are handed out without the academic rigor behind them, the kids who suffer most are the well qualified, non-wealthy students who actually needed that credential to mean something in the labor market.
