The US & NATO bombed Serbia to stop the genocide in Kosova. If you threaten Kosova’s sovereignty, Croatia & Bosnia are next in line. Don’t forget the bloody horrors of the Yugoslav wars. Genocide is genocide. #NeverAgain

Make Kosovo Serbia again

[Mark Gjonaj @MarkGjonajNY]

This is a hateful & harmful statement that sympathizes with Serbian genocidists, war criminals and rapists. Albanians are indigenous to Kosova & paid for their independence with decades of horrors & atrocities… 1 million displaced, 13,950 killed, 20,000 raped, and 1,600 missing!

[Kingsley Wilson @KingsleyCortes]

Make Kosovo Serbia again
