Americans have been warned that there are still many al Qaeda "sleepers" i.e., "cells" in this country just waiting to commit another 9/11. How many of these sleepers have infiltrated the pro-KLA communities under the guise of being freedom fighters for Kosovo independence?"

A recent report in The Brooklyn Connection writes, "It's common knowledge that buying weapons in the United States is surprisingly easy. But what about outfitting a foreign guerilla army? Meet Florin Krasniqi, one of the driving forces behind Kosovo's fight for independence. He lives in Brooklyn, N.Y., where he runs a successful roofing company. But he is leading a double life. "The Brooklyn Connection," based on material from Stacy Sullivan's book, Be Not Afraid, For You Have Sons in America, shows the terrifying ease with which this charming businessman raised $30 million during the Kosovo War, purchased weapons across the USA, and shipped them legally to Albania to be smuggled into Kosovo. [Note: Legally? In a TV interview Krasniqi admitted that the weapons were shipped as "hunting weapons for a safari to Africa."] The war ended in 1999, but Krasniqi warns that there could be another struggle with arms provided by this Brooklyn roofer."

What is more important is that The Brooklyn Connection article does not mention the fact that Florin Krasniqi immigrated to the United States from Kosovo on Christmas Eve 1988 by sneaking across the Mexican border in the trunk of a Cadillac. To read more on Kraniqi, please go here where a photo of Krasniqi and more interesting information is available.

And get this! A report from The House of Wheels, an Australian publication states, "But back to the documentary [please note that the "documentary" is in German] - 11:08 into the video, we see KLA recruiter and illegal immigrant Florin Krasniqi at a John Kerry fundraiser with a few other KLA members. Then the defining moment - the KLA terrorists are shown, on video, financially contributing to the John Kerry campaign. Shortly afterwards, the video shows Democrats Wesley Clark and Richard Holbrooke having a nice laugh with the terrorists. A quick check of Fundrace.org found that Florin Krasniqi has donated to the Kerry campaign, and that Florin Krasniqi has raised 30 million for KLA, who we have already established is a terrorist organisation."

A New York Times article of 4 March by Joyce Walder titled, "Side by Side in Life, and Now, in Death," sympathetically chronicles the deaths of the three Bytyqi Albanian-American brothers who went together to Kosovo to fight and die along side the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA). Please read,"Is Self-Defense a 'War Crime'? How KLA terrorists are turned into 'victims',".

In her often moving article, Ms. Walder left out a few important facts regarding the KLA for whose cause the Bytyqi brothers died. In 1998, State Department officials listed the Kosovo Liberation Army as a terrorist organization. The KLA was labeled as the "Vietcong of the Balkans," by Mark Almond, chairman of the British Helsinki Human Rights Group (BHHRG) in the British weekly Spectator of 3 April 1999. Marcia Christoff Kurop in The Wall Street Journal on 1 Nov. 2005, titled, "Al Qaeda's Balkan Links," reported that "For the past 10 years, the most senior leaders of al Qaeda have visited the Balkans, including bin Laden himself on three occasions between 1994 and 1996." It should be noted that this WSJ Eujropean report did not appear in the WSJ national edition for American consumption. Chris Hedges described the KLA's founders as "diehard Marxist-Leninists as well as descendants of the fascist military raised by the Italians in World War II," in a New York Times article of 28 March.

Albanian Mafia in the USA

Janes Intelligence Review POINTER of November 1995 writes of The Albanian cartel: filling the crime void. "During the past two years, more and more Albanians have been arrested in the USA - especially across the Northeast - and law enforcement officials believe they are linked to an increasingly well-organized crime presence. This is particularly evident in New Jersey, where, between 1994-95, Albanians have been arrested for widespread burglaries of supermarkets, bank telling machines and restaurants...

It has been these latter links which the authorities find especially disquieting. In Germany, for example, the Turkish mafia has offered Albania a conduit and infrastructure for drug trafficking into Western Europe. Algerians and Moroccans provide the kosovars with the opportunity to ship small arms and refugees to various ports via Rotterdamn."

The report further states: "Until recently, Albanians have worked for other criminal organizations (the mafia, for example) as couriers, mules and assassins, but during the mid-to-late 1980s, Albanians began to operate on their own. In the USA, the Pizza Connection Case of 1986-87 managed to disrupt a significant portion of the Sicilian Mafia's US heroin trade. The subsequent void left by the sting offered hundreds of small ethnic crime groups based in the tri-state (New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut) area the opportunity to fill the void and conduct business for themselves. Concurrently, in the Balkans the rise of Serbian President Slobodan Milseovic and the beginning of the severe crackdown on Albanians in Kosova (sic) opened the door for an embryonic underground black market which now flourishes."

Of the war against terrorism, President Bush says, "You're either with us or against us." Therefore, how is it possible that we have aligned ourselves with Osama bin Laden's Kosovo Liberation Army?

With all this in mind, the Serbian people have had to face not only the Albanian mafia, the Kosovo Liberation Army, al Qaeda, the entire Islamic world, thanks to Iran, (see: Clinton-Approved Arms Transfers Help Turn Bosnia into Militant Islamic Base,) but also the pro-Albanian American lobby in Congress, the anti-Serb worldwide media and all of NATO. Let us not forget that 19 NATO members with approximately a 900 million population, bombed a sovereign nation of only 10 million that never harmed us.

Many in Congress are today striving to give Kosovo, Serbia's Jerusalem, seat of the Serbian Orthodox church, independence, in essence rewarding the Albanian Muslim mobs for eradicating any and all Christian Serbian presence and where much of the conniving was orchestrated right here in the United States by the Albanian mafia to send blood money to their brethren in Kosovo.
