Who are the 6 men charged in plot to attack Fort Dix? Why do we say that 4 of them are from former Yugoslavia?

Question

What does it mean from former Yugoslavia? Where exactly are these men from? To me (and anyone else who used to live in former Yugoslavia), it is clear these men are Albanians whose independence from Serbia we so wholeheartedly support. Why isn't the media saying "Albanian men from Kosovo or Serbia or wherever they had come from"? Why are they saying former Yugoslavia when the country as such ceased to exist a long time ago?

And what do those who support Kosovo independence have to say now? Is this just another isolated incident (along with Bosnian (also former Yugoslavia) Muslim boy who was shooting people in Salt Lake City not so long ago)?

Answer 1

They are muslims, Albanians from Kosovo.
This is not surprising, what is shocking is that USA strongly supports them in gaining independence. Terrorism isn't anything new for Albanians from Kosovo, unfortunately, but no one seem to care when that terrorism is towards Serbs and Serbia. Former Yugoslavia doesn't exist anymore, and really is interesting why media use that sintagma, even though they know
their nationality.
And just to add one thing: Serbs never did any kind of terrorism, towards USA or somebody else, even when they were bombing us, and we can be proud for not being terrorist nation.

Answer 2

Because Kosovo is part of Serbia.

Someone could have left before the current divisons occured or they could have lived in a number of different parts of Yugoslavia. If the person is ethnically Albanian, but from Bosnia or Slovenia, It is a lot easier to just ID them as Yugoslavian, rather than pretending you know more about them than you do.

Answer 3

This is why they are now former Yugoslavia.

1918 -Inception of Yugoslavia. It was originally called the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.
1929 - The name of the country was changed to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia/
1941 - Invaded by Axis powers during WWII and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia was dissolved.
1945 - Yugoslavia became known as the Democratic Federation of Yugoslavia and comprised the republics of Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Macedonia.
1946 - Renamed to Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia.
1963 - Became the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
1992 - Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was formed out of Serbia and Montenegro.
2003 - The name "Yugoslavia" was dropped and the country became known as "Serbia and Montenegro."
2006 - Serbia and Montenegro become independent nations.

Answer 4

Good point about the geographical terminology.

I don't see what this event and the Salt Lake City thing have to do with one another. Are you saying that in supporting the independence of European Muslims that we are somehow encouraging this kind of behavior? Or are you saying that welcoming immigrants from that area is dangerous?

Answer 5

Let's see.they were the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker, a doctor, a lawyer and an indian chief.

If all of this is true (and I'm not completely certain that it wasn't somewhat encouraged and possibly even sponsored by the undercover informant that was reporting on the groups activities) then it would appear that dumbya has finally gotten his holy war that he was seeking.

Answer 6

I thought I was imagining things but now that you mentioned when they arrested Ante Gotovina (a croat) both CNN and BBC said "a man responcible for crimes in the former yugoslavia", but whenever they say about Mladic or Karadzic they always mention that he is a serb nationalist responsible for genicide...

Answer 7

Yugoslavia, Indonesia or where ever, If they are Islamic and they wage war, for which they call jihad is against those who do not agree with their Islamic belief's.

In their Quran, it clearly states if you do not except Islam you will be beheaded, to kill all the infidels. And other mentions I will not put on the Internet. Very graphic in how to torture the infidels. Sick, Sick, Sick!

The definition of Islam is: Submission.

Have you ever wonder why they pray five times a day?
They truly do not know how many times to pray, they pray to allah because they think the more they pray the more favor allah will show them. I got news for you, you do not earn your way into heaven or what they call paradise. God is love, not hatred.

Could the anger be because they do not have a personal relationship with muhammad?

To me this is very distributing. I don't understand any religion that requires you to kill others because their belief's are different. This is not religion, it is pure Evil!

Answer 8

all good muslims.
