Postovani gospodine Sharri,
Zahvaljujem Vam na pismu. Veoma me raduje da udjem u dijalog sa
Albancima jer smatram da nase razlike treba prevazici, ili bar
pokusati prevazici, demokratskim dijalogom zasnovanim na cinjenicama,
a ne oruzjem i silom.
Zamolio bih Vas da podvucete delove mojeg teksta koji iskazuju
nacionalizam, mrznju, i cisto zlo. Hocu da znam koje moje stavove
tako dozivljavate i na osnovu cega sebi dajete za pravo da ih
kvalifikujete kao takve?
> Kao prvo zasto jedan skolovan Srbin upotrebljava albansku rec

> Ili engleze Inglismeni? Ne verujem. Vi vredjate gospodine, vredjate 2
Nisam znao da Vas to vredja. Ako je tako, upotrebljavacu rec "Albanci".

Na zalost, ja to dozivljavam kao veoma krupnu pretnju, i kao mrznju sa
Vase strane. Nikada me niste upoznali, ne znate sa kim se druzim, kakav
sam covek, samo znate ono sto ste procitali na forumu NB -- a ipak
donosite sud o meni i pretite.
Voleo bih da podvucete u mojim prethodnom tekostovima -- gde sam ja to
"mislio mrznjom"?
> Kao drugo, sta smo mi to vama dosta ucinili u zadnjih 50 godina
> ili bolje receno sta sam vam ja i moja porodica i gotovo svi albanci
> koje ja znam, ucinio? NISTA, BAS NISTA. A doslo je toliko daleko,
Dragi gospodine, mozda Vi konkretno nista niste uradili, ali ako hocete
da znate sta su ucinili Vasi sunarodnici iz Oslobodilacke Vojske Kosova u
samo protekle dve godine, prilazem spisak njihovih teroristickih dela pri
kraju ovog pisma. Da li Vi opravdavate njihove akcije? Da li ih
podrzavate? Da li poricete njihova zlodela?
Veoma me interesuje sledece -- da li Vi podrzavate etnicko ciscenje Srba
sa Kosova i Metohije? Vidite, pitam Vas to zbog toga sto ja ne podrzavam
etnicko ciscenje Albanaca. A cini mi se da vecina Albanaca, svojim
ponasanjem (pretnjama) i delima (ubistvima i napadima na Srbe), zeli
upravo to -- etnicki cisto Kosovo i Metohiju samo za Albance. Molim Vas,
ispravite me ako gresim.

Srdacan pozdrav,
