Today the world bade farewell to Pope Francis, a widely beloved pope, a messenger of hope, humility and humanity who led with kindness, peace, strength and compassion. His humanity is an inspiration to us all, and he will be greatly missed. May he rest in the eternal peace🙏

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.

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!.
Make Kosovo Serbia again.
