To all of you potential americans and jews who watch this video: Besa is not a religious code, rather an ethnic code of albanians! Besa is more important than any religion to an albanian!

[SokolaniMartinajve]

JUST LISTEN TO THE SPEAKER!!!!!

EVERYTHIN IS TRUE, IT´S NORMAL TO US!!!

eyy serbs stop your PROPAGANDA against Albanians!!!!!

[SokolaniMartinajve]

I SOONER HAVE MY SON KILLED THEN BREAK MY "BESA"!!!!!!

thats the way Albanians think!

The first in our House is God then the Guest and then our family.........the Jews were guests so the KANUN say that we have to protect them even if our own lives were in danger!!!!

thats simple humanity how it should be all over the world!!!

[UnitedAlbania4ever]

I'm proud that ALBANIANS saved so many JEWS

but the most jews don't know that so they think that albanians are terroirsts only of the fact that we are muslims and the serbian comments on youtobe force their opinion

[mollegjate]

I work with a Jewish american and he is well informed what albanians did to help his people. I don't understand why should we hate jews. For what reasons.  I would say we are like them, no body likes us. We have to come together and become stronger and defeat our enemies all around us.

[loni360]

death to the jews. they made communism . communism did not a thing for albanians. hitler gave our ppl our land back and hitler orded 500,000 serbs in kosova to death by hanging. i dont konw y albanians dont like hitler. he did a lot of our ppl

[TheCyMan]

The ONLY Jew of some power in the Soviet Union was Trotsky and Stalin had him killed. The nazis killed Muslims too.

[loni360]

yea the ones in the usa army and albanian commies and the ones who were helping the jews. and SEE COMMIES NEVER HELP ALBANIANS

[myndwork]

@loni360 too much bullshit in a few sentences my friend. you suck some major balls!

[kosovariFORever]

I am proud to be Albanian of Kosova. Rescuing the Jewish people was a decent and human act.

[tjb70]

In Albania proper, Jews were saved. Bless those who didn't turn their Jewish neighbors over to the Germans! Sadly, the Nazi SS Hanjar Division (1941-1945) was comprised of Bosnian & Albanian Muslims who killed countless Jews & Serbs in Yugoslavia along with the Germans.

[TheCyMan]

Those people were conscripted by force and many turned against the nazis.

[19AlbaDevil84]

@tjb70 it was the SS SKANDERBEG !!!

[loinsheaven]

but what israel doing with muslims in phelistine

[TheCyMan]

The world agrees with you that israel is the real terrorist!

[Dalmenco]

its like genocide commited against romans or nazis?

[tariqtag]

this is the morals of true muslims

[7diesIrae]

A video respond:

watch?v=2z8qDS_ufxY

[TheCyMan]

The Albanian Muslims saved the Jews in WWII the CATHOLICS were members of the WAFFEN SS SKENDERBEG DIVISION!

[aldion2]

what are u talking about man the whole kosovo was in the SS mountain division and i dont think that any albanian is more muslim than the kosovars.

[TheCyMan]

The WAFFEN SS SKENDERBEG DIVISION is CATHOLIC and HATES Muslims! Just look at some of their comments to me on my channel!

[AliDemsiTR]

I cannot say the same about Christian countries when greeks 'liberated' Thessalonica for example all jews were massacred and property stolen( the main reason) The last jews from ALbanian were sent in Israel in 1992 through a Albanian Governement mission, "flying carpet" i think , many of them returned back though, most living in the capital.

[7diesIrae]

It´s a long albanian tradition to save jews even in the preislamic time.

It has nothing to do with islam.

It has more to do with christianity and the hospitality that was even in the Kanun writen by the christian Lek Dukagjini at time there was no muslim albanian.

Jews think about that!

[AliDemsiTR]

"""It´s a long albanian tradition to save jews even in the preislamic time.""'

??????

What jews are you talking about then , cos the only jews, were tehe ones who came with the grant of the ottoman empire, after they were kicked out of Spain.

You shoulyd read more history Mr Christian Montenegro.

[7diesIrae]

It doesnt matter what some muslim albanians did in world war 2.This hospitability remained at them despite Islam but it has nothing to do with it.

It was an pre-islamic albanian tradition it has his roots at christian albanians.

And Leke Dukagjini an christian albanian wrote that KANUN where the Hospitability is showed.

I hope jews do not use that in order to have a good relation ship to Muslim world.

[7diesIrae]

And it doesnt matter if you helped them during the ottoman empire.

It´s pre-ottoman and pre islamic tradition!

[AliDemsiTR]

Nope its not, if it was a pre Islamic tradition there would e some jews in Christoian cities, the biggest number of jews were in Sarajevo and Ottoman bastions, allover the Balkans.

Cities were the Ottoman power was strong were the cities were Jews resided, this because of a Kanun (law) granting them freedom under the Ottoman empire, freedoms they Still have today in Much of the Balkan States were muslims reside.

[7diesIrae]

And it doesnt matter if you helped them during the ottoman empire.

It´s pre-ottoman and pre islamic tradition!

If you dont know that you are not Albanian.

Every Albanian knows that.

[AliDemsiTR]

OK, if it is a pre-islamic tradition just prove a jewish settlement of at least 10 ppl in any christian city at least as far as the 1900s .

There is no jew living even in christian neighborhoods.

Sorry to dissapoint you and yr wannabe philosophic videos.

ALBANIANS ARE A MUSLIM MAJORITY

[TheCyMan]

In 1492, Sultan Bayezid II accepted the expelled Jews of Spain with open arms. Jews held prominent positions in the Ottoman System, as did Christians. There were no pogroms in the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Turks did not force people to convert or die by the sword. The Ottoman Empire was the most tolerant empires in human history. Everyone was treated according the law. Any allegation that minorities were treated badly in the Ottoman Empire is false.

[BOGZASV8MA]

well Turks have been propagandizing on their fictional benevolent rules for so long that they have been trying to deny the armenian genocide, kurdish genocide, and greek genocide in the 20th century. if they are lieing now, they were lieing in the past to get western support for modern weapons.

[TheCyMan]

Really! Even Israel has recognized the role played by Turkic Muslims in rescuing holocaust victims even as they today protest the mistreatment of Palestinians today.

[BOGZASV8MA]

yea and turkey has been a slave granting nation since its birth. besides read bat yeor entitled "dhimmitude" thats your fictitions benevolent muslim rule over non-muslims.

[BOGZASV8MA]

besides bat yeor is an egyptian jew. that author who researched islamic suppression from the koranic inspiration of the hadith and sharia laws.

[TheCyMan]

bat yeor was an Egyptian born zionist who incited hatred against Muslims much like anti-Semitism against the Jews, much of her work is discredited.

[Dalmenco]

i was reading through this post . hmm.

albanian muslims saves jews. and now

zionists are evil jews. this post contradicts saving jews .

[TheCyMan]

Ah you are using the straw man approach by misrepresenting my position. There is a major difference between Jews and Zionists, most American Jews are Liberals opposed to Zionism even opposing the war in Iraq. Many anti-Semites are Zionists supporting Israel as way of ridding Europe of Jews!

[Dalmenco]

anti-semites supporting israel???????

Isnt that an oxymoron? words that contractict one another?

[UnitedAlbania4ever]

wow ur very interested in the albanian history nearly in every vid that deals of the fact that albanians saved jews you make an negative comment about albanians

what are you trying to do?I'm sure there were also serbs who saved jews but plz stop with the prejudices

[TheCyMan]

The Turks manufacture modern weapons on a scale that rivals Israel, without free U.S. Tax dollars! And they have had genocide committed against them as well.

[Dalmenco]

you admit they make weapons of destruction. and they had a 1000 year imperial empire suppressing people with no property rights. and conquering territory without democratic incentives.

[TheCyMan]

In 1492, Sultan Bayezid II accepted the expelled Jews of Spain with open arms. Jews held prominent positions in the Ottoman System, as did Christians. The Ottoman Empire was the most tolerant empires in human history. Everyone was treated according the law.

[Dalmenco]

if they were so tolerant why did the albanians rebelled with Skenderbeg? LOL

[TheCyMan]

Not all of us did! Most see Hamza Kastrioti as the REAL Albanian hero

[Dalmenco]

hmmm? yea i hear different stories every day.

[mollegjate]

Are u kiding me dude. You call yourself analbanian. Please..

If Scenderbeg is not in your heart, don't call yourself Albanian. Call it what ever u want, but not Albanian. You offend 4,2 milon people in Albania state and also all those who call themselfs albanians out side the borders, like kosova, Plave , guci, Ulqin, Diber e madhe etj.

With respect

[Dalmenco]

turks held an empire for centuries that would be impossible for a genocide to be committed against a ruling class.

Hajt shko banu katolik se a pe sheh se krejt po na zdrit popullin e ftyren.

Po ti je budall hala nuk e kupton o qov pi gjumit!!

[suart73]

I am an albanian whom regrets that both Turkey and Albania helped the jewish rats and saved them. After what the jews are doing to the palestineans, Hitler was right. On the other side, in Kosovo no jews was saved, all were handed to the SS German Unit. So telling tales about albanians does not mean it includes kosovans. We are two different nations.

The kosovars should hand over to Israel the criminals of SS Scanderbeg Devision, if the banana republic wants Israel to recognise it.

[AliDemsiTR]

After what jews did to Palestinians , i feel a little repented about this, but....hopefully there will be peace and Palestine will win it's rights. A state for both muslim, christian and jew will be the best option in the future.

God bless these people!

[CellestaChau]

Impressiv! Great Video! Thanks a lot for uploading! Now I know more about muslims and jews :) 5*****

[albob1o2]

now u now about albaniansss but see in the serbs and other rooms were people talk about us like we are straght none human,,,

[ManRic2]

fantastic story, it has been long history of friendship and peaceful life among Jews Christians and Moslems but we do not hear a lot of this, so war can go on, and some people have to be in power and some other getting rich try to eliminate that by spread this vid.

[sgirl2007]

I loved this vid..

[poitrenaud]

Just for the Record. Persian(Irani) Muslims also saved Armenians from a genocide during the Ottoman period.

Yes; there is "brotherly love" in times of Crisis-

Good is Good, no matter if Jew Muslim or Christian-

We must do good-

[skylofts]

What about the million Turks killed by the armenians? The Azaris being killed by the armenians? You do know that the armenians are trying to get the US to attack Iran? Some friends!

[albob1o2]

I hurd of that my persian friends told me that ...

[RAUSHIQ]

this is more than a trueth. Another fact that the jewish are appretiating this is that Isral ahs taken OFF visas for ALBANIANS citizins.

It's good when a strong country such ISRAEL is our friend.

Our time is COOMING - and very fast

[skylofts]

Albania has alot of good comming but with friends like israel watch your back!

[albob1o2]

what u mean,,, turkey is friends with them too,,,

[skylofts]

Some but watch your back, just ask a Palestinian!

[DardanianSoul]

a palestinian need to calm down and stop blowing themselfs like animals thinking they gona go in haven. Pathetic.
