When We Return - Kosovo

A personal tale of Kosovars in a refugee camp in Macedonia. Prisoners from a land at war across the border, not allowed out of the camp and with no freedom. Children separated from their families by a terrible war. Lots of boredom, enclosed with nothing to do. It's not all bad; there are occasional days out, clown visits, attempts to make the tragic memories of a war refugee less miserable. Finally comes word that the refugees can return home. All of a sudden everyone is busy, the camp is broken down, the refugees are on the move. They return past the detritus of war on tractors, in buses -- however they can. But what terrible scenes await them. The villages now the graveyards of their war dead. Litter details the end of missing family members. Mass graves the only mortal remnants of rel
atives, bodies still protruding from the earth. A watch still ticks on a skeleton's wrist. Terrible graffiti from the Serbs, now evicted after their mean doings. And the burials of those who stayed behind to fight, their bodies exhumed from shallow graves, their legacy finally allowed to be celebrated. And even Madelaine Albright comes to celebrate the homecoming with them.

@kingkongrichie

The past is nothing to ignore.

Learn from it, and try not to make the same mistakes as the people in the past have. There is no hope when there is ignorance in the air.

@nikolaarsovski you fucking crazy, what are you trying to say that Macedonia did humanitarian aid to Albanian refugees ... it's fucking BULLSHIT stop ridiculing you more than you really are, here I come with the truth for those not familiar with it ..

[koprivaqi]

@nikolaarsovski .....Macedonian government had with great willingness closed borders and perhaps even ill-treat the poor refugees, but they dared not because of primarily * world * and last but not least 45-50% of the population in Macedonia consists of Albanians who stood up for his people and helped them entirely independent of the Macedonian government!
