A JDC (the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee) volunteer: “What am I, an observing Jew, doing helping these refugees, these Muslims from Kosovo? It is an important question. During WW2 many Albanians saved Jewish lives and in fact I understand that Albania has the highest percentage of righteous gentiles of any country in the world. It is a very small world, people remember…people remember acts of kindness. We should try to build bridges, because with small bridges, person to person, we can become friends and perhaps change the world that way.”
From the earliest days of the refugee crisis in Albania and Macedonia in spring 1999, caused by the Serbian aggression and massacres against Kosovo Albanians, the JDC has provided emergency supplies, such as food, health care, mattresses, roofing materials, toys and children”s activity kits to refugees in the camps.
Among other charitable activities in Kosovo in 1999, JDC has helped making 30 schools accessible again in Kosovo, affecting more than 40,000 children.
Israel will never do anything humanitarian unless they will get something out of it. They are the modern Nazis.

You are wrong Gerhard to draw this kind of comparison, it is horrible what is going on in Israel and Palestinian territories, but we have our own serious problems, and historically we have always been friendly with Jews and Israel, and we should stay like that. Also read this: http://english.albeu.com/news/news/abbas-palestine-will-not-recognize-kosovo/189754/
Albania helped the jews during the war yes , politically maybe good relations past and present ,but the truth that they are using the same Hitler Nazi policies by building a wall and exterminating Palestinians and taking their lands is totally wrong. Based on that I wouldn’t want the help of criminals.
They won’t recognise Kosovo simply because if they did so it would be used against them to recognise Palestine and give them their land back.
Very proud Albanian because of our grand parents helping Jews and thanks to Jews for helping Albanian Kosovons! Recognition it’s simple politics nothing to do with religions 2 facts tons of Arab countries don’t recognise Kosovo and the Vatican don’t recognise independence which is majority of EU faith that recognise Kosovo independence
We helped the jews simply because we followed our Besa code, help a guest and anyone that needs help regardless of their religion.
The Jews knew this and the word quickly spread that if you can escape to Albania they will protect you because of their ways so they took advantage of this like they always have throughout history.
Jews consider them selfs the special race ,a superior race above the rest ,they consider non jews the scum of the earth and Myslims as vermin.
Their help comes with side effects.
Because I am muslim I don’t have to hate Jews and love Turks! Because Turks Serbs and Greeks killed Albanians it’s our fault that we forgive and forget easy
Forgive and forget is not a bad thing at all ,we can’t do to people what people did to us as that would make us like them. This is Exacly what Jews are doing ,the same as the Nazis did to them but more politically supported and modernised.
It is clear that what the State of Israel did is nothing less than participation in war crimes and crimes against humanity. Remember Peres and Rabin directly contributing in the acts of genocide that were perpetrated in Rwanda and KOSOVO? They approved the transfer of arms from the State of Israel – and not only through arms dealers – to Rwanda, and the Serbia of Slobodan Miloševic and the Serbian forces while the genocide was in progress.As a nation Besim, we have supported Jews when in time of need and not the state of Israel just as I will always support Palestinians and not necessarily their government.
I forgive if I was told sorry from Turks, Serbs, Greeks for genocide! But never forget people who fought and died for freedom! Best will be to ignore Israel and Palestine as is not our problem and focus with our kind neighbours pffff and EU which lots of Albanians think the angels unfortunately
Nuk po e propagoj as Izraelin as Palestinen, thjeshte e publikova nje lajm qe mendoj se eshte interesant dhe ka te beje me Kosoven dhe tmerret qe pesoi populli yne atebote. E di, ka probleme serioze ne Lindjen e mesme (por edhe ne Nigeri, termet ne Nepal, ngrohje globale, Ukraine, imigrantet qe po mbyten ne Mesdhe etj), po ne shqiptaret kemi aq probleme serioze dhe te pazgjidhura ne pragun tone, sa qe se pari duhet t’i japim rendesi teper te vecante “kauzes” sone. Ceshtja jone eshte nje ceshtje jetike dhe ende e pazgjidhur; mjaft kemi armiq dhe nuk na duhen armiq te rinj.
Absolutisht dakord Besim, shqip shqip ka lezet
E pasket harru shqipen me duket☺!
O lunja Shqipe lunja se pak kena problem tonat veq tash po na interesojn Te arabve e jahudive se ata jon kape njanin e mshoj per tjetrit kaceri I botes dypart!!!!!!!!
Kur serbet I kan helmu me qindra nxenes kosovar ne shkolla eshte konstatu se helmi ka qen prodhim I izraelit ata I ndihmun serbet ne cdo menyr
Per ne shqiptaret eshte me rendesi qe e ardhmja jone te jete pa perqarje dhe te jemi te lidhur ne menyr vllezerore e jo te kemi perqarje apo mosmarrveshje njerzore e kombetare. Nje perforcim i duhur ne edukaten kulturore dhe traditore mund te jet e vetmja menyr qe te jemi te paluhatur dhe te kemi mirenjohjen personale ndaj njeri tjetrit. Se qka thone e bejne te tjeret neper bote te mos na bezdis shume se askush nuk te jap krah apo mbeshtetje pa interes te gjithanshem.
Ju kemi dhan krah perpara ne luften e dyt boterore I kemi mshef neper shtepia e din ata shum mir jan shkru edhe libra ne kete drejtim edhe sot vin e bejn vizit familjare po buken qe han nuk duhet me ja permbys askujt se te vret
