But what you are doing is helping to make it worse. You do not get it?
Whole nations are killed or expelled from that territory and you just
say it is ok.
Why you do not try to help those people who cannot get back to their
homes because propel you support do not allow them to, and threaten them
to kill them on sight?
You are developing relations only with Albanian people and help them to
legalize what they took by horror crimes.
Yes, you may say differently but everything you do show what are your
actual goals: to proclaim as legal state of vandalism, mass kilings and
taking over others private property.

Really? And why you first have to finish renaming you are accomplishing
and then ask to stop renaming_ Why you did not stop renaming at first place?
And again, yu are luying. I already corrected what you said: renaming
you are participating in is not dated in 1989, but in 1999. Until 1999.
in Kosovo i Metohia both Serbian and ALbanian languages were freely used
includin official form.
In 1999. Albanians started proccess of albanization of everything which
includes renaming.
You know it very well, and you still persist lying about it.

And what about people who initially named Priština as Priština (Приштина
actually) and who were killed or expelled in 1999. and afterwards? You
do not considered a bomb that they were left without lives and homes,
they cannot get back and as result of that?
Albanian population prevails as result of crimes they committed against
all other nations who lived there, and you just support Albanian
population and simply declare that it's all theirs now and they can
rename whatever they want?
What about victims? What about their fear? What about their hope to get
back to their homes? What message are you sending to them by renaming
their homes in Albanian and doing everything you can to make it look
that not just Serbian, but no other nation ever lived there? Is that
message of making good relations to all people as you declare?
No, what you do is crime against law and crime against humanity.
OSM should not allow that. If you had good intentions you would go to
Albania and start your projects in Albanian language. Every reason says
that every single project you are participated in, which solely purpose
is to albanize, should run in Albania.
There are just two reasons why you do it in Kosovo i Metohija: one, to
support Albanian declaration of independence of Kosovo i Metohija, and
to help them finish their bloody job by totally albanizing that
territory in the process, and second: in Kosovo i Metohija you can get
lots of money for your bloody job while pretending you are doing humane job.

I agree, go to your own little part of the world, in your own homeland
and do this. Do not experiment on foreign territory, and with foreign
people, especially if there are unsettled issues among them, like in
Kosovo i Metohija.
