Here's another email I sent Soaring about this topic:
"
1. The links that you said also mention Mageson a lot

2. What is wrong with the "Albania's Nightmare of Communism" PDF, in detail;
He claims Albanians have Illyrian ancestry. There is actually no historical proof of this, Albanian ancestry is heavily debated today, while actually, most historians claim they are of Asian/Caucasian ancestry and not Illyrian. In the Caucasus, there literally was a state called Albania earlier. DNA proves this as well.
Not only is it debated if Albanians are Illyrians, but even if Southern Slavs are Illyrians. There are many medieval documents actually proving this, also the Austro-Hungarian population censuses calling Serbs "Illyro-Serbs".
I hope now you understand a bit more why this is a topic so controversial for everyone that it should not be included in our PDFs, someone will always get offended if we get into the Illyrian topic.
Secondly, he is saying that UDBA was against Albanians repressing them. With no sourcing. Let me give you real UDBA documents about this sir:
Confiscation of property by communist authorities in favor of Albanians, against Serbs.
All these documents prove that commies were and always will be the enemies of Serbia and its people.
Order of the Ministry of the Interior of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia to make mass graves of Serbs a secret.
The Communist UDBA was actually opening the border for Albanian immigrants, ALLOWING THEM TO HAVE THEIR OWN SCHOOLS IN ALBANIAN LANGUAGE, ETC...
And after this, THEY FORBID SERBS THAT WERE EXPELLED FROM KOSOVO TO RETURN, SO THAT ALBANIANS COULD SETTLE THERE!
Is this suppression against Albanians, Soaring?
Magestein is using the example of one man from Kosovo who was imprisoned as proof that UDBA was suppressing Albanians, oh come on. He wasn't imprisoned because he was Albanian, but because he was against Tito who saved thousands of his people and settled them in Serbian Kosovo.
Proof of this is also the demographics, look how the number of Albanians and their immigrants rises, and how the number of Serbs gets lower and lower in Kosovo.
Communists wanted Albania to join Yugoslavia, so they used Kosovo as a bait, settling it with Albanians and giving them everything there. More about this, just google "Informbiro 1948"
