Hi there. This solution for the next unending conflict of uncertain outcome but for certain the infection which can spread much further than the Balcans area is definitely a Witchdoctor opinion and as it seems , very hard to accept for anybody. But it is completely consistent with the framework Witchdoctor is pursuing in this blog.
First of all, there should be a referendum in this five , six , seven villages and places near the half confirmed borders between Kosovo and Serbia where this ,as it seems, 97% majority of Serbs is living. Under the supervision of the EU and the UN the referendum will decide if this villages want to join Serbia or stay in Kosovo. At the same time, after the RESULT, the Serbia govt and the Kosovo govt have obligatory to sign the treaty of mutually recognized borders and the existence of the two State entities.. For ever.
The religious Serbian Ortodox places in Kosovo should have the special status like Jerusalem once had in the Israel Arab territory. This special Jerusalem status was squandered for the future warmongering ad infinitum by Trump, Israel and the USA and other pals. So, happy times for them, there.
To avoid this shit of infection, places like Peč and similar should gain the special status for worship and the autonomy it goes with this status , seemingly sooo important for the Serbs.
By the way, when Witchlady will establish finally the new cargo cult religion of the “Holy navel”, the place where it will be worshiped, a New Stonehenge, will have the same status. Same goes even for some “Atheist Church” wherever it will take place.
You got the message? Yes, it is so.
Same goes for the Northern Ireland, Catalunya or anybody in this Planet and alas this moment was missed in Dumbass before the Russian invasion, for good.. A referendum, fair and square is the only way out. A special status and/or the shift of the territory into another State entity is the answer. Or ,, you prefer war? Yes, you do.
As for Northern Ireland and the Calvinist , protestant Unionist part: If they think they are Irish, they should learn Gaelic. If not, they should decide by a majority of ( you may put the number, from 51% to 60% or more) of ALL The eligible voters of what they think they are. If they think their Identity is a Religious Identity which may sound strange and it is, then they should go with their religious pals. If they think they are Irish, then Gaelic is the place to go.
If they can not decide properly, they should go to the shrink, asap. The split identity will not solve the problem of land, language and community.
For all this cases above, there is the last necessary condition: The Borders Must be Open between the two parts FOREVER. Same applies to cross border traffic of goods and people. Not necessary the capital flow but for the people working, buying meeting and living on any side , movement is free for ever, no taxing of goods.. What language they prefer to speak when they meet is their business.
