Look more like the serbian brown shirts to me. The Serbian government is behind it;but what do you expect from them after what they were willing to do in Kosovo.
"Muslim" isn't an ethnicity. It's a religion. That's like saying "they don't look very Catholic".
As far as Islamic dress, that varies from region to region.
Yeah the thing about Albanian and Bosnian Muslims confuses me because they don't "act" (not "look" i guess) Muslim. In all the news reports they've not had a single Albanian from Kosovo talk about "jihad" or "the will of Allah" or how the "hand of Allah" guided them to independence. There's no mention of mosques also. They are almost all dressed like Europeans and not Muslims.
I've also read that the Bosnian "Muslims" share the same language as the Serbs and Croats and that their ethnicity is not very different, is that true?
Frankly I do fear future secessionist movements in the Southwest. While I sympathize with the KOsovar Albanians as the most pro-Western group in the Balkans (and they're only really nominally Muslim with many of them are actually Chrisitian) and because of what they went through, this is a questionable precedent.
