Kosovo Prepares For Forthcoming Independence

PREKAZ, SERBIA - FEBRUARY 15: A member of the Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC) stands guard beside the grave of Kosovan hero Adem Jashari, on February 15, 2008 in Prekaz, Kosovo, Serbia. Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) leader Adem Jashari was among an estimated 45 Jashari family members and neighbours killed in 1998 by Serbian security forces in Prekaz, 40 kilometres west of the Kosovo capital Pristina, igniting a full-blown rebel insurgency against Belgrade. Adem Jashari has become a symbol of resistance for Kosovo-Albanians who commemorate the "Fire Night of Prekaz" (Photo by Carsten Koall/Getty Images)
