I've never seen the guy before but he says a lot of the things that I say. He actually knows how to do research ! The people who run this world have done a good job getting people to believe their lies. Until people learn the truth about history ... there will be animosity towards each other.

Danny..... This guy is a joke let me explain something to each and every American or other people from different countries. I'll try to keep it short I'm Bosnian came to this country as a war refugee after losing my father and his father both died fighting Serbs on front lines. This guy and alot of men and their families and fathers RAN AWAY from bosnia and Albania that's why Serbs where able to kill so many of us.In war numbers count...... Running away from war with your whole familys in hand is not ok folks I know for a fact many Americans if other men came to this country I know for a fact Americans would not run away. Please please please people don't believe this clown he is a fake Muslim with a odd accent lol being born in America ok no. I'm actually American now but I never brag about crap that is not real. please Danny this guy lied to you and your show ask him why his father and his father's whole family ran away? You let other men die for you ? So you can claim to be a real man ? Wtf Danny if you want real Truth what happened in the Balkans we can chat, but this guy is a phony I've met many men like him all talk coward most albanians are very martial all about what they can show off to others. I would smack this clown in his mouth and I say same thing about bosnia people alot of them ran away and then they tell these grand tails of how they got out of war.... Blah blah no you did not! Danny if you want to have a chat with me and this clown live I would love to ! It would be so easy to break down every single lie this guy is saying I'm game. Anyone have any questions please ask I just can't stand people who lie and he is one.

I am 62 years old from Chicago and when I was 24 years old I met and Albanian Family who owned a Restaurant. My friends with their wives and I with mine use to go to his restaurant to eat after a night of party. It was a 24 hours 7days a week restaurant. The Owner and I became great friends for over 30 years. He past away 4 years ago at the age of 70. I still visit the family Resturants. I Love his family.

Even the experience of the most recent Afghans refugees to Albania has been largely positive. We love our brothers and sisters in Albania 🇦🇫🇦🇱

[@deniskika]

This is why Alexander the Great interbred with Afghanis and they still exist to this day

[@Ghurshah]

@@deniskika Alexander and any local marriages were eliminated long ago, and it was very minimal. The white looking people of Afghanistan were white originally from long before Alexander since they are Iranic Indo-European people. This idea that the blond looking blue eyes are Alexander's children is a lazy thought which assumes that Iranics (Iranians Tajik Afghan Kurd Baluch etc) are not originally as white as Europeans. Modern day paradigms necessitate that the East is seen as the other and any white looking ppl there are because of some Western invasion. This is very wrong. The word Iran is a variety for the word Aryan and is like the word Eire, Ireland .

Fun fact about Albania in WW2: we were invaded by the Italian Army and after the capitulation of Italy, Italian soldiers were left stranded in Albania. Albania was then invaded by German troops and at that time, following the capitulation Germany and Italy were kinda like enemies so the Germans were actively hunting Italian soldiers. Most Italian soldiers were sheltered by Albanian families who took them in their home and risked their whole families to defend the same soldiers that few months prior they were fighting against. They were under Albanian protection and Albanians were ready to die and have their whole family die to defend the people under their protection, even if they invaded and tried to kill them few months before

[@VllazniaAlbania]

True story. My grandpa saved an Italian officer. Gave him traditional clothes and told him to act as deaf and mute. When Germans came looking he said that’s my deaf and mute brother Zef (his real name Giuseppe Dela Montagnia)

When he said,..." He crawled down a mountain with his foot tied around his neck" I thought. Albanians are definitely the toughest men pound for pound.... Right under the terminator and chuck Norris. 😎👍

I like that comment 😄 🤣 I feel like a macho

This pod needs to be shared. Thanks for the pod guys.

Greetings from Albania! I am from Çamëria, the part of Epirus where the Greek shouvinists performed the forgotten genocide on the Muslim population just like the Serbs did in Kosovo.

[@greeceundiscovered9670]

Those lands have been Greek for thousands of years, because your the lap dogs of the Americans we lost it.

[@albaniasummer1993]

That’s a sad true fact

[@ginaibisi777]

Always the Albanians were suppressed by other nations and tried to aways make other countries believe that the Albanians are only good at taking cows and sheeps to pasture on the fields.

[@sbz666]

Hopefully it will be liberated 1 day 🙏

Thank you for educating me on Albania.

[@predragnicic7138]

It would be also educational to listen some Serbian or some Greek talkin about

[@dreamtobeapolyglot8444]

I am looking forward to watching this and learning some history of Albania

[@benlawler5515]

I watched both these podcasts and I was very impressed. I believe your very close to on point but either way right wrong doesn’t matter to me . What matters is that you’re teaching the truth about origins of faith and how the 3 major religions share their roots and show we are all brothers and sisters in God .

[@kleveskraja4410]

I enjoy every minute of the video . Great respekt from Albania

[@GDartcollection]

This was outstanding. Thank you gentlemen.

That is absolutely beautiful. That a country would be this grateful and respectful to the United States.

Love this guy. One of my favorite podcasts of all-time.

[@The_Bobby_Jay]

What an amazing guest. I’ve never heard anything about this guy but he’s so solid in every way from the things I saw here. I’ll be looking him up when I finish.

[@ostap9531]

I visited Kosovo once and stayed at my friends place. His mother would always Cook so much and such delicious food that the whole week I‘ve Never visited a Restaurant, it was that good! Generally good people, with good principles and i think the only place in europe which had more jews After WW2 than before!

[@TheBekLoverPodcast]

That’s a fact

[@TrassseB]

Yeap approximately 200 Jews before WW2 & 2,500 after the war in 1945 almost all moved to USA & Israel because of communism. Also up to 10,000 transited through Albania from 1939-1944 with Albanian passports made their way from Albanian ports to USA & holly land. Also as he said Einstein stayed in the presidential palace until he was equipped with a Albanian diplomatic passport and made his way to USA. One of the reasons it was so hard for Nazis to find Jews was not because they were hiding but because Albanians were passing off Jews as their relatives having been given Albanian papers and the fact that both Muslims & Jews were circumcised a way that Germans really did use to see if your were a Jew 🤦‍♂️

[@Hellodarkness1001]

Beautiful Bek, this was lovely, need more podcasts like this

[@dereklarson3169]

Enjoyed this whole conversation. Cheers!

thank you for shedding light on how much is truly taken for granted in this country, sadly by generations of those of us born "free." We are lucky to have people who understand the value of freedom and loyalty, who can share wisdom of such caliber. thank you for bringing more of what is really needed right now. 🌹🕊️

❤❤❤

[@TheAnthoula14]

Awesome guest Danny. I'm first generation Greek. He's right, the neighboring countries are suspicious and prejudiced unfortunately. And he's right about desperation fueling drive. Having nothing forces you to do things you never thought you could. Unfortunately having that kind of trauma screws you up on some levels. I've been stuck in my parents white middle class suburban town since the pandemic. The level of ignorance of the real world is both upsetting and depressing. Travel is out of reach for a lot of us right now. But there's KZbin, documentaries, all kinds of ways to broaden your mind a little, if you really want to.

[@TheBekLoverPodcast]

Listen man, if you ever had a chance go to south Albania and expirience your heritage

Thanks Manuel

[@tj8114]

Thank you, Mr. Lover. You eloquently voiced my concerns for my country. I fear that the US is on the verge of collapse in every way. As a nation, we have forgotten that with our rights comes responsibility for ourselves, our neighbors, and our government. You speak with sensitivity and passion. Please continue to do so. Thank you.

When he said i was an American 1st...i will die for this country 1st...made me feel proud for a moment again to be from and reside in America...

[@stefraivan]

When I was a kid in the 80´s, going on family vacations in that region of the world, at lake Prespa exactly in Greece, I would stare at the black mountains just in front on the Albanian side and I thought it was the most mysterious place on earth. It was at the time Albania was some kind of North Korea, with bunkers all over the place, with orders to shoot anybody trying to get in or out of the country.

[@freudvibes10]

That sounds a really interesting and deep perception, from the view point of a child. I was also born in '80 in Albania, not far from the border.

I went to Albania in 1997. Beautiful country. The mountains are amazing. Theres also pillbox across the country. You see them everywhere. Theyre like McDonald's in the US

[@Xfighter000]

@Uzi Zokal Pillboxes are concrete bunker positions to shoot out of, built in case of invasion.

This… was… VERY GOOD! You’ve had many amazing guests but I really enjoyed this one, the quality of the Audio and conversation was a hook. Hot topics and respectfully ideas where given. Keep them coming, great channel mannn!

[@RidingwithDylan]

Funny thing about this channel, I wish there where more content and I have probably watched 30+ hours of your content… 🥂

Albanians have something that you don't know , they are good with others but no good to each - other ! They are not united to protect each other rather bossing each other . I think no matter what culture you come from great people are great people !
