Everything can be pushed or covered up by propaganda, but let's look at official census of Kosovo:

Of course, you failed to mention, or didn't know, that only 50 years before the conflict, the ethnic structure was:

1953: 65% Albanians vs 23% Serbs

In the eve of the 1999 bombing, it was:

1991: 82% Albanians vs 10% Serbs

And after the bombing and separation:

2011: 93% Albanians vs 1.5% Serbs

So, Albanians jumped from 65% to 93% and Serbs virtually disappeared from 23% to 1.5% in just 60 years. So, can you tell me - how's that explained?

Looking at your table, from 1953 to 1991 number of serbs actually grew, it's just that number of albanians grew at a much higher rate, so their % increased. As to what happened in the next 10 years to the serbian population, I don't know, you suggesting that they were deported by the albanians?
