Serbia has oppressed Kosovo for too long my Russian friends. I knows that Russia and Serbia have been close allies for a long time (so close in fact Russia went to war with Germany in 1914).
However, We Americans cannot alienate the Muslim world anymore, they need to be brought into the fold. America needs to back Kosovan Independence to show Muslims worldwide that America will stand for
any country gaining independence from an oppressor.
If Russia wants to needlessly escalate the situation then by all means go right ahead. Russia will be forced to bow down if America puts substantial amounts of troops in the region.
If Russia wants to further alienate the Middle East, then go ahead. Russia should not be involved in this one, it will only result in pushing NATO together against the Bear yet again.
ANd we all remember what happened last time the West did that
