National Liberation Army

[Karl Marx's Camel]

The NLA (shtria Çlirimtare Kombëtare).

Do they have some leftist characteristics? Do they have an ideology?

[Insomniac]

What rebel group is this?

Are you talking about the Colombian ELN?

However the title looks like it is in Albanian?

Can you tell us where you heard of this group?

The Ushtria Çlirimtare Kombëtare are the Macedonian equivilant of the Ushtria Çlirimtare e Kosovës (generally known as the 'Kosovo Liberation Army' in the West)- bandits and drug trafficers with a few Nationalist slogans. Many NLA soldiers are KLA vets, so the organisations are often confused.

Their ideology is Albanian Nationalist, of varying degrees. Some say they want to become one with Albania ('Greater Albania'), while others want to be autonomous, while others want to be independent, while others simply want better representation. They're not even slightly leftist. As I've said, disgusting bandits and oppotunists.
