One sided view of "Srebrenica " ?


Posts:


Reading a so called "revisiting Srebrenica", I found this passage: " cited by Judge Fouad Riad at a trial in The Hague some years later, an elderly man was skewered to a tree by a knife and made to eat the innards of his grandson; “truly scenes from hell,” said the judge, “written on the darkest pages of human history”. In my view, and view of many others, this is a classical DEMONIZATION of one faction of the conflicts which started in 1990-ties. Serbs are always portrayed as "DEMONS" with horns, who are eager to kill and torture all these "inocent" Muslims !! Isn't it clear to all that during the desintegration of former FRY, ALL factions, Croats, Muslims and Serbs were armed to the teeth, and they were fighting viciously to GRAB any region from "others" ! This was NOT the behavior of ONLY Serbs. Franjo Tudjman and Izetbegovic made sure that THEIR "fighters" for "liberation" from Serbian "domination" had a good supply of ARMS to accomplish the task of DESINTEGRATION of sovereign country - the Republic of Yugoslavia. So, STOP this Goebels propaganda of those who profitted from destroying this beautiful country within which ALL citizens had a standard of livingl which was close to the resto of Europe ! Only the MONEY crooks of the World could not tolerate the existence of a country which was based on SOCIALIST principles, and did everythin in their MONEY power to break it up. Why don't you publish some of the view expressed by The Serbians, who have suffered quite much from the attacks on THEM by these "inocents" victims of the conflict. Greetings to all who are brave to think for themselves, and not to please their "bosses". Dankusti

Thank you, sir or ma'am for defending my people and understanding the responsiblilty of all the Southern Slavs in this conflict. Problem is, however, what is done is done, and cannot be undone no matter how hard we try. The best solution is to move on and reconcile because we have to live next to each other, whether we like it or not, so we might as well make the best of it. I am of Serbian descent, and I am prime witness to the discrimination that results from one-sided reporting. Earlier this year, on the 10th anniversary, my home was vandalised and my daughter lost several friends at her school. It broke my heart to see that so many people were willing to gobble up whatever the large networks feed them and in the name of equality and non-discrimination---discriminate themselves against people of which they have no idea of their rich and ancient culture. It sickens me to see the hypocrisy and double standards of today's world, and it is enough to make one cynical and bitter, but we must press forward, to ensure that this horrible propaganda does not poison out future generations and condemn them to the same fate we have experienced.

Hello Sanja, I was glad to see that at least some people noticed my repudiation of what I call the "Western myths about Kosovo"! One of these "experts" had the following section in her description of her "study" of Kosovo situation: ".....bubbling ethnic hatred between the Serb minority and the Albanian majority..." Yes, of course, we know that now in spite of the so called "ethnic cleansing of Albanians by Serbs.." Albanians represent more than 80% of the people in that region. However, this "expert" is uninformed about the fact that in early 1950-ties, Albanians represented only about ONE THIRD, ( or 33% ) of the population, with Serbs and other ethnic groups ( Bulgarians, Romas, Macedonians ..) were the rest of population. So, HOW did Albanians in a short period of 40 years "took over" , numerically that region from Serbs and others ? Well, Sanja, these "experts" need to learn about what I call "Aggression by Reproduction" ! Albanians in Kosovo had a birth rate of MORE than 8 children per woman, while other groups had much smaller birth rate. So, Albanians doubled every 20 years, until now they claim to be a "majority" in that region of Serbia. The only happy Global faction about demonization of Serbs are, in my view, the Monetary World Swindlers, who are making billions of $$$$ by fueling these ethnic conflicts THROUGHOUT the World. Keep up the good fight for the truth so that you and your daughter might have a happier and more peaceful future. Best wishes to all who are FREE to THINK for themselves, and not along any "party lines". Dan Kustudich

i was born in yugoslavia in 1988 and after 1991 i became a citizen of the independent republic of macedonia.it is called 'the former yugoslav republic of macedonia" and really don`t see why it is called that.i mean why just croatia, slovenia ,Bosnia and herzegovina, serbia and montenegro and "the former yugoslav republic of macedonia". if anyone can find a reason there,i`d glad to hear it. about the topic, i think that the wars were wrong, but it`s also wrong all the slavic people to be portrayed as the bad guys. i hated milosevic and all that he did. about the albanians: 25% of the people in macedonia are albanians and this percentage was much lower in the past. it`s a fact that the number of albanians grows rapidly, but it`s not their fault. i don`t make a diference between serbs,macedonians,croats,albanian,bosnians,slovenians etc. we are all just people and we should put a stop to this nonsence.
