Ratko Mladic Our Hero

When I was a child, I climbed up on a billboard to see our Heroes, Ratko Mladic, Karadzic, Arkan, and our solders heading for the firs line of fire. We waved flags and cheered. It was thrilling. I was proud that I could say, “I was there; I saw them.” I wonder what the people of Bethphage and Bethany thought as Jesus processed toward Jerusalem. It seems that their enthusiasm would quickly turn to disdain when he was captured, tried and put to death. Hero worship does not seem to enjoy a long shelf life.
Today when the excitement of the parade is over and the waving of the palms ceases, we should spend some time reflecting on the character of our heroes and specially those fallen in the war.
We should compare our suffering and hardship with the same of early Christians and Jesus. We don’t usually think of Jesus as a hero, but hero he is. We should try to understand why a week of betrayal and denial, of mockery and bloodshed is called holy.
Some of them are a heroes, but not in the traditional pattern of heroism. They actually looks more like a victim. They are not triumphant as we understand triumph. Instead they appears to be a failure. Judging by one set of standards—standards not unlike those of many people of his day— they have not met our expectations. But according to another standard—the standard of unconditional love—they have far surpassed our expectations.
But more than anybody else we should always remember those fallen in the first line of fire, those who had sacrificed their lives for us.

Croatia Catholic State

by Muhamed Filipovic
Croatian media in these days made sensational news that senior representatives of the Bishops' Conference of the Catholic Church at a special press conference sharply criticized the Croatian government and the entire state peak, including the Prime Minister Sanader and President Mesic of the Republic.
Critique is reportedly followed by inadequate policies, due to insufficient government fights for the rights of ordinary people and because of insufficient activity in the fight against recession. As the main cause of all these mistakes, the Catholic representatives stated the surviving spirit of communism in Croatia, which is still in the heads of many of the highest government officials.

My opinion is that Catholic clergy has two basic objectives . Firs is that they wants to be declared as a moral power which stands on the bumper of interests of poor, morality and justice, of course, hiding their relation and collaboration to all crimes and injustices that the President Tuđman government committed when a persecuted people, not only because of differences in political views, but primarily because of religious and national differences. All of this is the church worked to its traditional anticommunism, but in order to fast and complete restitution of huge assets the Catholic Church and its ranks.

At that time they didn't care about robbery, corruption, religious discrimination /not even now, against not Roman Catholics Now, when their property returned, became enormously rich, and when they secure their economic independence, while at the same time have a huge fiscal support of regime, they have remembered conscience, the poor and the "structures of sin", as if they are not part of the structure and it sometimes in the most difficult time of sin and a very active part. Did not care for the poor that is the subject of the concerns of the Bishops' Conference.
Another motive is fight against Islam, Russia and all those people who do not support idea of Holly Father, Sarkozy and Markel.
In this context, can understand and interpret all the huge effort of the Catholics in Croatia and Croatian nationalists and socolled Democrats to conduct an audit of 2nd World War II and from the forces he is cast antifascism Russia and all those who fought against fascism led by the communists. In this context, the statement of representatives of Bishops Conference renewed context and themes of influence of communism. No worries for the poor and the right, nor for ethics, but for the implementation of a strategic plan of creating a world led by a new Holy Alliance, which wants to re-divide the world, but can know that the world can not be shared without the war as a eficient mean of divisions among people.

Nick Hawton BBC Idiot.

.
How to call somebody who openly admits that don't know much about Balkans and in the same time write books and articles about the same subject?
"Idiot" was originally created to refer to "layman, person lacking professional skill", "person so mentally deficient as to be incapable of ordinary reasoning".^[6][7] Declining to take part in public life, such as democratic government of the polis (city state), such as the Athenian democracy, was considered dishonorable. "Idiots" were seen as having bad judgment in public and political matters. Over time, the term "idiot" shifted away from its original connotation of selfishness and came to refer to individuals with overall bad judgment–individuals who are "stupid". In modern English usage, the terms "idiot" and "idiocy" describe an extreme folly or stupidity, and its symptoms (foolish or stupid utterance or deed). In psychology, it is a historical term for the state or condition now called profound mental retardation.
So this is word we can really apply for this BBC journalist, by his own words.
