A Bosnian Serb may prevent “Palestine”…

...Or at least prevent the Security Council from voting to confer statehood status on the Palestinians, thereby preventing a potentially embarrassing U.S. veto.

AP's Aida Cerkez reports that the triumvirate that constitutes Bosnia's presidency -- a Croat, a Serb and a Muslim -- cannot come to terms on whether to vote for statehood on the Security Council.

Palestinians say they have eight votes, just one short of the nine out of 15 majority needed to pass, and then trigger a U.S. veto.

Such votes requires a consensus among the three-person presidency; the Muslim favors Palestinian statehood; the Croat is unsure; and the Serb is against. So no vote.

Dzenan Selimbegovic, an adviser to the three-member presidency, said Monday that because the trio still disagrees on the issue, there is no official stand and the chance of someone changing his mind is "theoretical."

"Officially the presidency has no position and if there is no position then the Bosnian ambassador to the U.N. has no position," he told The Associated Press.

Serbs, traditionally, have been pro-Israel, dating to the Jewish-Serbian alliance among anti-Nazi partisans.

Except, of course, that the Serbian government at the time was the pro-Nazi government of prime minister Milan Nedic.

And then afterwards there was the Tito government, which helped found the anti-Israel Nonaligned Movement.

And after that there was the Milosevic government, which allied itself with Iran.

Since then, the Serbian government has been fairly supportive of Israel - so we can say this ancient tradition of Serbian support for Israel dates all the way back to 2000.

“Serbian” govt. was not recognized, not even by the Serbs. It hade no influence, and Serbs had no respect for it.

That's the French rhetoric when it comes to Vichy. Nedic was prime minister for three years and commanded the loyalty of many Serbs.

Even today the remnants of the SLP continue the effort to rehabilitate him.

Like it or not, he is an important part of Serbia's history.

The one opposed by the Serbian people, you mean.

Very telling of you to be so misleading on that point.

Again, one could just as easily claim that the Vichy government was "opposed to the French people" - despite the fact that it was a French organization staffed by Frenchmen and followed by a large percentage of the French.

The Nedic government was the Serbian Vichy, and like Vichy does for French history, Nedic complicates the hypernationalistic revisionism promoted by FR's Serb lobby.

Let's be honest: Radmanovic is not motivated by some high-minded, selfless regard for the people of Israel - he is against whatever Izetbegovic is for. That's fine, if I were him I would be too. There's no need to invent a mythical alternate history of Serbian advocacy for Israel.

So using your logic, as an American, you must be a dedicated supporter of the 0bama Administration.

That's an illogical conclusion.

The conclusion my logic leads to is this: that future generations of Americans will have to acknowledge that the American people elected Obama and that millions of Americans wholeheartedly supported him and his administration.

If 70 years from now some American patriot claims: "No American really supported Obama. He had no popular backing. He kind of just magically came into existence and disappeared again without a trace" - well, that individual would be dishonest and distorting history.

Obama's election is a black mark on this nation's history. It is an unpleasant fact, but it is still a fact and no amount of mythmaking can erase it.

Yeah, don't let "a few little facts" get in the way of telling your sorry little revisionist fable. Facts like:

1. The Serbs even overthrew their own monarch, Prince Paul, for trying to make a deal with the Germans that would have allowed Yugoslavia to be used as a pass-through to Greece without being occupied

2. Or that Germany nearly bombed Belgrade to the ground for four days during Easter week 1941 to punish them for rejecting that deal

3. Or that Yugoslavia had to be invaded from all sides with forces from Germany, Bulgaria and Hungary in order even occupy the place and put Nedic in power

4. Or that even after Germany occupied Serbia, Serbs risked life & limb to save 500 downed American flyers

So tell your pathetic little revisionist tales to your heart's content. Because once your words are established as having no relation to the truth, those words will fall on deaf ears, to all but the really stupid.

It seems that Kitman Boy never heard of the Kragujevac Massacre. Or even worse, he knowns all about it, and wants us all to forget it and buy his Serbophobic lies:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kragujevac_massacre

There was even a poem written by Desanka Maksimovic about the children who were murdered in the massacre:

Holy Serbian New Martyrs of World War II pray for us!!!!

You sound like an Ustasa propaganda lackey, which method of murder did you prefer, the Srbosjek or a hammer to the skull?

I love you revisionists, so easy to pick apart and too stupid to realize it when it happens.

Bokababe,

Wideawake is one of those perpetual bullshit artists, his posting history reflects this, a few glaring facts and the miserable louse goes away.

Wiki actually does a reasonably good job on the hitorical basics of the history of Jews in Serbia.

But there were also the defeated Croat, Bosnian Muslim and Albanian fascists post-war, who fought on the Arab side against the establishment of Israel -- so it's no surprise that the Bosnian Muslims would today be supporting the Palestinians.
