. . . and raised the first banner of large-scale resistance in all of Europe.

I think the Poles got there much earlier.

Convicted Nazi war criminal John Demjanjuk was a Serb.

Go figure.

No, he was a Ukrainian. "Demjanjuk" is not a Serbian name.

One of the first books on Mikhailovich and the Chetniks is the late David Martin’s “Ally Betrayed”, published about 1947. Dave was also one of the creators of the committee that put up a statue to Mik in Wash. D.C. and to honor his and his forces for rescuing and repatriating over 400 Allied downed fliers, mainly Americans.

Time to correct the record.

Court records from both the US and Israel say he was a Serb national, regardless of last name.

Heck, “Hitler” is a Bohemian/Czech last name, for that matter.

The Serbs gave us Slobodon Milosevic and Dennis Kucinich, they’re no saints, either....but they always make themselves out to be such heroes.

HAHAHAHA!

Wrong on all counts. Bizarre history.
"Demjanjuk" is Ukrainian.
"Hitler" is German.
"Kucinich" is Croatian.

Hitler was born in Austria, where he was wildly greeted during the Angschluss. My late friend saw it first hand and said that even the churches has greeting banners out for him.

Schicklgruber was German, when daddy nmade an honest woman out of mommy he took his BOHEMIAN last name of “Hiedler”, which was Germanicized by the Austro-Hungarian government to “Hitler”

Dennis Kucinich himself has claimed Serb nationality.

Get over yourself. All those piss-ant little Balkan countries have been troublemakers for centuries. Its like the Hatfields and McCoys over there.

I'm not an expert on Demjanjuk, but from what I've read, he was born in Ukraine i n 1920. At the time, Serbia didn't exist as an independent nation, but was part of Yugoslavia. Perhaps he somehow got Serbian citizenship after Serbia re-emerged in the 1990's.

Heck, “Hitler” is a Bohemian/Czech last name, for that matter.

No, Hitler is a German name. It may be related to Hütte (shack) or hüten (to guard).

The Serbs gave us Slobodan Milosevic and Dennis Kucinich, they’re no saints, either....but they always make themselves out to be such heroes.

The Serbs also gave us Pljeskavica (Serbian ground beef) What's your beef against the Serbs?

Excellent write up.

For me, Serbia is the best modern example of a freedom loving people betrayed by those they sacrificed to support in the war on human liberty by the Socialist (Marxist, Communist, Fascist, DemoRat, all the same).

Always brought down with False Witness demonization by Socialist stooge "journalists" of the Main Stream Media, these courageous people and peoples, are then stabbed in the back by the ignorant at the behest of the Socialist.

Curse the Communist DemoRat liars and their schemes.

"Hiedler" does not sound at all like a Slavic name, but it sounds very German.

David Martin was a tireless defender of Draža Mihailović for many years. George Putnam, an early conservative talk radio host, had him on his show in the late 1970's.

"...one of the creators of the committee that put up a statue to Mik in Wash. D.C...."

MadMax, unfortunately the statue honoring General Mihailovich, that the American airmen yearned for, never came to fruition. Due to pressure from various "groups" - the usual suspects - the final "approval" was never granted. I still hold out hope that the effort can be revived, even though most of the airmen are now gone, and that their descendants will see that dream become a reality.

You obviously know NOTHING about the languages of the ethnic groups you discuss. Hiedler is a GERMAN name. No Slavic language would have such a name. The family may well have gone to an Austrian town in Bohemia, that HARDLY makes them Czech. Put on the dunce cap and go to the corner, idiot. http://www.houseofnames.com/hiedler-family-crest Kučinić is Croatian. Always has been, always will be. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Kucinich

Hitler grew up in Braunau am Inn (Braunau on the Inn river), Austria. However, there’s also a Braunau in Böhmen (Braunau in Bohemia), in the Czech Republic, which the Czechs call Brounov. Many mistakenly thought that Hitler hailed from the Braunau in Bohemia, including German President Paul von Hindenburg, who dubbed Hitler “the Bohemian corporal.”

In that case I stand corrected.

I was actually going off of Trevor-Roper’s biography of Schicklgruber, which I’ve found out has been pretty much discredited over the years.

My bad.

If you're looking for a good biography on Hitler, Ian Kershaw's 1000+-page doorstop Hitler: a Biography (New York: Norton, 2010) has won critical acclaim and has been enthusiastically endorsed by Richard J. Evans, a top Hitler scholar. Evans has also written a couple of good books on the Nazi party.
