Well, Kosta, it looks like over 55% of the people actually living in Montenegro disagree with you

Hitler was also a product of a democratic election.

Wow. No wonder the Montenegrins wanted to get away.

You left out the other half which explains why they didn't.

Foreigners didn't vote yesterday. It was the people of Montenegro who chose independence

Actually, Montenegrins didn't win. Some Montenergings (a minority) with ethnic Albanians, Croats, and Bosnian Muslims, did. No matter how you turn it around -- the foreign, anti-Serb minorities there tipped the scale.

the foreign, anti-Serb minorities

And therein is the problem. The people you are referring to are citizens, not "foreign". And does wanting to be left alone to run their own affairs make them "anti-Serb"? Albanians, Croats, and Slavic Muslims have lived in Montenegro for centuries. Yet to you--a Serb--they are "foreign." Kosta, have you ever considered that perhaps that attitude is a reason why the Serbs have had problems with all their neighbors from the former Yugoslavia, Slav or non-Slav, Christian or non-Christian?

The minority groups helped win. The majority is Montenegrins. They had the votes. I hear Voyvodina is also looking for Independance. Any truth in this. If so what happens to Serbia after Kosovo and Voyvodina leave. You think Romania may want to get together after all the danube river crosses both of these lands. Hungary may be interested to. They make good Hungarian Goulash.
