Polt visited children's camp on Mt. Tara July 24th where 200 war orphans spend summer vacation.

His message was to the effect of the words that Serbs are violent and that new generation has to grow up to become different and rectify the wrongs of the past. Children who lost their parents in the war!

Imagine Chicom Ambassador visiting summer camp and lecturting American children what Americans are.

Sadly, Serbian MFA whitewashed the incident and reported like this:

POLT, DAVINIC VISIT SCHOOL OF FRIENDSHIP ON MT TARA

MT TARA, July 24 (Tanjug) - US Ambassador to Serbia-Montenegro Michael Polt and Serbia-Montenegro Defence Minister Prvoslav Davinic on Sunday visited the Children's Camp on Mt Tara, where about 200 children who had lost one or both parents in the latest wars are staying.

Addressing the children, Polt said that he was glad to see the spirit of positive patriotism in the School of Friendship, which has been organised for five consecutive years by the Our Serbia humanitarian NGO from Belgrade. This is a guarantee of better future not only of these children and this country, but also of the entire world, Polt said.

The School of Friendship is attended by about 200 participants from Serbia-Montenegro, Republika Srpska, Serb enclaves in Kosovo-Metohija and about 20 children from the diaspora - Slovenia, US,

Well did the Serbs stick up for themselves (I'm talking especially about the adult supervisors and counselors) and argue against him - or are they all acting the doormat?

In the photo, the kids are nonetheless smiling.

I wonder why he was permitted to come anyhow. They say people can only take advantage of you if you allow it - and the Serbs seem to just take it sometimes.

He was outnumbered, they could have said something about U.S. actions maiming and killing Serb children and supporting head cutters. What would he do then, the fatso?
