Might have something to do with the meddling the UN and NATO have done in that region over the past decade, no?

That whole region is soooo beautiful, and yet so embattled.

Concert Pix are Here — Yayyyyy! Posted by Julia under Republican Riot The Nazi rock concert was held in Croatia’s biggest stadium, Maksimir, and although this time Thompson himself did not make any pro-Ustasha references or Hitler-style salutes, the kids sure did. (Thanks to a website titled Lupiga.com)

Her T shirt shows a picture of war criminal Ante Gotovina and says, "A thick fog will descend again" from a WWII Nazi Ustashi song that says:

A dense fog descended on Zagreb, It was no dense fog above Zagreb, It was the brave army of the Poglavnik (the “Fuehrer”, Croatian President Ante Pavelic). Poglavnik, gather up the army, And lead it to bloody battle to Drina (border between Bosnia and Serbia). Poglavnik gave them the name, brave Ustashe, That is the army defending our homes. A dense fog descended on Kupres (majority-Serb Herzegovina town which the Black Legion terrorized in the ’40s), It was no dense fog above Kupres. Their leader was knightly Boban, a real Ustasha (Black Legion commander Rafael Boban). Under the mosque he shouts, a brave Ustasha. (Probably a reference to the Bosnian Muslims who served in the Black Legion.) Poglavnik named them the Black Legion. It was a brave army, the Black Legion.

And the best part......

This is Miomir Zuzul , former Croatian Foreign Minister and Ambassador to the US and UN and his family at this fascist lovefest!

All from Julia Gorin's Republican Riot

Bokababe,
Why does this guy call himself “Thompson”? Not a very Croatian name. I’m rather insulted because it happens to be my family name and I don’t like being associated with Neo-Nazi scum.

Clinton’s Balkan policy was a shame upon America and I am very angry with Bush for continuing it. The Serbs were unfairly demonized IMHO.

Another Julia Gorin column...

... that means half of it is wrong, and the other half is filled with hysterical exaggerations. Some writers just get too emotionally involved.

She hasn’t manged to write one objective column yet, why start now.

Racism is a problem across Europe.

If you want to see racist displays in the former Yugoslavia, you can always go to a Serbian soccer game:

Here is a video with Serb fans dressed up like Ku Klux Klansman and waving the Stars and Bars:

Here are articles about very recent racist acts at soccer games by Serbs:

So, apparently the Croats aren’t the only ones with a problem.

Good grief.

Look, the Euros can do whatever they want to, but it's apparent to me that the political direction of just about every European country is borderline nuthead.

We can continue to peacefully live with whatever they decide to do, but I just hope that we still have the original Cold War plans to blow them flying through the air like rag dolls on fire if it ever becomes necessary.

Nazis, Communists, their tactics are the same as every other tyrannical movement in history...prey on the young, ignorant, uneducated, etc. to gain followers. Very sad to see so many young people fall into the trap.

See, hard core elements in Croatia still go back to the days of World War II; I found this story of not that long ago, where there fans made a “human swastika.”

Reminds me of those that are following the myth of Che Guevarra. The commies (International ANSWER) are selling him big time here in Los Angeles. I’ve seen t-shirts, flags, and windo decals. I’ve asked someone sporting Che to explain him and was told, “He’s everything to me.” and “He was a freedom fighter.”

I believe it is a crime to make Fascist Salutes in Germany;

Yet, that whole crowd was making them in that one photograph.

So many of the old Axis powers was also the old Austro-Hungarian empire with countries like Slovakia and Hungary. As much as I think the Soviet Union repressed democracy in Hungary in the 1950s and I don’t mean to cast stones at anyone, that country was still a part of that empire.

Germany is watched too closely to give an easy resurrection to the old Nazism, though surely, it is there to an extent with your Skinheads and such.

Croatia seems very far away from the main of Europe and somewhat remote as does a lot of the former Yugoslavia; so it is something to be weary of especially, when that prominent family showed up for the concert.

But as for those deriding the church, I categorically do not do that; so much has been written both for and against such involvement. That would take much research.
