I said exactly what I meant: I am not surprised that Israeli Jews have snubed a man who saved many Jews. This has happened before and will continue to happen.

“Do you know about the lawsuit against the Vatican Bank filed by the victims (and their families) of the WWII genocide of Serbs, Jews and Gypsies in the Independent State of Croatia?”

Yes, I have read about such lawsuits. I don’t expect it to go anywhere. I also know that no lawsuit about money or genocide has in any way implicated Cardinal Stepinac in any criminal or sinful behavior.

When the ‘90s Balkans wars were raging, I read about 21 books on it. There is no clear cut answer and I’ve seen arguements over all of this, often between the Serbs and Croats themselves and I feel it is better to just stay clear of such arguments; however clearly the initial story concerning this concert demonstrates this event is shameful and repugnant and it should be covered in the Mainstream Media.

One thing that is interesting, is that when one is speaking of soccer games, the two sides of fans Croats and Serbs have been accused of much the same thing.

I also know that incidences, not necessarily racist but of fan misconduct have occurred in basketball games too (some where on one of those video sites they have such film footage).

Back to the story, thank goodness The Jerusalem Post does have a story on it and other victims of the Axis powers should follow suit.

(excerpt)

“Thousands of people attending the rock concert by the singer “Thompson” shouted the infamous Ustasha regime’s salute of “Za dom spremni,” while numerous participants came wearing Ustasha uniforms and symbols, the center said in a press release.”

You know, the Sieg Heil in the photo in this instance is probably worst; but it does remind me of something else I’ve never liked either, is when at some Metal Bands concerts I guess, they do their hand and I suppose that is like a symbol of the Devil; you know the one that also looks like “Hook ‘em Horns”; I’m not up on all of this symbolism.
