It was the Jasenovac museum the Croats attacked, not the memorial:

He [New York Times reporter Chris Hedges] falsely asserts that Croatian Serbs "trashed the small Museum in Jasenovac." In fact, the Jasenovac Museum was destroyed by departing Croatian troops who captu res the area briefly in September of 1991, according to accounts in the London " Independent", the Washington "Times" and a documentary film by Michael Ignatieff .

Ahhh... right right. It's been so long that I had been ticked off by that event that I forgot what it was called.

By the way, thank you for posting that picture. Assisting the the construction of that memorial took a fairly sizeable chunk of my life. They were just finishing the design when I left; I hadn't seen what it looked like when finished.

Nothing makes RBJ run any faster than a fact that he can't distort!

Cowboy Down.

RIP - until he remembers his login for the Alternate Discourse account.

[FormerLib]

And we see once again that the only way the Muhammedan cheerleaders can win an arguement is by silencing the truth from the other side.

[Hoplite]

Hey sport - when we get around to reimposing trade sanctions on Serbia next year for protecting one of your heroes, Ratko Mladic, will we see you referring the the current US Government as "Muhammedan cheerleaders"?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[FormerLib]

Ratko Mladic is no hero of mine. Only a Muhammedan cheerleader would state otherwise in the hope of distorting their own stance.

And you will be pleasantly surprised as to what will be happening between the US and Serbia soon enough! (HINT: you are NOT going to like it!)

[Hoplite]

Oh do tell.

[FormerLib]

LOL! Guess you missed the part about Serb troops will be assisting US forces in our war against terrorism? Yeah, we're finally admitting that we and the Serbs have been fighting the same guys for some time.

[Hoplite]

Wow - I had no idea.
Can you say: "Sarcasm"?
I wonder why nobody posted anything about that here on FR?
I knew you could!

Hey sport - when we get around to reimposing trade sanctions on Serbia next year for protecting one of your heroes...

Serbia's economy genuinely did better under trade sanctions and Milosevic than it is doing now under the U.S.-installed puppet government. Serbia, with the Milosevic government in power, also did a tremendous amount of reconstruction.

[Hoplite]

Yeah, and Zimbabwe is doing just fine too.

Pray tell, upon what data are you basing your comments?

[Ronly Bonly Jones]

They're gathering a unit of Serb infantry to help patrol the streets of Iraq. About 1000.

It's the only unit to deploy into the Middle East where every member must undergo a background check to make sure that they didn't commit GENOCIDE during their last deployment.

Boy. I'd LOVE to be a member of an ethnic group where that was a requirement. Wheee.

[Ronly Bonly Jones]

How did he manage it? His last comments were almost innocuous. Did he try to post another severed-head photo or something?

[Ronly Bonly Jones]

Nothing makes me run. I simply have a life and occasionally go and enjoy it away from FR. Unlike some people I could name.

[FormerLib]

...some people I could name.

Good ol' RBJ! Wrong as always!

[Hoplite]

How did he manage it?

Alas, all I could offer would be conjecture - though I think it had something to do with two weasels, a jar of Smucker's Jam, and a '72 Ford Pinto.
