yah, you could add for Arkan's moto "defending our serb brothers, till the last deutsche mark or american dollar we could gain". Arkan was hiding behind stories of patriotism so he could smuggle gas, wood, plunder houses etc. Notorious criminal he was before and during the war, so he could become a "bussinesman and politician" after the war. Authorities of Krajina forced him to get out of Krajina because of his "patriotism". In return, when Krajina was cleansed from Serbs in 1995 and people ended up in Colone, he and his thugs were taking people out, torturing them in Erdut (now in Croatia), calling them traitors and cowards. That's Arkan, "serbian hero".
p.s. During 1980's when Yugoslav secret services were using yugoslav criminals of all nations, Arkan was receiving orders from Slovene Stane Dolanc. Arkan butchered few albanian criminals in western europe by his orders, and there are claims he killed former director of INA (Zagreb, Croatia) oil company, by orders of Stane Dolanc and all mighty UDBA. Irony is, serbian people suffered great deal of public relations slandering because of Arkan's image. How absurd!

You are in Beograd, but, not in Kosovo. Strange, Serbs need dire help in Kosovo. Yet, you pound away on the keyboards when you are a healthy male specimen. Don't mind my saying, but you don't care to get dirty nor walk at 0300am when it is 15C and raining, do you? Ne, it sucks, but has to be done at times to protect your garden.

I do not take kindly to traitors or of people who abandon their line when that action results in the death of innocent civilians.
While active duty Marine Corps, I despised the SOB who slept on guard duty where'd I fill their canteens with either sand or large amount of salt. No, I do not care for people who run or neglect their duty or standing orders. Loyalty is demanded from the military, unequivocal allegiance.
