Torie won't like this, Noel Malcolm's book, is his bible.
Don't know about TENC, but someone posted here a map of Croatia, which is most certainly based on Communist sources.
Never saw you complain about that.
I did, but couldn't handle to stay with it.
Wonder if they would consider running the other sides documentary, "Yugoslavia the avoidable war,"........ don't think we will ever see that on main stream media.
Really? If it's so wrong, why has it been the most popular activity in Western media for the last 11 years?
The US is still supporting KLA terrorists to this day while claiming to be "fighting terrorism" - and that is a definite contradiction.
As for mass murder, that doesn't seem to bother anyone when the victims are Serbs.
But I am writing in regards to your remark where you blame Tito for the deaths of countless Serbs, Croats and muslims.
Do you REALLY think he somehow wronged Croatia, his own home republic? What did he exactly do that could even begin to compare to the stuff he did to Serbia/Serbs?
When will yet another xenophobic Serb-hating government take power in Croatia? Well, they will never be voted OUT of power: there's always a bunch of Serb haters in power in Zagreb. It's just that some are more anti-Serbian, some less. And that includes this joke of a PM - Rachan. I don't even wanna mention Mesich. He should be at the Hague, talking about how he killed Yugoslavia (and there are videos to prove it).
Anyway, there is no way you can present the KKK as being as much of a threat as Croatia's neo-Ustashe. As for their common ideology, I agree - they're absolutely the same.
[The Excerpt from Balkan Report Starts Here]
Views on Vidovdan [St Vitus day - June 28th]
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, or RFE/RL's Albanian-language broadcasters included in their 28 June programming reflections by several prominent individuals on Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's speech at Gazimestan. He gave that address ten years ago to mark the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Kosovo Polje.
Azem Vllasi, who is a former ethnic Albanian SKJ chief in Kosova, was in the infamous Mitrovica prison on Vidovdan 1989: In effect the war against the Albanians in Kosova had started 1988. Reprinted from Balkan Report, 2 July 1999, Volume 3, Number 26 (Translated by Fabian Schmidt, notes by Patrick Moore)

"Former ethnic Albanian SKJ chief", as in the Yugoslav League of Communists? Sounds like a good Communist source. Or rather a bad Communist, perhaps, since Azem Vlasi, like Tudjman, was imprisoned long before the fall of the SFRJ.
I've seen many articles posted here with these ex-Communists, like Racan and Mesic and other Yugo-traitors either interviewed or cited as sources.
Never saw you complain about them either.
I don't know how much complaints against RTV and TANJUG are justified in comparison to many other state broadcasters. Just look at what the RFE-RFL excerpt above, or just watch CNN.
But that said, I can't recall ever hearing anything on Serbian television or radio that could compare to the frenzied, salivating broadcast of absolutely racist hate propaganda punctuated by references to ethnic Serbs in Slavonija as "Communist-Chetnik-occupation collaborators" and so forth. Every three seconds in Zagreb one would turn on the TV and hear the Yugoslav Army referred to as "Chetnik-Communist-Occupation" forces, or better yet "Serbian-Chetnik-Communist-evildoer-occupation" forces. All this while the overwhelming majority of Croats still had one or all of the following in their homes: a Yugoslav passport, Yugoslav Army documents, Yugoslav Army weapons, or a Communist Party membership.
It got so bad most people could barely care to turn on TV Zagreb or read anything remotely linked to the state press agency, Hina.
Wasn't the Brotherhood-Unity Highway also a Communist Memorial? Why was that one renovated instead of ripped up?
