I am in total agreement - what a totally misleading and loaded title! Saying that he would 'bring down Serbia' which is a highly unlikely thing for Kostunica to say, is totally different to vowing to "topple Djindjic's government".

Not so long ago Kostunica also said that it would be healthy for the coalition, formed just after the bombing of Serbia by Nato, to split and form opposition parties. You can't have democracy without a strong opposition was what Kostunica said at the time, and I thought that it was a pity his message couldn't be heard in other countries (such as the UK where the opposition is about as effective as heavy rain at the moment).

How careless the 'free press' seem to be when twisting a story's entire meaning.

Strange thing is that this article appeared under another title: Yugoslav Party to Protest Annulment
By DUSAN STOJANOVIC
Associated Press Writer

This article appeared first and then the one about "toppling Serbia" appeared later...it is a classic case of propaganda...the second version has been altered to put Kostunica in a very bad light. I can post the first "version" if anyone is interested.
