The Croatian nationalist "agenda" started with Ante Starcevic (pron. Anteh Starchevich), and his party of Rights (Prava) whose members are known as the Rightists (no pun intended), or Pravashi, founded in the second half of the 19th century. The party is still alive and well in Croatia.
Since most of you are not familiar with the "work" of a man, in today's Croatia officially known as the "Father of the Nation," perhaps a short introduction into his "agenda" will clarify what we are dealing with. Ante Starecevic (1869):
"[Serbs] are the race of slaves, beasts worse than ever. There are three levels of perfection: that of the animal, that of comprehension, and that of reason. Slavo-Serbs have not quite reached the first level, and cannot rise above it. They have no conscience, they don't know to read as humans, they are not teachable..."
It should be pointed out that at the time he wrote this, there has been no conflict between Serbs and Croats, no genocidal warfare, no atrocities. They lived next to each other in diferent social strata. To create such a monstrous "philosophy" bears witness to a pathological hatred that is absolutely disproportionate to the offense, whatever that may have been. It is a genocidal, racist credo borne out of plain jealousy carried to an extreme.
Unfortunately, in Croatia, such pahtological way of thinking is seen in successive generations. In addition to Starcevic, the second Croatian national hero is Josip Frank (pron. Yosip Frunk), the 20th century flagbearer of geocidal Serbophobia.
The successor to these was none other than Ante Pavelic (pron. Pavelich), the leader of the so-called Independent State of Croatia, in 1941, an ally of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, who made genocide against Serbs, Jews and Gypsies official policy. In the case of Serbs, a "final solution" was defined as the program consisting of exterminating 1/3, converting to Roman Catholicism of 1/3 and expelling 1/3 of all Serbs (about 20% of the population). The first part was carried on in some 2 dozen concentration camps set up by the regime.
Today, Pavelic is revered as the hero of the nation, the one who gave Croatia its long-sought independence, which in itself is an oxymoron.
The spirit of Starcevic, Frank and Pavelic exist to this day in Croatia, represented in different levels of the Croatian society and politics, as well as in the Ustasha, Rightist, and Frankish parties.
Consistent with their "philosophy," their supporters will stoop to such symbolic gestures as to spell "Serb" with a lower-case letter "s," because anything else would be "elevating" those "who cannot read as humans" to a level of humanity.
With an openly anti-Serb Washington policy in the last dozen or so years, Croatian nationalists enjoyed an "open season" with their Serbophobic thinking. They have not yet recovered fully from the post-climactic oblivion of expelling almost the remainder of the Serb population of Croatia (which is now at about 4% after some have actually returned!), and with the aid and blessing of their friends in Washington.
So, it is natural that they have come to believe that Serbophobia is their "right" as much as it is their way of life.
There is one funny thing about that intellectual monster,Starscevich:his mother was a Serb!I have read it a few times but,at the moment,I don`t have a particular data.Can anyone confirm this(or deny)?I believe that it is true.I`ll do some research later.
Anyway,if it is true it fits the profile:Hitler(allegedly) had some Jewish blood...J.E. Hoover hated homosexuals with vengance,during office ours.In the evening,at home,he used to dress like woman and sleep with his lifetime buttler!
In any case,I hope that your contribution to this thread will be appreciated as it deserves.
But,don`t expect that this SuperPrkno Hercegovacko will,or that he will understand.
It must be that he has some Ser....oooooops!I mean,serbian blood.I almost made a spelling mistake,again!LOOOOOOOOL!
After all,serbs are "unteachable",nesce pais?
So is our Toronto Ustasha.
BTW,whwre is our poster,UtahGirl?It looks like she doesn`t like the way this discussion is going.Or she thinks that article is true!?
