I wonder when Serbia will pass Albania as the country with the lowest per capita income in Europe? That seems to be its goal.

It certainly does seem the goal of the Clintonista HumWarriors and their Jihadists associates.

1st and foremost the terrorist group "Zemun klan" needs to be either caught or eliminated. I prefer and expect the latter. Don't think the loose special forces are into surrendering, so a massacre is probable. If Legija & other commanders of the group find their way out from Serbia just like Zeljko Maksimovic - Maka (the organizer of eliminating Mr. Buha - the chief police officer) is believed to found sanctuary in Spain, than it is fair to look into foreign conspiracies. But before we go there, Serbian army and police with all means needs to promptly eliminate this group and set standard for future terrorists! Go and get them boys!

So, Vooch, are you fishing for similarities like a hum warrior between Slobo the communist and Djindjich the philosopher (hence the PhD was in Marxism)???
Here's one difference; fact: Djindjic was jailed by the great communist Josip "Tito" Broz in 1974 for attempting to organise an independent student union. Slobo thrived in Tito's communism.

According to B92 radio (a min. ago), 40 terrorists caught (probably insignificant). 160 to go!

Smoke, are they all in route to Republika Srpska?

You are making an assumption, fortunately, reality betrays you.

>>>>>I believe that Djindjich is a colateral damage of the brutal Western policy against Serbia.It is beyond belief thast some people in the West thought that some people,so deeply involved in organized crime and state politics,and so well armed and with so much to lose,will go peacefully to jail???<<<<

Isn't it like the playing domino effect? You first arrange dominoes, and in convenient moment, only have to push one. Then, watch them do the job by themselves.

The result?

Serbia with no president, no PM, no constitution, no money, "shocked and awed" population, paralysed at the right moment.

It is not important who pulled the triggers. What matters is who gained.

Both Serbian Government and NATO were swift to blame "criminals" for assasination. Why jumping to the conclusion before investigation is done?

The conclusion should be left to Serbian Warren Commision, of course.

Hague demanded more and more,and more....

I think that's the reason for yesterday's assassination. Just in the past week Djindjic' gov't announced that it would take steps to capture Gen. Mladic, that Col. Sljivancanin would be sent to the ICTY, and that it had been asked to cooperate in sanctions against Karadzic designed to aid his capture. In addition, there's talk that Legija and other Red Berets would be arrested and extradited to the ICTY. delPonte just wouldn't let it rest, despite Djindjic and others warning that the escalating demands put them in a politically impossible position.

Somehow, I doubt there'll be any more extraditions.

Gael I think there are so many people who would have liked to kill Djindjic. Your theory is closer to mark then any other I have read on this site. Djindjic was doing DelPonte's dirty work and he paid for it. The economy is just surviving and the people are screaming when will it get better as Djindjic promised. Unfortunately for Djindjic his promises to the people were promises the West gave to him but never eventuated.

Clearing out the Mafia won't make things better for this country in terms of economic growth, there just is no money and when the people realise this they can get back to reality. Djindjic enjoyed so much of that foreign money for himself that it doesn't make me sorry he is gone except it would've been better if he went out from the ballot box instead of a bullet.

I hear (live radio) Frankie Simatovich and Jovitsa Stanishich are under interrogation. Seems that the video tape shown during Captain Dragan's testimony in Hague sealed Dj.'s destiny as far as Legiya was concerned.

Ironic how Dushan Mihailovich just a couple of weeks ago praised Legiya as loyal citizen and was "surprised" that media tried to link him with the 1st assassination attempt.

Yours is the first post I noticed making the connection between increased sounds, the last several days, about tightening up on finding Mladic and the assassination of Djindjic.

I always saw Dj. as being "pro"-West in the same sense as a vassal prince would have "allegiance", in other words not (as assumed in the USA) a compliment to his integrity. He was the agent of the West's directives (after the $100 million campaign funding for anti-Milo groups IN THE ELECTIONS CALLED BY MILOSHEVICH).

ANyonwe remember when he complained that after betraying Miloshevich to the anti-Serb "court" in the Netherlands that his administration was awarded $300 million, of which $225 million was immediately taken back as interest on loans? That's how being pro-West helped.

That goes without saying. The question is: why didn't Djindjich do that earlier? His alleged connections with cigarette smuggling and other underground elements raised a lot of doubts. His knack for "stretching" the law and even going against constitutional courts is well documented. The "little Slobo" was involved in such activities as undermining elections (democratic process) by refusing to correct flawed voter lists, thereby counting the dead, the exiled and the emigrated. He also held on to the Miloshevich-era constiution because it gave him more power, and certainly refused to change the 50% electoral law, and simply threw out DSS members out of the Parliaament in clear violation of the coalition agreement. Because of him, Serbs live economically worse off now then they did before and now they have an unlimited police state on his account.

I have nothing nice to say about that scumbag, Tamodaleko. He surrounded himself with treasounous scumbags and underworld figures and other "pragmatic" characters who, at the opportune moment, "pragmatically" took him out.
