After the demolition of the Petrovaradin bridge, Novi Sad and Petrovaradin
were cut of water supply (600 000 citizens) since the main and city
pipeline was constructed into the bridge. About one million citizens, according to Yugoslav sources, are short of water. About 500 000 workers became jobless due to the total destruction of industrial facilities all around the country. Two million citizens have no means for living and cannot ensure the minimum for existence.
Overall material damage is enormous. Preliminary estimates indicate that NATO
air strikes have incurred damages in excess of 10 billion dollars. In the
territory of the northern province of Vojvodina alone, damages have been
estimated in excess of 3,5 billion dollars.

pre 14 godina

B92 i edited it myself, can you please write to me where there is anything that should be censored. thanks.

Trudsmaan, HB, Sin City...
Please you have ignored my whole post, and again started with the classic "FALSE ACCUSATION ASSUALT" the Croats and Muslims have so masterfully applied to in any political argument. First, I will answer your question, to be Serb means to go after the Truth, to fight for Freedom and Justice. We are the same right? Is that why muslims raped serbian women for 500 years, took every first born son back to turkey and impaled Serbian men with wooden stakes? Did Serbs rule over Muslims for 500 years and enslave them? Please stop saying we are the same, give me facts that show that we are the same. No we are not. On which side did croatia fight on in WWI? Serbia was alone surronded by enemies that NEVER knew what justice, freedom and truth meant, those enemies were Bulgaria, Muslim Bosnia, Albanians from Kosovo and Albania, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, all these countries fought joyfully in WWI and they LOST. So STOP saying we are the same when you have no historical facts to show they are same. STOP dodging my posts and answer me. I have answered you repeatedly with FACTS, not accusatory statements. I haven't accused of anything except losing your Serbian spirit, which is apparent because you are not seeking the TRUTH. I am not positined on any one side, in fact it is safe to say I hate serbia sometimes for letting that dumb CROAT leader Tito ruin our beautiful Serbia, and punish my grandfather and father. So, if anything a big part of me resents serbia for embracing a croatian leader that killed so many serbs, those are facts!!!!!!!!!! not false accusations.
Watch this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USzvU7l9_3E

when you are done, if you can stomach it then tell me CROATS and SERBS are the same and I am an acupucnturist and chinese medicine doctor and work in big medical group and i can give you the number to good psychiatrist. We ARE NOT THE SAME. PERIOD. Historical facts prove this, not just my words.
Your house was bombed, but you survived so thank God for that. But, you don't get it CROATIA started a war Serbs never wanted. Here is proof

HB, exactly my point, your Croatian army has always been known as the worst of the worst, you are not soldiers and you never have been. You lived under Austrian rule and learned art while Serbs were fighting for their very existence for centuries under the cruelest oppression you couldn't even begin to imagine under ISLAM. That separated us. JNA never took dubrovnik cause it wasn't theres to take, they didn't want to take it...they were leading a defensive war, protecting the soverignty of YUGOSLAVIA. FACT.

SINCITY - did the vatican tell you that or did Germany? cause guess what all the world knows that there was never a referendem!!!!! that is why there was a war, bosnia declared itself an Islamic state and Serbs will never live under ISLAM again. Croatia took away the status of Serbs in the country and unilaterlly declared independence these are FACTS! that is why there was a war, and give me a break, young poor Serbs in Krajina fought your army that was supplied by Iran, Germany, and all the vatican countires and you still couldn't do anything until NATO and the US came in. What a great victory, you croats have always needed oppressive empires to fight on your behalf, austria-hungary, nazi germany, nato-US the most oppressive FACTS.

I challenge all three of you to dispute anything I just wrote.

I challenge all three of you especially trudsmaan to give me answers concerning these issues.

1. why is kosovo cleansed almost completely of serbs?

2. why is Krajina serbian land for centuries clean of serbs.

3. why is sarajevo completely empty of serbs?

why does serbia have 900,000 refugees?

while you are thinking here is more PROOF, something none of you guys have about the TRUTH.

Yes Taylor, the Serbs were always 'angelic' regarding their conduct in Yugoslavia's firey end ...... whatever ...

BTW, Croatia did hold a legitimate referendum, so did Slovenia and Bosnia and the majority democratically voted for independence which was allowed under the then Yugoslav constitution.

How about someone answer my Question.... Since we attacked Dubrovnik so aggressively, why didnt we take it? Answer: Because your so called JNA weren't good enough to take it. The Serb irregulars and the JNA never had the heart to fight as they were fighting without a cause. It;s only the Serbs who think that Slovenia, Croatia, BiH, Montenegro & Kosova broke away illegally. It appears the Serbs are always right while others are constantly wrong. It's no wonder the Serbs have trouble being accepted by the Balkan region.

hand grenades on children? shame on you, shame on you. Is that what mesic told you. Give me one factual event where hand grenades were thrown at children.
You think that because you can walk around Zagreb you are free? Why don't you try to tell them about the truth about what happened there, why don't you start an organization to help refugees get back what BELONGS to them, then you will see how much your croatian brothers love you.

Excuse me Taylor maybe I was a bit rash on the "hand-grenade" part, BUT snipers from mountain tops in Dubrovnik were in fact shooting un-armed civilians, many of them being children. And dont try to deny this; I have no reason to be Anti-Serb or Pro-Croat, I see us as ONE anyway. The facts remain, the extremists have tainted our image, and theirs.

Do you think the Croats do not know the truth? Beleive me they do, most just choose to ignore the facts, kinda like some of us... See the similarities between us brothers and sisters?

Everytime I vacation in Croatia and speak humble political with the locals, I am always told the same thing; What happened to Yugoslavia? "We used to love the Serbs vacaitoning here, what happened? now we have Westerners taking over.

Must I be blunt with you? My Serbian home was bombed in Dubrovnik, aswell as the whole neighbourhood it resided in. War is WAR... bottome line. The Croats are not angels either, you have PURPOSELY misunderstood me. They have initiated the whole situation in the first place BUT the people are innocent, they fell victim to the whole devastation. Beleive me I have done my research more than you can ever know... the difference between me and you is that YOU choose sides, I dont simply because we are slices cut from the same bread.

To claim I am not Serb is something of pure ignorance on your part. What is it to be a Serb ? (answer if you can)...

Remember one thing brother; Whatever it is you have to say against the Croats, the Croats have just the same amount to say about us.

I have learned this the hard-way. Once upon a time I was a "nationalist" and didn't want my people to claim responsibilty for anything. Now I know better, I know now it wasn't up to the people at all. We were all just pawns. When the war started in Croatia, the Croatians couldnt beleive it was happening, and righfully so... How can Yugoslavia bomb itself?

So please taylor... re-read my posts, with an open heart. I only speak good about our people, the Serbs were the first to realise the fatal mistake, then the Croats and then the Bosnians.

I lived in Sibenik. My neighbors as well as myself almost died from the Serb shelling. After the battle, we managed to escape with only our theatre blown up and the bridge destroyed. Not "bad" compared to what happened elsewhere.

My mother's family was from the area of Drnis. I say was because they were forced out by Serbian paramilitaries for the sole reason they were Croats. My uncle has returned and is trying to live in the area again.

Same with family friends from Kijevo, and countless others from Plitvice, Karlovac, Vrlika, Cetina area, Banovina, etc.

Please get it out of your head that there are only one set of victims. Everyone from the war is a victim. Everyone lost something. The reason some Serb property gets vandalized is because these people are still living in the past and hurting from their losses. In some part of their mind, they feel Serbs deserve these attacks because of what they did to their own Catholic churches and family villages/homes.

Of course, you don't see it this way. But hopefully I gave you some idea from the other side. Let's learn to forgive as Christians, as I'm sure many are.

Truudsman,
what don't you understand? We never attacked Dubrovnik, croats attacked the Yugoslav navy...Croatia ILLEGALLY DECLARED INDEPENDENCE - what don't you understand about that? Are you serious? Yugoslavia had all rights to defend its territory from formation of military structures on it's soil. Just like US would do if texas or any other country would do that is why militaries are the most expensive sectors of any country's spending TO PROTECT ITSELF from people who declare independence on their own soil without a vote. Serbs never got to vote. How many people died in Dubrovnik? Please tell me? How can you be so foolish? DO you know that 82 bridges across SErbia were destroyed? 160 factories? 17 hospitals? do you want me to go on? And you cry for a few roof tiles in dubrovnik? why because it is on the sea and omg it is so beautiful so a few roofs are more valuable then a whole country's infrastructure ARE YOU SERIOUS! My friend you are lost but I don't blame you the world has taught you to hate yourself. Just as the world has taught the Jews to hate themselves. Most Serbs I know are so ashamed they would never say they are Serbs. Yet, Serbs are like no others in the world because no other people fought for freedom like the Serb and paid the heaviest price in history. That is a fact if you want evidence I can give you it all day and all night - just ask. Tell me something if your croatia is such a beautiful place then why did they make poor farmers walk on foot to bosnia. over 300,000 of them? Come on give me your Croatian answer? Was it because of the Serbian army that this happened, haha save it man. You don't get it, educate yourself with facts, not CNN and BBC. You still don't get it there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, just like there was no genocide and ethnic cleansing by Serbs of Croats, Muslims, ALbanians. If you are so democratic why don't you help Croatia to become multi-ethnic again? You live among the most racially pure states in the world. Why is Kosovo almost completely clean of Serbs? Why have 150 churches disappered in the last 5 years? Why is Sarajevo completley cleansed of Serbs? Please answer me these questions with facts not the same lies repeated over and over again milosevic's fault his plan for a greater Serbia. Name me one speech where Milosevic said anything bad about anyone and I will give you all the money in my bank account which is a lot...i can give you countless of examples of hate from Croatian leaders and Muslim and Albanian leaders. Give me some facts, you keep saying Serbs did this and attaked this and that, I need facts. You yourself hate your own or if you don't hate you think that by going along the fairytale story the croats and muslims and Kosovo Albanians made up that you will be some kind of hero? Please you look desparate because you have no facts, zero, like every westerner who talks about the balkans the repeat the same lies that were conjured up in PR offices in london and new york. Look around you Serbia has close to 900,000 refugees...how many do albanians have = zero. How many do croats have = zero. How many do muslims have?
When are the muslims going to give back 500 years of torture, murder and enslavement of Serbs? Or do you consider Islam a peaceful religion too and what they did to Serbs Serbs brought about themselves like the Krajina poor peasents who didn't even have a pair sneakers to their name.
Truudsman, you are not a Serb and the reason i say that is because if you were you would go after the truth at all costs. You don't you live in the same fairytale accusatory world as muslims, croats, and albanians, but don't worry we are fighting hard here in the US, Australia, China and the world to show what really happened. We have the Evangelical church backing we are making movies, documentaries, books, BASED ON FACTS - real facts. Not stories of pretend victims like your best buddies in dubrovnik.

And don;t undermine what happened in Dubrovnik, you say a few houses? Have you ever been there mate? I am a full blooded Serb, and I have seen the destruction my people have done to that beautiful area. And please when I go to Croatia in the summer-time, whether its Zagreb, Durbovnik or Split; I dont hide my nationality, most citizens there will know I am a Serb, BUT they also know I wasn't the one throwing hand-grenades at children... You can make your excuses but the only danger here is the extremists, and you all know well how we also have extremists, So whats your point?

You cannot label a whole society based on a few individuals. We expect the same from them , right? You continue to say your open to tolerance and love, but by your statements I can see you are not.

HOw many people died during the Croatian provoke of the Yugoslav navy. The Dubrovnik case was analyzed completely and it was shown that CROATIAN military was firing upon Yugoslav navy from locations that were against Geneva War Conventions just like the Muslims did in Sarajevo.

It is the Spirit of Freedom, freedom from hate, from insecurity, from guilt, from the past.

Ok, let's say these were extremist thugs. You mean to tell me they speak for ALL Croatians? Both us Serbs and the Croatians have reasons to be angry at each other. I agree with what you say they have done to us, but do you remember what we did to defenseless Dubrovnik? I have a summer home in Dubrovnik and when I had to flee with my family from the war we couldnt understand how we could be attacking/bombing OURSELVES. We brought devastation to Dubrovnik, and in the end we didn't even take it; so what was the point. Dalmatia according to history is Serbian land.

And yes, beautiful Beograd has the spirit that will stay in the souls of all those who visit. The people are special with a specific charm and humbleness that no one can forget or let go of easily. There is something special in Beograd, something no one can put in words, one can go and experience this energy for themselves. So to you Taylor i say... share your charm and humbleness we are all guilty and must begin to face-ourselves not each-other, then and only then will there be peace amongst us brothers and sisters.

Judging, speculating, and concluding on such touchy events as this one before any evidence, is also a "crime". It's called attacking. No matter how subtle it may appear, it's still an attack, and it's very negative and counter productive on all levels. Give peace a chance--no one said that it was going to be easy. The people that did this act of hate should never be allowed to ruin the future of our children by "infecting' them--instead we should listen to our children, and make peace and reconciliation for them--if not for us.

Listen to the children--it's their future too.

The Serb irregulars and the JNA never had the heart to fight as they were fighting without a cause. It;s only the Serbs who think that Slovenia, Croatia, BiH, Montenegro & Kosova broke away illegally. It appears the Serbs are always right while others are constantly wrong.

were cut of water supply (600 000 citizens) since the main and city
pipeline was constructed into the bridge. About one million citizens, according to Yugoslav sources, are short of water. About 500 000 workers became jobless due to the total destruction of industrial facilities all around the country. Two million citizens have no means for living and cannot ensure the minimum for existence.
Overall material damage is enormous. Preliminary estimates indicate that NATO
air strikes have incurred damages in excess of 10 billion dollars. In the
territory of the northern province of Vojvodina alone, damages have been
estimated in excess of 3,5 billion dollars.

pre 14 godina

B92 i edited it myself, can you please write to me where there is anything that should be censored. thanks.

Trudsmaan, HB, Sin City...
Please you have ignored my whole post, and again started with the classic "FALSE ACCUSATION ASSUALT" the Croats and Muslims have so masterfully applied to in any political argument. First, I will answer your question, to be Serb means to go after the Truth, to fight for Freedom and Justice. We are the same right? Is that why muslims raped serbian women for 500 years, took every first born son back to turkey and impaled Serbian men with wooden stakes? Did Serbs rule over Muslims for 500 years and enslave them? Please stop saying we are the same, give me facts that show that we are the same. No we are not. On which side did croatia fight on in WWI? Serbia was alone surronded by enemies that NEVER knew what justice, freedom and truth meant, those enemies were Bulgaria, Muslim Bosnia, Albanians from Kosovo and Albania, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, all these countries fought joyfully in WWI and they LOST. So STOP saying we are the same when you have no historical facts to show they are same. STOP dodging my posts and answer me. I have answered you repeatedly with FACTS, not accusatory statements. I haven't accused of anything except losing your Serbian spirit, which is apparent because you are not seeking the TRUTH. I am not positined on any one side, in fact it is safe to say I hate serbia sometimes for letting that dumb CROAT leader Tito ruin our beautiful Serbia, and punish my grandfather and father. So, if anything a big part of me resents serbia for embracing a croatian leader that killed so many serbs, those are facts!!!!!!!!!! not false accusations.
Watch this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USzvU7l9_3E

when you are done, if you can stomach it then tell me CROATS and SERBS are the same and I am an acupucnturist and chinese medicine doctor and work in big medical group and i can give you the number to good psychiatrist. We ARE NOT THE SAME. PERIOD. Historical facts prove this, not just my words.
Your house was bombed, but you survived so thank God for that. But, you don't get it CROATIA started a war Serbs never wanted. Here is proof

HB, exactly my point, your Croatian army has always been known as the worst of the worst, you are not soldiers and you never have been. You lived under Austrian rule and learned art while Serbs were fighting for their very existence for centuries under the cruelest oppression you couldn't even begin to imagine under ISLAM. That separated us. JNA never took dubrovnik cause it wasn't theres to take, they didn't want to take it...they were leading a defensive war, protecting the soverignty of YUGOSLAVIA. FACT.

SINCITY - did the vatican tell you that or did Germany? cause guess what all the world knows that there was never a referendem!!!!! that is why there was a war, bosnia declared itself an Islamic state and Serbs will never live under ISLAM again. Croatia took away the status of Serbs in the country and unilaterlly declared independence these are FACTS! that is why there was a war, and give me a break, young poor Serbs in Krajina fought your army that was supplied by Iran, Germany, and all the vatican countires and you still couldn't do anything until NATO and the US came in. What a great victory, you croats have always needed oppressive empires to fight on your behalf, austria-hungary, nazi germany, nato-US the most oppressive FACTS.

I challenge all three of you to dispute anything I just wrote.

I challenge all three of you especially trudsmaan to give me answers concerning these issues.

1. why is kosovo cleansed almost completely of serbs?

2. why is Krajina serbian land for centuries clean of serbs.

3. why is sarajevo completely empty of serbs?

why does serbia have 900,000 refugees?

while you are thinking here is more PROOF, something none of you guys have about the TRUTH.

This is a political tactic. Most Croat citizens wouldn't dare to bring themselves this low. Then again, extremists are everywhere.

Political seems more logical than emotional.

Truudsman,
Almost daily proof, of why we were never brothers, we are not brothers, and why we will never be brothers. You see who harbors HATE. We SERBS don't carry that HATE, have you been to Belgrade, go see the spirit, it is unmatched anywhere in the world. It is the Spirit of Freedom, freedom from hate, from insecurity, from guilt, from the past.

We brought devastation in Dubrovnik? Huh? Speak for yourself- Croatia illegaly declared independence from Yugoslavia, without a referendem without the right of the people's votes counted! Texas did the same without a referendem the US military would have gutted Texas inside and out until it came back to the US. And destruction what destruction? A few houses? HOw many people died during the Croatian provoke of the Yugoslav navy. The Dubrovnik case was analyzed completely and it was shown that CROATIAN military was firing upon Yugoslav navy from locations that were against Geneva War Conventions just like the Muslims did in Sarajevo. Come on brate see through to the truth. We Serbs have never and will never start anything. It has always been and it always will be.

Ok, let's say these were extremist thugs. You mean to tell me they speak for ALL Croatians? Both us Serbs and the Croatians have reasons to be angry at each other. I agree with what you say they have done to us, but do you remember what we did to defenseless Dubrovnik? I have a summer home in Dubrovnik and when I had to flee with my family from the war we couldnt understand how we could be attacking/bombing OURSELVES. We brought devastation to Dubrovnik, and in the end we didn't even take it; so what was the point. Dalmatia according to history is Serbian land.

And yes, beautiful Beograd has the spirit that will stay in the souls of all those who visit. The people are special with a specific charm and humbleness that no one can forget or let go of easily. There is something special in Beograd, something no one can put in words, one can go and experience this energy for themselves. So to you Taylor i say... share your charm and humbleness we are all guilty and must begin to face-ourselves not each-other, then and only then will there be peace amongst us brothers and sisters.

Truudsman,
what don't you understand? We never attacked Dubrovnik, croats attacked the Yugoslav navy...Croatia ILLEGALLY DECLARED INDEPENDENCE - what don't you understand about that? Are you serious? Yugoslavia had all rights to defend its territory from formation of military structures on it's soil. Just like US would do if texas or any other country would do that is why militaries are the most expensive sectors of any country's spending TO PROTECT ITSELF from people who declare independence on their own soil without a vote. Serbs never got to vote. How many people died in Dubrovnik? Please tell me? How can you be so foolish? DO you know that 82 bridges across SErbia were destroyed? 160 factories? 17 hospitals? do you want me to go on? And you cry for a few roof tiles in dubrovnik? why because it is on the sea and omg it is so beautiful so a few roofs are more valuable then a whole country's infrastructure ARE YOU SERIOUS! My friend you are lost but I don't blame you the world has taught you to hate yourself. Just as the world has taught the Jews to hate themselves. Most Serbs I know are so ashamed they would never say they are Serbs. Yet, Serbs are like no others in the world because no other people fought for freedom like the Serb and paid the heaviest price in history. That is a fact if you want evidence I can give you it all day and all night - just ask. Tell me something if your croatia is such a beautiful place then why did they make poor farmers walk on foot to bosnia. over 300,000 of them? Come on give me your Croatian answer? Was it because of the Serbian army that this happened, haha save it man. You don't get it, educate yourself with facts, not CNN and BBC. You still don't get it there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, just like there was no genocide and ethnic cleansing by Serbs of Croats, Muslims, ALbanians. If you are so democratic why don't you help Croatia to become multi-ethnic again? You live among the most racially pure states in the world. Why is Kosovo almost completely clean of Serbs? Why have 150 churches disappered in the last 5 years? Why is Sarajevo completley cleansed of Serbs? Please answer me these questions with facts not the same lies repeated over and over again milosevic's fault his plan for a greater Serbia. Name me one speech where Milosevic said anything bad about anyone and I will give you all the money in my bank account which is a lot...i can give you countless of examples of hate from Croatian leaders and Muslim and Albanian leaders. Give me some facts, you keep saying Serbs did this and attaked this and that, I need facts. You yourself hate your own or if you don't hate you think that by going along the fairytale story the croats and muslims and Kosovo Albanians made up that you will be some kind of hero? Please you look desparate because you have no facts, zero, like every westerner who talks about the balkans the repeat the same lies that were conjured up in PR offices in london and new york. Look around you Serbia has close to 900,000 refugees...how many do albanians have = zero. How many do croats have = zero. How many do muslims have?
When are the muslims going to give back 500 years of torture, murder and enslavement of Serbs? Or do you consider Islam a peaceful religion too and what they did to Serbs Serbs brought about themselves like the Krajina poor peasents who didn't even have a pair sneakers to their name.
Truudsman, you are not a Serb and the reason i say that is because if you were you would go after the truth at all costs. You don't you live in the same fairytale accusatory world as muslims, croats, and albanians, but don't worry we are fighting hard here in the US, Australia, China and the world to show what really happened. We have the Evangelical church backing we are making movies, documentaries, books, BASED ON FACTS - real facts. Not stories of pretend victims like your best buddies in dubrovnik.

"Political seems more logical than emotional."

REALLY??? When was the last time you went through Croatia especially the villages? Hate to break the truth to you but its not a pretty picture for Serbs in Croatia! I would dare you to go through Croatia wearing a Serbian Cross and see what happens, but that wouldn't be wise.

You can say its political, but that is an ignorant excuse. Extremists are absolutley everywhere, that is where I can agree with you.

What these extremist need to realize is the war is over and now their tax money has to repair these damages. I am sure that money can be used in developing the country instead.

Truudsman,
hand grenades on children? shame on you, shame on you. Is that what mesic told you. Give me one factual event where hand grenades were thrown at children.
You think that because you can walk around Zagreb you are free? Why don't you try to tell them about the truth about what happened there, why don't you start an organization to help refugees get back what BELONGS to them, then you will see how much your croatian brothers love you.

Judging, speculating, and concluding on such touchy events as this one before any evidence, is also a "crime". It's called attacking. No matter how subtle it may appear, it's still an attack, and it's very negative and counter productive on all levels. Give peace a chance--no one said that it was going to be easy. The people that did this act of hate should never be allowed to ruin the future of our children by "infecting' them--instead we should listen to our children, and make peace and reconciliation for them--if not for us.

Listen to the children--it's their future too.
Or do we really love our egos more than our children? The last sentence is a $64.000,000,000 question!

You seem to have missed my point again. The Croatian attacks were wrong, but do we make right by creating another wrong?

And don;t undermine what happened in Dubrovnik, you say a few houses? Have you ever been there mate? I am a full blooded Serb, and I have seen the destruction my people have done to that beautiful area. And please when I go to Croatia in the summer-time, whether its Zagreb, Durbovnik or Split; I dont hide my nationality, most citizens there will know I am a Serb, BUT they also know I wasn't the one throwing hand-grenades at children... You can make your excuses but the only danger here is the extremists, and you all know well how we also have extremists, So whats your point?

You cannot label a whole society based on a few individuals. We expect the same from them , right? You continue to say your open to tolerance and love, but by your statements I can see you are not.

How about someone answer my question.... SInce we attacked Dubrovnik so aggressively, why didnt we take it?

Excuse me Taylor maybe I was a bit rash on the "hand-grenade" part, BUT snipers from mountain tops in Dubrovnik were in fact shooting un-armed civilians, many of them being children. And dont try to deny this; I have no reason to be Anti-Serb or Pro-Croat, I see us as ONE anyway. The facts remain, the extremists have tainted our image, and theirs.

Do you think the Croats do not know the truth? Beleive me they do, most just choose to ignore the facts, kinda like some of us... See the similarities between us brothers and sisters?

Everytime I vacation in Croatia and speak humble political with the locals, I am always told the same thing; What happened to Yugoslavia? "We used to love the Serbs vacaitoning here, what happened? now we have Westerners taking over.

So you see?

I lived in Sibenik. My neighbors as well as myself almost died from the Serb shelling. After the battle, we managed to escape with only our theatre blown up and the bridge destroyed. Not "bad" compared to what happened elsewhere.

My mother's family was from the area of Drnis. I say was because they were forced out by Serbian paramilitaries for the sole reason they were Croats. My uncle has returned and is trying to live in the area again.

Same with family friends from Kijevo, and countless others from Plitvice, Karlovac, Vrlika, Cetina area, Banovina, etc.

Please get it out of your head that there are only one set of victims. Everyone from the war is a victim. Everyone lost something. The reason some Serb property gets vandalized is because these people are still living in the past and hurting from their losses. In some part of their mind, they feel Serbs deserve these attacks because of what they did to their own Catholic churches and family villages/homes.

Of course, you don't see it this way. But hopefully I gave you some idea from the other side. Let's learn to forgive as Christians, as I'm sure many are.

Taylor;
Must I be blunt with you? My Serbian home was bombed in Dubrovnik, aswell as the whole neighbourhood it resided in. War is WAR... bottome line. The Croats are not angels either, you have PURPOSELY misunderstood me. They have initiated the whole situation in the first place BUT the people are innocent, they fell victim to the whole devastation. Beleive me I have done my research more than you can ever know... the difference between me and you is that YOU choose sides, I dont simply because we are slices cut from the same bread.

To claim I am not Serb is something of pure ignorance on your part. What is it to be a Serb ? (answer if you can)...

Remember one thing brother; Whatever it is you have to say against the Croats, the Croats have just the same amount to say about us.

I have learned this the hard-way. Once upon a time I was a "nationalist" and didn't want my people to claim responsibilty for anything. Now I know better, I know now it wasn't up to the people at all. We were all just pawns. When the war started in Croatia, the Croatians couldnt beleive it was happening, and righfully so... How can Yugoslavia bomb itself?

So please taylor... re-read my posts, with an open heart. I only speak good about our people, the Serbs were the first to realise the fatal mistake, then the Croats and then the Bosnians.

We will unite once again, and again it will remain. We cannot stop genetics ALL of us have blood (DNA) leading to the other, so why not?

Good day to you;

How about someone answer my Question.... Since we attacked Dubrovnik so aggressively, why didnt we take it? Answer: Because your so called JNA weren't good enough to take it. The Serb irregulars and the JNA never had the heart to fight as they were fighting without a cause. It;s only the Serbs who think that Slovenia, Croatia, BiH, Montenegro & Kosova broke away illegally. It appears the Serbs are always right while others are constantly wrong. It's no wonder the Serbs have trouble being accepted by the Balkan region.

Yes Taylor, the Serbs were always 'angelic' regarding their conduct in Yugoslavia's firey end ...... whatever ...

BTW, Croatia did hold a legitimate referendum, so did Slovenia and Bosnia and the majority democratically voted for independence which was allowed under the then Yugoslav constitution.

Two million citizens have no means for living and cannot ensure the minimum for existence.
Overall material damage is enormous. Preliminary estimates indicate that NATO

pre 14 godina

B92 i edited it myself, can you please write to me where there is anything that should be censored. thanks.

Trudsmaan, HB, Sin City...
Please you have ignored my whole post, and again started with the classic "FALSE ACCUSATION ASSUALT" the Croats and Muslims have so masterfully applied to in any political argument. First, I will answer your question, to be Serb means to go after the Truth, to fight for Freedom and Justice. We are the same right? Is that why muslims raped serbian women for 500 years, took every first born son back to turkey and impaled Serbian men with wooden stakes? Did Serbs rule over Muslims for 500 years and enslave them? Please stop saying we are the same, give me facts that show that we are the same. No we are not. On which side did croatia fight on in WWI? Serbia was alone surronded by enemies that NEVER knew what justice, freedom and truth meant, those enemies were Bulgaria, Muslim Bosnia, Albanians from Kosovo and Albania, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, all these countries fought joyfully in WWI and they LOST. So STOP saying we are the same when you have no historical facts to show they are same. STOP dodging my posts and answer me. I have answered you repeatedly with FACTS, not accusatory statements. I haven't accused of anything except losing your Serbian spirit, which is apparent because you are not seeking the TRUTH. I am not positined on any one side, in fact it is safe to say I hate serbia sometimes for letting that dumb CROAT leader Tito ruin our beautiful Serbia, and punish my grandfather and father. So, if anything a big part of me resents serbia for embracing a croatian leader that killed so many serbs, those are facts!!!!!!!!!! not false accusations.
Watch this video

when you are done, if you can stomach it then tell me CROATS and SERBS are the same and I am an acupucnturist and chinese medicine doctor and work in big medical group and i can give you the number to good psychiatrist. We ARE NOT THE SAME. PERIOD. Historical facts prove this, not just my words.
Your house was bombed, but you survived so thank God for that. But, you don't get it CROATIA started a war Serbs never wanted. Here is proof

HB, exactly my point, your Croatian army has always been known as the worst of the worst, you are not soldiers and you never have been. You lived under Austrian rule and learned art while Serbs were fighting for their very existence for centuries under the cruelest oppression you couldn't even begin to imagine under ISLAM. That separated us. JNA never took dubrovnik cause it wasn't theres to take, they didn't want to take it...they were leading a defensive war, protecting the soverignty of YUGOSLAVIA. FACT.

SINCITY - did the vatican tell you that or did Germany? cause guess what all the world knows that there was never a referendem!!!!! that is why there was a war, bosnia declared itself an Islamic state and Serbs will never live under ISLAM again. Croatia took away the status of Serbs in the country and unilaterlly declared independence these are FACTS! that is why there was a war, and give me a break, young poor Serbs in Krajina fought your army that was supplied by Iran, Germany, and all the vatican countires and you still couldn't do anything until NATO and the US came in. What a great victory, you croats have always needed oppressive empires to fight on your behalf, austria-hungary, nazi germany, nato-US the most oppressive FACTS.

I challenge all three of you to dispute anything I just wrote.

I challenge all three of you especially trudsmaan to give me answers concerning these issues.

1. why is kosovo cleansed almost completely of serbs?

2. why is Krajina serbian land for centuries clean of serbs.

3. why is sarajevo completely empty of serbs?

why does serbia have 900,000 refugees?

while you are thinking here is more PROOF, something none of you guys have about the TRUTH.
