But, Bulgar of Ohrid, were you born in the diaspora, or are you one of those who acts high and mighty once you've migrated to the diaspora?

How dumb, with the exception of croats and albanians, please don't send your money back home, they will just spend the money on ciggies, rakija and shielas in the kafani...

Useless the lot of them, just look after your families.

Yes how convenient, we love you diaspora, now give us some money... Lucky for us we are not as gullible like the locals.

No... what we expect you to do is that if you preach to others X, justify why you don't do X yourself in the first place.
(icj1, 26 December 2013 16:09)
==============================
I already explained that in the rest of my post, you moron.
Again, since you are so stupid not to get it, I don't need to justify anything and since where I live has anything to do with how I feel?

Let's get in an organized line, and (try to) help Serbia to get out from under the yoke of Western oppression, knowing the history of the region from the 1940s and onward.

Come to Serbia, Peggy. The land of milk and honey awaits you.

==================================
You, you are stopping me. The place is polluted with the likes of you.

Seriously, you really expect me to justify why I live anywhere to you or anyone else?
If you can't see why people live outside countries of their ethnicity then you are really, really stupid or just a sh!t stirrer. People have lives which are well established in those countries. Those countries are the only homes some people have ever had or remember and they have children and grandchildren there. Do you really expect them to drop it all just to prove their love for any country? Do you really?

Now if this is your whole argument then go kindergarten and preach over there.

It's funny how some people don't understand the difference between charity and true economic development
(Danilo, 24 December 2013 15:04)
=================================
So pouring money regularly whether it be visiting as a tourist or supporting various people and charities is a waste in your opinion.
Go tell it to Croatia whose people come here all the time and tell us how they have such wonderful tourism and so obviously enough for them.
Tourism is people coming into your country and spending money there. What do you think Serbs are doing when they go back year after year?
How much money do we send to our relatives there on regular basis?

Take this away and see how much Serbia would miss us.

If none of this mattered then Croatia would be in deep sh!t because that's all they have.

Of course more should be done like investing in business there as well and some have tried. Serbia has to do more to help this process along.

Great, make sure to convince yourself and Serbs about that and move to China and Russia. Be careful though as you might or might not be able to write in online forums as you wish, and it's going to be a shame for us to loose your contributions :)

You should thank God for even enjoying the beautiful coastline that you currently have. Actually, thank Tito because he gave it to Croatia after WWII (Ari Gold, 24 December 2013 10:07)Ari their you go agaian with your Serbian facist Chetnik movement progogandas. The coast was allways Croatian except some areas at times we were fighting Turks and being stabed by the facist mafioso Italians. Even the Byzatine empire http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croatian%E2%80%93Bulgarian_wars#Second_war said so when we were fighting Bulgar Turks. That is why their was a lot of Serb as refugees came to Croatia and Bosnia. Serbs allways fleeing the different Turks the Serbs overlords. The Serbs allways lived south of the Danube and Drina rivers. Ari Gold finaly make up your mind what are you Isreali or a Serb you make my point as others Serbs do to like the "Ron Burgundy". It is scientific my observations runing in to Serbs in the west. Of the 5 I have run in to in my traveles non of them said they were Serbs usualy Yugoslavian ,Bosnian etc. After some inquiring they finaly said they were Serbs funny. The only problem is Serbia getting ever poorer its only a mater of time. Before hungry angry destute Serbs will be clamouring to come to beautiful Croatia again. So you diaspora realy have to help your hill billy kin stay in Serbia before they embares Serbs world wide again.

Only "Serbia" Serbs made up 30%. The Serbs in the socialist republics of Bosnia and Croatia were on top of that. Montenegrins too and many people in Macedonia would call themselves Serbs today if it weren't for communist ideology. The real number is around 50%, maybe more.

Every country in the region is in pretty bad shape. You are falsely attempting to single out Serbia but the newest member of the EU is having a hard time in their paradise, aren't they? Did you know within 2 months of joining the EU, the club threatened to slap sanctions on Croatia for harboring all sorts of criminals. Likewise, all Croatia is in the media for these days are 10s of thousands of Nazi supporters singing in unison all throughout soccer stadiums in Croatia on a weekly basis.

Your economy is terrible too. You should thank God for even enjoying the beautiful coastline that you currently have. Actually, thank Tito because he gave it to Croatia after WWII after he equated the "war crimes" of the Serbian Royalist Chetnik Movement with the murderous Nazi Croat regime. Other than that, you are taking losses.

That is exactly right. We never kept our identity secret even during the height of lies and misinformation in the 1990s, but what Lenny does not know is that his Croats in Australia are only known as the first terrorist in Australian history.
The place was in George Street, Sydney, Haymarket in the early 1970s. They placed a bomb outside of the Adriatic Travel Agency which killed one person and injured several others. Then there was the numerous bombs in Double Bay where Yugoslavia had it Consulate offices then the intended poisoning of Sydney’s water supply etc, etc!!!!!!

The interest here seems to be in keeping Serbia in the 19th century and to make sure that fires of hatred and bigotry are kept to the max.

Oh Lenny, we have never been ashamed to say we are Serbs, not even during the war did we keep our identity a secret. Tell us, what did you pull that one out of.

We show who we are every day by living a good, clean life and certainly don't make any trouble. Same can't be said for Croatians who made such a mess at Australian Open or the Muslims who took part in attempted terrorist activities. We don't scream how good we are and how bad you guys are, we just live it. We have shown the people of the countries we live in what people we are and nobody looks down on us.

Lenny, you talk about the way you wish things to be not reality.
About us not being able to support Serbia financially, well, again not true. We hold functions where we collect money, we send money individually and while most of us are not rich we are still able to support our families and charities there.

Are you tryig to tell us that Croatians are so rich and do more?

It is to the point that Serb diaspora dose not like to be indentefied as Serbs. Thanks to Belgrade Serbia even it tried to hide behind as being "Ygoslavia" not Serbia lol the one that destroyed and murdered Yugo. That Serbs made 30% population ex Yugo lol when its reputation was completely destroyed and of Serbs. No where to hide Serbia with spot lites pointing out Serbias/Serbs many wayward pervasive criminaleties. Any way much of the Serb diaspora is barely even middle class and strugling. Send a few dollars to relatives which is a lot when converted in to dinars and the low standard of living of Serbia.

Unless you're underaged, then every moment you're awake, you're choosing to live somewhere other than Serbia, China or Russia.

Come to Serbia, Peggy. The land of milk and honey awaits you.

What's stopping you?

You should thank God for even enjoying the beautiful coastline that you currently have. Actually, thank Tito because he gave it to Croatia after WWII (Ari Gold, 24 December 2013 10:07)Ari their you go agaian with your Serbian facist Chetnik movement progogandas. The coast was allways Croatian except some areas at times we were fighting Turks and being stabed by the facist mafioso Italians. Even the Byzatine empire http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croatian%E2%80%93Bulgarian_wars#Second_war said so when we were fighting Bulgar Turks. That is why their was a lot of Serb as refugees came to Croatia and Bosnia. Serbs allways fleeing the different Turks the Serbs overlords. The Serbs allways lived south of the Danube and Drina rivers. Ari Gold finaly make up your mind what are you Isreali or a Serb you make my point as others Serbs do to like the "Ron Burgundy". It is scientific my observations runing in to Serbs in the west. Of the 5 I have run in to in my traveles non of them said they were Serbs usualy Yugoslavian ,Bosnian etc. After some inquiring they finaly said they were Serbs funny. The only problem is Serbia getting ever poorer its only a mater of time. Before hungry angry destute Serbs will be clamouring to come to beautiful Croatia again. So you diaspora realy have to help your hill billy kin stay in Serbia before they embares Serbs world wide again.

Let's get in an organized line, and (try to) help Serbia to get out from under the yoke of Western oppression, knowing the history of the region from the 1940s and onward.

It is long past time to quit arguing on every topic, but to take a good, hard look in the mirror. What we see just might be part of the problem. icj1, that applies to you too.

No... what we expect you to do is that if you preach to others X, justify why you don't do X yourself in the first place.

==============================
I already explained that in the rest of my post, you moron.
Again, since you are so stupid not to get it, I don't need to justify anything and since where I live has anything to do with how I feel?

just a note

While what he says is true, he apparently does not read the comments from the diasporia that post on this website.
The interest here seems to be in keeping Serbia in the 19th century and to make sure that fires of hatred and bigotry are kept to the max.
While they have CHOSEN a life in the west and take full advantage of its opportunity they try to convince Serbia to move closer to Russia, something they apparently have no interest in doing.

Great, make sure to convince yourself and Serbs about that and move to China and Russia. Be careful though as you might or might not be able to write in online forums as you wish, and it's going to be a shame for us to loose your contributions :)

Seriously, you really expect me to justify why I live anywhere to you or anyone else?

How dumb, with the exception of croats and albanians, please don't send your money back home, they will just spend the money on ciggies, rakija and shielas in the kafani...

Useless the lot of them, just look after your families.

Yes how convenient, we love you diaspora, now give us some money... Lucky for us we are not as gullible like the locals.

But, Bulgar of Ohrid, were you born in the diaspora, or are you one of those who acts high and mighty once you've migrated to the diaspora?
