Croatia's now former president has spoken about the results of his term in office and the situation in Croatia, saying that "the Ustasha snake does not sleep."
Why is it that whenever Croatia is mentioned on this site, Ustase mus be mention as well. Bigoted fear mongering much? Why are Serbs so obsessed with Croats and demonizing them?
Hey Bob, don’t judge everyone by your standards. Not everyone draws social security.
(sj, 19 February 2015 11:29)
How can you understand when your standards are less than half of mine? I guess your social security is what you steal from your grandmother's meagre pension.
The CTC has once again perplexed even himself talking in the third person, but as I said before many times he is either nipping on some cooking sherry again or he hears voices. He is the CTC who sees every flaw but never makes any comment other than try to appear funny and I say try.
P.S. CTC = Chief Toilet Cleaner

Lenny let me repeat it for you. Croatia has nothing to sell except a superior form of BS. How Russians like swimming in Dubrovnik streets last summer? Good?
I know the food and drink that Croatia exports. I’ve tried it and most of it is s***. Your plumb brandy Badel is no better than rubbing alcohol and the other stuff made by Podravka is poor quality. The only passable part is Kras biscuits but the Macedonians make better quality and its far cheaper.
“Croatian companies own the majority of Serbia's food production ,manufacturing and distribution”... its in your blood all BS.

Firsly, the head of the nazi snake is not in Zagreb. In fact, it is not even in Croatia. The only part of the snake that slithers around Croatia is the tail rattle. The head lives somewhere in Brussels.
Secondly, you ignored the serpent for four long years because it offered you an apple from the garden of paradise (which it never delivered, by the way) and you allowed it to grow until it became a cross between gigantic anaconda and the black mamba. How about you bear some blame for the snake's shocking size and venom and admit that you effed up royally?
Kitarovic will use the kind of Nazi fascist rhetoric you like, but there's nothing she can do differently because at least 75% of your laws are made in Brussels. That's the number of laws made from Brussels in a country like the UK, so your number might even be a little higher.
(Ari Gold, 17 February 2015 18:09)
Well, you did not provide any evidence how you got to the 75% so we can assume it is garbage. According to the House of Commons http://www.parliament.uk/briefing-papers/RP10-62.pdf, it is less
However, even if 75% or 90% were to be the true number, I'm not sure what the meaning of that number is! To illustrate on how meaningless that counting exercise is, assume the following:
Let's assume that in 2012 there were only three pieces of legislation impacting UK (the 3 examples are actual ones):
1. Health and Social Care Act 2012 (approved by UK parliament)
2. Directive 2012/16/EU adding hydrochloric acid as an active substance for environmental relevance purposes (approved by the EU)
3. Directive 2012/15/EU adding margosa extract as an active substance for environmental relevance purposes (approved by the EU)
So, yes 67% of the legislation impacting UK was made by the EU. But it was the 33% approved by the UK Parliament that had the most impact on the life of UK citizens.
As you can see, you are focusing on things that are meaningless, while people are more pragmatic about what impacts their lives, rather than numbers that mean nothing.
But you are useful from time to time. You do make us laugh. Please keep it up.

I have yet to come across ONE Albanian who has even an idea on how governments work as the only time they have been inside a government building is to collect social security. Croatia is f**** and there is no coming back from this. Ask Milanovic just how well Croatia is going. This man has been trying his hardest to change things, to move away from fascism so he can attack investment, but at every turn he is rebuffed.
Its glaringly obvious that Croatia hasn't moved on from its nazi past. I hope Europe does something to stop this resurgence of fascism before its too late.
(So sad, too bad, 17 February 2015 11:43)
===========================
Too late for Europe. It's about to be renamed Europstan.
I see Serbs and Croats joining forces in the future just to survive.
If you're referring to moral superiority then you should check back with your comment where you're rejoicing about the possibility of Croatia's demise.
If you're talking about intellectual superiority then you've got me in stitches. You're on par with Ari Gold, Pegster, and a few others.
Anytime someone starts with 'I'm far more superior than...' it's evident that they're ...oh who am I kidding. Try convincing a crazy person he's crazy.
Buddy, it's clear you have an inferiority complex. But you are useful from time to time. You do make us laugh. Please keep it up.
Mesic led this delegation to Moscow, but all Russia wants to do is build a wedge within the EU, nothing more. They are just jerking Croatia’s chain. In fact Mesic told Vucic at the ceremony that he was going.
However, Croatia has nothing to sell except a superior form of BS. Its main source of income is tourism and nothing else. What little industry there is left is being closed down at Brussels’ instructions. You see the EU has been funding Croatia but funds are tight and no more good life. A little sj is ranting and raving again on his perpetual BS take it easy you will blow a gasket. As for Russians they miss the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUTTtUu9xlE good Croatian food. Since they cant travel so easily anymore to Croatia because of the sanctions. They are pissed off at idiot KGB Putin. Tourism to Croatia was growing at 24% from Russia year over year. They wanted to escape from their anal life's in Russia for just a little bit to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVxZxOaEuF4 beautiful Croatia. Lot of Croatian food exporters had double digit growth this year. Even Croatian companies own the majority of Serbia's food production ,manufacturing and distribution.
Nazi's this Ustasha that......most of them died at Bleiburg and others were handled by the Communists and UDBA. WW2 war crimes were settled by the Serbian Yugoslavia. However, to this day we still have Communists walking around who have never answered for their crimes. BTW our King died fighting the Magyars.
Though, the new Croatian president is the perfect counterpart to Serbia's Nikolic and his nationalist attitudes - they are brother and sister in mind, just belonging to different families.
(Comm. Parrisson, 17 February 2015 14:48)
NGO sector Serbs from Belgrade are still paranoid of some nationalist boogeyman in Serbia even though they have ran the country for 14 years! The "nationalists" today have taken up the same OTPORista language that the Tadic regime had and Nikolic is actually less of a nationalist than this Josipovic guy.
Remember, Josipovic is still the guy who said Serbia should pay war reparations and blah blah. He tried to match his opponents anti-Serb bigotry, but failed and that's why he wasn't elected because we all know Croatian society is still infatuated with Serbia.
And bam bam, haha you can go to the Russian food fair all you want but you know full well you cannot act because you are a member of the EU. So you can show up and smile but you no longer control your own destiny. Kitarovic will use the kind of Nazi fascist rhetoric you like, but there's nothing she can do differently because at least 75% of your laws are made in Brussels. That's the number of laws made from Brussels in a country like the UK, so your number might even be a little higher.
As far as the veto, God please use it! It would be the biggest favor returned for the Serb royal family bringing you into civilization in the 1st place.
I just came here hoping to see keyboard Croats like Bam Bam and Lenard fly off the handle again. So far I'm one for two. I'd write something back but the rest of the team seems to be ridiculing Bam Bam's cyber farts fairly well. Hopefully Lenard will stumble over his words in fit of rage a little later.
Funny how Josipovic suddenly gives a damn about this apparent danger to Croatian society only after he's stepped down as president. What did he do during his tenure in office to address it?
@bam bam Croatia hasn't got the right to veto anyone. As a long term member of the EU and the UK, Serbia's entry into the EU will be decided by the its membership as a whole not one small country who's history in the region leaves a lot to be desired. So please stop saying Croatia has the right of veto it doesn't.
A wise ex president, unfortunately replaced by another person with different opinions now. Though, the new Croatian president is the perfect counterpart to Serbia's Nikolic and his nationalist attitudes - they are brother and sister in mind, just belonging to different families.
(Bam Bam, 17 February 2015 14:00)
I am a far superior person than you and as such I am well aware that Mesic led this delegation to Moscow, but all Russia wants to do is build a wedge within the EU, nothing more. They are just jerking Croatia’s chain. In fact Mesic told Vucic at the ceremony that he was going.
However, Croatia has nothing to sell except a superior form of BS. Its main source of income is tourism and nothing else. What little industry there is left is being closed down at Brussels’ instructions. You see the EU has been funding Croatia but funds are tight and no more good life.
Croatia’s veto is as good a mine i.e worthless. Brussels tells Croatia jump, Zagreb asks, how high? When you are begging you have no say. Ask the Slovenes whether they would go back to the old Yugoslavia and you would get a 95% yes in any survey, but Serbs don’t want that any more. They are tired of feed bums and no hopers and then stab in the back.
Initially, I thought that Vucic made a mistake in going to Zagreb, but it was a brilliant move. He showed the world the true Croatia – a fascist people, hey even Josipovic said it mate.
I’m not sure which century you are living in but there are several statues of Draza in Serbia today. Even your US allies have decorated Chetniks but not one Albanian or Ustasha.
Have your family from Kosova found refuge in rich Croatia? LOL, LOL.
Are you aware that the Russians have invited a Croatian delegation to Moscow regarding food trade - your so called orthodox friends don't care about who they do business with. Read the news ! Everybody wants to do business with Croatia including Vucic. Remember who holds the power to Veto ! I suppose the only response you Serbs can give is ... Your all fascists! ..........The problem with Serbs today is they still can't get over the fact, that Draza is still not rehabilitated by Serbia because we all know he is nothing more than a war criminal.
In a way I'm glad B92 permits BamBam to spew his hate. He quite successfully condemns himself without the need for anyone else to reply. He deserves our pity. But he also represents the dark side of Croatia and the Croatian diaspora in particular. Those who are apologists for the appalling Ustashe, and celebrate the evil of Nazism. They remind me of ISIL with their penchant for torture, cruelty, and beheadings. As for Josipovic, I believe he's a cultured man by and large who meant well, even though I didn't always agree with him.
The next generation of young Ustase is already being educated and preparing itself for whatever may occur in the future. It will continue over many generations. The Ustase must be good for Europe because it grants you membership into the E.U and NATO. I suppose anything that's anti Serbian gets you a pass.
The only snake is you Josipovic you f**king commo dog. Under your leadership the country almost went into default. Your a traitor to all those who defended the country from the Chetnik scum. The days of you holding Champagne sipping Partizan parties in the Banski Dvor are over. Your booed and heckled everywhere you go...other than your beloved Serbia where they love you because you almost brang Croatia to its knees. Thank god common sense has prevailed and we now have a president that will run the country with dignity and honor..... Partizan dog you will be erased from our history forever.
Hey Bam Bam (part time Albanians jihadist/part time Croat) and Lenny don’t blame the Chetniks this comes out of the mouth of a former Croatian President, LOL. A Serb could not have done a better job than Josipovic by pissing on Croatia from a great height, LOL, LOL.
After this Croatia is dead, but it will be amusing to see the new President try and keep the youth in Croatia. No one will dare open a door in Croatia let alone industry – Josipovic has read the eulogy at Croatia’s funeral. Oh I have been waiting for this for a long time but it’s all coming together.
Its glaringly obvious that Croatia hasn't moved on from its nazi past. I hope Europe does something to stop this resurgence of fascism before its too late.

The days of you holding Champagne sipping Partizan parties in the Banski Dvor are over. Your booed and heckled everywhere you go...other than your beloved Serbia where they love you because you almost brang Croatia to its knees. Thank god common sense has prevailed and we now have a president that will run the country with dignity and honor..... Partizan dog you will be erased from our history forever.
Are you aware that the Russians have invited a Croatian delegation to Moscow regarding food trade - your so called orthodox friends don't care about who they do business with. Read the news ! Everybody wants to do business with Croatia including Vucic. Remember who holds the power to Veto ! I suppose the only response you Serbs can give is ... Your all fascists! ..........The problem with Serbs today is they still can't get over the fact, that Draza is still not rehabilitated by Serbia because we all know he is nothing more than a war criminal.
Its glaringly obvious that Croatia hasn't moved on from its nazi past. I hope Europe does something to stop this resurgence of fascism before its too late.
The next generation of young Ustase is already being educated and preparing itself for whatever may occur in the future. It will continue over many generations. The Ustase must be good for Europe because it grants you membership into the E.U and NATO. I suppose anything that's anti Serbian gets you a pass.
Mesic led this delegation to Moscow, but all Russia wants to do is build a wedge within the EU, nothing more. They are just jerking Croatia’s chain. In fact Mesic told Vucic at the ceremony that he was going.
However, Croatia has nothing to sell except a superior form of BS. Its main source of income is tourism and nothing else. What little industry there is left is being closed down at Brussels’ instructions. You see the EU has been funding Croatia but funds are tight and no more good life. A little sj is ranting and raving again on his perpetual BS take it easy you will blow a gasket. As for Russians they miss the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUTTtUu9xlE good Croatian food. Since they cant travel so easily anymore to Croatia because of the sanctions. They are pissed off at idiot KGB Putin. Tourism to Croatia was growing at 24% from Russia year over year. They wanted to escape from their anal life's in Russia for just a little bit to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVxZxOaEuF4 beautiful Croatia. Lot of Croatian food exporters had double digit growth this year. Even Croatian companies own the majority of Serbia's food production ,manufacturing and distribution.

I am a far superior person than you and as such I am well aware that Mesic led this delegation to Moscow, but all Russia wants to do is build a wedge within the EU, nothing more. They are just jerking Croatia’s chain. In fact Mesic told Vucic at the ceremony that he was going.

Croatia’s veto is as good a mine i.e worthless. Brussels tells Croatia jump, Zagreb asks, how high? When you are begging you have no say. Ask the Slovenes whether they would go back to the old Yugoslavia and you would get a 95% yes in any survey, but Serbs don’t want that any more. They are tired of feed bums and no hopers and then stab in the back.
Initially, I thought that Vucic made a mistake in going to Zagreb, but it was a brilliant move. He showed the world the true Croatia – a fascist people, hey even Josipovic said it mate.
I’m not sure which century you are living in but there are several statues of Draza in Serbia today. Even your US allies have decorated Chetniks but not one Albanian or Ustasha.
Have your family from Kosova found refuge in rich Croatia? LOL, LOL.
Hey Bam Bam (part time Albanians jihadist/part time Croat) and Lenny don’t blame the Chetniks this comes out of the mouth of a former Croatian President, LOL. A Serb could not have done a better job than Josipovic by pissing on Croatia from a great height, LOL, LOL.
After this Croatia is dead, but it will be amusing to see the new President try and keep the youth in Croatia. No one will dare open a door in Croatia let alone industry – Josipovic has read the eulogy at Croatia’s funeral. Oh I have been waiting for this for a long time but it’s all coming together.
Though, the new Croatian president is the perfect counterpart to Serbia's Nikolic and his nationalist attitudes - they are brother and sister in mind, just belonging to different families.
(Comm. Parrisson, 17 February 2015 14:48)
NGO sector Serbs from Belgrade are still paranoid of some nationalist boogeyman in Serbia even though they have ran the country for 14 years! The "nationalists" today have taken up the same OTPORista language that the Tadic regime had and Nikolic is actually less of a nationalist than this Josipovic guy.
Remember, Josipovic is still the guy who said Serbia should pay war reparations and blah blah. He tried to match his opponents anti-Serb bigotry, but failed and that's why he wasn't elected because we all know Croatian society is still infatuated with Serbia.
And bam bam, haha you can go to the Russian food fair all you want but you know full well you cannot act because you are a member of the EU. So you can show up and smile but you no longer control your own destiny. Kitarovic will use the kind of Nazi fascist rhetoric you like, but there's nothing she can do differently because at least 75% of your laws are made in Brussels. That's the number of laws made from Brussels in a country like the UK, so your number might even be a little higher.
As far as the veto, God please use it! It would be the biggest favor returned for the Serb royal family bringing you into civilization in the 1st place.
(Lenard, 17 February 2015 21:09)
Lenny let me repeat it for you. Croatia has nothing to sell except a superior form of BS. How Russians like swimming in Dubrovnik streets last summer? Good?
I know the food and drink that Croatia exports. I’ve tried it and most of it is s***. Your plumb brandy Badel is no better than rubbing alcohol and the other stuff made by Podravka is poor quality. The only passable part is Kras biscuits but the Macedonians make better quality and its far cheaper.
“Croatian companies own the majority of Serbia's food production ,manufacturing and distribution”... its in your blood all BS.
I just came here hoping to see keyboard Croats like Bam Bam and Lenard fly off the handle again. So far I'm one for two. I'd write something back but the rest of the team seems to be ridiculing Bam Bam's cyber farts fairly well. Hopefully Lenard will stumble over his words in fit of rage a little later.
A wise ex president, unfortunately replaced by another person with different opinions now. Though, the new Croatian president is the perfect counterpart to Serbia's Nikolic and his nationalist attitudes - they are brother and sister in mind, just belonging to different families.
But you are useful from time to time. You do make us laugh. Please keep it up.

Hey Bob, don’t judge everyone by your standards. Not everyone draws social security.
Funny how Josipovic suddenly gives a damn about this apparent danger to Croatian society only after he's stepped down as president. What did he do during his tenure in office to address it?
Nazi's this Ustasha that......most of them died at Bleiburg and others were handled by the Communists and UDBA. WW2 war crimes were settled by the Serbian Yugoslavia. However, to this day we still have Communists walking around who have never answered for their crimes. BTW our King died fighting the Magyars.

Hmm, I'm perplexed... Since I mostly quote the CE of B92 forums sj, you are saying that the CE of B92 forums sj is clueless and his/her post are all in-house jokes because he/she is the only one who understands them!!! Mate, you are totally out of line - the CE of B92 forums sj is a giant of economic thinking and the information he/she provides to these forums is priceless because most of it can be found nowhere else.
In a way I'm glad B92 permits BamBam to spew his hate. He quite successfully condemns himself without the need for anyone else to reply. He deserves our pity. But he also represents the dark side of Croatia and the Croatian diaspora in particular. Those who are apologists for the appalling Ustashe, and celebrate the evil of Nazism. They remind me of ISIL with their penchant for torture, cruelty, and beheadings. As for Josipovic, I believe he's a cultured man by and large who meant well, even though I didn't always agree with him.
@bam bam Croatia hasn't got the right to veto anyone. As a long term member of the EU and the UK, Serbia's entry into the EU will be decided by the its membership as a whole not one small country who's history in the region leaves a lot to be desired. So please stop saying Croatia has the right of veto it doesn't.
If you're referring to moral superiority then you should check back with your comment where you're rejoicing about the possibility of Croatia's demise.
If you're talking about intellectual superiority then you've got me in stitches. You're on par with Ari Gold, Pegster, and a few others.
Anytime someone starts with 'I'm far more superior than...' it's evident that they're ...oh who am I kidding. Try convincing a crazy person he's crazy.
Buddy, it's clear you have an inferiority complex. But you are useful from time to time. You do make us laugh. Please keep it up.

(So sad, too bad, 17 February 2015 11:43)
===========================
Too late for Europe. It's about to be renamed Europstan.
I see Serbs and Croats joining forces in the future just to survive.
(the omnipotent, 17 February 2015 22:24)
People like Bam Bam are idiots who make idiotic statements on subjects they have no clues about. I have yet to come across ONE Albanian who has even an idea on how governments work as the only time they have been inside a government building is to collect social security. Croatia is f**** and there is no coming back from this. Ask Milanovic just how well Croatia is going. This man has been trying his hardest to change things, to move away from fascism so he can attack investment, but at every turn he is rebuffed.
Kitarovic will use the kind of Nazi fascist rhetoric you like, but there's nothing she can do differently because at least 75% of your laws are made in Brussels. That's the number of laws made from Brussels in a country like the UK, so your number might even be a little higher.
(Ari Gold, 17 February 2015 18:09)
Well, you did not provide any evidence how you got to the 75% so we can assume it is garbage. According to the House of Commons http://www.parliament.uk/briefing-papers/RP10-62.pdf, it is less
However, even if 75% or 90% were to be the true number, I'm not sure what the meaning of that number is! To illustrate on how meaningless that counting exercise is, assume the following:
Let's assume that in 2012 there were only three pieces of legislation impacting UK (the 3 examples are actual ones):
1. Health and Social Care Act 2012 (approved by UK parliament)
2. Directive 2012/16/EU adding hydrochloric acid as an active substance for environmental relevance purposes (approved by the EU)
3. Directive 2012/15/EU adding margosa extract as an active substance for environmental relevance purposes (approved by the EU)
So, yes 67% of the legislation impacting UK was made by the EU. But it was the 33% approved by the UK Parliament that had the most impact on the life of UK citizens.
As you can see, you are focusing on things that are meaningless, while people are more pragmatic about what impacts their lives, rather than numbers that mean nothing.

The CTC has once again perplexed even himself talking in the third person, but as I said before many times he is either nipping on some cooking sherry again or he hears voices. He is the CTC who sees every flaw but never makes any comment other than try to appear funny and I say try.

Firsly, the head of the nazi snake is not in Zagreb. In fact, it is not even in Croatia. The only part of the snake that slithers around Croatia is the tail rattle. The head lives somewhere in Brussels.
Secondly, you ignored the serpent for four long years because it offered you an apple from the garden of paradise (which it never delivered, by the way) and you allowed it to grow until it became a cross between gigantic anaconda and the black mamba. How about you bear some blame for the snake's shocking size and venom and admit that you effed up royally?
Hey Bob, don’t judge everyone by your standards. Not everyone draws social security.
(sj, 19 February 2015 11:29)
How can you understand when your standards are less than half of mine? I guess your social security is what you steal from your grandmother's meagre pension.
Why is it that whenever Croatia is mentioned on this site, Ustase mus be mention as well. Bigoted fear mongering much? Why are Serbs so obsessed with Croats and demonizing them?
