Here is something that would dispute this.  About six months ago, I've
received different information.  I'm searching for this, please be patient.

Also, circumstantial evidence: her "Serbian-Jewish Friendship Society"
is a propaganda organization formed in response to the Croatian situation,
it has precious little to do with Serbsian-Jewish friendship.  Her primary
function is to advance Milosevic's propaganda lies about "fascist Croats".

THIS PROPAGANDA IS WHY THERE IS CARNAGE TODAY IN FORMER YUGOSLAVIA!!!!

And Klara Mandic is responsible for assisting Mr. Milosevic.  Here is
how their style of propaganda works:

Let me quote "Carving Out a Greater Serbia", by Stephen Engelberg, from The
New York Times Magazine, September 1, 1991.  This is a story about the Serbian
President Slobodan Milosevic:

  ...[In mid-March of 1991], the legendary reclusive Balkan politician
outlined his plan for crushing the opposition: a renewal of the iron-fisted
nationalism that first won him acclaim. ...
  ...In his steadfast quest for a Greater Serbia, he has followed a single
strategy.  Each step begins with a propaganda campaign stressing injustices --
usually grossly exaggerated -- done to Serbs. ...
  ...Having stoked the fires with propaganda, Milosevic then pressures his
target, either through organized demonstrations, military action or diplomacy.
These tactics forced the governments of Vojvodina and Kosovo to abandon their
powers to Serbia last year.  More recently, the same tactics have sent the
republic of Croatia reeling and now threaten Bosnia-Herzegovina...

A year later, we see the results: Newsweek (Aug. 24, 1992, p.45):

      The Serbs have all but won their war in Bosnia.  Their brutal policy
   of ethnic cleansing has demolished whole villages and made refugees of
   more than 1 million civilians, mostly Muslims and Croats. ...
      How did the Serbs get away with it?  Western inaction is only partly
   to blame.  Most of the credit goes to Serbian President Slobodan
   Milosevic.  His plan was brillaint and simple: under the cover of ethnic
   conflict, seize prodigious amounts of land.  If Bosnian Serbs could
   be convinced they faced extinction, they would expel, terrorize and
   kill their neighbors.

As you see, Milosevic's lies about "fascist Croats" and "fundamentalist
Muslims" were a key part of starting this war.  Serbian propagandists
like Mrs. Mandic have played a key role in creating this carnage.  

Do I think she is Jewish?  Not for a moment.  And your attempts to
convince me only sound like more propaganda fabrications.

I'll keep on responding to your personal attacks as long as I have the
time and you present me with an opportunity.
