Subject: Re: Re: A Call to sanity

In response to Dr. (meaning "drug") Adnan Zejnilovic

First, as you may have seen above Dr. in our language means "Drug", which
is the title I still hold for Josip Broz.  Not a PhD, Dr.
(Recall that Dr. Josip Broz has honorary doctorates from several US universities,
check your history books).
Anyhow, 
What I just read by you disturbed me very much.
Are you not only a racist - but practice segregation based on your profession?
You seem to indicate that radnici-seljaci slogan made people leave former YU?
Who fed you?  Who still feeds you? Who clothes you? Who paves your roads?
Lowlives?  I think not.
Though my parents are "educated" and researchers, their parents were farmers and 
shoe-makers.  Making money to educate their kids.
What kind of a country can you have with just self-proclaimed higher-class roaming
around.
This was always the problem in former YU.  University was free - almost everyone went 
there, and after graduation, were higher than god himself.  Our people, for the 
most part are very arrogant and full of themselves.
A CALL TO SANITY

>more radnici and more seljacine to spit and ruin our cities, culture etc.

Oh boy, who build your cities?  Where did your culture come from?  I think I will
not dignify your zero attitude with anymore energy.
I am a mathematician by profession.  Greeting the secretary, mailman, construction
worker down the street, etc.  You may want to give it a try ... you will become a 
better citizen of whatever country you are now.

TO ALL OF YOU FORMER YUGOSLAVS:

Do you think we are the only ones reading these lines?
Definitly not.
A lot of foreign nationals read what is written here.  To my great dissappointment, 
I must say:
If I didnt know the people, I'd think most of you are simple, blood-thirsty and
VERY full of yourselves.
AND WE SEEK THE HELP OF U.S.? AND THE REST OF THE WORLD?
Who wants to sends their sons to defend a bunch of loonies?
So, sober up.  Clean up your act.  Write responsibly.  Behave like citizens.
You will be amazed how much public opinion here makes a difference in the policy
of the government.

Now, most of you will not want to accept the following as truth, but here goes:(they certainly are)

If it was not for Dr. Josip Broz, his character, personality, charisma etc.(and totaliarism rule)
the USSR would have walked all over us as they did with EVERY OTHER SOCIALIST COUNTRY.
Think about it.  We were not special.  Except for the leadership.
Now, if we were under the USSR, most of you who were born there would NOT be here studying right
now.  Think about it.  

If it was not for him, the Nazis would have stayed in the region.  Much to the delight of the
Ustasha and Chetnik lowlives.  The whole WWII may have ended up different.  Because, 
LET NO ONE FORGET HOW MANY RADNICI-SELJACI-STUDENTI-ETC DIED FOR FREEDOM.
DO NOT FORGET IGMAN 1941, SUTJESKA 1943, NERETVA 1943, KOZARA 1944 ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC
MY family fought in the war against (and not for) the NAZIS and their puppies.
Well.  How easy it is to speak about ancient history of Bogumils, Macedonians,
even bloody Alexandar the Macedonian, and forget the dead that freed your asses.  The
children murdered, much in the same way as the Serbian-nationalists are doing right now.
I AM VERY DISSAPOINTED.
But not dissolusioned.  There is hope for you all.  All my brothers on both sides.

BEWARE:  Do not think I am a communist.  Far from it.  Very far.  Do not think I support
a whole Yugoslavia ... not by a long shot ... not the way it was 1982-1992.
Long live BiH.  My brother's deaths will be avenged with education, leadership, humanity,
understanding ... and forgiving.  We shall find a way to shave off the Chetnik beards, 
and turn them into productive semi-humans.  As far as for normal (majority) of Serbs:
They are people just like you and I.

If none of you can take my words ... so be it.  I gave it a try.  Life goes on.
