No such luck. In 1999, ten years after the fall of Communism, an undeclared war is being waged. Czech emigrants are organising against their former country. For example, in the US congressional debate on NATO expansion, Czech emigrants living in the States vociferously sided against the Czech Republic's entry. On the other side of the battlefield, the Czech Parliament is in the process of enacting another piece of discriminatory, anti-emigrant legislation.
Emotions are high on both sides.
One might conjecture that it was the Czech establishment who initiated the enmity because of fear that the emigrants might be the first to blow the whistle, and call the Czech economic miracle what it really was, namely, a hoax. Well, yes and no. The rift is hardly attributable to one single cause, and this makes any progress painfully slow-paced. While the Communists could expect little impact from their nineteenth-century rhetoric, the practical action they undertook was significantly more efficient. First of all, they decided to consistently persecute the emigrants' relatives.
