Jasenovac Monument, in memory of more than 750,000 Serbian, Jewish and Roma victims of Croat WWII genocide.
Genocide Croats Committed in WWII Must Be Fully Acknowledged and Punished
Participants of the Fourth International Conference on Jasenovac, held in the city of Banja Luka, Republika Srpska, have adopted a Declaration requesting a lawsuit to be brought against the state of Croatia for genocide committed over Serbs, Jews and Gypsies during the Second World War.
Declaration demands that Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina and governments of Republika Srpska and Serbia bring up charges against Croatia for the genocide of Serbs, Jews and Roma committed in the Jasenovac system of death camps in the fascist Independent State of Croatia (NDH).
The document recommends that Council of Ministers of BiH, RS and Serbian government seek compensation for victims of Croat genocide and for their descendants before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the Hague. It further requests the governments of Croatia, Republika Srpska and Serbia to start a procedure for unifying the Jasenovac Complex, currently divided between Bosnia and Croatia, and to put it under UNESCO protection.
Conference participants also requested immediate investigation of the Ustice area — the location of the mass grave of more than 12,000 Roma victims, according to the document.
With the adoption of the Declaration the two-day Fourth International Conference on Jasenovac in which over 170 members participated, submitting more than 50 reports and documents, has ended.
Jasenovac Holocaust, First Day of the Conference
“The numbers are important, but holocaust can be a one, single victim. My mother was suffocated and then burned in Auschwitz for no other reason but because she was Jewish. Isn’t that horrendous in and of itself?” — Arie Livne, representative of the World Jewish Congress, addressed the present with this testimony on Wednesday, on the first day of the Fourth International Conference on Jasenovac, held in Banja Luka’s Ban Court. His reminder about the horrific fate of any of hundreds of thousands of Jasenovac martyrs was a comment on the discussions over the past years, mainly between Serbs and Croats, regarding the numbers and scope of the Jasenovac holocaust.
During the two-day conference of historians, theologians, politicians and survivors of the Croat death camps, Republika Srpska Prime Minister Milorad Dodik warned that this massive crime was never officially condemned or punished.
“Spreading the falsities and distorting the facts about Jasenovac is part of the vile campaign to politicize and minimize the victims of these monstrous death camps,” said Dodik.
On Wednesday, the Orthodox Christian and Jewish religious services were held for the souls of the cruelly slaughtered Jasenovac Complex prisoners. Memorial Liturgy was served by the Serbian Bishop of Bihac-Petrovac Diocese Chrysostom, and the prayers for the killed Jews were read by the Belgrade Rabbi Isak Asiel.
Vladimir Umeljic, Belgrade historian and theologian, has put forward a proposal to send a resolution to the European power centers demanding that Croatia’s EU membership be conditioned by the full acknowledgment of the Croat Jasenovac genocide.
Croat Government Keeps Covering Up the Genocide
“The new Croat government is using different means in an attempt to do the same as Franjo Tudjman: cover up their crimes committed in the WWII,” said Professor Srboljub Zivanovic, President of the British Department of the International Slavic Academy of Arts and Science and one of the regular guests of the international conferences on WWII genocides, in the interview with Vecernje Novosti.
“They are now presenting Jasenovac as a ‘labor camp’ or, as they say ‘concentration and labor camp’,” notes Zivanovic. “This, of course, is only an interim stage and in a year or two it will turn into a nice and clean ‘labor camp’ only.”
“The entire cover-up campaign started when, during the operations ‘Flash’ and ‘Storm,’ Croats re-captured Jasenovac, but also since the Republika Srpska government headed by Milorad Dodik handed over to Washington all the archives and material from Jasenovac kept in Banja Luka, without even listing the inventory. Americans gave everything back to Croats, and we now have the entirely new ‘exhibit’ setup where, for example, there are no Roma victims at all.”
Jasenovac Death Camp Took More Than 730,000 Lives
“Out of 80,000 Gypsies who lived in the fascist Independent State of Croatia, only 422 were left in Croatia and 457 in Bosnia-Herzegovina!”, said professor. “In five or six books published in Croatia recently, one author claims no more than thousand people were killed in Jasenovac, the other that there may have been two thousand Jasenovac victims and the third one cites these two and concludes this is not quite correct, that there could have been up to 5,000 people killed in Jasenovac death camps.”
“Is it possible for anyone to be that brazen, when I held in my own hands at least that many children skeletons and only from the few graves,” asks professor Zivanovic who, in 1964, was a member of the team of court’s forensic anthropologists, assigned to determine the approximate number of the Croat genocide victims buried in Jasenovac mass graves.
“Our report was first published only in 1992 and it clearly states: 730,000 human skeletons on the territory of this death camp,” says Zivanovic, explaining that this research did not include the scores of victims whose bodies were sent to Serbia down the rivers of Sava and Danube, that he had personally seen as a six year old child in Serbian city of Smederevo.
The Full Truth is Only 50 Inches Below the Ground
Srboljub Zivanovic notes that the commission was set to fail, so all of the Belgrade and Zagreb professors refused to take part in it and he, as a young assistant professor was assigned to work with another three young men, two from Slovenia and one from Croatia.
“Before us, there was a group of court-assigned medical doctors from Ljubljana (Slovenia), who drilled the soil with electric drills and would mark as the grave site each place where they found human remains. Our group of forensic anthropologists opened parts of those grave sites, and that is how we established the number of 730,000 skeletons. On average, there were 27 skeletons per 2 square meters/yards,” says professor Zivanovic, adding that the sophisticated modern methods allow for much more precision, since “the full truth is no further than 120 centimeters [47 inches] below the ground.”
Vatican Policy of Exterminating Orthodox Serbs Alive and Well Since the 19th Century
“In the 19th century Vatican made a decision to exterminate the ‘heretical, schismatic’ Eastern Orthodox Serbs,” says Dr. Zivanovic. “The same policy is still in force, since the Serbian nation has to be in numbers, militarily and economically weaker than the Roman Catholic Croats and Slovenes. The common state was imposed on us two times, because we had to save these Roman Catholic nations twice from paying reparations after their defeat in two world wars,” stresses Oxford professor.
“Serbian teachers do not teach our children that this same policy is being enforced since the First Serbian Uprising [against the Ottoman Turks]; nowhere in Serbian textbooks is it written that Serbia was under Western sanctions since the Balkan wars until the First World War… Everyone is surprised when I tell them that France had sent 3,000 of its well-armed soldiers who, with La Marseillaise on their lips, were helping Muslim Turks to wipe out Karadjordje’s rebels freeing Serbia from Muslim occupation.”
Vatican’s Saints of Croatia
Recently, Vatican has proclaimed three Croats the saints of Roman church, says Dr Zivanovic.
“The first one is ‘blessed’ Dominik Mandic who headed the Croatian Confraternity of San Girolamo in Vatican. The entire work of this ‘saint’ was dedicated to the destruction of Yugoslavia and he seemed to have been successful. This man was one of the main organizers of the transport of Pavelic, Artukovic, Sakic and the other Croat WWII war criminals through the so-called ratlines to safety, to South America and United States,” says professor Zivanovic.
“The second major ideologue of the Croat slaughterhouse, who was continuously blessing ustasha bloody hands, was Alojzije Stepinac. He is now declared ‘blessed’ by the Vatican [by the previous pope Karol Wojtyla], he is being bowed to and people kneel in front of his grave in Zagreb.”
The Unspeakable Swineishness
“The third, latest Croat ‘saint,’ is Ivan Merc who educated butcher-friars, as a teacher in the monastery Petricevac near Banja Luka. In that very monastery Merc’s student, the infamous evil-incarnate known as Father Satan Majstorovic, organized a group of 12 ustashas headed by himself as the 13th, like Christ, and took them to a Serbian primary school to an unimaginable slaughter.”
“He asked teacher to bring forward her smartest pupil and when the little girl started to recite a poem, the Merc’s student slowly cut her throat in front of her teacher and all the other children, instructing his ustashas: ‘See how I am baptizing Serbian bastards. Let this blood fall on my soul, and I will forgive all of your sins for everything you do today.’ And more then 1,400 children, men and women were butchered by their knives during that day alone.”
Croat Genocide, Since Ustashi Were Croats
Slavko Goldstein, the president of the Croat whitewashed Jasenovac memorial who recently determined offhand that the final number of the victims in this death camp complex is 80,000 at the most, asked professor Srboljub Zivanovic during the Third International Conference on Jasenovac held in Jerusalem to stop using the term “Croat genocide” and speak about “Ustasha genocide” instead.
“I told him that Ustashi were Croats, not Nazis. Nazis were in Germany, Nazis were in Serbia because they occupied Serbia. There were Nazis in Croatia too, but only in the region occupied by Mussolini. Therefore, the Croat genocide is the correct term, and I am very sorry that it is so,” said Oxford professor.

Infectious Croat Lies Spread Through Western Agitprop Agencies
In Commentary, Croatia on May 29, 2007 at 5:00 amReuters, Washington Times Succumb to Croat Liar-Virus Accompanied by High Fever, Malice and Outlandish Blabber
If anyone still doubts that mainstream media is largely just a well oiled propaganda machine spewing lies, disinformation and loads of crap most of the time, here comes the latest proof in the shape of a rather ludicrous article by someone named Vlado Vurusic published in yesterday’s Croat daily that was readily accepted by British Reuters and Washington Times among others, and republished almost word-for-word without a single shred of evidence or an independent confirmation by any of distinguished news editors or reporters employed by their respective Agitprop Agencies.
It did not bother them in the least that some Croat Vurusic appeared to be the only man on Earth in possession of information that would certainly be a front page headline fit for any respectable news agency; they did not think it suspicious that this Best Informed Man on Earth (sadly employed only by the Croatian Jutarnji List), instead of citing one reliable, verifiable source claims his “information” comes from “semi-official sources” that are also “close to the Russian leadership” (?!); they didn’t stop to ponder the ridiculous claims this Croat came up with — no siree Bob! — they grabbed it with both hands and ran with it, shaking in their boots of sheer excitement and pleasure the Croat Lump of Coal produced, because it looked so shiny, whispering the sweet nothings in their ears, that the Serbs have been left out to hang by the Russians after all.
Supposedly respectable supposedly newspaper Jutarnji List’s supposedly journalist Vlado Vurusic wrote that Russians have suddenly agreed to let the US-French/German/British resolution pass in the UN Security Council, i.e. they have decided to allow the amputation of Serbian province of Kosovo-Metohija in exchange for the following trifles: to have Russian troops stationed in Serbian ghettos in southern province (?), to stipulate that newly independent Kosovo State will not be allowed to join the United Nations for two years (the preposterous idea was already suggested two weeks ago by the Albanian Brussels-stationed lobbying group ICG, only to be instantly rejected as border-line offensive by Russia) AND to have Ukraine and Georgia not accepted to NATO in June (?!).
Now, one can understand if Croat Vlado Vurusic is either stupid or so ill-informed he actually thinks that “Russian conditions” he conjured out of thin air would seem plausible, and it is easy to understand if Jutarnji List is run by stupid or ignorant editors who thought Vurusic’s figment of imagination seems fine, but it is really hard to understand Reuters, Washington Times and B92 editors would be THAT stupid, careless and uninformed about Russian position regarding Serbia and its southern province, to actually translate Vurusic’s steaming pile of cow dung and proudly exhibit it for their readers.
If they were not blinded by wishful thinking, perhaps they would have realized that, at this point, it would take WAY more for Russia to even consider betraying its firmly held principled, well-argued and highly ethical position, reiterated few thousand times thus far, certainly much more than being allowed to send few of their soldiers to Kosovo-Metohija, more than merely postponing independent Serbian province’s entry into the UN for two measly years and way more than delaying Ukraine’s and Georgia’s NATO membership for what? another month or two? The whole thing reads like idiot’s guide to political idiocy, but apparently Reuters, Washington Times, Scotsman and the rest thought it swell.
Russia: No Haggling — New Negotiations and Solution Acceptable to Belgrade
And, sure enough, early last evening representative of Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Andrey Vladimirovich Krivtov interrupted his dinner to have a good hearty laugh over Croat/UK hallucinations. “It is absolutely out of the question for Moscow to accept anything less than new negotiations and the compromise solution! Those are ludicrous disinformations, without a single grain of truth — Moscow does not even consider anything similar. We have not changed our position confirmed many times over. We have no intention to send our troops to Kosovo-Metohija province, but we do intend to push for new, direct talks between Belgrade and Pristina,” stressed Krivtov.
Regarding the more often floated Western suggestion of partitioning the province, Krivtov said he heard it for the first time from some German commentator, but believes those are merely personal opinions and nothing more. “We are preparing to discuss Kosovo-Metohija issue during the G-8 Summit,” said Krivtov, adding that southern Serbian province will doubtlessly be one of the main subjects of talks between presidents and government representatives during the meeting at the highest level in German seaside resort Heiligendamm. “We expect to be exposed to a severe pressure once again in order to speed up the process, but we also expect a Samara-repeat in that regard,” emphasized Krivtov.
Serbia’s daily Glas Javnosti (which sticks to reporting, rather than inventing the news, a practice Reuters might consider adopting) writes that, contrary to Croat, UK et al. wet dreams, Moscow diplomatic circles are discussing a plan according to which Russian Ambassador in Belgrade would take the document Serbian government adopted Friday — the Initiative for opening a new stage of talks — and submit it to Kremlin, after which Russia would present that document in Heiligendamm as a platform for the new negotiations between Belgrade and Pristina.
