Nisu mi dnevnici pri ruci pa ne znam precizno datum, ali bilo je između 8. i 15.12.1992, dakle pola godine od početka rata. Radio sam reportažu o snimanju nove epizode #TopListaNadrealista na @MultimedijaBHRT. Bila je glad, civili su masovno ginuli, pali su Doglodi, Bare, Azići/2 Image
2/ #UnitedNations general Srboljub Mackenzie dozvolio je Mladiću da preko aerodromske piste prebaci u borbu 4 tenka. TLN okrene na šegu i ispjeva pjesmicu:
"Preko piste se vozaju,
tenkove krit ne moraju,
četnik ti je pravi džiber,
prosvjeduje Stjepan Šiber".)
Vrlo je napeto, /3 Image
3/ svima jasno da #Sarajevo očas može pasti i da svakoga može ubiti granata sa Pala na kojima je Nele. Neizostavno pitanje o Neletu. Svi do jednog kažu "ma ima malo dijete, neka je otišao, morao je, nije on četnik". Kaže mi @BoroKontic "čini mi se da su se ovog puta zajebali" END Image

On this day, we lost not just a legend, but a good man. ▪️

On his resignation from the Yugoslav national team at the beginning of the aggression against BiH: “My country doesn't deserve to play in the European Championship. On the scale of human suffering, I cannot reconcile… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Born in #Sarajevo in 1941, he started playing for the first team in the 1959/1960 season. He played for a total of 11 years collecting 250 appearances and 75 goals.

In 1970 he went to France, where he played for Strasbourg, Sedan and Valenciennes. Image
He ended his playing career in 1978, after which he became a very successful coach. He successfully led #Zeljeznicar from 1978 to 1986. He was also the manager of the Yugoslav national team, Partizan, Panathinaikos, #Sturm, JEF United, and his last coaching engagement was #Japan. Image

Zbir glasova nenacionalnih stranaka (SDP, Reformista, DSS, SSO i JI) na izborima za Vijeće opština Bosne i Hercegovine 1990. na nivou opština
Najveći uspeh Tuzla 61%
Najmanji Kupres 4,80%.
U 6 opština Zapadne Hercegovine nije bio nijedan HDZ kandidat Image
Nenacionalne stranke u #BiH tada su dobile zbirno preko 50% glasova u zoni #Tuzla i njenoj rudarskoj okolini (Banovići i Srebrenik) kao i Novom #Sarajevo . Takođe ogroman uspeh u Varešu, Kladnju, Brezi, Centru Sarajeva, Lukavcu i zanimljivo u Šekovićima.
Vrlo je zadivljujuće kako su se rudarska i pojedina mesta sa velikom vojnom industrijom odupirala nacionalnim strankama (da li možda osećaj zahvalnosti socijalizmu za razvoj, jak direktorski kadar i uticajne ličnosti.....?)

💥💥My latest: British Psychological Warfare Threatens Balkan Conflict💥💥

#MI6 #BritishIntelligence #Bosnia #RepublikaSprska #Yugoslavia #Serbia #Balkans #BalkanWar

kitklarenberg.substack.com/p/british-psyc…
In 2020, in total secret, British intelligence ran a secret psychological warfare campaign to sell extremely harsh #COVID19 lockdown restrictions to a sceptical Bosnian public. The Embassy in #Sarajevo used local PR firms, and FCO contractor Albany for the purpose. ImageImageImageImage
Albany is a veteran of British psychological warfare operations the world over, most notoriously in Syria, where it set up fake opposition media assets and provided "communications support" to violent armed groups, in order to circulate pro-regime change propaganda globally. Image

A #Sarajevo la chiamano the snipers'road, la strada dei cecchini. La si deve percorrere per raggiungere l'ospedale, lo stesso dove vengono portate, il più delle volte inutilmente, le loro vittime.
L'ultimo arrivato è un bambino biondo, centrato in piena fronte da una pallottola. Image
Il sangue non cola più, impregna i capelli, ormai coagulati e quasi congelato per il gran freddo. Stava giocando sulla neve, a meno di un chilometro dall'ospedale,risaliva un piccolo dosso trascinandosi dietro una tavola di legno e poi giù, strillando di allegria su quella slitta Image
improvvisata.
Un colpo, e il bambino è morto. [...]
C'è qualcosa, nella guerra del cecchino, che fa più orrore delle bombe.
Attraverso il binocolo del fucile, il bambino biondo lo si può vedere grande grande, come se fosse lì accanto. Lo si può vedere giocare, fare smorfie nel Image

Hoy es el día de la estadidad de #Bosnia Herzegovina, aniversario de la sesión de 1943 en que el Consejo Estatal Antifascista para la Liberación Nacional declaró voluntad autonómica.
Pero también es el aniversario de la muerte de #Maradona.

¿Hay relación entre Diego y Bosnia?🤔
En principio, este hilo es la segunda parte del de más temprano
#Bosnia declaró su independencia en 1992 y ese mismo año nació su asociación nacional de fútbol. Pero digamos que, de facto, en la realidad, no fue un país independiente hasta 1995, con el final de la guerra.

El 1° partido oficial fue contra Albania, el 30/11/1995.

Hoy es el Día de la Estadidad de #Bosnia Herzegovina, así que aprovechamos para un pequeño hilo con algunas curiosidades de, quizás, el país más curioso de los Balcanes 🇧🇦
Bosnia fue la república más étnicamente mixta de Yugoslavia, con muchos grupos pero 3 particularmente relevantes: serbios (cristianos ortodoxos), croatas (católicos) y bosníacos (musulmanes). Eslovenia, Croacia y Macedonia declararon su independencia en 1991. Bosnia, el 1/3/92.
Buena parte de la guerra de 1992-95 se explica por esa mixtura étnica en el marco de la disolución yugoslava: serbios, croatas y bosníacos querían quedarse con la mayor parte de territorio posible ¿Quiénes lograron más avances? Bueno, digamos que los serbios.

(1) Here is a great analysis I've found on @klixba forums that, IMNHO, properly explains what is going on and what will happen in #Sarajevo and #Bosnia - Bosniak #Ghaza in the middle of #Europe - from the kitchen of our friendly chefs @OHR_BiH and @USEmbassySJJ
@klixba @OHR_BiH @USEmbassySJJ (2) It's written in Bosnian, so make sure you use either the inbuilt Twitter translate or some other similar app (like Google Translate)
@klixba @OHR_BiH @USEmbassySJJ (3) Napisao sam prije par mjeseci da je čudno i indikativno da se u zadnjih pola godine-godinu učestalo održavaju vježbe za zaštitu i evakuaciju američke ambasade i dobio par podrugljivih komentara. Ali realno, ko to predstavlja prijetnju američkoj ambasadi pa toliki oprez?

Un petit thread Dragan Čović, élections, sécession des ethno-nationalistes croates ? Moi je dis OUI !
Je vous ai souvent parlé de la réforme électorale que Čović veut imposer en BiH, basée sur le concept de représentation légitime des peuples constituants de BiH. C'est 1 notion inventée par Č, elle n'est nulle part dans la Constitutions.
Pour rappelle, les présidents bosniaques, croates et serbes sont ISSUS de ces communautés, ils ne les représentent pas. Donc le daydreaming de Č de devenir le Guide Suprême des Croates à vie ne s'appuie sur rien, aucun texte, aucune loi.

There’s been discussions about #time and #accountability lately, and I’ve gotten questions about it. “When could trials begin?” “Could #Putin be prosecuted? When? Where” I’ll leave the “where” aside now but here’s a short 🧵on time. #Russia #Ukraine #Justice
There is, naturally, a sense of urgency when we see injustice and victims like those in #Bucha, #Mariupol, etc. People want justice and they want it now. But time can be a friend of justice, not always an enemy, especially in leadership cases. Let me tell you how.
In one article, I talk about #RadovanKaradzic and #RatkoMladic - high-ranking officials charged with crimes in Bosnia, e.g. the siege of #Sarajevo and the genocide in #Srebrenica. They were fugitives for years and most of us did not expect them to be arrested. We almost gave up.

ICYMI @AP and @frontlinepbs are gathering, verifying & documenting evidence of potential war crimes in #Ukraine, including attacks on hospitals, schools, residential areas & other civilian structures following #Russia's invasion pbs.org/wgbh/frontline…
@AP’s own reports include visual evidence along w/ witness accounts of alleged atrocities. @AP journalists outside #Ukraine have confirmed details of other attacks- interviewing survivors &verifying authenticity of videos, photos posted online by officials and residents.
The @AP/@frontlinepbs online database will continue to be updated as long as the conflict lasts. The goal is to provide an independent accounting of events, apart from potentially inflated claims by advocates or misinformation spread by state-backed propaganda.

After WWII Croats #Ustashe once again said - "Danke Deutschland"
Western Fake News Media - anti-Serb propaganda on Dubrovnik

"There is certainly an orchestrated effort on the part of the Croatian and Slovenian, Austrian and German media to portray the Serbs as a bunch of holding Byzantine uncivilized barbarians."
Fake News media, US elections above peace

"Influential columnists on both sides of the Atlantic continued to write that Dubrovnik had been destroyed, public opinion was tilted against the Serbs and towards Croatia's political goal - recognition as an independent state."

Sarajevo is...
by Aleksandar Hemon

The taxi driver who drove me from the airport and, when I observed that the leaves were already beginning to fall, replied: “Why, yes, first watermelons, then lessons,” which, on close analysis,

#Sarajevo
@SashaHemon
I understood as representing a magic formula to describe the gradual approach of autumn. The moment when, from Jekovac, after the Ramazan cannon fires to indicate sunset, you see the lights on all the minarets of Sarajevo simultaneously ignite.
The clatter of the first morning tram, echoing through the empty streets of the city. The coldness of the buildings from the Austro-Hungarian era and the staircases inside them, with their treads worn by the soles that have climbed them for more than a century.

Al Harbi Teufik came in 1992. to serve in Muslim #Bosnia Army as a jihadi warrior with Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 citizenship. In the verdict of the Court of BiH 🇧🇦 in the Alic case, it was confirmed that he also killed Basic Branko, Devetak Mirko, Stambolija Petar, and Borosina Pero.⤵️
After the war in Bosnia, he moved back to Saudi Arabia without prosecution, but it was not the end of his military and jihadi journey since 2013. he became one of the highly ranked #ISIS officials in #Syria with new name Sultan Al Safri al Harbi nicknamed “Abu Nassar Al-Harbi”⤵️

On the 2nd of May in 1992, JNA (Yugoslav People’s Army) from #Serbia supported by local #Serbian militants tried to deal the final blow to the #Bosnian defenders, occupy #Sarajevo and force legal government to surrender.

It was a beautiful sunny day...

2 MAY 1992
That morning was calm & peaceful, just the day before people were having May the 1st, Labor Day, celebrations. Nobody was expecting to witness the start of the Siege, that would last almost next four years, 1,425 days

It started in the afternoon of 2 May 1992.

#Siege
2 MAY 1992
Serb forces established a total blockade of the city. They blocked the major access roads, cutting supplies of food and medicine. The Sarajevo public transportation network was hit at its main locations and throughout the city.

The daily #Coronavirus thread is underway.

If Friday turned out to be fearful, we can only hope it's not a shocking Saturday.

More and more countries and regions heading back into lockdown as #Covid19 spreads quicker then the vaccines.

And already today new record - read on..
The first record to report is from crisis-torn #Brazil

For the 3rd successive day over 2,000 deaths.
But it's new #Covid19 cases rewriting the record books today with 84,047 positive tests, that's 12% more than the week before

2,152 more deaths takes total fatalities over 275k
Almost a record for #Norway too tonight.

Over 300 more Covid patients have been admitted to hospital in the last 2 days alone.

To this date no one in four #WesternBalkan countries recieved a #CovidVaccine:

#BiH🇧🇦, #Kosovo🇽🇰, #Montenegro🇲🇪 & #NorthMacedonia🇲🇰

Many rightfully ask why

In #BiH, for example, authorities relied on #COVAX, #EU🇪🇺 procurement mechanism patience of citizens (?!)👇🏼
Following an agreement of BiH governments in charge for health matters by November 2020 state level authorities (kind of) finalised paperwork to be able to order 1,232,000 dosis of vaccines via #COVAX + 892.000 dosis via an #EU procurement mechanism.

balkaneu.com/bih-finalizes-…
Already in December 2020 authorities in #BiH made it clear they had no plans to try to negotiate, lobby & get vaccines via direct purchase. They defended their decision by claiming it is safer & cheaper (+legal) to wait & hoped citizens would be patient.

The face and back of #jihad in #Europe and the world. Muslim Brotherhood, violent and civilizational jihad. The case study of #Bosnia, the #SDA political party and its MFA Bisera Turković. Who is she indeed?
During the war in #Bosnia Turkovic was an ambassador of #Bosnia to #Croatia and one of the main persons for the transport of mujahideen warriors over #Zagreb #Split to #Bosnia. This was also underlined in 2005 by the #US congressman Franks from #Arizona.
Mrs. Turkovic has strong roots in foreign relations especially in the #USA 🇺🇸 since her grandfather Mehmed Resic was one of the founders of the branch of "Dzemijetul Hajrije", 1st Bosnian Muslim society in the USA in #Wilpen #Pennsylvania where he was working as a miner.

Heute ist die Luftqualität in der bosnischen Hauptstadt #Sarajevo wieder besonders schlecht. Auch gesunden Menschen wird vor längeren Aufenthalten im Freien abgeraten. Warum ist das immer wieder so? Infos im Thread.👇 Image
Sarajevo liegt in einem Kessel zwischen den Bergen Trebevic, Igman und Bjelasnica und giftige Luft kann nur schwer abziehen. Sind die oberen Luftschichten wärmer als die im Tal, liegt Rauch als stinkende Wolke auf der Stadt  – tagelang. Image
Autoabgase und Industrie tragen ihren Teil bei. Doch Hauptverursacher der schlechten Luft sind minderwertige Heizöfen, die in vielen Haushalten in der Stadt lodern und mit Kohle, Holz und auch Abfällen befeuert werden. Schätzungsweise 35000-40000 Haushalte in Sarajevo heizen so. Image
