HARRISONS FLOWERS

[++]

I recommend the original film on Vukovar, i.e. Vukovar in the long version.  The long version exists but is hard to find with English subtitles.

This movie really depicts the atrocities that occured in late '91 in Vukovar. It tells how it really was in the way the Serbs invaded the town and the resistance the Croatian people offered in protecting their town for three months until they were eventually overran. Hopefully this movie will open up people's eyes to this event which was largely ignored around the world at the time it was taking place. The director did a fantastic job in settting the atmosphere and creating realism which really added to the movie. Vukovar was a symbol for the croatian people and their resistance against the advancing Serbian invaders. By the way, if you were curious to know what the Serb army was singing at the end of the movie it was - "bit ce mesa, bit ce mesa, klacemo hrvate" (meaning There will be meat, we are slicing up the Croatians!)

In other words, it's Croatian propaganda. I think I'll skip it. Hmm,
although maybe it might be nice to see some Croatian fascists get what they
deserve at the hands of the Serbian defenders of Yugoslavia.

"Last time I was here, I admitted that you could never forget the injustices
and inhumanity you suffered and that no outsider, including me, could force
you to forgive anyone," Clinton said. "But you should try. Not for them, but
for you. I want you to be free."

Thousands of cheering ethnic Albanians greeted Bill Clinton in Kosovo on
Friday as he made his second visit to the province since assembling a
coalition that halted a brutal crackdown by Serb forces.
Guarded by an armored personnel carrier and NATO (news - web sites)
peacekeepers, the former president's motorcade streamed past flag-waving
crowds as he traveled from the airport to the capital of the ethnically
divided province. He then strode into the city's university to receive an
honorary degree.
Clinton is adored by Kosovo's ethnic Albanian majority for leading the
coalition that halted the brutal crackdown on ethnic Albanians seeking
independence four years ago.
After donning a blue gown for the degree ceremony, the former president
urged students and other dignitaries to create a positive model in Kosovo
that would encourage people in the Middle East and the rest of the world
struggling with ethnic and religious problems.
He appealed to them to speak out against ethnic killings.
"You cannot build a new Kosovo on retributive violence," he said. "No one
ever gets even in this life."
Clinton also said he believed in "self-determination," winning applause from
ethnic Albanian leaders and students in the audience.
Kosovo's ethnic Albanian majority wants independence for the U.N.-run
province, while its Serb minority and Serbia's leadership want it to remain
part of Serbia.
"I want you to be able to create your own future," he said. "But, the only
real debate is how to do it."
Friday's visit marked Clinton's second trip to Kosovo. He last visited in
November 1999 — just months after about 6,000 U.S. troops were deployed in
the NATO-led peacekeeping mission here.
A 78-day NATO air war pushed out Serb forces under the command of former
Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic (news - web sites) in June 1999.
Milosevic is now on trial for war crimes at a U.N. tribunal in the
Netherlands for atrocities committed in Kosovo and other Balkan wars.
An estimated 10,000 ethnic Albanians were killed during the crackdown and
some 800,000 were forced out of their homes. They returned home after
NATO-led peacekeepers moved in.
But even now — four years after the conflict — ethnic tensions and violence
in Kosovo remain high.
About 200,000 Kosovo Serbs and other minorities fled Kosovo after the war,
fearing revenge attacks. Dozens of Serbs who remained have since been
killed.
"Last time I was here, I admitted that you could never forget the injustices
and inhumanity you suffered and that no outsider, including me, could force
you to forgive anyone," Clinton said. "But you should try. Not for them, but
for you. I want you to be free."
Clinton ended his visit by stopping at Camp Bondsteel, where 2,500 U.S.
troops are based.
He called on the soldiers to "help the children to overcome the hatred that
so dominated their parents' lives."
"In a world where you can't kill or occupy or jail every single enemy you've
got, ... we have to make more partners and fewer terrorists," he said.
"That's what you are doing here every single day."

You mean criminals. Criminals greeting another criminal.
