The infamous International Community has been trying for years to give birth to some new Yugoslavia-like integration, to subvert Croatian interests, to find excuses for Serbia, save Milosevic and convince the world that their initial prediction about the developments in Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia were correct. The manufacturing of "truth" is especially difficult when it is not written by the side which won a war. Nevertheless, the truth has no mercy, regardless of who wrote it, which makes these greater-worldly forgeries absurd. That's why the trial against General Blaskic is so miserable and unjust. That's why the indictment has been written, corrected, archived and again reactivated after a pause. Of course, we recognize in this process a training of justice, not justice itself; it is shameful for the Hague Tribunal to engage it this instead of dealing with real crimes and criminals.
We cannot but remember Blaskic in our celebrations. We cannot forget that in the past year they started a trial against all of us. We are guilty because we so spectacularly and successfully defended ourselves; we are guilty because we withstood an aggression, the pressure from refugees, division of Croatia, diplomatic terrorism (which hasn't stopped and is even stronger then before), arms embargo, deliberate suspension of credits and investments, all sorts of strikes and demonstrations which were organized from abroad, and hundreds of financial scams. (...) We pulled through all of that, we didn't fall. Only our unity has suffered, nothing else, and that is not enough for them.(...) The wrath of the imperial community culminated around the end of last year, when the [planned] chain of events broke: the demonstrations in Zagreb and Sarajevo fell trough, and those in Belgrade became too massive. Besides, Croatia was demanding that the world finally fulfills its old obligations. Finally, Croatia had enough of doing more than others and having to promise that it would "adjust". We live in a time when we quickly get bored by achieving best standards in legal protection of minorities, which only formally exist in Europe. The only importance of the minority rights is that they can be used to blackmail the "small" nations.(...) Finally, we want to experience real reintegration and return of our people, instead of Serb butchers, to Vukovar. We want that barbarians who mistreat Croatian believers and priests in the Danube valley region, even on Christmas eve, be put in jail; those barbarians who are so arrogant to break windows on a monastery in the center of Zagreb on Christmas eve. In our state, in our homeland Croatia, in our Beautiful Land, we are still in the position to ask for that which belongs to us. We demand that the existing laws be implemented, voting rights in the Danube valley region only for those who lived there in 1991 and nothing else. Hence, we are again irritating the international community. Again, we are impossible, too early recognized, norm breaking Croatia, which "doesn't follow the procedure". That's why angry Kornblum rages about Croatian legitimacy, public demands, and obligations which his superior had assumed. That's why he is again spending more time in Belgrade than in Zagreb, why he is worried about Serbs and the return of the occupier [Serbs], and not about the massive return of their victims. Where are those Croatian "humanitarian organizations", or those from abroad, who will protest peacetime devastation of Catholic altars in the protected zone in 1996(!) and who will ask how it is possible to shoot at monasteries in the very center of the Croatian metropolis. The Catholicism has been shot at for a long time. The perpetrators are not drunken fools: they are urban, disguised Chetniks in well organized hordes.
(...)Even poets and writers (PEN), not caring about the purity of art but engaging in dirty international politics, are searching for ways to discredit Croatia, get rid of patriotic members and bring new internationalist members to the organization. Hence, everyone should jump from its corner at a prescribed moment and according to the orders from abroad. They will have the same target... Croatia is still their eternal prey.
(...)What will happen when the International Community finally has to deliver the Croatian Danube valley region to the Croatian refugees? What will happen when the elections in Vukovar are finally Croatian and not Serb and when foreign soldiers finally, to the last one, have to leave the Croatian soil? There will be so much rage!(...) What will happen when, in spite of shocking support by the president of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts Ivan Supek the trial to the employees of the "Samaritan" Soros regarding the illegal finances of his Open Society Foundation is finished, as has already happened in Italy and USA?(...) Who will then distribute Judas' coins under the table? England or France? Will anyone still believe that the American drug dealer, Soros, is a "humanitarian donor"? Or, will they believe in his profitable "multiculturalism"?(...)
