1) it is not impossible that exiles from former Yugoslavia were 
instrumentals in the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999 - a big part 
of them certainly rejoiced in it.

i did not. my wife's mom has a house 500 m from military barracks in 
Podgorica - a possible military target that a cruise missile could 
have targeted and missed...

2) I researched a lot about Otpor. I like what they did. I know many 
people involved with Otpor. My NGO organized Otpor's demonstrations 
in front of the Yugoslav mission to the UN in New York. That's all 
that I am going to tell for now.

I don't know whether Andrej is correct or incorrect about Otpor-CIA 
connection. There is a lot of evidence to support his theory. On the 
other hand, it may be wrong. Otpor was pretty publicly supported by 
the State Depratment and given money by the US, and training by US ex-
military types at Budapest embassy... CIA may have been involved 
clandestinely - or maybe it was not. It is undeniable that Otpor 
would not have such a success if it was not for US public support, 
though. The bottom line is that I do not care: what Otpor achieved 
was a good thing, so if CIA once in a lifetime participated in 
something beneficial to the target society, why would we scream in 
terror?

3) What is WATJE? Yes, it is amusing that every country to which I 
come, turns rotten. Maybe I go to Denmark next, what do you think? 
Never go back. Never even turn back. Always look forward. There is no 
back, anyway. The place I left is no more. If I go to Croatia it 
would not be going back any more.

4) monsieur adolf is definitely still the benchmark - I mean there 
could be someone else chosen - like Stalin, or Pol Pot, or Idi Amin, 
or any of the numerous African, Arab or South-Asian maniac dictators. 
but they are all considered not-Western, and for the westerners the 
benchmark for anti-humanity is still adolf - for among westerners he 
is rarely superior in things inferior to human behavior.

5) please note that Andrej used words from the article - not my words 
- that you commented upon. I do not want to stimulate the economy. it 
is overstimulated already anyway. you are welcome to do it, though.
