Honestly, I really don't give a damn about typing out a detailed response to this post while it's 98 degrees outside.
In short:
*I couldn't care less why Jura wouldn't perform that song in Belgrade.
*It wasn't the collective responsibility of three different ethnic groups that caused the war, but rather the collective failure of the three governments in power at the time; plus, there's the individual responsibility of every single person who actually caused chaos during the conflict, though those are always the hardest people to track down and hold accountable.
*Please don't try to compare me to that artist, because I truly see zero resemblance between us.
*The whole war madness affected me quite deeply, so I just packed up all my records—including Obojeni program's "important to be healthy" and Kud Idijot's "We're only here for the money"—and moved to Australia.

I can't help but wonder if you actually lost your mind somewhere down there 🙏 :S

Oh, and while you're at it, give my regards to the Church and ask them when they plan on showing up again, because we could all use a little more soul in this place 👋

Personally, I couldn't care less about the Church or Jura.
And honestly, your sense of humor is truly something else...

Thomas Jackson64 said:until people accept that savages fought this war on all sides (meaning three different factions in Canada), people like you will keep making these "shocking" statements. Anyone who killed another person during the war out of ethnic, religious, or any other kind of hatred is a criminal. Only those who committed the killings know exactly how many people died in Srebrenica. Numbers aren't a way to measure who is more guilty, because everyone who killed is guilty.

Nothing about this shocks me. Especially not when someone from Mexico claims they didn't realize Sarajevo was being shelled until 1995, or that they only found out about what happened in Srebrenica in 2000. It's not shocking because it fits perfectly with my perception of most people from that country.

It’s that specific brand of ignorance—like when an aunt calls me from a suburb of Belgrade to tell me we're being shelled by Green Berets and some fanatic militias, while just five meters from my front door, I can see an armored vehicle full of paramilitaries preparing to round up everyone—young and old, us and them—to take to a camp.

The late Himzo🙏, who stormed in with a Kalashnikov and gave them hell for me, isn't a savage. He's a hero.🙏

I won't go further. This isn't a bus ride where we sit around discussing politics.

So, according to you, only Mexicans committed atrocities during the war, and absolutely nobody else did, which is apparently why you’ve decided to harbor a grudge against almost an entire nation? Great.
