The Los Angeles Times reports that the group has called on President Bill Clinton and Congress to take immediate action to ensure that veterans from the resistance receive the same benefits as those who served during the American Civil War.
If their demands aren't met, they plan to take the issue to the American Legion, the European Council, and the international community at large.
The partisans are demanding pension parity with American volunteers, equal rights for disabled veterans from both conflicts, and an end to what they call the 'falsification of history' within the education system.
It’s funny how these partisans are suddenly all about the money (it’s not like the Germans called them "bandits" for nothing). As if they haven't already taken enough over the last fifty years.
But really, what are we supposed to do about the criminals who were in their ranks? If we rounded up a dozen of them and sent them to The Hague, maybe they'd finally give Ante Gotovina a break.
