History / Sarmatia Europe - Could it be political reality? [183]

What about the 95 something percent Albanians living in Kosovo?

I wouldn't personally care who they are in terms of national background. They're occupants.

You know I frankly don't believe you that the Albanians were a tiny minority before 1999 and then grew to become a 95 to 98 majority in less than a decade...or else there wouldn't had been a Kosovo crisis in the first place.

They became the majority in the past century mostly in Tito's times. In fact they have nothing to do with a Kosmet.

Be honest, did you miss us ? :))

Rock was that Turkish "european" essence?

History / Sarmatia Europe - Could it be political reality? [183]

Well...it's a fact of life now!

It's just shouldn't have happened.

What would you advise to do about it?
(I'm really interested to hear your alternative....)

But you're right, that happenned by force, thus the only way to get back I think use force as well. There's one good Russian saying "protiv loma net priema, esli net drugogo loma". Can be literally rendered as: "there's no school against a crow-bar, unless you have another crow-bar". In other words "might makes right" how tremendously civilized Europe and the USA teach us.

WHAT??? The same holy Tito ruling the great and wonderful, holy Yugoslavia whose demise Crow still mourns???

Not that easy. Visual prosperity of the former Jugo were based on the permanent oppressing of the majority nation which doesn't work in a long perspective. Thinking that most of Serbs deify Tito is at least wrong. Tito was a very mixed-blessing figure on Balkans.

I'm sure the evil Westerners/Germans had their dirty hands innit if you look deep enough!

I like Germany and your culture, your heritage however German political top worked at the ground zero of Jugoslavia disintegration. All the ethnic conflicts in the territory were artificially inspired, well-planned and funded. Serbs unfortunatelly played a role of the scapegoat (as if it's their guilt in everything that has happenned there which is a blatant lie for ignorant, uneducated, plain people).

Well..the ethnic cleansing of millions of German civilians from the East shouldn't have happened to but it did!

What was that? Just to keep me informed... Live and learn how dedushka Lenin said.

Well, then Germany is the more civilized country than the lot of you!

That's what I was actually saying. I hope you understand that "civilized" is in inverted commas. This step of Germany frustrated me... ;(

Crap!

That was an amazing argument. Calm down, buddy... I'm your friend, won't hurt you.

Without the Jugos hating each other and not wanting a second to running away from each other NO ONE could have destroyed Yugoslavia!

You're right in that Jugo united pretty different folks but don't forget that most of atrocities kept fresh in one's memory occured in 90th. Germany as well as the US didn't surely need strong Slavic formation which Jugo was, that could potentially ally with your straight geostrategical enemy (I mean my country).

Sh!t happens, BB. You don't have to defend your politicians. Lie is their profession. Meanwhile every formation in this world studies its own interests which can be different than that yours.

PS: Where are the mass demonstrations in all ex-Yugoslavia by the people demanding a renewal of Jugoslavia??? Don't see any...do you??? How many of the new nations would give up their freedom and indepence for a second Yugoslavia???

Please spare me these childiish thoughts. Modern media-tools can make tomorrow hostile the one, who you bore fraternal feelings to yesterday.

on the Germans is just that

I thought I emphasized that I hadn't shifted the blame upon Germans. Would you like me to say that again?

It is so "crowish"...

Crow is considered wise bird in Russia.

UPD:

Come on Sasha...now you blame the mass media? EVERYBODY is guilty but the Jugos themselves???

Jugoslavian and particularly Serbian guilt is another story. I've never told they are pure angels or something. Genetically Serbs and Dinarics on the whole are very "explosive" nation.

it's the US

As for the US, I may say they as an obvious evil Empire kept up German initiative, mostly funded it and has done 90% of all dirty work (including bombing and other "peace", "democratic" and "civilized" actions).

I'm glad you liked it.

It was ONLY Tito and the communist regime what kept them together forcibly!

I didn't argue that. We're discussing post-Tito's events ended up with numerous casualties. From my perspective they were mostly inspired from outside rather than from inside by Serbian political acme. Also I don't think it's done any good to any of former-Jugo country. What's the result? Bunch of miserable, poor, dependent countries begging on the threshold of Europe? :) Too bad to admit... but that's how it is.

The disintegration would had happened anyway, sooner or later!

It' an argueable statement. However with no Western contribution it could have been less bloody for sure and of course getting back to our initial issue Kosmet stayed Serbian as it's supposed to be.

And how they must have hated the former Jugoslavia to now prefer to be rather independent but "beggars at the threshold of Europe"...makes one think...

Dependent. That's how I put it. Nowadays people's opinion all over the world means less than it used to be some time ago and things are only getting worse. At present there's no need for the government of some certain country to follow its people's will, the much better way is to covince them using media resources that they actually need what government wants. This influence, the permanent increasing impact of from outside one has to experience at any time. Hence there's no wonder for me that most of people in Europe (and in Russia also) think that things are the best the way they are at the moment.

Please explain!

The point is right here:

All the ethnic conflicts in the territory were artificially inspired, well-planned and funded. Serbs unfortunatelly played a role of the scapegoat (as if it's their guilt in everything that has happenned there which is a blatant lie for ignorant, uneducated, plain people).

Western payroll has kept this region in a state of endless war.

Sasha, what do you mean ?

Rock, I've recently heard a statement from Lodz about "europeaness" of Turkey. Your sentence made in the offensive and unhewn manner is unlikely to look good together with the word "Europe" (considering the best sense that the word "Europe" can bear). Long story short: I think you were being rude and came up with not the best example of how conscious Turkish people could be.

Well...I dunno in which world you live Sasha, but certainly not in mine!
In my world politicians are dependend on the opinion of their people or they get kicked out.
And having diversive media everyone is able to build their own opinion...

BB, any PR-agent (if you have one among your friends) will tell how everything works right now. It's no longer a conspiracy theory or something professional bullsh!tting of people is more like a science, very well-paid science. If you don't take some basic things I am of none help to you.

Everybody wants to mean something, everyone wants to see his opinion taken into consideration. All the process of manipulation is based on this will. Every time they give you what you want... of course you don't want to think that you're able to change nothing... so you're actually almost done for them... they only need to do a slight move to finally prove you that Frau Merkel or Gospodin Putin is what you want. Of course majority thinks they have enough info to build a plausible opinion and they loooooove to hear and always ready to believe that the government on the neighborhood is vigorously bullsh!tted (unlike to them). Tra-ta-ta... how convenient... :)

I am really surprised to see you've got so superficial knowledge of that...

Tell me one thing Sasha...do you think if the evil West wouldn't exist you would live all happily together? :)
Who would be your next scapegoat?

What a naive question? Of course not... Don't get me wrong. I don't want to boil everything down to the total guilt of the West and I don't want to raise new forms of victimhood ("german victimhood"). Take it easy. Everything has its West and East side. just there's permanent confrontation of some groups of people. The strongest takes everything. Don't forget "might gives a right"... You had a might and you divided Jugo. If Serbs once happen to have a might... they will probably cut your country or the US into pieces. Don't cry then... ok? :) And I assure you everything will be like "it was only german guilt"... in this case. "Pobediteli pishut istoriu". The winners write the history. Forget about the justice, in the world scale it has never existed and never will.

If we then in the 90's had this power what could we do now?
Hmm....let's see...what to destroy and divide next....hmmm...

Well... frankly speaking your government would love to see Russia torn apart but the problem here is that you also need natural resources and Russian is not Serbia.

Well Serbia is invited to join the EU once they fulfill the requirements. Alot of Serbs would like that....

Exactly. They're not robot, they're also tired of war, people want to live, to have families even at the price of Kosmet. Yet many doesn't agree to exchange Kosovo for EU. I'm with the last ones... However I wouldn't blame them, if they chose first option. I don't have a right.

How came you are being so bitter and cynical?

I'm just calling a spade a spade. Besides you didn't seem to comprehend my notion beforehand when I used other words.

Well, believe this too...you can fools some people for long but not all forever!

You need neither all, nor forever. You bluntly need the majority. Everything can serve on purpose. If there's a need to show nude girls non-stop on TV to make the majority vote in necessary way they will show them no matter you like it or not. And you can't call them stupid for that, cause they're the majority thence they know it better. :) Isn't it stupid? If you want to know my point... I don't the idea of election everyone over 18 can take part in.

They don't need you forever either. There's always a moment when every kid realize Santa Klaus doesn't exist, at that moment one fairy-tale replaced by another, more plausible.

Some facts are just that, facts! And no amount of media brainwashing can them make true or go away for always!

Well... as far as we talk about things like "Medvedev is a president of Russia" there's no room to make anything up, but in the reality things are more complicated and may be easily tweaked.

Not every uncomfortable facts and events are the fault of some conspiracy of western govs and media...

Some are of Eastern blame. :)

you should look the previous posts of Crow about Turks. Some of them were far of being rude, they were insulting.

If he jumped out the opened window, would you follow them?

So you agree that girls from Georgia smell like katchapuri?

Where did you learn what hachapuri was? :) Did you try it (let's put aside Georgian women for now), South?

Yes, and also, the Georgian males smell like chacha.

That's like a strong grape wine (or it's better to put it "vodka").

You're guys seem to know a lot about caucasian food&drinks. :)

I have met some of them.They are called Rossopontioi in Greek.Like Black Sea people of greek origin who lived in Russia.

We even have one georgian Greek among our oligarchs. Ivan Savvidi. Maybe you heard of him... :)

Rock, your closest relatives are Azerbaijanians who makes the largest crime family in Moscow and I'd definitely prefer to see there any Europeans instead of them causing most of crimes commited in Moscow.

Meanwhile, Tatars are also our relatives and there are millions of tatars living in Russia. Do you have any problems with them ?

As long as one keeps himself within bounds of a decent behaviour, I am ok with him. Unspoken fact is that oriental minority causes the majority of all crimes...

I think, this is the same for European nations.

So that it seems like it's not the exactly same for European nations. And I'm afraid it's not only about that you might have smelled differently.

I like Turks much more than Russians ...

They have kind of democracy

I kinda love that. :)

It is true. I have been to Russia and Turkey. Turks are like ... Italians

I said that we did not care much about being "European", especially considering your criteria of "europeanness".
I didn't understand what you wanted to say by the video you posted. Your personal preference?

somebody told me that it's tradition for all Turkish men to shag a goat before they get to shag a woman, that is how they learn their amazing skills

Heard of that too... :)

I have already stated that these two countries need to become closer, economically, but at the same time, they need to be mutually respectful.

Genealogy / Need info on my Russianized/Ukrainianized last name. [25]

My family surname was changed in this way. At this time about 2 million Polish civilians were deported to Siberian Gulags to work in the frozen wasteland (why, well they needed slaves as no one else volunteered for the jobs). All people's documents were translated from Polish (English like alphabet characters) too this Cyrillic type letters. Of course a lot of Polish letters have no direct letter in Russian.

Moja Dorogaja, Polish names in Russia are "readone" the same way. If it's Pashkovska it's likely to be "Пашковская" (Pashkovskaja), if it's male gender Pashkovsky then it's likely to be Пашковский (Pashkovskiy). There's no really serious transformation.

History / Why official Poland attacked Serbians in 1999? Was it worth? [49]

poland didn't attack serbia, poland came to the defense of the bosnians from your guns. that is all.

They were just used as another american (well... it's too easy to say "american".. in fact it's more complicated) tool. Where were Poles when there was a time to defend Serbs?

We all believe now, this photogragh explains everything happened between 92-95.
Bosnian army killed one Serbian soldier during this period and Serbians got angry.

Be honest or GTFO of this thread. Your "enlightened" opinion is of none importance on Serbian issue. Better do football predictions. Oh... and sorry for being rude.
