As far as getting Russian funding, Aleksandar Vasilevich Konuzin can point you in the right direction.Teddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731913495080613195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-38403181204740971152012-01-24T08:34:45.330-08:002012-01-24T08:34:45.330-08:00Yes, on the government level.

First, a movement or a party has to get in the government. <br />Otpor is an example of that, although not an adequate one. Otpor helped the people interested in changes become the government. <br />Otpor wasn't a mass movement or even a grassroots movement, but a CIA-organized and trained group of activists that used direct action to expedite the events that helped turn the popular opinion against Milosevic. Kostunica beat Milosevic, not Otpor, but Otpor did aid the effort. Otpor, however, was a CIA-financed operation and as such, it was not organically Serbian and it was not truly patriotic since it worked for a foreign government hostile to Serbia. <br />I'm not saying their tactics weren't something to consider and apply and I get your point there, but, again, Otpor didn't change the foreign or domestic policy, they played a role in changing the regime with another regime. What I'm talking about in my post is changing the attitude before any of that can take place.<br />If you are able to get Russian funding, let me know.Srbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954978311211803253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-37737168091152760202012-01-23T19:02:10.669-08:002012-01-23T19:02:10.669-08:00At the government level???

It's time to run the old OTPOR GAG on the regime in Beograd. If one looks hard enough, one may find funding from a NGO or two run by some of our Russian cousins.Teddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731913495080613195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-88462613955084643922012-01-22T21:25:30.170-08:002012-01-22T21:25:30.170-08:00That would be a decision made at the government le...That would be a decision made at the government level. What are the ways common people can organize themselves to counter the propaganda? There are a lot of freelancers out there, some doing good, some playing into the hands of the likes of Jolie, but there's no organized, strategic effort. Common Serbs have the same obligation towards Serbdom as Boris Tadic. He's got more power, but until we've done what's in our power, we can't say we are much better than him. History will judge us both.Srbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954978311211803253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-78974271506169263382012-01-21T18:02:26.304-08:002012-01-21T18:02:26.304-08:00Yes there are ways.

Since the Serbs are being attacked by a variety of Western backed alliances (NATO, EU, NGO's, CFR, etc.,), the opposition parties, entities, etc., MUST align themselves with the BRIC's. No more of this Non-aligned movement nonsense.Teddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07731913495080613195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-86784000427826565372012-01-21T10:51:07.535-08:002012-01-21T10:51:07.535-08:00And there should be, regardless of Belgrade, regar...And there should be, regardless of Belgrade, regardless of the difficulties posed by Serbia's non-participation in its own defense...

If you look at her as a Hollywood ditz, you'll miss the real effect of her movie. She's not some Hollywood star that took up humanitarian causes for snobbish or benevolent reasons - she is an agent of the American foreign policy.Srbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06954978311211803253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-19716312035685036222012-01-21T09:24:00.916-08:002012-01-21T09:24:00.916-08:00The fact that anyone takes Angelina Jolie seriousl...The fact that anyone takes Angelina Jolie seriously in a political forum is completely baffling to me. She is an overindulged celebrity who naively scrapes the surface of pet foreign "projects" of hers, makes some sort of obvious statement about it, and then moves on to the next one.<br />The problem is that so many average Americans actually think that she is some sort of serious "face" for the U.N.<br />To me, it just solidifies my long standing belief that the U.N. is a joke and a sham.radmilahttp://my2secondshelflife.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220576471648313696.post-3557752046732804572012-01-21T01:54:17.394-08:002012-01-21T01:54:17.394-08:00Ah, but to be entirely fair, Vučelić is actually d...Ah, but to be entirely fair, Vučelić is actually doing some good in Serbia now (his weekly being a voice of reason among the madness). <br /><br />But I get your point: there is no organized effort to combat this sort of propaganda. And there should be. <br /><br />There's a tiny little problem of the quisling regime in Serbia itself doing everything to destroy resistance and help Serbophobes everywhere. That needs to be fixed first, before anything else can become more than a holding action.CubuCokohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14128683147101484237noreply@blogger.com
