Once again the United States has sold out the good people and rewarded the
bad. I am speaking of the recognition of Kosovo as an independent state by
our government.
As a bit of background information, the Jewish Defense League was the only
activist Jewish organization to support the Serbian people and their right
to their ancestral homeland during the war that dissolved Yugoslavia during
the 1990s. While we did not approve of alleged war crimes by some Serbians,
we understood they felt they were entitled to settle the score with their
Nazi-loving Croatian and Bosnian neighbors. . . . During World War II,
Yugoslavia signed the Tripartite Pact with Nazi Germany and the other Axis
Powers, an act that resulted in a coup d’etat. A new government was
installed and promptly withdrew the country’s support for the Axis. This
enraged Hitler so much that he sent his soldiers into Yugoslavia and took
over the country in a matter of days. The Nazis dissolved the government and
replaced it with a puppet state led by Milan Nedic. Under his leadership,
several Nazi concentration camps were established, such as Banjica and
Sajmiste.
Next door in Croatia, the Nazi-lovers there were massacring Serbs, Jews and
Roma (formerly called Gypsies). In the 1970s, the Jewish Defense League
discovered a Croatian Nazi war criminal, Andrija Artukovic, living the good
life in the Surfside Colony near Long Beach, California, and was in large
part responsible for the revocation of his American naturalization status.
JDL Chairman Irv Rubin personally escorted the father of L.A. radio
personality Bill Handel to the federal courthouse so that he could testify
against Artukovic. Before intervention by my late husband, witnesses were
being harassed by Artukovic supporters and family members. The case took
several years to complete because of pressure by Croatians living in the
United States and members of the Catholic Church. In his role as minister of
the interior in the Nazi puppet state of Croatia, Artukovic supervised the
genocide hundreds of thousands of Jews, Serbs and Roma. After he was
stripped of his American citizenship, Artukovic was returned to Yugoslavia
where he was sentenced to death for his war crimes. Because Artukovic was in
ill-health, the court there said he was too infirm to be executed, and the
Nazi murderer died in a prison hospital. Croatians were infamous for their
worship of the Nazis and their brutality to their fellow man, like hang
their neighbors on meathooks in kosher butcher shops.
And as far as Bosnians are concerned, they are mostly Muslims. During World
War II, a proud fighting unit was the 20,000 member Bosnian Muslim 13th
Waffen-SS Division Hanzar. Hanzar means “to slit the throat” in Arabic, and
that’s what these animals did to 300,000 Serbs and 60,000 Bosnian Jews. They
also killed thousands of Americans in Italy, where they fought against the
5th U.S. Army division for six months. None of those animals faced war
crimes tribunals for their actions. By the way, their spiritual leader was
Hitler’s bootlicker, Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, better known as the Grand
Mufti of Jerusalem.
Back to Kosovo. Kosovo is made up of 92% ethnic Albanians, whose religion is
predominantly Islam. There are over two million people living in Kosovo, but
no Jews live there. They used to. Sixty or so years ago, their neighbors
made sure they wouldn’t return. And what happened to all the Serbians who
used to live there? According to history professor Carl Savich, ethnic
cleansing has been perpetrated on the Serbian people throughout the history
of the region, first by the Ottoman Turks, then the Albanians, the Nazis,
the Communists, and now by the Western nations that have accepted the
Kosovans claim that the land is theirs. In reality, taking Kosovo away from
the Serbs is the Albanian dream of linking Albania with Kosovo (are Bosnia
and Herzegovina next?) in order to create a Greater Albania.
And what about the Serbs? The Serbs share a tragic past with the Jewish
people. They have lived in peace and friendship with the Jews. They have
died alongside us. What is wrong with the world? Despite historical proof,
the world puts the screws to the Serbs just as it does to us. It’s a crying
shame.
