Serbia etc. thread 3

Yes. Wasn't there a 'UFO' incident there a few years ago?

I don't know, but what I do know is that there was a great air show disaster in Ramstein in 1988, with 70 dead and about 1,000 injured.

Crow is wise bird.

Man, what could possible go wrong on Balkan?

Abundance of worlds purest and richest lithium in Serbia

By having around 10% of world`s lithium total reserves and, with it in its purest, riches and unique local form known as `jadarit` - a compound of sodium lithium boron silicate hydroxide, Serbia literally sits on billions of dollars. Great public debate occurs on a ways to exploit this countries advantage.

"Serbia is (not) for Sale": On Lithium, Hunger and Other Betrayals
source > lefteast.org/serbia-is-not-for-sale-on-lithium-hunger-and-other-betrayals/

As worlds biggest multinational companies struggle to invest in Serbia`s lithium, stance of Serbian government insist on not selling lithium just as ore. Serbia seek to have complete circle of production, from ore to the most quality worlds lithium batteries and electric road and flying cars.

Hoće li Srbija iskoristiti svoju "naftu 21. veka"?

Rod Blagojevich will save the USA. He, with his most loyal wife on this Earth. Blessed woman.



America is literally in the hands of Serbians.

Rod Blagojevich could not save himself, how can he save America?

Serious respect to Rod for trying to sell Obama's Senate seat, however.

Illinois is an amazing state. Four of its governors have faced criminal charges. A father and son essentially turned Chicago into their private fief for the better part of the 20th century (The Daleys).

The fat trust fund kid that runs Illinois now (a descendant of the Hyatt founder), was caught in wiretaps set up for investigating Rod Blagojevich - discussing what non elected position he wanted to "play" with. This didn't stop him from getting elected as governor - which shows that if you have enough money - anything is possible in Illinois.

Illinois is the Ukraine/Poland of America.

Except that Ukrainians are allowed to have and fire their assault weapons as they see fit and we are not.
I like Ukraine better...

The reason Illinois is so corrupt - is because the highest concentration of Poles and Ukrainians in the country is in Illinois :)

The most corrupt state in America, has the highest percentage of immigrants from the most corrupt countries in Europe - quelle surprise!

Usually... I think of MidWesterners as straight edge/square people - trustworthy and reliable. Illinois complicates that picture of course, haha! Michigan too. Too close to New York I guess.

The virus of corruption travelled down the Erie Canal.

Spot on, Bobko. A Polak who would vote Republican would be divorced, disowned, and chased away, if not shot.
That is why we moved as far away from these idiots as possible ...

@Novichok

People bring their culture and their practices with them.

It's why New York is also such a hotbed of corruption and crime, in comparison to our very quiet neighbors in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Nothing against black, brown, yellow people - because there's still so few of them in government. But actually against the usual suspects from the Catholic world. Italians, Poles, Irish, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, etc.

Catholicism, just like Eastern Orthodoxy, seems to produce people with very flexible moral values.

EXIT PROGRAM 2024 - List of performances

After the crossbow attack on a policeman today in Belgrade, where a Muslim terrorist lost his life, the police continue to hunt the terrorist group.

Action on Video >

The wahhabi terrorist tried to attack the Israeli embassy in Belgrade.

The cop with the arrow still in his neck managed to take him down.

"Hey, Bob, are you inspired to write nonsense by following lying, Jon? Check the statistics, and you'll be surprised by the percentage of black people in our government. There are actually quite a few of them."

A big storm has been announced and is about to begin just now in my city of Novi Sad, northern Serbia

Thanks for the weather update! It must be a slow news day in Serbia...lol

HaHaHaHa!, yeah, I am more interested in the weather in the USA.

You had a huge heatwave last week, how is it going now?

Hey, Crow - got anything to say about why Serbia has supplied $800M worth of munitions to Ukraine?

Not a very Sarmatian, or brother-like action - don't you think?

Statement from Vucic:

"This is a part of our economic revival and important for us. Yes, we do export our ammunition," he said in an interview. "We cannot export to Ukraine or to Russia . . . but we have had many contracts with Americans, Spaniards, Czechs, others. What they do with that in the end is their job."

Source: armyrecognition.com/news/army-news/army-news-2024/business-more-useful-than-ideology-for-serbian-president-with-800-millions-euros-of-ammo-exported-in-ukraine

It seems that when money becomes involved, ideas of Sarmatian brotherhood become secondary.

And how can these Serbs be trusted? 😠

Alexander III once said, "Russia has only two allies - its army and its fleet."

Relying on others, has rarely ever worked for us.

It's just funny with the Serbs... all these proclamations of eternal love, while selling huge amounts of artillery shells to Ukraine.

Even North Koreans and Persians have been more loyal than these Orthodox and Slavic "Brothers" .

Well, I think you overdid it here. Most of them "float" on the seabed near Crimea.
You're wrong here too. Not only will they betray you at the first opportunity, but they also consider themselves to be something better.

I can see something like that, maybe...

The Americans coming to Pyongyang and Tehran, and saying "We will lift the sanctions against you, if you just stop helping Russia."

The Koreans and Persians would of course be extremely naive to believe anything the United States might promise.

Obama negotiated, together with the EU, the JCPOA (popularly known as the Iran Nuclear Deal). Iran was happy, that after more than 30 years of being isolated by America, it could finally reintegrate itself into world trade.

In less than two years, Trump comes into power and flushes the whole agreement (that took 13 years to negotiate) down the toilet.

The Europeans, in a pathetic attempt to display "strategic autonomy" - tried to calm Iran down with assurances that they would stick to their end of the deal regardless of America's unhinged behavior. In the event, Iran eventually had to explain to the Europeans, politely, that they can stick their "promises" in their ass.

North Korea has been bullied and extorted by the United States pretty much since the moment of its creation. I don't know how they could believe anything coming out of Washington.

America has spent the last 25 years aggressively flushing down the drain the reputation that it had built for itself during the previous 80 years.

I see Serbs don't want to discuss this unpleasant little piece of news.

@Bobko
Honestly, if Slovenia did it. I would raise my eyebrows as a Russian. But, it's Serbia. It cannot afford to sat no to a good economical deal with almost anybody.

Yugoslavia pre world war II hoped to have alliance and co-operate with the western allies. Had to grudgingly sign treaties with Germany and it blew up in 1940 delaying any planned actions against Soviet Union.

Then Tito after ww2 despite being communist tried to keep a neutral stance and did not join Warsaw pact.

How many Yugoslavs have attacked Russia? Has any ex-Yugoslav reason to attack or be anti-Russian?

They never attacked us.

We never attacked them.

Instead, we liberated them in earlier wars, and more recently stepped in to prevent a total erasure of Serbia during the Yugoslav Wars. We have been the most steadfast advocate of Serbia's interests when it comes to the question of Kosovo. We share a common faith, blood, and even alphabet)

So yes, it is a little confusing why Serbia decided to take such a huge steaming dump on our doorstep. Or rather it's not confusing at all...

Serbia worships Mammon, like all others, and not Svetovid.

This is insanity.

Hey, Bobko, I read your posts looking for something I could disagree with and didn't find anything...Damn...

I love America. It's a great country. Maybe the greatest country ever... but you gotta be clear eyed about what it's doing around the world and how other people interpret these moves.

Some of these moves, really are very hard to explain.

The very fact that Russia needs help from heavily sanctioned Iran, not to mention North Korea, is so depressingly sad I can't even tell you. To see your eternal enemy, your feared nemesis, the great Russian bear, fall so low... it's painful. Even if I weren't an incorrigible Russophile, it would still bother me to se such fall. It's like a slap in our faces and a laugh - "look, this is what you - fearless Poles ha ha - were so unnerved about xD". :( You should have done much better in this war, Bobi. You're making us look like idiots. :(


I doubt it. $800 million is peanuts money even for a small European country. It wasn't about money. Serbian elites are choosing the orientation of their foreign policies. Why do they do it quietly? Probably not to shock their population with a sudden 180 degrees turn. The turn will be slow and gradual but inevitable.

Patience, my dear.

There will be a time, and no one will say such a thing to you.

Enough to say that DPRK has more artillery stocks than the entire EU, and Iran has better drone technology than nearly anybody else in Europe.

Russia gains strength daily.

I'll take your word for it. Don't disappoint me.

I very much doubt that.


That is also bollox, the Ukrainian drones are having more success than the Iranian ones in the Ukraine war.

Is it about the source or the operators?

@Torq

Why do you support Russia?
