Oggetto: [ita-jug] An Edifice of Lies -- Malic


Very shortly, just to tell you that I completely disagree with the sort
of comparison you still try to make between what you call "the Empire"
(i.e. imperialism) and Communism (N. Malic: "An Edifice of Lies", at
http://www.antiwar.com/malic/m110603.html).

Against all evidence, and in spite of all sense of ridicolous, you
continue criticizing Tito for a crisis and a war which exploded well
after his death.
Under Tito, Yugoslavia was a modern and prosperous country in which all
"peoples" and cultures lived together in peace. Moreover, Tito was the
leader of a victorious struggle for national liberation of all
Yugoslavs, first of all the Serbs, the ones who actually and rightfully
took most advantage from that by liberating themselves - as Tito's
partisans - from nazifascism, ustashe, Balli Kombetar... and from
western imperialism itself, for decades!!!

The resourgence of all those historical enemies (nazifascism, ustashe,
Balli Kombetar, western imperialism) has nothing to do with Tito, but
rather with Tito's death and with the treason by many, including some
serb quislings.

Your considering Tito as "anti-Serb" or even anti-Yugoslav is such a
blatant paradox that not seeing it only means to have been completely
blended by a very rough, indeed fully american anticommunism.
