Serbia Conquered? Hardly.

It is obvious by now that this January’s presidential elections in Serbia were called with the specific purpose of entrenching Boris Tadic and his Democratic Party in power before the planned declaration of dependence by the terrorist KLA regime in the occupied province of Kosovo. The same “diplomats” and “reliable sources” that whispered to reporters about the inevitability of Kosovo’s secession said in the same breath that the Empire hoped for Tadic’s http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3737, as it would make things easier.
The Serb response to the forced separation of Kosovo – outpouring of anger, rage and defiance, from Belgrade to capitals around the world – temporarily shocked the Empire’s supporters in Serbia. Tadic himself dared not show his face at the mass demonstration in Belgrade on February 21, traveling to Romania instead. Only after the suspiciously well-funded media conglomerates in Serbia – which, oh so incidentally, stand somewhere to the left of Stalin when it comes to annexing Serbia to the EUSSR – http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3538 over rioters that damaged the U.S. Embassy did the professional apologists for Empire in Serbia’s politics and public opinion catch their breath. No political party in Serbia opposes joining the EU on principle – which is unfortunate – but the Popular Bloc, led by Prime Minister Kostunica, is challenging the notion that Serbia should continue talking to Brussels as if nothing happened, even as the EU acts as the instrument of Kosovo’s separation, through the EULEX mission and the “International Steering Group.” In this, he has the support of the largest opposition party, the Radicals, who last week proposed a parliamentary resolution demanding that government officials obey the Constitution and defend the territorial integrity of Serbia (i.e. Kosovo). The resolution could have passed a parliamentary vote, but the chairman – a Democrat – passed it along to the government, where the majority of ministers were loyal to Tadic. Facing a de facto mutiny, Prime Minister Kostunica disbanded the government and asked for a new election. Tadic agreed.
The Democrats – and their satellites, G17 and the LDP – believe that the May 11 vote will be a decisive battle for the future of Serbia, in which their policy of “pragmatic pragmatism” and unconditional surrender will triumph over the “backward nationalism, isolationism and violence” of those who still believe in the “antiquated” notions of sovereignty, dignity, honor, patriotism, etc.
More importantly, the Empire believes the same thing. The New York Times has openly endorsed Tadic, while the foreign ministers of France and Sweden have sunk to abusing the ghost of Zoran Djindic in order to make facetious promises of “European future” to Serbia.
