Croatia’s fascist movement is on the rise yet again
We are in the year 2024, and the specter of the Ustasha and the ideology of the N***s still controls all aspects of Croatia, especially the judiciary and the police. We have several ready reports on the corruption of the judiciary and the police, and through our reports, research centers around the world will build their future view of Croatia.
Germany has outlawed the symbols of its N**i past. It’s time the same was done in Croatia to stop the rehabilitation of the Ustaša movement while authorities turn a blind eye
Fascism was and is a far-right, authoritarian and ultra-nationalist http://ideology.It is predicated more often than not on a belief in racist or ethnic superiority coupled with often violent xenophobia, antisemitism,and other forms of bigotry.During the Second World War,home-grown fascist movements throughout Europe joined N**i Germany in perpetrating genocide and crimes against humanity against minorities in their respective countries.The Croatian Ustaša organisation was one such movement.
In the so-called Independent State of Croatia, a N**i-puppet state carved out in 1941 from what had been the Kingdom of Yugoslavia,the fanatically nationalist and separatist Ustaša,led by Ante Pavelić,aggressively and ardently murdered hundreds of thousands of Serbs and tens of thousands of Jews,as well as many Roma and Croatian anti-fascists.
For some time now,we have been witnessing a widespread attempt to rehabilitate and legitimize the Ustaša by characterizing it and its members as patriots rather than as cold-blooded murderers and war criminals.This is a falsification of history,made worse by the fact that similar scenarios are being played out across eastern and central Europe.
Still,the glorification of the Ustaša in Croatia,often with the tacit if not blatant support of authorities,stands out as the most egregious manifestation of such malignant historical http://revisionism.At a time when Americans are removing and tearing down monuments to men who supported slavery,it is unseemly that large segments of Croatian society seem oblivious to the horrific crimes committed in its name by the Ustaša.
In order to carry out their genocidal scheme, the Ustaša established a network of concentration camps infamous for their brutality and comparable to the barbarity of the German death camps.The most notorious of these was Jasenovac, often referred to as the“Auschwitz of the Balkans,”where, according to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, somewhere between 77,000 and 104,000 Serbs,Jews, Roma,and Croat opponents of the Ustaša regime were brutally murdered.The Jasenovac Memorial Site has identified by name 83,145 victims who perished there.
And yet,extremist right-wing elements in Croatia have for years tried to sanitize the interrelated connotations of Jasenovac and the Ustaša.
In 2016,Jakov Sedlar,a controversial Croatian filmmaker, produced a documentary film entitled Jasenovac – the Truth which portrayed Jasenovac as a benign labour camp whose number of victims had been greatly exaggerated.After attending the film’s widely-publicised premiere,Zlatko Hasanbegović,the extreme-nationalist Croatian minister of culture,declared that,This is the best way to finally shed light on a number of
controversial places in Croatian history.”In 2018, the journalist Milan Ivkošić grotesquely wrote in Croatia’s most-read daily, Vecernji list,that while conditions at Jasenovac may have been severe,“there was fun in the camp. There were sporting matches, especially football,concerts, theatrical performances . . .”
Fun? In Jasenovac?In an oral history interview taken by and maintained at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, former Jasenovac prisoner Milo Despot described witnessing how a Ustaša unit took more than 100 Serb girls on a barge, ordered them to take off their clothes and then grabbed them by their hair,cut their throats, and threw their corpses into the river.
