Or would Serbian Children’s Crusade perhaps be a better description? Since the driving force behind the protests and the bulk of the protesters are university and high school students in their teens and early twenties, supported in many places by equally rebellious elementary school pupils, such a historically connotative description would not seem unwarranted. For the last eight months, formerly submissive Serbia has been putting up stiff resistance to the perceived malfeasance of the ruling regime and its insatiably greedy minions. It all began on 1 November of last year when a concrete canopy at the newly “renovated” railway station…

The month of July is noted for two sad anniversaries, the murder after a show trial of Serbian General Draža Mihailović by the Communist regime of Josip Broz Tito in 1946, and the execution of Czar Nicholas II and his family by the Bolsheviks in 1918. We share with our readers these moving words of tribute to General Mihailović by Serbian Jovan Dučić. Memory eternal to the victims of Communist terror! We find that in recent months American Serbs have been baptizing their male children with the name of Draža, after the glorious name of the illustrious Colonel Draža…
The Orthodox world was dismayed recently by persistent reports that the ancient St. Catherine’s monastery, located on the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, was threatened with the arbitrary revocation of its autonomous status. To widespread alarm, it was alleged that this venerable institution was to be turned by the Egyptian government into a museum and that the religious community who reside there might be evicted. The thought that in our age of presumed inter-faith conviviality a government could perpetrate such an outrage by decree sent shockwaves not just among Orthodox believers but also men of good will of all creeds who…
These words of tribute to General Draža Mihailović, the anniversary of whose cowardly murder by the Yugoslav Communist regime of Josip Bro Tito is approaching later this month, were penned by the great Serbian poet, Jovan Ducić in 1942. Memory eternal to the Serbian hero Draža Mihailović! We find that in recent months American Serbs have been baptizing their male children with the name of Draža, after the glorious name of the illustrious Colonel Draža Mihailović who, together with Dragiša Vasić, towers at the head of the new Army which has emerged under the Serbian Flag in the mountains of…
It remains to be seen whether Serbia will keep its word and no longer indirectly arm Ukraine Serbia surprised some observers after its President and Prime Minister assured Russia that it’ll no longer indirectly arm Ukraine, which came after Russia’s Foreign Spy Service (SVR) said that Serbia hasn’t discontinued this trade that it first raised awareness about in late May. Serbia’s latest smooth-talking towards Russia is politically self-serving, however, since it preceded last weekend’s attempt to revive the protest movement which Moscow consistently assessed to be a Western-backed Color Revolution. It was explained last summer that “The Serbian Government Is Inadvertently Responsible For The Latest Color Revolution Intrigue”, yet…
In April 1951 the European Coal and Steel Community was launched as a deceptively benign and unassuming precursor to the nightmare known today as the “European Union.” The Coal and Steel Community was presented to European nations (France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg) exhausted by the recently ended war as a significant step toward reconciliation, cooperation, and the enduring peace that they longed for. The project, which ultimately morphed into the framework for a European superstrate which bears no resemblance the embryo that had been launched under false pretenses, received its initial impetus from a plan laid out…
One of the more fascinating puzzles is from whom the Serbian government are receiving their crackpot foreign policy advice. From crackpots, one supposes. To the bewilderment even of those who had little faith in the capacity of Serbian decision-makers to act in their own rational self-interest (forget the country, to which they are as emotionally attached as the Zelensky gang is to Ukraine) Serbia was present at the “Ukraine – Southeast Europe” summit held in Odessa on 11 June. The event was orchestrated by the Ukraine neo-Nazi regime’s collective West sponsors to rally support for their Kiev proxies and attendance…
Serbia’s relations with Russia took a dramatic downturn several days ago when the Russian Foreign Ministry issued a sharply worded rebuke to the Serbian regime for selling arms, ammunition, and other military equipment to Ukraine in the midst of the ongoing conflict with Russia. The rebuke comes following the Serbian President’s sojourn in Moscow for the 9 May Victory Day festivities when, it is suspected, he was read the riot act concerning that very matter. It also marks a notable reversal of Russia’s previous positions that had been interpreted as supportive of the Serbian regime in the face of the…
Last week at an event at the European Parliament, an MEP asked me a question that I hear often: “Does JD Vance hate Europe?” My guess is that he does not hate the Europe of tête de veau in a Rive Gauche brasserie in Paris, of Sunday mass at the Duomo in Milan, of Alpine lakes in Switzerland, or of paintings at the Alte Pinothek in Munich. What he hates is Brussels, or rather, “Brussels”—the symbol of official, bureaucratic Europe, and the dictatorship of managerial liberalism administered from there. He hates the Europe of decrees from the European Commission, of the Digital…
Whatever ends up happening, and hopefully nothing too dramatic will unfold, it’s long overdue for Russia to finally call Vucic out. Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) accused Serbia of shooting Russia in the back by arming Ukraine. Such reports first circulated in connection with spring 2023’s Pentagon leaks, but they were denied by President Aleksandar Vucic, who just defied EU pressure by visiting Moscow during Victory Day. He reacted to the latest news by declaring that he’ll block the supply of Serbian arms and ammo to countries that are suspected of sending them to Ukraine, but that contradicts what he said in June 2023. Back then, he said that “Is it…
