The Postman of Tuzla - Bosnia

April 1994
During the war in Bosnia, letters were a rare treasure, passed entirely on trust to strangers.

Teacher Sadil Mehmedmovic provided Tuzla's only postal service. We follow Sadil on his round, visiting shell-shocked towns and villages. There wasn't a proper postal service for over two years, but the underground service was astonishingly reliable. For Nazlija Delic the postal service was a godsend as she awaited news of her sons: one was fighting on the front, another was wounded, and a third was a prisoner of war.

I hope the Yugoslav people will never fight each other again, and concentrate on their similarities rather than their relatively small differences.

Fuck this shit. Who won the war? Croatia got it's independence. Bosnia left Serbia, Kosovo left Serbia and now they are independent. Look at Serbia now,it's like a piss drop in the middle of europe hahaha.

Srebrenik is my town and profesor Sadil is my friend. I was in Srebrenik in 1994 also. Serbian fascists are guilty for all that shit in Bosnia.

@pelemish123 vama je geslo SRBIJA DO TOKIJA a vidim polako nestaje Velika srbija, (BiH, Hrvatska, Crna Gora, Kosovo). jesi se zapitao zasto nestaje velika srbija. A brzo ce i Vojvodina i Sandzak da budu neovisni, pa ce tek onda ostati samo Beograd i Nis kao sto sam dole napisao. A RS je dio BiH, nema sanse da se pripoji srbiji niti odcijepi od BiH. Zato uzivaj jos kratko o svojoj domovini.
