@fram4153 All what naive protestors found are ancient books kept safe in Parliament's library and they stole them, alone with old pictures and other things which were guarded in parliament, that's how "democracy" started in Serbia. And it not a suprise, it was American set up by Otpor.

@3SRBIJACCCC When they ousted Milosevic the protesters took over the building and discovered an entire floor of falsified ballots that Milosevic and his secretaries were forging.

And the new administration did NOT take power through violence. They took to the streets and held protests. It was Milosevic and his goons that used violence against protesters.

@ribizlla Now i understand why Milosevic didn't want to give power to these puppets, it was for the sake of Serbian people.

These Otpor idiots were payed by US congress. Why? They were organising naive people and now they installed puppet regime.

Milosevic didn't lose elections in 2000. Milosevic had 48% and puppets had 52% but only 50% of votes were examened, they didn't want to wait the exam of other 50% of votes, because Milosevic could win, and they by violence took power in 5th october.

@swift4grizz In cases where movement has clear vision of tommorow - there is democratic transition. If you analyse 323 movements from 1900 to today it was 43 percent of nonviolent revolutions ending in democracies, unlike 4% of violent uprisings. Clear enough!

@3SRBIJACCCC

But he Milosevic has also LOST local alections in 1996, and has tried to manipulate at court. Reckognized the results after 3 months of demontsrations. He has LOST the presidential elections in 2000. And tried to manipulate. OF COURSE people went on streets and general strike and sent him to prison!

You guys mentioning stupid conspiracy theories and CIA are soo mising the point. Or am i Worng claiming that Mubaraak was supported by US for decades..?

[nickwestonfire]

@Ebareebaveebeedee You need proof to make such a claim as this else you just look like a biased party guilty of slander. Also America desperately needs dictators to enforce americas neoliberal colonialism. ie. The CIA would be against organisations such as this.

[3SRBIJACCCC]

These are CIA men. They had installed puppet regime in Serbia which humiliates Serbian people.

It is proven that "Otpor" "resistance" got money from US government.

Slobodan Milosevic wasn't a dictator, he won all elections during his rule.

@Ebareebaveebeedee why would I "trust you" ? I have clue who the hell you are. proof or stfu

@Ebareebaveebeedee

I keep reading this about the CIA. And I think if it is the CIA doing anything it is interjecting this message anywhere there are people whose desire to overthrow dictatorships, tyrannical rulers, monsters whose diet is hate and greed and have not one care of the people they rule and supplant.

May Peace find Us All.
