Yugo-Nostalgia Prevails In Serbia, Bosnia

[Zephyrus]

They're forced to live in mini-Yugoslavia and they managed up till now in relative peace, however the hatreds are visible. I remember reading a thread about a Bosniak buying a company from a Serb and then bullying him out by imposing Islamic rules. Bosniak members here rejoiced.

Ivo Andrić hit the nail on the head.
Bosnia according to him:

Letter to a friend

Whoever lies awake at night in Sarajevo hears the voices of the Sarajevo night. The clock on the Catholic cathedral strikes the hour with weighty confidence: 2 AM. More than a minute passes (to be exact, seventy-five seconds - I counted) and only then with a rather weaker, but piercing sound does the Orthodox church announce the hour, and chime its own 2 AM. A moment after it the tower clock on the Beys' mosque strikes the hour in a hoarse, faraway voice, and that strikes 11, the ghostly Turkish hour, by the strange calculation of distant and alien parts of the world. The Jews have no clock to sound their hour, so God alone knows what time it is for them by the Sephardic reckoning or the Ashkenazy. Thus at night, while everyone is sleeping, division keeps vigil in the counting of the late, small hours, and separates these sleeping people who, awake, rejoice and mourn, feast and fast by four different and antagonistic calendars, and send all their prayers and wishes to one heaven in four different ecclesiastical languages. And this difference, sometimes visible and open, sometimes invisible and hidden, is always similar to hatred, and often completely identical with it.

"Cockta," the Yugoslav version of Coca-Cola,...

Never put the divine "Cockta" and that "Cola" shit in the same sentence!

Not surprised with Albanians response, yugoslavia was always seen as proxy state for greater Serbia by serbs, that artificial creation was a giant fyrom which made its living off Albanians, I would even go as far as to define as worst thing to ever happen to Albanians.

In Serbia and in Republika Srpska? How surprising. Not!

Anyway, everyone has some healthy dose of memories of good times of one's past.

I once had an Albanian coworker who told me "I'm from former Yugoslavia, Kosova." Probably because he's not a fanatical nationalist he added that detail. He embraces his past before the war as he's old enough to remember it. But of course he didn't want a return of Yugoslavia.

What is fanatical nationalist Albo according to you exactly? is it to ask the right for self-determination we have been seeking from day one in territories we always had the majority or what?

Serbs in Yugoslavia were doing the same thing as muslims in B&H today. Bully other ethnic groups and force their own will upon others. We all know how that ended up.

A fanatical nationalist Albo is one who behaves like an asshole because of his ideology. If you read me better you'll notice I didn't say Albos should want to be Yugoslavian.

I don't know about Bosniak-croat relation in BiH but what I know is Serbs are bullying & blackmailing Bosniaks with rep. srpska....That entity was a mistake.

What ideology we're talking exactly?
