State terrorism and the people who chose freedom!
Dear citizens of Serbia, what happened, happened like this.
Shortly before the start of the student and public gatherings for Vidovdan[1], a group of seven individuals, whose backgrounds were well-known to security agencies across multiple states, were scheduled to enter from Bosnia as part of the regime’s plan. Thanks to the intervention of certain gentlemen, whose requests are not to be easily refused, these Bosnian “tourists“ with the appropriate interagency escort were redirected to a location in Pljevlja, where they were engaged in a courteous, understanding, and attentive conversation. The unexpected guests willingly shared their insights with their well-intentioned hosts. Spontaneously. After all, this location had previously hosted similar thematic discussions where people could open their souls in peace and tranquility. It turned out that these would-be assassins had been tasked with infiltrating the crowds at the student protests and, at a predetermined moment, with cold weapons to stab an unspecified number of individuals, including several police officers, some of whom were predetermined by name as designated victims. The idea was to incite fear, mass unrest, and chaos, thereby giving security forces a pretext to „respond.“ Part of this plan involved immediate police intervention under the justification of injuries and possible fatalities, followed by mass arrests and detention of all individuals branded as „terrorists“ by the whims of a madman and his lackeys. Under this plan, professors who spoke at the Vidovdan student protests, along with anyone previously labeled by him, the self-proclaimed, the authorities, the party and certain security officials as instigators, inspirers and active participants in the protests, were to be arrested on the same charges now being used against students across Serbia.
Fear, terror and brute force on a massive scale threatened to engulf Serbia.
States are rarely inclined to show gratitude to soldiers of wars they did not initiate, yet many pivotal battles have been won precisely this way. Thus, there are no medals here, no glory, no privileges. None of that. So, to the gentlemen who have, through this act, done Serbia a great service, we will speak of them another time. For now, lads, from me – thank you!
On the detention list were also a number of “discreet” individuals, some socially and economically quite well-positioned, who failed to grasp either the nature of him, the self-proclaimed one, nor the direction he took after believing the engineer had left. He is, after all, a paper-thin figure who thinks the departure of an engineer is even possible in such affairs, a special kind of idiocy. But you should have understood that the consequences of letting fools operate in the dark are potentially catastrophic, even for you personally. You should have realised that in the dark, anything is possible and you know which darkness I refer to. It is therefore also possible that the one you trusted and supported never even saw the light and that everything he did has merely always been a blind stumble through shadows. He does not comprehend light, so how could he comprehend „fraternal“ relations, unless they were transactional or sycophantic? And when fraternity vanishes, everything can revert to the days of King Milan Obrenović, who, in his blindness, ordered the slaughter of dozens of his own brothers. In truth, he killed all who inconvenienced him, all whom he believed he could. I won’t drag you through the theological roots of your so-called fraternal „love“ and Cain and Abel, but it is striking how few of you grasped even this. Dismally few knew how to present themselves properly. But that is your deficit, not mine.
In any case, after the pedagogy of Pljevlja comes the penology. So, self-proclaimed, I have thought it over and now I rather like the idea proposed by one gentleman that those with pedagogical inclinations might ensure a certain quarterly delivery does not reach its destination. You know what I mean and what gets delivered to you quarterly.
And of course, the connection towards the south will understand, they were, after all, built on discipline and will respect the wishes of the gentlemen from the salty waters. But your lot, those who are bears before noon and still believe by afternoon that you will assign them their route, who are even willing to butcher and stab Serbian citizens at peaceful protests in the name of your depraved love, they won’t grasp it so easily. They see the absence of a tour as a loss of power, and by nature, they despise the powerless, especially when they have to “split” with them. Understanding the things was not going too well for them in life to begin with, yet they truly believed you had that “power”, which is why they pay people around them to praise you as the “Great Serb”. Some have already wasted millions and billions in advance, and now what? I know of some locals, who won’t grasp the causal link between your orchestrated attack on Serbia’s students and the sudden cancellation of a quarterly delivery. They’ll wonder, Where do we fit into this? Those with naval ranks or higher duties in that sphere could explain in detail why such a thing must not happen. It’s too dangerous, for them. The realisation that the state is as dysfunctional as it is now is perilous; all sorts of things from the past could resurface. In such circumstances, some disappear by the natural order of things, while new figures emerge.
I told you, do not use force against the students and the people.
I also told you that after certain atrocities you will not be able to wash your hands off, as water does not cleanse blood.
I told you also that at some point the students would unite behind a demand, one that is justified, clear and binding for all.
The success of the protest rests primarily on the fact that the protests are indisputable and fully justified, the citizens of Serbia have the right to a constitutionally regulated state and the rule of law, while the current regime is doing everything it can to make the Constitution and law nonexistent. Second, the tragic reason, the mass killing of citizens in Novi Sad, still has not seen a judicial conclusion, and there were all the reasons for the state to react decisively and quickly. In fact, the absence of an adequate state response after so much time suggests that evidence is being concealed, the proceedings are being „fixed,“ and the entire case is being covered up. Third, the protests are nonviolent!
Everything the students needed to achieve in an organisational sense was to ensure that the protests remained nonviolent and nonpartisan. The nonpartisan aspect was crucial for the largest voting body in Serbia, the politically abstinent, meaning people who have, in one way or another, some intuitively, others consciously, realised that all parties in Serbia are the same, that all party leaders are the same, and that they are all part of the same evil, monstrous, and destructive establishment that has been crushing this nation for a very long time. This succeeded completely, with an incredible public response, and even many members of certain parties and political organisations, visibly disappointed in their former party leaders and structures, joined the protests.
As for nonviolence, it is primarily rooted in the Christian archetype of our people and then in the awareness that long-term goals, where the content aligns with the original idea, are achieved primarily through nonviolent methods and means.
The protests were clearly led to be nonviolent, but it is another matter that one mentally disturbed self-proclaimed individual sees the call for TRUTH and the rule of law as violence. He sees the call for citizens to uphold the Constitution and the right to life as violence, as a personal attack on him, because in the deranged world he has created, nothing but himself is worth existing, neither the people nor the state of Serbia.
The justified reasons and motives, as well as the nonviolence of the protests, were correctly recognised by the citizens, which is why citizens stood massively behind the youth of Serbia, taking to the streets with their children, mothers with their babies and the elderly with grandchildren. In this way, all that nonviolent world showed what the protests are truly defending. If there is any measure of nonviolence, it is this kind of gathering of citizens. If there is any measure of trust, it is this kind of trust in the protest organisers. That is why the regime, as its primary objective, tasked itself with undermining these foundations of the students’ protest success at any cost. That is how „ćaciland“[2] came to be. With such clear and justified mass protests, the regime had to create a „second pole“ at any cost, because otherwise an attack by the regime on unarmed people would be a mirror of exposed tyranny.
Ćaciland is farsical, a diabolical setup in Belgrade’s center, masquerading as a “second pole.“ This allowed the tyrant to posture as a „defender“ rather than an aggressor, thereby having the “obligation” to defend something. By “defending” such a constructed “side” the regime is preserving the last shred of his faux „legitimacy.“
The nonviolence of the protests has rendered this strategy meaningless. If you understand this, then you can understand why such a nonsensical creation as „ćaciland“ still exists alongside the massive student protests and why the regime needed an image of „ćacilands“ spreading throughout Serbia. Only in this way could a false image of nationwide resistance to the student protests be created, resistance that, in reality, never happened. The people of Serbia are wholeheartedly with the students!
And of all the methods against the ćaciland phenomenon, the students chose the best one—ignoring it. Ćaciland does not exist! Just as the so-called „president of ćaciland,“ a self-proclaimed mentally disturbed dictator with cardboard habits, does not exist. A grotesque figure whose „supreme command“ still means something only in that „state“ under tents between two parliaments and only for as long as he is willing to pay in cash. Self-proclaimed, illegitimate, he simply no longer exists. However, the well-practiced method of creating two violent groups that clash over something has failed this time. Anyone who calls for violence either does not understand the significance of nonviolent overthrow (because only such an overthrow is possible now) or is directly engaged in undermining the protests. The political establishment failed to generate two conflicting groups, and with that, the possibility of controlling the process immediately collapsed. All that remained was primitive media manipulation, mere observation, and surveillance of the immediate protest participants, something in which certain parts of the security agencies and services particularly excelled. When this did not yield the expected results, the regime resorted to the use of naked force. To obtain „justification“ for indiscriminate violence, primarily in the eyes of the international community, they then labeled the students and professors of Serbia as terrorists. In an orchestrated manner, all the lackeys of the rotten, mentally disturbed System did this, each in their own domain and capacity. I am glad that the students recognised every single one of them so easily.
And once again, political Belgrade has „succeeded“ in pushing the boundaries of its mindless betrayal, this Vidovdan, far more Serbs were arrested in Belgrade than in Kosovo! Political Belgrade and political Priština, by the way, always act in sync, shielding each other’s backs and interests against their own peoples, but now this synchronicity is completely exposed and visible.
Now, it was time for killing. According to the madmen’s design, this was supposed to be a bloody Vidovdan.
In the architecture of organised violence planned for Vidovdan, the key determinants were time and place. Wanting to „comply“ with the ban on operating at the primary location where a large peaceful gathering took place, they had to find a way to „bring the crowd“ to ćaciland. And once again, the „state“ did everything to ensure the violence against its own citizens was as well-organized as possible. That’s why it was crucial for organised groups of provocateurs to lure the people to ćaciland, because they desperately needed a mass clash between „blockaders“ and the police. Within this strategy, the „blockaders“ were tele-guided into a „need“ to physically confront the „Ćasi´s“, after which the police would suddenly have a reason to “intervene” in something. The key point for the planned violence was once again the position in front of the Church of Saint Mark. This location was determined by Belgrade’s physical layout, as well as some historical and other very dark factors. For his Kristallnacht, the madman set the stage, arranged his units and unit commanders, or rather, janissaries, assigned suitable TV crews, while cameramen and journalists, positioned on the front lines atop police armoured vehicles, eagerly awaited the promised massacre. On the other side, among the young people, phalanxes with helmets and batons have been infiltrated. This was the grand finale of creating the two poles I wrote about today. Everything was ready, and they were just waiting for the order from the center to unleash the synchronised chaos. Hence, the day before, there was even a „because I’m smart”-prediction about the exact time the riots would start, because it’s easy to predict when you’re the one organising it. But it didn’t go as planned. The prediction failed and consequently will your quarterly report on white sports fail.
And remember, you self-proclaimed you, your Kristallnacht didn’t fail. It was taken from you!
Against this criminal plan, the response had to be organised—to break the synchronisation of the planned riots at the exact moment the peaceful student protests ended.
If you’re wondering, self-proclaimed one, where some people there came from, between the cordon and the brought-in and planted fans, here’s your answer. What you’re reading now is the reason why the brave Zvečanac, the one who is the future one, but now free and the written-off bearded Životni, physically separated all those gathered, uninformed, and the overpaid ones from the cordon. That’s how the necessary hour was “bought” and how the sequence of events was taken from you. And now everyone knows two things, even the instructed and paid foreign observers. First, your entire plan and program is hollow, meaning you’re unreliable, you don’t even have the apparatus to control the actions you yourself organise, which is to say you can’t even solve a problem you yourself create. And second—they are forced, though some unwillingly, to clearly state that the student protests have nothing to do with the unrest that followed, which then, consequently, puts the regime in a clear context, which is to say that it is the regime that organised the unrest, not the students. Hence, accordingly, every arrest of students that followed during the night and the next day is not some fight against terrorism but a naked act of violence by the state apparatus against the citizens of the Republic of Serbia. That is state terrorism of a totalitarian kind.
Because of this event, for reasons you don’t understand, the gathered people were grateful. The police unit that acted was grateful, even though their commander knew something would eventually be thrown at them. The students were grateful, their parents were grateful, even those brought in to cause chaos were grateful. Many state officials, who understood something from all this, were grateful. The streets were grateful—even that much more serious „street“ you fear so much. Even some discreet individuals were grateful, of course, those who are a little more present in their lives than others.
In short, everyone was grateful.
Because, believe it or not—they all want peace.
Each for their own reasons, but everyone wants peace.
In the state of Serbia, only one man and a very narrow circle of his lackeys want something different.
And you see how the students perfectly understood both the idea and the right moment for the internationalisation of the protest story, which overnight dismantled your thesis that this is a „color revolution.“Well, you’ve also realised what the echo of the two-faced May gatherings in Russia´s Ivanovo was and how, quite fittingly, by the logic of the Federation Council, Sergey Lavrov’s statement suddenly aligned with Richard Grenell’s statement back then, if you’ve since learned to read, you’ll see that both actually pointed to both „Constitution and Law.“ In diplomatic terms, this means the student protests are legitimate and the demand for extraordinary parliamentary elections is legitimate! What is being insisted upon is actually a peaceful transfer of power. So, the students’ strategy is excellent!
Perhaps you have missed it, but this time, not even most of the Russian media are calling it a „colour revolution“ anymore, but rather mass demonstrations and a people’s uprising. The achieved time discrepancy between the scheduled hour for planned riots and what actually happened, along with the part related to the strength of light within us, has taken away your planned and crucial temporal continuity. No continuity, no „color revolution,“ no news. And when there’s none of your news, there’s none of your power either.
There is no colour revolution in Serbia!
Unlike the students, the security system of the Republic of Serbia still shows an enviable ability to act outside the Constitution and laws, but this time everything has become very strained. The direct order to arrest a student on terrorism charges from the other day came from the head of the regional BIA center for intelligence and as they say in „interdepartmental terminology,“ the order was passed down to the Service for Combating Terrorism of the Serbian Interior Ministry, MUP. The elders and workers of this Service were very reluctant and almost on the verge of refusing the order but ultimately agreed to carry it out, though now the situation is on the brink of breaking. Part of the police and some inspectors simply no longer want to participate in any of this.
There’s no shortage of fools, but the number of those willing to arrest children just so one madman can stay in power has dramatically decreased. And to all you „I’m just doing my job“ types who still want to participate in all this, know this – the individuals who came from Bosnia to Serbia with orders and intent to stab and kill Serbian citizens with cold weapons are classic terrorists, fully aware and with clear intent to provoke large-scale unrest through their actions in the country, in order to justify the regime’s planned unprecedented repression against Serbian citizens and to create the conditions for possible civil war. To anyone reading this, it may sound however they think it should, but if something is terrorism, then it is terrorism. Complicity in this serious criminal act is punishable, if the accomplice is a state official, especially from the executive branch or the „apparatus“ of force, then it is a qualified form. The instigators, media manipulators, and all others involved are co-perpetrators.
And remember, the indictment will be written by the liberated people — this is more like a sketch, a draft, a conceptual solution.
To conclude this text, I must say this.
Cordons and praetorians were invented to shield tyrants from the people with their shields, but tyrants are not defeated by storming the cordons. Tyrants have always been toppled by those who know how to wield peace, not war. This is something to learn now from the students of Serbia, because in impossible conditions, they are expertly wielding PEACE and skilfully avoiding all the traps of professional warmongers and villains. War is always a defeat for the people because there are never winners in war. Serbian politicians have never been pained by the suffering of the Serbian people, on the contrary, they’ve always found a way to survive everything and then dutifully weep at the graves of those who perished because of their political platitudes, insane fabrications, and money stolen from the people. Do you recognise this horrific „recipe“ for governance among today’s „highest state leaders“? This time must be different because Serbia has nowhere left to go. This regime has already sold off everything it could get its hands on and now it would gladly expend even the last student of this country on some cordon. So, going onward, bravely but wisely!
I would love for my people to learn their lessons in an easier way, but it seems it must be like this again. It really isn’t up to me, but we must respect the one it is up to, because everything we have comes from Him, even the Truth, conscience, honour and dignity. This time, the lesson is clear – Serbia has never in its history had a more shameless and vile government! Never in such a short time have there been certain preconditions like this for the complete disappearance of the state and the people and never has the power been embodied in so many shameless abominations.
So, self-proclaimed one, if you even live to see that day in freedom, don’t forget when you are forced by law to announce the people’s decision for extraordinary parliamentary elections, wear a green shirt and definitely some brown pants. You have a pair in your closet, on a hanger in the middle. They’re not new, but they’ll do.
Because of everything I’ve written to you and everything I’ve yet to tell you, the student rebellion is not an option, it is salvation!
The students are right, the students’ demands have not been met!
[1] Vidovdan is a Serbian national and religious holiday celebrated on June 28 according to the Gregorian calendar, or June 15 according to the Julian calendar. The Serbian Orthodox Church observes it as a day of remembrance for Prince Lazar and the Serbian martyrs who fell in the Battle of Kosovo against the Ottoman Empire on June 15, 1389 (according to the Julian calendar). It is one of the most significant Serbian holidays. (source Wikipedia)
[2] Ćaciland in serbian “đaci” means “pupil”. During the early stages of the student protest some, supposedly by the student protests angered “pupils who want to go to school and study”, though assumed to be somebody of the self-proclaimed payed thugs, spelled the word wrong in his graffiti on a school wall and wrote “ćaci” instead, which became a major meme for the student protests itself. Once the self-proclaimed offered the park to his “students”, who in fact want to study and protest for their righty to study, the public of nonviolent protesters took this chance and called the park “ćacilend”, land of the ćasi´s.
