www.javno.com/en/croatia/clanak.php?id=216269ZAGREB, CROATIA – The Association of Croatia`s Anti-Fascists has held a forum to the topic “Anti-fascist Croatia 1941-1945 in primary and secondary school textbooks”, motivated by wrong, partial and false information in textbooks and recent events in Croatia, like protest for the change of the name Marshall Tito`s Square and wearing Ustasha symbols at concerts. Croatian President Stjepan Mesic attended the forum, a member of the Association, who stated his views on the issue, connecting incomplete interpretations of the historic roles of anti-fascist steps, Ustasha, homeland defenders and Chetniks in textbooks with today`s notion of history. - Nostalgic Ustasha only poison the youth, thus leading them astray. The history of the People`s Liberation War (NOB) was falsificied during the first years of independent Croatia, during the Homeland War. First liberators were declared criminals, and real criminals were declared heroes and real patriots – President Mesic said, adding that children need the complete, real truth and actual information on what happened. Mesic pointed out that the truth needed to be told and the reasons of horrific crimes which took place in Bleiburg and Jasenovac. - The youth needs all relevant information, because this is how we will prevent them showing up at concerts with Ustasha insignia – Mesic said. In the end, he warned that united Europe was Croatia’s only chance, which it cannot run by poisoning the youth with twisted notions of the past, because they will not get by in modern society which has parted ways with the past.

Mesic is full of shit. He is quoted saying to a Australian Croat audience in 1990 that they have nothing to explain for Jasenovac and that Croatia was victorious twice in WW2, when NDH got axis recognition in 1941 and when they got allied recognition in 1945 ive seen the video of it ill post it when i get it uploaded.

Mesic is an opportunist. 1. In 1990 he was saying how he loves the NDH, 15 years later he is saying the opposite. 2. Before 1990 he was a rising communist, 15 years later he claims he was never a marxist. 3. 1991 he told the Croatian parliament "My job is done, Yugoslavia is no more." Some 12 years later he claimed to the Hague that he wanted to preserve Yugoslavia.
