In recent days I have found two amazing testimonies (creepy) of the former Yugoslavia and the long shadow cast on its existence this.

On the one hand, I leave the magnificent work of photographer Milomir Kovacevic “Tito was” (“Titus in the war”), made during the siege of Sarajevo. In this series, reflects the ubiquitous portraits of Marshal Tito abandoned the stage of the war that dismembered the country that was her baby, swept away many of its inhabitants.

From the summer of 1992, (20 years before the time of writing this post) Serb forces were beginning to put in positions that would enable the 1335 days of the siege of Sarajevo (1992-1996).

From within the city, from the district of Marindvor, where the writer speaks Bosnian Dzevad Violence in”Diary of an exodus”. Karahasan watching the siege from an almost scientific philosophy, take it like a lab rat they were, dissects and explains it from a place where pain challenges. The drama of Sarajevo belongs to that city, on the contrary. Sarajevo suffer destruction, but who will suffer the loss the world.

A few days ago published an entry reflecting on the appropriateness of talking about the Bosnian Serbs and Bosnian Croats, instead of talking about, simply, Bosnians / as and treat everyone equally.

The issue is far more complex than we summarize here, however I find it interesting to leave you with the testimony of Jovan Divjak, known to be a Serb general (Born in Belgrade), Bosnia-Herzegovina resident who led the defense of the city before the siege of the troops from their country of birth.
