XPost: nyc.transit, nyc.annouce, ny.politics From: milosberkic@yahoo.com It took a quarter century to repair the damage! Croatian Nazis killed one million Serbs! Do we bomb Croatia? No, we bomb Serbia! Why? Our politicians live inside the nazi pope's molesting intestine. While Croatian Nazi men where bombing, the women formed the Nazi Mata Hari League! First we had Mira Bereta the foreign policy advisor to Senate leader Dole who was the grandaughter of Nazi Ustasha war criminal convicted in absentia. But Father of Bereta lived in Los Angeles, neighbor of father of Donna Kovanic, the Nazi Croatian wife of Rudy Giuliani. And Xenia Mucha was chief of staff for both Damoto and Pataki in New York. So the Coratian Nazi Whores took over the whole USA foreign policy! Explain why Croatian Terrorist Clinton Bimbo Jamie Gorelic is on the 9/11 Commission when her terrorist affiliations helped make it happen. So while Clinton was bombing the Serbs so Albanian and Boznian Jihadists could plan 9/11 Giuliani gave the Albanians a permit to picket the Serb Cathedral at midnight Easter service! Who represents the Albanians in America? Former COngressman Joe dioGuardi, who is known to extort campaign contributions in church basements. They pay him $400,000 a year. Where does a poor country like Albania get such money. Simple. Heroin. WHo represnets Croatia and Boznia? PR firms paid for by gold from teeth and jewelry of the million Serbs they killed in World War Two. Where was that gold hidden until 1990? The Vatican Vaults. The New York Times, December 08, 2002 Croatia Seeks Return of La Guardia Hijacker By JOSEPH P. FRIED Twenty-six years ago, it was Croatian plane hijackers who spilled blood in New York. Unlike the Middle Easterners bent on mass murder when they crashed jetliners into the World Trade Center last year, the five Croatian nationalists who hijacked a Chicago-bound airliner after it left La Guardia Airport in September 1976 insisted that killing had not been their aim. They only wanted, they said, to publicize demands for the independence of Croatia, then part of Yugoslavia. Indeed, the "bombs" they carried on their hijacking to Paris, where they surrendered, turned out to be fakes. But a real bomb that they had left in a public locker in the Grand Central subway station, to convince the authorities that they had real explosives on the plane, went off as the police tried to defuse it, killing one officer, partly blinding another and injuring two more. The hijackers€ leader, Zvonko Busic, and his American-born wife, Julienne, were sentenced to life in prison for air piracy resulting in a death. The three others, convicted of piracy but not of the death of the officer, Brian J. Murray, got 30 years. Mr. Busic admitted that in 1975 he had arrived at La Guardia by plane an hour before a bomb there killed 11 people, but he denied involvement in that crime. Nobody claimed responsibility, and the case remains unsolved. Today, Mr. Busic, 56, is in the federal prison in Leavenworth, Kan. His wife and the three others were paroled in the late 80€s, after serving about a dozen years. In Croatia, which declared independence in 1991 and where Julienne Busic now lives, Mr. Busic€s sympathizers have been calling for his release, or at least his transfer to a Croatian prison. The Croatian government has tried to arrange such a transfer as a "humanitarian issue," its ambassador in Washington, Ivan Grdesic, said last week. His government has guaranteed that "it would not release him upon his arrival in Croatia," he said, but he doubts that the American government will agree to a transfer. Which is just fine with Terence McTigue, the officer blinded in one eye by the hijackers€ bomb. Mr. McTigue, who later headed the police bomb squad before retiring in 1986, said that even if Mr. Busic was not released in Croatia, he "would be put in a country club" there. Ron Brown credited for introducing US business to Croatia Commerce Secretary Ron Brown?s ill- fated trade mission to Dubrovnik in April 1996 came at a time when Croatia was just emerging from a long war. The nation was still four years away from possessing a government that was firmly committed to a platform of economic reform. "Ron Brown?s trip brought a host of projects to Croatia," said Beryl Blecher, Commercial Attach€ to the United States Embassy in Zagreb. Even today, "We need to have Croatia actively promoted to US companies otherwise, unless it is right in front of them, these companies just won?t see the country." Given the government of Croatia?s progress in streamlining the nation?s legal and regulatory environment, many more American and other Western investors should be taking a serious look at the nation. In the twenty-two months that the current government has been in office the level of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Croatia has increased. Much of the FDI that has taken place came about through opportunities that arose through the government?s privatization effort. "For a transition country privatization is an essential process for enabling a country to restructure its economy towards a market economy," said Hrvoje Vojovic, President of the Croatian Privatization Fund. As the privatization process moves forward more and more opportunities for FDI will occur. "We are focusing on companies involved in agriculture, the tourism sector, more than forty hotels, the electronics industry, shipping, and shipbuilding," says Vojovic. An official OPIC investment bulletin states, "Croatia?s investment climate is brightening and this should continue if Croatia maintains its commitment to market transition and reform and builds on the progress to date." The Western Wireless company has taken a stake in Croatia?s telecommunications services. Parsons Power of Reading, Pennsylvania has been rehabilitating a geothermal power plant in central Croatia. Bechtel signed a contract in 1998 to construct a major highway connecting Zagreb with Split. Out of this highway project sprang $100 million in business for the Caterpillar company- purportedly the largest Caterpillar fleet assembled in one place apart from an open pit mine. Hilton is currently renovating a hotel in Dubrovnik. Coca-Cola has had a major presence in Croatia for many years. This core group of companies, who had the prescience to take advantage of Croatia?s strong potential, formed an American Chamber of Commerce office in Zagreb. Yet, according to Charles Ludolph, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Commerce, "There is much more that US companies could do in Croatia. US companies could bring services and management expertise to the vibrant Croatian tourism sector and more US companies could become involved in the privatization process that Croatia has undertaken." In order for this to happen, however, the word must get out that Croatia is a stable, progressive, Westward facing country full of possibilities. The AmCham office in Zagreb, in conjunction with its members, can help to promote [continued in next message] --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
