The 94 year old, Josip Boljkovac, was acquitted by the Zagreb County Court on Thursday 22 May of war crimes against civilians in the aftermath of WWII.

The 94-year old Boljkovac was accused that in the early May of 1945, as head of the Karlovac branch of the then Department of National Security (OZNA), which was the Tito-led Partisans’ security service, he had ordered the arrest and execution of 21 civilians from Duga Resa.

Judge Tomislav Jurisa handed down the Judgment, acquitting Boljkovac of the war crime while, in the same breath saying that “there is no doubt that the crime was committed but that there was no written order for the execution of the crime … not a single document leads to Boljkovac … it was simply a matter of crime committed by the system …which crimes have compromised the historically-affirmative antifascist battle…

she’s been so tired,
for everything,
for all the worries,
for all the pain,
she asked herself,
what is the reason I keep living?

until she feels a warm touch,
from outside,
a hand,
a warm hand,

then she realized,
the answer to her question,
she’s been living for that hand,
the hand which let her keep fighting,
through all the pains,

she closed her eyes,
and she beats,
she pumps,
until she opens her eyes,
and see that she’s shining,
the light radiates her surroundings,

she was a heart,
a heart whose still living,
in spite of all the grief,
she’s been suffering,
she keeps fighting,
until the day came that she shines,
she sparks endlessly,
and all the grief, pain and worries,
had been washed away

It has always fascinated me how many people have sacrificed their lives or the quality of their life for the freedom that all Americans enjoy every day. I can’t imagine the impact that these misfortunes have on not only the soldiers, but the lives of their families and friends.

I always take the time each Memorial Day to think of the soldiers and the freedom that we have and say a little prayer for all of those who are in harm’s way today.

Unfortunately, I am embarrassed and sorry to say, that I don’t think many people REALLY are grateful for the many things that they take pleasure in because of what our soldiers and veterans have sacrificed. It is for that reason that I decided to post some statistics of all of the wars that America has fought. I have found the following information…

“Every new truth which has ever been propounded has, for a time caused mischief; it has produced discomfort, and often unhappiness; sometimes disturbing social and religious arrangements… And if the truth is very great as well as very new, the harm is serious. Men are made uneasy; they flinch; they cannot bear the sudden light; a general restlessness supervenes; the face of society is disturbed, or perhaps convulsed; old interests and old beliefs have been destroyed before new ones have been created. These symptoms are the precursors of revolution; they have preceded all the great changes which the world has passed.”

– HENRY THOMAS BUCKLE (1821-1862) English historian

Recently, the United States Veterans Administration (VA) has been the focus of much coverage and reporting by the media. Most reports have centered on very long wait times for veterans seeking medical attention and treatment…
