My bad sister it was a freudian slip. Continue the thread

It's cool. I messed up the headings in the OP, I used three asterisks instead of three apostrophes.

But back to the topic. It's crazy how many people don't know that NATO as been appointing a governor to Bosnia for the last 30 years. They plan on doing it indefinitely. They decided that the people in Bosnia cannot govern themselves or can't be trusted to. Then they call the governor a "peace envoy" lmao.

Isn't that authoritarianism? In the full sense of the word. What liberals imagine the presidents of """regimes""" do, a single person overseeing everything, is literally what defenders of the "rule based" liberal democratic world order are doing in Europe and have no plans on stopping.

"If liberals didn't have double standards, they wouldn't have any standards at all."

It's a dialectical kind of freedom you see. By not recognizing the Bosnian's right to elect his representatives freely, he can consciously recognize the absence of free choice in national political decisionmaking implicit in the framework of liberal capitalism and NATO hegemony that's not obvious to most of us. In this way, he gains a higher stage of understanding than the common liberal citizen of a country without a personified governor-general, because he can't fetishistically attribute the workings of the state, capital and society to the people he votes for every 4 years.

>Bosnia is the only Muslim country in Europe.
What? WTF are you talking about? Bosnia isn't even the most muslim country in Europe, Albania and Kosovo are far more muslim (I doubt you recognize Kosovo but still).

Other than that, yeah you're largely correct. The office of the High Representative is not appointed by "NATO", though, it's appointed by the "Peace Implementation Council", which is a Western-dominated council that includes Russia and Serbia. I get why you'd consider this to be comparable to just being "Appointed by NATO" but I do believe that words have meanings and we should adhere to them.

Picrel is a map of the "Peace Implementation Council". It also includes a number of organizations that can't be included on a map. It seems that the West basically dominates this organization and non-Western nations like Russia do not have enough power to override that, given that they consider the current High Representative Christian Schmidt (Who I also attached a picture of because he looks like Norm Macdonald) to be illegitimate.

Also, listen to this:
>Valentin Inzko, during his tenure as high representative, declared: "We have to wait for the moment that Bosnia–Herzegovina is irreversibly on its way to Euro-Atlantic integration, then we should shut down the Office."
LMFAO how blatant

I should have said "The West" or "white Europe". Bosnians are white passing, some of them even have blonde hair and/or blue eyes.

Albania is just starting to "open up". A lot of Arabs, especially rich ones from Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Yemen, move to Bosnia, sometimes buying up whole villages, forming wahabi enclaves. Let's not pretend that Bosnia and Albania are the same, have the same culture or same access to the West.

Bosnians are culturally Muslim. They are Muslim like European countries are Christian. That's why foreign Muslims stand out in Bosnia, they wear their traditional garb, the women walk around in burqas. Bosnian women don't even cover their hair, they wear jeans, etc. Bosnia is a Western Muslim land.

That is why Bosnia is important, it is a gateway to the Middle East. That's why EU/germany wants to control it.

>I get why you'd consider this to be comparable to just being "Appointed by NATO" but I do believe that words have meanings and we should adhere to them.
We should look at effects and results, not labels and intentions.

>a Western-dominated council that includes Russia and Serbia.
I think it's important to note that this was 1995/1996, Yeltsin's Russia. Russia/Yeltsin were doing anything the USA wanted, they were added to the council because they'd vote with the USA. I don't think today's Russia gets a say. And even if they did, they'd be outvoted. It'd be interesting to see if Europe symbolically invites a Russian representative per agreement.

<"We have to wait for the moment that Bosnia–Herzegovina is irreversibly on its way to Euro-Atlantic integration,"
That's why I said appointed by NATO. They can dress it up how they want, I'm tired of playing their rhetorical word games, I call them as I see them.

Too bad our people are retarded and cannot or don't want to fight the occupation, because we are too occupied with accusing each other of genocide and endless moralism about the civil war. Tito should have just genocided every Bosniak, Serb and Croat

The Balkans had a glimpse of cultural relevancy and hard-power from 1945-1992 and they collectively decided it shouldnt ever happen again and massacring your neighbor over who was the less groyped by Ottomans was better.
Ethnonationalism, not even once.

>Bosnia always seems to be on the verge of war
don't worry its all mostly just theatrics and empty threats spew by the corrupt politicans (oligarchs and gangsters) to keep the proles divided, no one is actually interested in another war due to it being harmful to their wealth (and a lack of competence)

I think it's better to tell the truth and then elaborate on the implications of that truth, otherwise it looks like we're lying.

>>2819077
But I am speaking "the truth". I am saying what's really happening. Even the media calls him a "viceroy". I think "governor" is a synonym (or close to) for "viceroy".

I FUCKING LOVE BOSNIA
