Bosnia and Herzegovina is still sown with mines and wounds. The mines have been removed slowly, and wounds heal with difficulty, while new ones are opened. This goes on like a road leading to the end of the horizon.
Over the old wounds and mines, people keep adding hatred and reawakening fears: primarily parties which the Dayton Accords had to erase from the political scene for Bosnia and Herzegovina to embark unhampered into the new life. That is why Bosnian citizens have been traveling for too long on the road from insanity to common sense. Who will bring the common sense, can it ever arrive and, if so, when, is still unknown.
It is time again for local elections for representatives and mayors, but few believe that the electorate will be able to choose moral persons with sound minds. There are too many sheep pens and rams here, and we are still far from a real state and rule of law. That is why Bosnia and Herzegovina will remain a country without an address where normal people could find secure cooperation of any kind. Brussels is still making calculations whom to support in this. This is the reason why, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the citizens are still sufferers.
Most of the parties that struck the match to put the powder barrel on fire in the nineties are still present on the political scene. The new parties are not much different from the old ones, because they were all hatched under the same hen. The life, hopelessly, drives around in circles.
What Serbian Radical Party Vojislav Seselj did in Bijeljina on 14 September 2008 reminded of the beginning of the bloody feast in Bijeljina in 1992. Everything was the same, with the exception of weapons and killings. The party president Mirko Blagojevic, an extreme radical, and his buddies threatened they would silence the Adhan (the call to prayer recited in Arabic by muezzin from the minaret) from the Atik mosque. Atik mosque is situated in the downtown right next to the residence of bishop Vasilije Kacavenda, on whose wink it was destroyed, though newly built and still unfinished, in 1993. The then president of the Executive Board of Bijeljina municipality, Svetozar Mihajlovic, signed the actual destruction.
It riles the radicals that they hear the loud Adhan again and that the Atik mosque can again receive the faithful. That is why the radicals rampaged on the height of the election campaign and in the time of Ramadan. Their goal was to win voters of the same orientation who use the same language of hatred, while bringing hatred and fear among the Bosniaks, the Muslims.
To make it worse, Serbian Radical Party Vojislav Seselj in Bijeljina and its president

blame Jusuf Trbic, famous journalist and author and president of the Bosniak cultural community Revival in Bijeljina, for the loudness of Adhan. It is tragic that Jusuf Trbic is accused by Mirko Blagojevic, the originator of Trbic's affliction and suffering during the war. The inhabitants of Semberia still remember well the war bacchanalia of Mirko Blagojevic and his company. It was he that, armed to his teeth, took Jusuf Trbic from his house in the beginning of April 1992 and surrendered him into hands of Arkan's

murders, who beat Trbic brutally. It was a miracle that Trbic survived. Instead of being in prison, like his boss, Mirko Blagojevic is still venting threats, sowing hatred and provoking fear. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the murderers and thugs still walk freely. Unfortunately, most of the media in Dodik's entity support wholeheartedly and fail to condemn such behavior.
Of course, no party, either the ruling ones or those in the opposition, condemned the violence, threats and sowing of hatred in Bijeljina by Serbian Radical Party Vojislav Seselj and its leader Mirko Blagojevic. Bishop Kacavenda, who witnessed, knew of and approved all that, also failed to react. This is the revival of the old scenario. As long as this goes on, there will be no peace among the people in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We know who can profit from this situation. The crazed, robbed, unemployed and humiliated citizens do not need it.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is sown with wounds and mines: this has lasted for long and without an end in sight. It is difficult to walk in this country, and it is even more difficult to arrive at a state of happiness and a peaceful life. All the while, Miroslav Lajcak continues to issue mellifluous statements with the familiar smile.
Cry, beloved land.
