The graveside bench that could snare most wanted war criminal
By Peter Wilson in Belgrade

Is Serbian authorities had really wanted to catch Ratko Mladic over the past decade a smart place to start would have been a well-kept grave site in Belgrade's Topcider cemetery.

While police and intelligence services have supposedly been scouring the nation for the man who masterminded the 1995 slaughter of 8,000 men and boys in Srebrenica, General Mladic has regularly been spotted visiting the grave of his daughter Ana.

Last Friday, as 10,000 Mladic supporters from the nationalist Radical Party gathered a few miles away in main square in Belgrade to protest against international demands that the former Bosnian Serb general must finally be handed over, Ana's grave was once again unmonitored.

A few people wrapped in heavy jackets quietly cleaned other graves dotted around the cemetery, which is spread over a wooded hillside in the city's south-east suburbs, but nobody paid any attention to Ana's resting place or the wooden bench installed beside it.

A chilly wind had sprinkled pine needles over the grave. Somebody had recently placed two fresh bouquets of purple flowers on its grey granite, which bears a simple inscription in Cyrillic script: the family name and then "Ana 1971-1994." The death of Ana, a beautiful medical student, from a single gunshot to the head left her doting father deeply depressed and the Serbian public intrigued by her apparent suicide and its impact on General Mladic.

Munira Subasic, a Muslim widow from Srebrenica, has had more cause than most to wonder about General Mladic's behaviour after Ana's death.

"There have been thousands of nights when I have laid in my bed unable to sleep, asking myself how he could lose his daughter like that and then inflict the same pain on other parents," she said in an interview in the Bosnian capital, Sarajevo.

"This was a human being who had felt the pain that only a parent can, and then he killed so many other children, destroyed so many other parents . . . Losing his daughter should have sent him on the right path. Instead it sent him twice as far on the wrong path — perhaps it somehow made him more brutal and unable to care about other people's pain."

Ms Subasic, talking in an office run by a support group of Srebrenica widows, was speaking from terrible experience. On July 12, 1995, she tearfully pleaded face to face with Mladic in Potocari, a village outside Srebrenica, to save the life of her son Nermin, 19.

General Mladic had just led his men into the "safe haven" which was supposedly protected by Dutch peacekeepers, and addressed a terrified crowd in front of Serbian television cameras. Standing in an open car park, General Mladic assured the thousands of families who had been herded together that they would be safe, even as his ethnic Serbian troops began the ominous process of separating males aged 12 to 70 from their women and children.

"There was already the smell of blood in the air, and when Mladic stopped talking and the cameras went off I pushed forward and begged him to spare Nermin because he was ill. He looked me in the eyes, asked my son's name and said he would be safe. Then he cheated me."

Ms Subasic's friend Kada Kotic was also standing just two or three yards from General Mladic. She heard him turn to his bodyguards and other soldiers clustered around him and say, "Brothers, use this chance well because we will never have an opportunity like this again."

Their "opportunity" was to wipe out any possibility of future resistance by exterminating most of the men of Srebrenica. Ms Subasic's son was dragged away and never seen again. Her husband Hilmo, 50, an engineer, was found in a mass grave.

The Mladic family's own tragedy had come just over a year earlier. Ana had always been close to her father, a career soldier admired by his men for his willingness to eat and sleep with the ordinary troops.

A former senior official in the Serbian Government said that during a family celebration in the 1980s — when General Mladic had been a mid-ranking officer in the army of the united Yugolsavia — he had taken out his favourite pistol, won as an award at military school, and declared that he would only ever fire it to celebrate the birth of a Mladic grandson.

Ana allegedly replied that in that case she would keep the Mladic name when she married so that her father could one day fire the gun when she had a son.

General Mladic orchestrated the siege and shelling of the Bosnian capital, Sarajevo, which would eventually claim at least 12,000 lives.

Ana died on March 24, 1994, with conflicting accounts saying her body was found in her blood-splattered bedroom, in a nearby park or in the woods near the Topcider cemetery. All accounts agreed that she was killed with her father’s treasured pistol.

Some of General Mladic's supporters claimed that she had been depressed about the vilification of her father over atrocities committed by his troops. His critics contend that she took her life after being horrified by her father's actions, perhaps even making her own tragic protest. Family members said she had always been ebullient until a study trip to Russia a few months earlier, which had left her depressed.

In Russia she may have been exposed for the first time to independent news reports about the atrocities being committed in the Balkans. The one-sided nature of Serbian media coverage was such that many Serbs were genuinely shocked last year by the broadcast of newly uncovered video footage showing Bosnian Serb troops killing civilian men at Srebrenica.

A third theory about Ana's death — one widely held in Belgrade — is that she was murdered by hardline political or security forces who wanted to keep General Mladic in line. Proponents of that theory point out that it is unusual for a woman to choose a handgun when committing suicide, and that it was hard to believe she would use her father’s favourite pistol to do so.

Whatever the truth, it was after her death that Mladic is accused of ordering the murders, mass rapes and "ethnic cleansing" that became the biggest bloodbath in Europe since the Second World War.

According to Serbian media accounts, the distraught father asked the military doctor who performed the post-mortem examination, Zoran Stankovic, to retrieve the bullet from Ana's brain and to cut off her hair so he could keep both for ever.

Mr Stankovic later told a Serbian magazine that he had formed a special bond with General Mladic, as he had done occasionally with families for whom he had performed autopsies. Mr Stankovic is now the Serbian Defence Minister whose forces have failed repeatedly to capture General Mladic.

The minister indignantly denies going soft in the hunt but his ministry was recently forced to admit that General Mladic had been allowed to keep drawing his military pension while supposedly on the run, and that serving and former members of the military had helped to shield him.

Some people believe, not only the network of Serbian military and security officials who have made Mladic free to roam, but also the reluctance of international community, at least in the first years. NATO Members avoided the actions that could threaten the peace after war, that was still fragile. I think there was a kind of collective reluctance among Nato military commanders and their command was not only American but also British command. They feared that if they acted against Ratko Mladic, would be no major political disruption or other disruptions. But as soon as time passed, the West became increasingly hard determination to imprison him and increased its pressure on Serbia. International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague said it was confident that he was hiding in Serbia for years, "within reach" the authorities in Belgrade.

Israel clears way for Serb's extradition hearings
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
01/19/2011 17:18

An Israeli judge has cleared the way for Israeli prosecutors to try to extradite a former Bosnian Serb soldier back to his homeland to face genocide charges.

A Jerusalem judge on Wednesday ordered Aleksander Cvetkovic to remain in jail during extradition proceedings. The 42-year-old Cvetkovic covered his face with his hands as he entered the courtroom for the hearing.

Cvetkovic was arrested on Tuesday following a Bosnian extradition request accusing him of participating in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre, where more than 8,000 Muslim men were killed.

His attorney says he "stands on his innocence."

Bosnia says he was part of a firing squad that executed between 1,000 and 1,200 Bosnian Muslims at the Branjevo Farm in July 1995. The request for his extradition was submitted by the government of Bosnia-Herzegovina on August 29, 2010.

Cvetkovic immigrated to Israel with his wife and children in 2006 and received Israeli citizenship because his wife is Jewish. He was living in Carmiel and worked in a factory and in construction before his arrest.

"Because I always feel like running
Not away, because there is no such place
Because if there was, I would have found it by now
Because it's easier to run,
Easier than staying and finding out
you're the only one who didn't run
Because running will be the way your life and mine will be described,
As in "the long run"
Or as in having "given someone a run for his money"
Or as in "running out of time"
Because running makes me look like everyone else,
though I hope there will ever be cause for that
Because I will be running in the other direction, not running for cover
Because if I knew where cover was, I would stay there and never have to run for it
Not running for my life, because I have to be running for something of more value to be running and not in fear
Because the thing I fear cannot be escaped, eluded, avoided, hidden from, protected from, gotten away from,
Not without showing the fear as I see it now
Because closer, clearer, no sir, nearer
Because of you and because of that nice
That you quietly, quickly be causing
And because you're going to see me run soon and because you're going to know why I'm running then
You'll know then
Because I'm not going to tell you now"

Understanding The Jazz As An Expression Language

Understanding The Jazz As An Expression Language
by Cisca Zarmansyah


Jazz is basically the language of musical expression, it is very individual. In America today I see many black jazz musicians use jazz music as an expression of political culture to voice their position as a minority. This awareness I can even see the black jazz musicians who are still teenagers. If you have time to listen to jazz in the southern city of Chicago, you will know that jazz music performances there have a different context with jazz performances at clubs downtown area of Chicago.

What matters here is not good or poor quality of their play. Jazz that I hear in the clubs of Chicago is part of an entertainment industry, even if it does not reduce the weight of the music itself. I often hear jazz in the south of Chicago is a subversive political expression to the dominance of white society. Here the black jazz musicians are very aware that they play jazz in the context of making a firm statement about their cultural identity. They even claim that jazz, specifically, is a black American community music. I see this awareness induced in since they still play jazz at the elementary school level.

If jazz has a status like this, you can imagine how should we play jazz. Thus, basically playing jazz music is to express our expression as strongly as possible for others to hear our voice. As jazz evolves into a global musical language, musicians around the world take advantage of it. The musicians who are not black is not able to claim jazz as an expression of their identity politics, because they do not live in a social context and the same history. However, this does not mean jazz musicians who are not black should not use jazz as a language of personal expression.


As part of American society, they are accustomed to voicing their opinions out loud, no matter what their skin color. Therefore, jazz can be a part of their emotional life.

In other words, jazz is not just music. That is a very powerful culture container. Every jazz player from any cultural background should be able to tell their emotions at play, and in this expression must also be able to communicate them.

The language of jazz music is created specially for the sake of it. By doing so, will create an excellent jazz performances. The advantages of jazz music is not owned by other types of music anywhere in the world. Jazz is a genre of music that is born in a specific cultural context, but can grow effectively become the international language of expression. In addition, when the verbal language is often co-opted by the dominant groups of society, the language of jazz music can give us the opportunity to continue to communicate amongst humanely without trapped in an ideological social construction.

Lakshmi Lavanya : what are the limits of jazz today? I hear it is served no longer pure, there are also many other musical elements. But this would make it sound more colorful, not monotonous, and can be enjoyed by all walks of life.

Pranay Suresh : It's nice to think of history in all respects. Initially, they didn't realize that their tones would be a very beautiful song. They were also not familiar with Western instruments. After French people left their plantations, they found the musical instruments such as piano, drums, saxophone, and bass. They tried to play it without reading musical notes and without knowing the real meaning of Western music.

Pranay Suresh : One interesting thing to me is the origin of the word "jazz" that comes from a vulgar term used for sexual acts. Some jazz rhythm was associated with the brothels and women with a negative reputation, but along with running time, it became a musical art form both in composition and improvisation that reflected its melodic spontaneously. Not bad!

Adriaan Zef : My wife, you are good at making me feel flattered. Thank you for consider me as your husband. And indeed, for me, the couple is you and me.

Keeping The Character



Remember the fairy tale of Malin Kundang? He was a poor boy from Sumatra (Indonesia), who sought his fortune on the seacoast. For years he was exploring the various islands to pursue a dream. He fared better. After became the rich man and married a beautiful girl, he sailed home with beautiful and luxurious ship. Arriving in the village, was where he got the life test. An old woman dressed in rags came to pick him. Immediately, the old woman rushed to hug him and confessed that she was his mother.

When his wife asked whether the older woman was his mother, Malin Kundang, in shame, didn't admit it. The mother, who had long waited for and longed for him, in sorrow and disappointment then prayed, "If it is true he is my son, I hope he becomes a stone." So, Malin Kundang turned into a stone.

In the past, such tales were circulating as informal education to maintain the behavior and maintain the character. For example, there was also a tale about brothers who have ignored the advice of their parents. Because the upset, both of their parents decided to turn into birds and flew away from them. In their cries, the children heard the birds singing were singing as if saying, "That's what you get if you ignore your parents advice."

From ancient times there is always a fairy-tale or phrases or expressions full of wisdom messages. Among the Muslims, in the Middle East, there's the mystical and philosophical movement of Sufis in the 11th -12 th century. According to its history (Religions of the World, 1971), because the Sufi way of life tends to renounce the world to dedicate themselves in devotion to God alone, they are regarded as saints by the multitude of Muslims. The interesting thing is, the fairy tales and wise phrases that had been disseminated by them, much quoted by the world literature. There are a lot of their works are useful for informal education in order to build the society's character.

There was a Sufi named Attar who lived in Nishapar, Persia (Iran) in the 12th century. His works were considered important, because by his community, it was considered to be helpful and maintain a network of social and ethical values of Islam.

There was another writer named Saadi Persian from Shiraz (13th century). His classic works collected in The Orchard (Bostan) and The Rose Garden (Gulistan) were very famous and widely translated into many languages. He perpetuated the Sufism in Persian literature. Some of his quotes are, "A jewel that fell into the mud did not diminish its value." ; "No one is throwing a barren tree that does not bear fruit." ; "When we see the beggars do not eat, the food seems to make a sick and toxic." ; "The wealth of the sea is not unexpected, but if you want to survive, stay on the beach." ; "The Arabian horse ran fast. The camel moved slowly, but the camel walk day and night."

In ancient times, people everywhere seemed like fairy tales and phrases that contained the profound positive message. This is a kind of informal education without sounding to impose, but effective way to keep maintaining the values of life are respected by and within the community.

Lately, fairy tales or the bedtime of wise phrases are rarely heard. Children usually get other types of practical entertainment that don't bother their parents, such as a spectacle of violence through the electronic tools. Along with that, the temptations of worldliness more intense, the competition increasingly fierce. We witnessed the violation manners everywhere, in various forms and ways. It's not only sneak in family life, but also in the society, state, political and religious life.

If in the old days we often heard the expressions of rebellious child, so now it seems we more often see the children who suffer because of neglect by their parents. Thousands of street children scattered in various parts of the world. Certainly too cliche if we talk about poverty and unemployment as the reason. What will happen is, the growth of child life will be disrupted due to trauma in childhood. Even it's possible the uncomfortable experience will be the uncertainty revenge in adulthood.

Running the informal education through the parental advice, stories, and phrases wisely can help build the character, considering its implementation can begin from an early age and continue until the adulthood. This education can be strengthened through non-formal education institutions or political associations, religious, sports or other organizations, as well as by formal education in schools that its curriculum can be adjusted to the needs of nation. As Saadi said, "If we take the straight road, it is impossible to get lost."

Fairuz Azalia : An interesting review, C. I agree with your idea. Fairy tales are useful for children, other than useful for sharpening their intellect and imagination, we can also instill the values and ethics, and motivate their reading interests.

Pranay Suresh : Fairuz, I think everything has its positive and negative sides. Things we need to look at is, it turns out the tales of children sometimes are dangerous. In a discussion between me and my two sisters, the fairy tale that is told to children will indirectly affect the patterns of their thought and behavior. So, don't be surprised if the bad behavior of children and adolescents come from fairy tales.


Jan Pepijn Servaas : Try to ask the younger siblings, or children about the story that they know. How the story of Alexander the Great, Haman, Harut, Nimrod, Queen of Sheba, Asiyah, Zulaikha or 25 prophets?

Almira Izzati : ‎@ Pranay Suresh, why can it be dangerous?

Pranay Suresh : Almira Izzati, Let us examine the story closely. Sleeping Beauty (Grimm Brothers) its brief, the Princess fell asleep because the needle pricked her finger. The curse was missing after a prince kissed her. Imagine it, a young man kissed a young woman (at the time told that the Princess's age was 15 years old) who was sleeping. So, don't be surprised if many teenagers now are kissing before marriage. Or even more than kissing....? .....


Cisca Zarmansyah : Kashmir, did you know when I was at the age of 16 years, ... since the first time he kissed me, I was still sleeping until now!


Almira Izzati : Pranay, she was the Cinderella who liked party since she was 17 years old .....

Cisca Zarmansyah : Stephen. I'm just a fool, that's why I believe there is life after death. And my belief about life after death makes me feel that the life I lead now become more meaningful. I'm not afraid of the dark, I'm just afraid of blindness while my eyes still can see. We have an equation to find the greatest value from each of our actions. I also don't want to rush to die, I also can't accelerate my death and I'm not going to do things that cause the death. Because I believe that death and life are God's creations. And until now you will not be able to explain why you and I are still alive. If you die first, I'll make a poem for you. (Love - Cisca Zarmansyah)

Jan Pepijn Servaas: Many people are clever, but ridiculous

Jan Pepijn Servaas: Two of his thesis about heaven and God's are pretty horrendous, though they are not quite thrilling.

Almira Izzati : He is the virus of anti heaven..

Lakshmi Lavanya : ‎"Belief in God is not about plugging a gap in explaining how one thing relates to another within the Universe. It is the belief that there is an intelligent, living agent on whose activity everything ultimately depends for its existence. Physics on its own will not settle the question of why there is something rather than nothing" Dr Rowan Williams in Telegraph : http://www.telegraph.co.uk​/news/religion/7979093/Ste​phen-Hawking-religious-lea​ders-dismiss-God-not-neede​d-comments.html

"Let's take the law mentioned by Dr. Hawking above – the law of gravity. It has a specific constant associated with it and specific characteristics, and it has specific effects on mass-energy and even on space-time itself. This is a very curious definition of 'nothing'. Now if we rephrase Dr Hawking's statement in the above fashion, then he has clearly not explained why there is something rather than nothing. He has only explained that something comes from something," Jesuit priest and scholar, former president of Gongaza University Fr Robert Spitzer : http://www.indcatholicnews​.com/news.php?viewStory=16​662

Valentino Vie in May and June

Mon Amour Nino



Les moments où je mets mes mains sur tes seins si doux au toucher. Bonjour ma femme, Avoir des enfants de vous est la plus belle chose que je veux, dans le reste de ma vie. Tenez-vous bien. Je vous aimerai toujours, et personne ne ou la chose ne peut l'ébranler.



Mon Amour Nino





Tout conjugue le verbe aimer. Voici les roses. Je ne suis pas en train de parler d'autres choses. Premier mai! l'amour gai, triste, brûlant, jaloux. Fait soupirer les bois, les nids, les fleurs, les loups. L'arbre où j'ai, l'autre automne, écrit une devise. La redit pour son compte et croit qu'il l'improvise. Les vieux antres pensifs, dont rit le geai moqueur. Clignent leurs gros sourcils et font la bouche en coeur. L'atmosphère, embaumée et tendre, semble pleine. Des déclarations qu'au Printemps fait la plaine. Et que l'herbe amoureuse adresse au ciel charmant. A chaque pas du jour dans le bleu firmament, la campagne éperdue, et toujours plus éprise. Prodigue les senteurs, et dans la tiède brise. Envoie au renouveau ses baisers odorants. Tous ses bouquets, azurs, carmins, pourpres, safrans. Dont l'haleine s'envole en murmurant: Je t'aime! Sur le ravin, l'étang, le pré, le sillon même, Font des taches partout de toutes les couleurs. Et, donnant les parfums, elle a gardé les fleurs. Comme si ses soupirs et ses tendres missives. Au mois de mai, qui rit dans les branches lascives. Et tous les billets doux de son amour bavard. Avaient laissé leur trace aux pages du buvard! Les oiseaux dans les bois, molles voix étouffées. Chantent des triolets et des rondeaux aux fées. Tout semble confier à l'ombre un doux secret. Tout aime, et tout l'avoue à voix basse. On dirait. Qu'au nord, au sud brûlant, au couchant, à l'aurore. La haie en fleur, le lierre et la source sonore. Les monts, les champs, les lacs et les chênes mouvants. Répètent un quatrain fait par les quatre vents.

(Premier mai - VICTOR HUGO, Les contemplations)

Adriaan Zef : Nope! I'm erect.

Adriaan Zef : Come on, hon.

Adriaan Zef : Skip that SOB!

Adriaan Zef : You are mine.

Adriaan Zef : No need clothes. No need bras. Come on, time for our bed.

Cisca Zarmansyah : No, blue beard. Wait a minute. I still want to type a little more, ... "There was a great king who depressed and lost his confidence. One day he called all the people in his country. He said,"

Cisca Zarmansyah: ‎... BB, are you still there?

Adriaan Zef: Get out of my mind.

Adriaan Zef : Ok, go ahead. Promise me, briefly only. What did he say?

Cisca Zarmansyah: ‎"I want a special ring that can reconcile the country. I want the ring has a peculiarity that can make me happy when I'm sad, and can make me sad when I'm happy."

Adriaan Zef : Don't start me with your silly fantasy, hon. Please.

Cisca Zarmansyah : No. Just listen to me. Let me continue it. Of course, the king's desire confused the clever people in the country.

Adriaan Zef : who cares? all to hell!

Cisca Zarmansyah:  After sharing ideas, thinking hard and negotiate, then the clever people finally agreed to make the ring was inscribed with these words.


Adriaan Zef : what words?

Cisca Zarmansyah : hehheee.... I don't know. Once completed, the ring was directly saved by the king.

Adriaan Zef : stop sticking your tongue out!

Adriaan Zef: stop laughing!

Adriaan Zef : You lie!.....

Adriaan Zef : I'm sure you know it!

Cisca Zarmansyah : Ok, let us sleep now. You are already angry. Promise me, no love bites tonight.

Adriaan Zef : No, I can't promise you.

Adriaan Zef : You really make my nerves curly. But don't worry.

Adriaan Zef:  I'll make you say what is written in the ring! you must tell it to me!

Adriaan Zef : Ok, come on.





Valentino Vie : There is the moon at night. A man is silent with a thousand words, just stares with his wounded heart, his heart is hurt. The air is heavy with romance so suffocating his chest, when the love hit by a wall. Please open your heart's door that is always frozen. So I can see the moon again in your face. Do not hide your heart to me. I, a man, and the moon, you, united in the night when the wind blows in the breeze here.

Cisca Zarmansyah
When the moon was asked, "What do you want?" I heard its answer was, "I hope the sun disappears, hiding behind the clouds forever!"

Fairuz Azalia, Almira Izzati and Lakshmi Lavanya like this.


Valentino Vie : Only the sun that can accommodate its moon's dreams. You are my moon and I am your sun. The light of beauty that you have is derived from the light power that I have. You are my moon, my woman. I am your man, your sun. Do not hide me from you.

I need you to see my strength and you need me to see your beauty. Let the stars watch this story.

I am the biggest star for you, and you do not have to expect a small star to decorate your night, because we have been through a few nights without stars in the sky, and life still goes on.

"Thank you for your perception! I like your romantic side, even if I do not always comment and I'm glad that you're in my circle of friends."
(Courtesies by: Wolfgang A. Gerhardt)

Wolfgang A.Gerhardt : May be you like this Sunday collage

Cisca Zarmansyah : Before today, there never was a person doing this to me. You create a simple matter to look special. This is a special thing for me.

Cisca Zarmansyah : Thank you. I love it. I love you, my friend.

CieL- FreYa Ceastle : Hmm, he's so nice...















"I am me.
In all the world,
there is no one else exactly like me.
Everything that comes out of me
is authentically mine,
because I alone chose it --
I own everything about me:
my body,
my feelings,
my mouth,
my voice,
all my actions,
whether they be to others or myself.
I own my fantasies,
my dreams,
my hopes,
my fears.
I own my triumphs and successes,
all my failures and mistakes.
Because I own all of me,
I can become intimately acquainted with me.
By so doing,
I can love me
and be friendly with all my parts.
I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me,
and other aspects that I do not know
-- but as long as I am friendly
and loving to myself,
I can courageously and hopefully
look for solutions
to the puzzles and ways
to find out more about me.
However I look and sound,
whatever I say and do,
and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time
is authentically me.
If later some parts of how I looked,
sounded,
thought,
and felt
turn out to be unfitting,
I can discard that which is unfitting,
keep the rest,
and invent something new
for that which I discarded.
I can see,
hear,
feel,
think,
say, and do.
I have the tools to survive,
to be close to others,
to be productive,
and to make sense
and order out of the world of people
and things outside of me.
I own me,
and therefore,
I can engineer me.
I am me,
and I am okay."

VIRGINIA SATIR
(American Phychologist and Educator, 1916-1988)
