Huseinspahić to Dodik and others in RS: Stop dismantling the state and pursuing Greater Serbian politics - it has become clear

(Patria) - Whoever congratulates a Bosniak on Bajram, the Bosniak will also ask them a few questions, stated at the beginning of his new post on social networks Prof. Dr. Ajdin Huseinspahić, university professor at the Department of History of State and Law at the Faculty of Law in Zenica.

We are publishing Huseinspahić's Facebook post in its entirety below.

Yesterday, Bosniak Muslims were addressed by "His Monarchist Excellency" - High Representative Christian Schmidt, who, on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, said: "May Eid al-Adha bring happiness and joy to all of you and to those dearest and closest to you. May the essential values of Eid al-Adha, selfless care for family, friends and neighbors, be your guiding principle in life. Bayram sherif mubarek olsun."

What a wonderful greeting, and even more wonderful are the Bosniaks who will respond to this greeting only with a smile and a word of thanks. But to fulfill all our Bosniak customs, when someone congratulates us on this occasion, we will also respond in an even more courteous and friendly language to His Monarchist Excellency Schmidt.

Dear Schmidt, firstly - Bosniaks are a nation, which means more than a religious community, so for us Bosniaks, joy is brought by Bajram, but equally, and often more than that, by the respect for our will, our voice, respect for the Bosniak hand in the executive bodies of the FBiH entity, which you, Your Monarchist Excellency, suspended for 24 hours, all so that the "Serb Vice President" and the "Croat Entity President" could form a government with the "Bosniak capacities" subservient to them, who have no connection to the majority electoral will of us Bosniaks.

Secondly, Your Monarchist Excellency, you wrote that you want Bajram to bring happiness to us Bosniaks, but also to those dearest and closest to us. To a Bosniak, Herr Schmidt, the dearest and closest was the neighbor, which after 1995 has been greatly reduced only to those neighbors who do not look towards Croatia and Serbia and for whom BiH is the one and only homeland.

Your wish that selfless care for family, friends and neighbors be the Bosniak guiding principle in life seems written in some future tense, because the mentioned principles should not "be", but they have been our life motto for centuries in this beautiful country of Bosnia.

We value our families like few other nations, we Bosniaks quickly make and appreciate friends, we quickly confide in them, and they cold-bloodedly betray us (we are not thinking only of you), and we have respected neighbors throughout history and will respect them more than any nation in Europe.

Look at that multi-confessionalism and the rights of all to celebrate their holidays in Bosnia through the centuries, look at how the fascists exploited that - eastern and western - to dissolve our national being, which you today do not want to admit - pretending to be blind in front of your eyes, the Bosniak people would say.

Look, my High Representative, some Russians entered across the border, you know we are porous, because that is how you wanted it from the international community, so keep an eye out so that the Bosniak is not blamed again for defending his soil and homeland.

That's enough from us Bosniaks when it comes to the greeting. And yes, just so you know, our guiding principle in life, alongside all those principles for which we should be selfless, as you wrote, is the principle of the indivisibility of Bosnia, the preservation of the Bosniak nation, keeping our heads on our shoulders, and restraining the fascist systems which you unfortunately did not extinguish when you should have, so now they threaten us with a repetition of crimes every second, glorify criminals, etc.

So, Your Monarchist Excellency, Bosniaks are awake and thank you for the greeting.

Today, a greeting to "Muslims, believers in the RS entity" on the occasion of Eid al-Adha was sent by the President of the RS entity Milorad Dodik, member of the BiH Presidency from the RS entity Željka Cvijanović, President of the RS entity Assembly Nenad Stevandić, and Prime Minister of the RS entity Radovan Višković. And do you know what all their greetings have in common?

All greetings are addressed to "believers of the Islamic faith in the RS entity and BiH", meaning there are no Bosniaks, and BiH is mentioned as an "appendage of the entity". Along with a courteous "thank you", which a Pakistani currently staying in BiH or a German Muslim visiting his mother-in-law in Bosnia for Bajram could also offer for such greetings, the message to the authorities in that entity, built on the bones of genocide victims, is nevertheless:

"Stop dismantling the state, respect Bosniak Muslims as a nation, not a religious group, stop pursuing Greater Serbian politics - we understand it - it has become clear, stop glorifying criminals, prevent abuse and violence against Bosniak children, stop denying us the right to the Bosnian language...!"

We were once burned on Bajram, that "bloody Bajram" of 1992 - never again, inshaAllah!
