Šarčević and Ninić Launch Witch Hunt Against Bosnian Children Over March 1st: Supported by Rajko Vasić and Gorica Dodik

(Patria) - Although in recent years there has been a noticeable trend of stronger and more comprehensive marking of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Independence Day, it seems that this year, compared to previous years, a significant step forward has been made.

Among the numerous activities held, ceremonial parades in many Bosnian-Herzegovinian cities (in both entities) stood out, while in Tuzla itself, around 7,000 primary and secondary school students gathered in Freedom Square to mark the Independence Day of their homeland.

However, it seems that such an atmosphere has provoked a segment of public and social workers who, in their barely concealed animosity towards Bosniaks, and Bosnians and Herzegovinians, have let loose on social networks.

This time, children were targeted. Franjo Šarčević, a professor at the University of Sarajevo, was bothered by a picture of a boy with a beret and lilies. Šarčević described the photograph as sick, and received support in this from the former Secretary General of SNSD, Rajko Vasić, who a few years ago threatened Bosniaks with a new genocide.

The daughter of the president of the RS entity, Gorica Dodik, also supported Šarčević's denunciation of children, and she also disliked the scenes of children celebrating BiH's Independence Day.



Franjo Ninić, a member of the Interreligious Council, called the children celebrating Independence Day an army of nationalists and demagogues.



Šarčević's and Ninić's posts prompted numerous users of social networks of Croatian and Serbian nationalist orientation to post a series of hate messages on social networks.

Social networks continue to be a platform for spreading national and religious hatred. However, what is particularly concerning is the fact that professors and members of the Interreligious Council of BiH are now appearing as initiators and instigators of witch hunts against children.



They should certainly know that in 1992, the golden lily emblem adorned the flag of BiH, a state recognized by the United Nations. Therefore, it is not a 'war flag', but an internationally recognized symbol of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Also, the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina was the only legal army in the territory of BiH during the aggression, and the question is why they are bothered by the fact that new generations of our country are learning about it and love their homeland.
