...And whoever thinks he doesn't feel like singing...

Once upon a time there was a small country. Everyone lived happily and contentedly in it, mostly because of the flag and the anthem. A great celebration was being prepared...

A decade of independence...

Millennium of statehood...

The democratic path to the European Union and an invitation to join NATO...

Gross domestic product growth faster than world...

Huge increase in livestock numbers...

A billion euros, some brought in, some taken out...

The subjects were especially looking forward to a transitional government that would not steal votes...

They also rejoiced at the plea agreements and the election results...

And then in parliament, a group of ill-mannered politicians, from both sides, rewrote the ending of the fairy tale...

Milo, thief... Bravo, you idiots... Come here, why are you arguing... You monkey... Shut up, you idiot... You little brat... You scumbag...

This was the beginning of my first column in Vijesti, on May 21, 2016.

The beginning of my fight for independence, 26 years earlier, was drastically different because I literally cried the first five...

And not just me, a mass of tears - and not just tears - were shed by some twenty or more thousand free people who had only their hearts as a tool to defend themselves and their country...

So, before we get into the material, let's be clear:

The Liberal Alliance, Liberal, Monitor, Vijesti, Social Democratic Party and parties of smaller nations fought for the independence of Montenegro...

In the first ten years of that struggle, the Democratic Party of Socialists did everything it could to ensure an independent Montenegro - not to be...

She considered not only parties but also all free individuals from the sovereignist, anti-war and pro-European bloc to be enemies; of the epithets she attached to them at the time, traitor and Ustasha sound the most polite today...

And then, when she couldn't defeat those enemies, she joined them...

At first very discreetly, writing independence into the party program (only) at the beginning of the new millennium...

Finally, with a public referendum campaign and secret ballot...

Therefore, free painting on the eve of this anniversary...

The honorary president's jubilee justification that the DPS was waiting for the sovereign idea to mature in the public is in vain, because it was not public opinion that created state policy, but the state government that created public opinion...

In the early 1990s, it created it so that the restoration of Montenegrin independence would become a crime, and war crimes and peacetime crimes would become state policy...

This (new) government is also in a bad position with this part of the material, otherwise it would not, even in its sixth year of rule, attribute the private state, autocracy, corruption and crime only to politics after 2006...

And, what is much more dangerous in the long run, it based its state policy on DePee's from the 1990s...

Because the nineties are the birthplace of the private state, autocracy, corruption and crime...

For this reason, the vote for NO in 2006 was a vote for a private state, only the name of that state and its owner were different...

If a private state had not been created in 1992, the referendum would not have been boycotted by, in addition to Montenegrin sovereignists, unionists from the People's Party, the most Serbian of all in the history of Montenegro...

* * *

I'm late again with the renewal of the materials and they'll be on Facebook again about how this old lady is drowning at ninety, but that's stronger than me...

Because in the early nineties, the fate of Montenegro was set not only for the past three and a half decades, but also for at least as many more to come...

In that drawing, unfortunately, a part of its inhabitants still recognizes a road map to the true goal...

The other part, equally unfortunately, believes that everything was resolved because official Montenegro renounced itself from the 1990s two decades ago and that DPS took over the LSCG program...

The third and - most sadly - smallest part of Montenegro, the one that still believes its own eyes, knows: neither the renunciation nor the takeover was anything to it...

Free individual, Free people, Liberal democracy, Private property, Free market, Social justice, Democratic and independent state - these seven points contain the program of the Liberal Alliance...

On this issue, the government's performance over twenty years looks like this:

In the first fourteen, the former regime managed to implement only the second half of the seventh point...

In the last six, the (new) government is also erasing that little church...

For years, on the eve of every May 21st, I have had the desire to ask the bearer of the 2006 Memorial - was it worth it...

Not the restoration of independence, it is a natural phenomenon in all internationally recognized states that have disappeared through violence...

But was it worth ruining the lives of thousands of sovereignists for decades just because they were moving towards independence a year and a half before his war for peace and a decade and a half before him personally...

And was it worth it, after the referendum, to persecute those same people - including their already matured young man - for the next decade and a half, until the last day of the depees' rule...

Was it worth it, and I would ask him, to beat some of them like dogs in Cetinje and other squares and streets...

And that's only because we - bare-handed, of course - demanded not only independence for our country, but also freedom, justice and equality for all its inhabitants...

I didn't manage to ask him, but I still got the answer in a pre-holiday interview...

I wouldn't change anything about it, that's what he said...

* * *

I have no questions for this (new) government...

I don't want to be gloomy in these mild, worldly days, but it seems that even six years wasn't enough for her to understand where she was going or how far she had come...

For this reason, my independent country looks somehow sad and doomed...

Okay, I understand that incomplete nations have a hard time rising above ethnic differences and are slow to achieve so-called supranational, or rather general societal agreements...

And that without such agreements, the past is constantly happening to the communities of such peoples instead of the future...

In healthy societies, I understand, it is difficult to make coalitions of horns in a bag functional...

But, that such efficiency can be achieved in destroying even the little unity that remained to us after the former regime, I simply cannot understand that...

P.S. Anyway, to all who have reason to be happy - happy holiday! To those who are mourning Mirko Pajčin - sincere condolences. Because they cannot, cannot or will not understand that the problem is not only in his songs but also in his nickname. Because "knindže" did not become famous for their easy notes three and a half decades ago, but for their serious crimes...
