A memorial for Milo too

Dodik, nicknamed Mile, and Kovačević, nicknamed Šubara, warriors from Vučji do, are right about one thing - the Serbian Orthodox Church is the foundation of their gathering and national identity. Because without such a SPC, headed by the finally convicted person Porfirije Perić, Marko could only dream of the mayor's position, while Mile, instead of being the richest inhabitant of the Serbian world, would be an ordinary guy in the Bijeljina Municipal Council. At best, he would be the mayor, working for a salary of a thousand euros a month. But only for a salary. With which, the lord of heaven and earth in the RS, he could not be a millionaire. Or even a billionaire. Because if someone can spend 20.000.000 dollars on American lobbyists, in order to buy freedom and lift sanctions - then he must have 15 or 20 times more in his total account. And all this in perhaps the poorest entity on the European continent, which is called Republika Srpska. Which Mile and Prle are proud of. Including Srebrenica. And what it was like for the subjects, that is, Porfiry's believers, is easy to conclude when you just take a walk through Bijeljina, Gacko, Nevesinje. Sadness, misery and poverty.

The legally convicted Porfirije Perić therefore sends a message to his congregation - do not look at ideology and politics, who vouched and who did not, who is a boss and who is a beggar, it is important that you all express yourself as Serbs and that you know what your first and last name are. Saint Sava. Thus, neither guilty nor guilty, almost a thousand years after his death, that skilled and skillful monk who once made the Serbian Church a serious institution is suffering. Not even like what it represents in the last 30, 50 or 100 years. An ideological and political bludgeon for enforcing religion and nation. And what is even worse - drawing borders. Instead of spreading God's love, virtue, nobility, justice, empathy, and everything else that is listed in God's commandments.

Porfirije doesn't have as much as Mile, but he's just started serving. Vučić of course, not God. And the master AV is known for his generous hand. Do you remember the late Pope Francis - out of the entire city/state of the Vatican, dozens of penthouses, villas and palaces, he chose a small room of about fifty square meters and an iron bed that he used when he was an ordinary priest in Argentina. The patriarch of Mile and Šubara, who teaches us his first and last name, lives in Dedinje in an 874 square meter villa, plus a 188 square meter garage, which, all in accordance with the planning documentation, was built for his holiness and eight cars. Namely, that's how many parking spaces there are in the garage, they don't all have to be for the patriarch's fleet, something has to be left for when guests come. All of this is attributed to the state of Serbia, both the villa and the 700 thousand euro reconstruction, and the new building/garage, but if you ask Mr. Vučić, not God, all of this will one day be attributed to Porfirije. Or, in the worst case and with the anger of God the Father, Perić will be allowed to use the villa and garage while he is alive.

Dodik, therefore, is the best of all Serbs in the world in čacilend, Perić is the top, Knežević is the top, because he has seen not only Moscow but also Washington, so the hatter from Mayor Kovačević logically concluded that it is in the interest of all Serbs, not just the hundred or so who buy cream, to "preserve the unity of the people and the joint action of church and political representatives". Which includes Porfirije as patriarch. Although he was recently sentenced to 4 months in prison and a fine of 10 thousand euros, for mobbing Željko Lubard, the former parish priest of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Ljubljana. The reason for the mobbing is also interesting - the refusal of the aforementioned Serbian Orthodox Church priest to remain silent about theft and corruption in the diocese for which the then Bishop PP was responsible a few years ago.

"Since they failed to stop the criminal proceedings before the court in Ljubljana, I began to suffer pressure to testify falsely during the trial, in favor of the person who had financially damaged the Serbian Orthodox Church. After I refused in writing, concrete persecution followed with the aim of preventing my testimony, including an attempt to have me physically removed from Slovenia. When that failed, Porfirije, the then Metropolitan of Zagreb, threatened me and forbade me from testifying," says the former parish priest of Lubarda and adds: "The proceedings were conducted on the basis of hundreds of pages of documentation. All of this evidence is important, but I would perhaps particularly highlight the fact that the priority of SPC officials was to conceal financial crime within the SPC, which is why they often had to openly demonstrate their intention to abuse me and my family."

That is why the field, and not just the mayor of NK, recognized Porfirije as the best solution for a patriarch of such a Serbian Orthodox Church. Who will at any moment, God willing, pardon Vučić, be ready to please, to support him, to protect him from criticism, at the cost that that critic, like the quoted Lubarda, is removed from the country, excommunicated from the church, and demonized by informers as a traitor to the Serbs and their world. How can we talk about corruption and theft in the Serbian Orthodox Church when it is at the very foundation of the state that is unfailingly led by their god Alexander. Or how can we prosecute pedophilia when we have more important things to do, to protect the flock from LGBT I'm not and same-sex marriages. Which is what one of God's, or AV, envoys, Milan K., recently spoke about in the field, that is, in Mandić's RS 2 Assembly, had. In Serbia and Montenegro, which ridicule and persecute members of the LGBT community, pedophilia is not a criminal act but a proof of humanity and heroism. That is why Kovačević is right - such a patriarch and such a church are the foundation of their unity and identity.

But not only is the hatter right than the mayor of Nikšić! And Mile is no worse. Or, he is right when he cries out at Vučji do to "gather around our Church, armed with the will, faith and character that will enable us to live our freedom, regardless of the system we find ourselves in". In fact, Dodik is wrong. The fraudster is spinning. Because how can Serbs ignore the "system in which they live", his and Vučić's, which is based on injustice, corruption, organized crime, shame and poverty. Dodik asks, and Porfirije blesses, that the humiliated and robbed people of Mile's entity turn a blind eye to the fact that 90 percent of that area lives on 5 thousand euros a year or less, and 10 percent, led by Dodik, on a million or ten! For a year. Depending on the number of tenders and highways.

But, let's ignore money, justice and dignity are more important than them. Dodik preaches, with the assistance of the finally convicted Perić, that the important kingdom is heavenly and not earthly, and that therefore the "system we live in" is not important. And in which Davor Dragičević lost his son David, without explanation or apology. Pointing out that the system that Mile created killed his son. That's called injustice, but Prle doesn't believe in tears.

Moreover, the Patriarch of Porphyry complements Miletus and adds to his "it is not the system we live in that matters", adding his own that "freedom is gained and preserved through harmony, loyalty and readiness for sacrifice", which amounts to the same thing. That is why for the Patriarch, the "canopy" is not a consequence of corruption and organized crime, but God's fate and misfortune, and the massacre in Ribnikar is not the result of hatred, violence and persecution in public space, but a planetary problem, inherent in all modern societies. In the same way, generously, Porphyry's god Vučić retaliates to his favorite Patriarch - the final verdict in Ljubljana is not an expression of a serious court process and hundreds of pages of evidence, but is a staged political ruckus, "an attack (by Slovenian Serbo-haters) on a pillar of Serbian society". That is why AV awards Porphyry with the "halo of a martyr". From him, not from God. There were few villas and garages in Dedinje.

Why are Šubara's memorials to the finally convicted Porfirio and the officially banned Dodik, an expected move? Because the Serbian Orthodox Church was indeed a pillar of the policy that in the past four decades has plunged the Serbian people from the European stage into the Balkan abyss and precipice. From which they will be able to get out for the next hundred years. In 1989, when communism officially fell, the Serbs were one of the most European and advanced nations of the so-called Eastern Bloc. Only to be led by "priests and cannons", by the policies of today's Vučić and Porfirio, they came to the back of Europe. The only question is whether their Serbia will be the last or the second to last to enter the EU. Or maybe never. If the two of them ask themselves.

The only place where Marko Šubara failed at the Vučedol memorial service was by skipping over Đukanović. What about Dodik and Perić, not even Milo's decorations. If the memorials are for Serbian unity, the Serbian world and the Serbian Orthodox Church, MĐ contributed more to that, from '87 to '97, than the aforementioned duo combined. Second, more importantly, if Dodik was put on the American blacklist for crime and corruption, if he was banned from politics in the entity and the state of BiH for the same reasons, then why would Milo's legacy of corruption and crime be an obstacle?! Or is it just a problem in ideology. By abandoning Porfiry's, or St. Sava's ideology, back in '97, Đukanović excluded himself from the awards and decorations of the Serbian Orthodox Church. It would be enough for him to go back to the factory settings, to say like Šubara or his boss Rajo, how do you know that his name is Sveti and his last name is Sava, and Porfiry would be the first to bless him and pin a medal on his chest. The Order of Saint Sava, for example, and not some mockery of Šubara's memorial.

What a caricature of priests and cannons. Led by a patriarch. What would Trump give to have a certain Prle at the head of the largest Christian church instead of Pope Leo. Or Infantino, it doesn't matter. After all, the Catholic Church is a serious institution. And not an ideological and political truncheon of a regime.
