  1. For all the Muslims who love Russia: Mladic was responsible for the massacres of 18000 Bosnian Muslims . And Russia actively protected him from prosecution, called his trial biased ,and may have even given him shelter in Russia itself.

  2. I’m Serbian, but I have completely turned my back on the country. I haven’t returned to Serbia since the war began, and I never intend to go back. With Ratko Mladić now dead, I still feel nothing but disgust for the role he played in the horrors of the war. I’m simply done with my own people.

  3. Education is often measured by how much information a person can remember, but learning involves far more than simply collecting facts. Plutarch captured this idea with the words, “The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.” The quote suggests that true education should encourage curiosity, independent thinking and a desire to keep learning rather than treating the mind as an empty container that needs to be packed with information. Knowledge becomes more meaningful when it inspires people to ask questions, explore ideas and develop their own understanding. The ancient Greek thinker’s observation remains relevant in classrooms and workplaces today, particularly as people have access to more information than ever before.

  4. What About butchers of Baghdad who gundown 15 innocent civilians in abroad day light? (Wagner's). What about butchers of Gaza children's? 😢😢😢😅😅😅😊😊😊😊😮😢😢 Western hypocrisy is another level 😢😢😂
