Svi srpski vladari pre Stefana Nemanje su bili katolici. I on je tek pod stare dane promenio veru. Inace, sve do pada Carigrada 1453 g, svi Nemanjici su ratovali protiv Vizantije zajedno sa katolicima Mlecanima i drugima. To se naravno krije, jer ne ide u prilog nacionalistima.

8. lipnja 1936. godine, Dubrovnik je potresla nesvakidašnja, tragična nesreća – pad aviona u samom srcu starog grada, na raskrižju Prijekog i Žudioske ulice Radilo se o mladom pilotu koji je iz zraka pokušao osvojiti srce mlade učiteljice. Navodno je, u želji da impresionira simpatiju koju je upoznao na plesu, iz aviona bacio vrećicu s ljubavnim pismom prema hotelu Gradac na Pilama, gdje je djevojka tada odsjedala.  Nažalost, u tom pokušaju izgubio je kontrolu nad letjelicom, dijelom zahvatio tvrđavu Minčetu i srušio se među kamene kuće na Prijekome. Posljedice su bile kobne – smrtno je stradalo sedmero prolaznika, te pilot i kopilot aviona.

Armenia's parliamentary elections gave Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s Civil Contract party an absolute majority in parliament. Moscow has responded with fresh economic pressure, including bans on imports of flowers, wine, mineral water and produce, plus stricter checks at the Upper Lars border crossing. The Kremlin aims to punish Yerevan’s EU outreach and diversification efforts, with threats to end duty free energy supplies and demands for an EAEU exit referendum.

Good morning to all the NAFO supporters, Ukraine supporters, volunteers, donors, journalists, and everyone around the world who still believes this fight matters. As I sit here drinking my coffee, roughly 50 or less kilometers from the front, I want to say something that has been bothering me for a long time. I've spent the last four years in Ukraine. I've lived through missile strikes, air raids, power outages, and all the uncertainty that comes with living in a country at war. I've worked alongside Ukrainian soldiers, commanders, volunteers, and civilians. My job is not to be a frontline assault soldier. My job is to train Ukrainian soldiers and leaders so they have a better chance of surviving, accomplishing their mission, and returning home to their families. That's what I've done for four years, and that's what I'll continue to do. What I find amazing is that some of the loudest voices talking shit online have never spent a single day here. They've never sat in a shelter during an air raid. They've never watched a family say goodbye to a soldier heading to the front. They've never spent time with wounded soldiers in a hospital. They've never had a cruise missile hit their city. Yet somehow they think they're the authority on everything. Now, let me be clear. Being in Ukraine does not automatically make someone right, and being outside Ukraine does not automatically make someone wrong. That's not the point. The point is respect. If someone has dedicated years of their life to helping this country, whether they're Ukrainian or foreign, military or civilian, volunteer or aid worker, maybe show a little damn respect before you start running your mouth. What really gets old is these ridiculous popularity contests on social media. Some people spend more time picking teams and defending internet personalities than they do actually helping Ukraine. If you like somebody, great. If you don't like somebody, fine. But this constant mentality of "if my friend doesn't like that person, then I have to attack them too" is childish bullshit. This isn't high school. This isn't a fan club. This isn't some competition to see who gets the most likes, followers, or attention. There are people in this country losing their homes, their limbs, their families, and their lives. While that's happening, some people online are acting like they're competing for a social media championship belt. Enough. If someone is legitimately helping Ukraine, stop looking for reasons to destroy them because of personal grudges, gossip, social circles, or internet drama. You don't have to agree with everybody. You don't have to be friends with everybody. Hell, you don't even have to like everybody. But if they're genuinely helping Ukraine, maybe spend less time attacking them and more time focusing on the people actually trying to destroy this country. Because the enemy isn't the volunteer delivering aid. The enemy isn't the journalist reporting from Ukraine. The enemy isn't the donor raising money. The enemy isn't the advisor training soldiers. The enemy isn't the person spending their free time advocating for Ukraine online. The enemy is Russia's war against Ukraine. Somewhere along the way, a lot of people forgot that. The vast majority of Ukrainian soldiers are not on X arguing about internet drama. They're busy defending their country. They're sitting in trenches, manning positions, flying drones, and preparing for another day of war. When they do hear about this nonsense, most of them think it's ridiculous. And honestly, so do I. After four years here, I've learned one thing above all else: Ukraine does not need more division. It needs more unity. It needs people willing to work together, even when they disagree. It needs people focused on the mission, not on their egos. So maybe it's time we all start acting like adults, stop the petty bullshit, and remember why we're here in the first place. Слава Україні. Героям слава. 🇺🇦

4. lipnja 1899. U Karlovcu je rođen Ivo Protulipac, odvjetnik i katolički aktivist, predsjednik Velikog križarskog bratstva za vrijeme Kraljevine Jugoslavije. Ubijen od strane UDBA-e u siječnju 1946. u Trstu, jer je pomagao hrvatskim izbjeglicama da prijeđu granicu u Italiju.

More than 500 personnel of the State Emergency Service have been involved in dealing with the aftermath of Russia’s overnight attack on our cities and communities. The main strike was on Kyiv, where dozens of residential buildings and other purely civilian infrastructure were damaged again. Tragically, four people have been reported killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. At this moment, 38 people are in hospitals in the capital, and all of them are receiving the necessary care. In Dnipro, a search and rescue operation is ongoing at the site of a four-story apartment building. Part of the building was essentially demolished. Nine people were killed in this attack, including a child. Thirty-five people were injured in the city. The fate of six more people remains unknown. The search for them will continue for as long as necessary. The Russians also struck energy facilities in the Kharkiv region and critical infrastructure in Kharkiv. Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, and Khmelnytskyi regions also came under attack. In total, overnight Russia launched 656 attack drones and 73 missiles of various types at our people – ballistic, cruise, and anti-ship missiles. A large-scale attack and an absolutely clear statement from Russia: if Ukraine is not protected from ballistic and other missile strikes, these attacks will continue. Europe needs its own anti-ballistic defense so that this war can finally be brought to an end. And assistance from the United States in supplying missiles for Patriot systems is absolutely necessary. We are counting on the support of our partners and on effective responses to today’s attack. And I thank all Ukrainian men and women for not ignoring air raid alerts. Glory to Ukraine!

Rusija je je juče u razmenu za svoje zarobljene vojnike ponudila ukrajinsku decu koju su oteli sa okupiranih teritorija. DECU !!! Ponavljajte ovo dovoljno puta, Putinofili, dok vam ta nakaza kao pantljičara ne ispadne iz dupeta.

Be careful when buying bananas! 👇 ‼️ We're sure you've noticed stickers on bananas at least once in your life. But have you ever wondered what they mean? 👉 If they have a 4-digit code on them that starts with the numbers 3 or 4, it means that the product was grown using the principle of intensive agriculture, which also implies the use of fertilizers and pesticides. 👉 If a product has a 5-digit code that starts with the number 9, it means that the product was grown in a conventional way, as it has been done for thousands of years. This method is now called “organic”, in other words without the use of pesticides and fertilizers. 👉 If a product has a 5-digit code that starts with the number 8, it means that the product is genetically modified or commonly known as GMO.

On this day in 1943, a thousand starving Japanese soldiers ran screaming out of the fog on a frozen Alaskan island, bayonets lashed to broken sticks, to die. The island was Attu, the westernmost tip of the Aleutian chain. It was the only piece of North American soil the Japanese had captured in the entire war. The Americans had been trying to take it back for nineteen days in the worst conditions either side had ever fought in: freezing rain, knee-deep mud, fog so thick a man could not see his own rifle, and tundra that swallowed boots and never gave them back. The Japanese garrison was down to 800 men. They had no food left. No medicine. No way off the island. They had been told no rescue was coming. Their commander was Colonel Yasuyo Yamasaki, a 51 year old career officer who had been on Attu for less than three weeks. On the night of May 28, he gathered every man who could still hold a weapon. This included his wounded. Those who could not walk were shot or given grenades. Those who could limp were given anything that could stab. Some had bayonets. Some had bayonets lashed to ski poles. Some had bayonets lashed to tent stakes. Then he led them straight at the American line in the dark. It was the largest banzai charge of the Pacific war up to that point. They came through a gap in the fog at 3:30 AM, completely silent until they were inside the American positions. Then they screamed. They overran the front line in minutes. They overran the artillery batteries behind it. They reached the field hospital and butchered the wounded in their cots. They got within a hundred yards of the American command post before they were finally stopped by a scratch force of engineers, cooks, military police and walking wounded who fired at point blank range until their rifles were too hot to hold. When the sun came up, the snow on the slope was carpeted with bodies. The Americans counted 500 dead Japanese on the ground in front of them. Then they began finding the rest. Almost all of the remaining defenders had killed themselves with grenades held against their chests. American soldiers walking the field afterward described finding small groups of three or four men curled in a circle, their bodies folded around the same grenade. Out of a Japanese garrison of nearly 2,900, the Americans took 28 prisoners. It was the second highest American casualty rate of any battle in the Pacific war, after Iwo Jima. Almost no one in the United States has heard of it.

Before Brexit, there were about 300K net migrants a year, mostly from the EU. After Brexit, immigration shot up to 900K, and EU migration was negative. It’s amazing how stupid Brexit was from every possible perspective. Populism is a low IQ movement.

Dokumentarni film 'Srpski epovi' Pawła Pawlikowskog iz 1992. zabilježio je sramotnu scenu kada ruski pisac i fašist Eduard Limonov, ratni turist bez trunke savjesti, s osmijehom prihvaća poziv Radovana Karadžića da puca iz mitraljeza na opkoljeno Sarajevo. Taj kadar nije samo filmski zapis, nego dokaz monstruozne ravnodušnosti prema patnji civila... Sarajevo je simbol otpora i života, a oni koji su ga gađali, simbol beščašća i moralnog sunovrata.

Richard Haass just made a remarkable argument on CNN: That America now has worse relations with Canada than China because the U.S. has spent years attacking allies with tariffs and political fights instead of building a united front against Beijing. And honestly, that gets to the heart of one of the biggest foreign policy debates happening right now: America’s greatest strategic advantage was never just military power. It was the alliance network. Dozens of countries aligned economically, militarily, and diplomatically around U.S. leadership. The argument Haass is making is that Washington has started weakening that advantage itself. He is correct.

Suzana Jović iz Prokuplja je uhapšena u Nišu pre 2 sata zbog učešća na protestu u Beogradu 23.05.2026. Majka ne zna gde je, advokatu je rečeno da se ona ne nalazi u Nišu. Nekoliko crnih džipova Bg tablica su došli po nju na posao i odvezli je u nepoznatom pravcu. Radi se devojci sa slike. Molim za bilo kakvu informaciju i RT

Prepuštamo zaboravu možda jedan od najgorih barbarskih činova na hrvatskom tlu početkom 19. stoljeća. Krajem svibnja i početkom lipnja 1806. rusko-crnogorsko-vlaške(srpske) formacije izvršile su tada najveću opsadu Dubrovnika. Nakon Požunskoga mira 1805. godine, Republika se nalazila u bezizlaznoj situaciji. Cijeli prostor istočnog Jadrana Napoleonova je Francuska anektirala Talijanskom kraljevstvu, a ulaskom francuskih trupa u Dubrovnik pod predvodništvom generala Lauristona, započinje postupno ukidanje institucija vlasti Republike do donošenja konačnog dekreta 31. siječnja 1808. godine. Prije toga, željni izlaska na more, teritorijalnih pretenzija nad hrvatskim priobaljem, rusko-crnogorsko-vlaške trupe iz Boke kotorske i istočne Hercegovine punih 65 dana držali su Dubrovnik pod stalnom opsadom. Sela u Župi dubrovačkoj i Konavlima doslovce su sravljena sa zemljnom. Na grad je ispaljeno između 1.800 i 3.000 topovskih kugli, poginulo je 60 osoba, ali postoje pretpostavke da je navedeni broj i veći. Uništeno je 60 ljetnikovaca, mnoge su kuće spaljene, opljačkane, žene silovane, muškarci ritualno ubijani. Opsada je okončana intervencijom vojnih postrojbi generala Molitora i potpisivanjem mira u Tilzitu 1807. godine. Bila je to, prema knjizi Vesne Čučić, posljednja kriza Dubrovačke Republike. Ne zaboravimo ovaj barbarski čin, jer se na gotovo identičan način, nažalost i još brutalnijim postupcima, kretala srpsko-četnička agresija na Dubrovnik 1991. godine. Nije im bilo prvi put.

I’m currently in Lofoten, Norway. I’ve never been anywhere like this before. It’s the most bizarre place I’ve ever been. For one, during the summer the sun does not set. 24 hours of daylight every day. The locals call it the Midnight Sun. It’s currently 12 AM and people are still hiking. Kids are still playing outside. After five days of consistent daylight I’m in a euphoric, trance-like dream state. Everyone should experience this at least once.

Not enough people are talking about this. A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there. But the story of how he got it is even worse. County staff told commissioners that rejecting the name change would put state transportation funding at risk. DeSantis has already removed state attorneys and school board members who dared to cross him. That is the reality the Democratic commissioner who cast the deciding vote was living in when she made her choice: hand Donald Trump control of a public airport or watch Florida Republicans strip funding from the very people she was elected to represent. That is absolutely insane. Florida Republicans handed Trump a money machine and called it a naming rights deal, and the people of Palm Beach County never got a say in any of it. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

Soyuz 11: The Only Humans Who Ever Died in the Vacuum of SpaceIn the summer of 1971, three Soviet cosmonauts—Georgy Dobrovolsky, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev—achieved what no one had done before. They became the first crew to dock with and live aboard a space station: the pioneering Salyut 1. For 22 days they worked, ate, slept, and made history in the harsh silence of orbit.Then came the journey home.The Soyuz 11 spacecraft performed a picture-perfect re-entry. Its parachute bloomed against the clear Kazakh sky, and the capsule touched down gently on the steppe. From the outside, everything looked exactly as it should. But when the recovery teams pried open the hatch, they froze in horror.All three men were still strapped in their seats—dead.Their faces were covered in dark, bruised patches. Blood trickled from their noses and ears. There was no pulse, no breath, no sign of life. The silence inside the capsule was absolute.The investigation that followed revealed one of the most haunting tragedies in spaceflight history.At 168 kilometers above Earth—just as the descent module separated from the service module—a critical breathing ventilation valve was jolted open with explosive force. In seconds, the capsule’s atmosphere vanished into the void. The men were suddenly exposed to the raw vacuum of space.The air was ripped from their lungs in an instant. They lost consciousness within 10–15 seconds. Viktor Patsayev fought longest—he was seen reaching desperately for the valve, trying to crank it shut by hand. He never finished the turn. The wheel stopped halfway.They had no spacesuits. No warning. No chance.To this day, Georgy Dobrovolsky, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev remain the only human beings to have died in the vacuum of outer space.
