  • 28. February - 1. March 2024. Serbia (Србија). Belgrade (Београд). Had some obligations in Belgrade, and so this time stayed at the 5-Star Saint Ten Hotel. This luxury boutique hotel has a place in history thanks to the building that houses it, a mansion designed by its former owner Stojan Veljković, a Mason who hosted many influential people, including Duško Popov, a triple-agent on which Ian Fleming based his James Bond character.
    And, while here, I might as well take you on a walk or two around the neighborhood.

    Thank you for your positive tone about us, the Serbs, and our capital . Sorry for the intervention, but Gavrilo Princip was a Serbian hero who had streamed into that assassination the Serbian 1000 years old resistance to the Vatican/Hubsburg/British (remember that Saxe Coburg Gota equals the Windsors) illegal attempts to annex the Serbian lands of Bosnia and Herzegovina, not "Yugoslavian" lands. In other words, "Yugoslavia" was a Western invention, a "Frankenstein" born in 1918. on Serbian undeniable and single handed victory in Balkans during the WW1, to the absolute dismay on the side of the Serbs, out of western disagreement with the outcome of the Othodox Serbian, Greek, Bulgarian and Romanian liberation in Balkan Wars from the weaning Turkish Empire, with which the Catholics had shared centuries of wonderful carnivorous cooperation against all of us, trading among them and the Turks our lands, history and culture in Balkans, Medditerranean and on the Adriatic Coast. Similarly to the French buying off the Greek and Serbian medieval shrines from the Turks in Jerusalem, or to the Habsburg/British creation of "Albania" in 1913. on just liberated Serbian lands, or to the Brits, who had expelled 1 000 000 of Greeks from Smyrna (Izmir, in occupational Turkish language) in 1920. to satisfy the Turks and have them compliant in order to keep the British dominance over the Bosphorus. A very old and filthy game, which seems to have reached its end, thank God!

      Also, as an American tax-payer, are you aware that you are actually sponsoring not only the NATO massacres in Ukraine and in Gaza, but also the unofficial NATO occupation of all of the Serbian lands, including Kosovo and Metochia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Macedonia? Do you know that the fifth floor of the Serbian Defence Ministry has been populated by the exclusively American officers since the bombing in 1999. and that in case I, as a Serbian citizen in my own Serbian capital, if I was taking the staircase up or down in that Ministry, would be ordered to take the elevator by the American punks, in order not to cross over the Goddamned fifth floor, which they consider their own??!! Now, enjoy that clown Bono's show about genocidal Serbs (in Kosovo and Srebrenica), the Russians and the Palestinians! We've been enjoying it since the unofficial NATO's expansion in Balkans and along the Adriatic Coast, thank you, and are glad that the issue seems to have hit back home, from where it had started long ago, with Albert Pyke and the rest.

    How on Earth was Cvetkovic "a Yugoslav, an ethnic Serb", while "Machek was a Croat"???!!! Why Cvetkovic can not simply be a Serb too, as Machek is a Croat???? Would it hurt that badly?! By the way, Machek is not a Croat family name either, but Czech, which implies that Macheks were brought to Croatia along with other 200 000 Czechs during the Austrian rule, to facilitate book keeping for the Empire in than prevealingly illiterate Croatia. And what do you mean by the "Croatian autonomous substate" in 1939??? The first time ever in history Croatia had become any sort of an official substate or state was 2 years later, and even that only from 1941. to 1945. as an Independant Nazi Republic of Croatia, responsible and never prosecuted for the 1 000 000 people's massacre, 99% Serbs, as is clearly documented in their 1941.-1945. preserved street posters to say at least, repeated without any remorse in 90-ies, when they were clearly instructed and backed by the CIA and NATO in snatching the whole Bosnian Coast, from Zadar to The Bay of Kotor, for the NATO's merit. Please check the map and judge yourself if the boarders as pictured can be autochtone, historical or defendable! They are the product of British intervention since 1939, after the Saxe Coburg Gota or than newly proclaimed Winsdors had cruised the Adriatic Coast line and had realised that it was a missing jewel in their crown, and that as such it shouldn't had been left to the Orthodoxes. Unfortunately for the collonial agenda, everything has its beginning and its end if it isn't authentic.

    You did not mention if your car is a rental car or a private car with foreign plates. If it is rental, dont worry, you will get the fine when you go to return it or rental company will call you on your contact number to tell you the news. The fine may come in a bit later by the time they process the database for your plates.
    There are 2 good things about the parking fines in Belgrade: if you try to avoid the ripoff hotel parking prices like you did, yes, you will pay much less if you park on the street. If you park your car at any parking spot in any of 3 zones and you dont pay for the parking, you will receive a "digital" fine or what they call it a day parking ticket and it is 1870 dinars (around US $17). But (second good thing) if you pay the fine (day ticket) within 8 days you will pay only the half the amount (US $8.50). One thing to be aware is if you get "the whole day parking ticket" in certain zone, you cannot move the car into different zone and park it there, as you will get another all day ticket for that respected zone. So yes, it is way cheaper except there is the risk the car is on the street overnight and depends of the location and the brand of the car there are some risks associated. But they will not take your car away as long as it is on the legal parking spot. Only cars parked outside of the parking area even if it is on the verge or completely on the footpath they risking of being towed away and then the fines are real and go up to a few hundreds of dollars. And for the privately owned cars with foreign plates, you may never get the fine (online) but you will be stopped at the border crossing when you try to leave the country with the same car.
    Nice video , showing some real life situations in winter time in Belgrade not seen too often as most tourist visit Belgrade in summer when everything looks so much better and quite different like most european countries do in summer. This hotel looks crap especially for the price. Not even the location can improve that. The only thing going for it is the history, but you can read about its history and see the photos and videos (like yours) of insides after you pass this hotel and find a much better room in hotel with much better view and better location for less money. Since it doesn't have a pool even some AirBnBs are better for less.

    Mosha is Moshe, a sephardim with partizans. He and Lola Ribar represented sephard stream in partizans while Pavle Jurisch "Djurisic" represented the same with chetnics. It goes without saying that ustashe leaders were all sephards, starting with their founder Stark or "Starcevic". Apparently, this Stark was a teacher and he applied for a teaching job in Belgrade. A museum still has his job application written in Cyrillic alphabet. He got rejected and that's how his hatred against Serbs started. Around 1900 Vatican sephards started preparing croats for cutting throats of Serbs and this is the result: ua-cam.com/video/eaiCt_krin8/v-deo.html. 14 colonels of ustashe movement were all sephards.

      The British prevented the Italian Venezia division from giving their weapons to the Chetniks. The Venezia Division had surrendered to the Chetniks, in late summer 1944, and the Chetniks only wanted their weapons (as they were never given much, purposely, by the 'Allies' who instead lavished it on the Partisans), but a British agent halted that and said he needed to contact headquarters. Then he talked them into joining the Partisans. So there were thousands of Italians who joined the Partisans for their invasion and assault on Serbia in fall 1944.

    Isus je jedini put do neba. Takva konkretna izjava može zbuniti, iznenaditi, pa čak i uvrijediti, ali je ipak istinita. Biblija uči da ne postoji drugi put spasenja kroz Isusa Krista. Sam Isus kaže u Jovanu 14:6: "Ja sam put, istina i život." Niko ne može doći Ocu osim kroz mene.” Ovo nije put kao na jedan od mnogih načina, osim preko Isusa, do Boga Oca.
    Isus je jedini put do neba iz više razloga. Isusa je "Bog izabrao" da bude Spasitelj (1. Petrova 2:4). Isus je jedini koji je sišao s neba i tamo se vratio (Jovan 3:13). On je jedini koji je živio savršenim ljudskim životom (Jevrejima 4:15). On je jedina žrtva za greh (1. Jovanova 2:2; Jevrejima 10:26). On je jedini držao Zakon i Proroke (Matej 5:17). On je jedini koji je zauvijek pobijedio smrt (Jevrejima 2:14-15). On je jedini posrednik između Boga i čoveka (1. Timoteju 2:5). On je jedino ljudsko biće "proslavljeno" od Boga. . . na najvišem mestu“ (Filipljanima 2:9).
    Na mnogim mjestima, osim u Jovanu 14:6, Isus je govorio o sebi kao o jedinom putu do neba. Predstavio se kao predmet vjere u Mateju 7:21-27. Rekao je da su njegove riječi život (Jovan 6:63). Obećao je da će oni koji vjeruju u njega imati vječni život (Jovan 3:14-15). To su vrata ovaca (Jovan 10:7); hljeb života (Jovan 6:35); i vaskrsenje (Jovan 11:25). Niko drugi ne može s pravom tražiti ove titule.
    Apostolsko propovijedanje se fokusiralo na smrt i uskrsnuće Gospodina Isusa. Obraćajući se Sinedrionu, Petar je otvoreno proglasio Isusa kao jedini put do neba: "Nema spasenja ni u kome drugome, jer nema drugog imena pod nebom koje je dano ljudima kojim bismo trebali spasiti" (Djela 4,12). ). . Govoreći u antiohijskoj sinagogi, Pavle je naglasio da je Isus bio Spasitelj: "Želim da znate da vam je oproštenje greha postalo poznato kroz Isusa. Kroz njega su svi koji veruju oslobođeni svakog greha" (Dela 13,38). -39) Ivan, u pismu crkvi općenito, navodi da je naše oproštenje navodi Kristovo ime kao temelj: „Draga djeco, pišem vam jer su vam grijesi oprošteni u ime Njegovo“ (1. Ivanova 2,12) ). ... Niko ne može oprostiti grijeh osim Isusa.
    Večni život na nebu moguć je samo kroz Hrista. Isus se molio: „A ovo je život vječni: da poznaju tebe, jedinog istinitog Boga, i koga si poslao Isusa Krista“ (Jovan 17:3). Da bismo primili Božji besplatni dar spasenja, moramo gledati samo na Isusa i Isusa. Moramo vjerovati u Isusovu smrt i uskrsnuće na križu kao plaćanje za naš grijeh. „Ova pravednost od Boga dolazi svima koji vjeruju u Isusa Krista“ (Rimljanima 3:22).
    U nekom trenutku Isusove službe, većina gomile mu je okrenula leđa i otišla, nadajući se da će pronaći drugog spasitelja. Isus je rekao Dvanaestorici: "Želite li i vi da idete?" pitan. (Jovan 6:67, NIV). Petrov odgovor je potpuno tačan: „Gospode, kome da idemo? Ti imaš riječi vječnog života, a mi smo vjerovali i razumjeli da si ti Svetac Božji” (Jovan 6:68-69, NIV). Svi dijelimo Petrovo uvjerenje da je vječni život samo u Isusu Kristu.
    Jeste li se odlučili za Krista zbog ovoga što ste pročitali ovdje?
