Yugoslavia Communism

This article is about the influence of the Yugoslav Communist party on Croatian society. The party was the main driving force in all social matters within the former Yugoslavia. Its Stalinist policies from the 1940s to the 1960s and authoritarian rule have been mostly ignored in the Western media. There needs to be an historical reassessment. For example here is a statement made by Aleksandar Rankovic, the Interior Minister and the head of the military and secret police of Yugoslavia at a Belgrade Assembly (meeting):

“	Through our prisons has passed between 1945 and 1951, 3 777 776 prisoners, while we killed 586 000 enemies of the people. Taken from Politika, Belgrade/1 February 1951 (p.1) ^[1]	„

Another example is the "Commission on Concealed Mass Graves in Slovenia". The commission's finding was that there are 100 000 victims in 581 mass graves within Slovenia a former republic of Yugoslavia. According to the Reports and Proceedings of the European Public Hearing on “Crimes Committed by Totalitarian Regimes" , the killings were committed by the Yugoslav Paritsian Army in 1945 and 1946. ^[2]^[3] The Communists of Yugoslavia were the main organisers of a large scale execution of POWs and people who were guilty by association only and never bought to trial. Documents show that many of these people were refugees and amongst them were large numbers of women and children.^[4] -See below-

Note A. Vladimir Geiger of the Croatian Institute for History:

“	The list of German victims includes 26,000 women and 5,800 children who died in Yugoslav Camps- Geiger said.^[5]	„

Ethnic cleansing of Germans ^[6]^[7]^[8] and Italians (Foibe massacres),^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]^[13] were carried out in Yugoslavia. Along the Dalmatian coast Italian (i.e Zadar) was spoken for a millennium, ^[14]^[15]^[16]^[17]^[18]^[19] this was no longer the case after 1945/46.

Post Berlin Wall and the former Communist Yugoslavia

After the fall of the Berlin Wall, a lot of factual evidence has emerged that indicate the former Communist Yugoslavia was responsible for executing mass murders, arrests and torture. Most media have turned a blind eye to these tragic issues. Very little has been reported about these unearthed historic events. One event worth mentioning is Ian Cuthbertson's review of the documentary called Tito's Ghosts in the Australian newspaper The Australian called “Balkans hero with a Bloodthirsty Streak” (September 13, 2008). ^[20]

Communist Party of Yugoslavia pursued a revolutionary policy that was at odds with many of it's peoples, it's Yugoslav Communist utopia only happened unless you belong to the communist elite. The party of Yugoslavia did raise the standard of living in the 1960s and 1970s and this was achieved through Western investment which turn out to be it's weakness. Economic problems started with the inflation crisis in 1978 which was mainly due to Communist mismanagement (it was down hill from there onwards) and then eventually civil war. It is very interesting to note that Titostalgia within Croatia is still very strong even though Josip Broz Tito and his fellow Communists organised the Way of the Cross (death marches) massacres, Bleiburg and Foibe massacres and ethnic cleansing of Germans and Italian population of the former Yugoslavia.
