Blood Soaked Soil - Chapter "Croatia:A Country Kept Apart"


Listen Later

If something was forbidden, you could be arrested. It was forbidden to

listen to foreign news.
I remember my father would go into the bathroom every morning with a
small radio and listen to The Voice of America.
He would listen under a blanket in the bathtub secretly and discretely
so that not even the neighbors could hear him.
He told me that if I said anything, he would kill me.
You would hear every day about the heroes of the communist revolution –
Stalin, Lenin, Marx and Engels. They were all compulsory parts of our
education.
I was taught how to use a rifle from the age of ten. I had a carbine
M-48 calibre 7.9mm.
They place it in your hands, and you are being educated on how to defend your country.
As kids living under communism rule, we believed we were invincible.
Once you had an understanding of democracy, you found this to be a very weak society.
