Weep for me, said the Tu-95 bomber
There's a Serbian joke about how the Serbian ship of lunatics is the pride and joy of the Russian Navy.

The Hamas cheerleaders of Serbia
The Serbian political discourse on the entire spectrum continues with its anti-Western and revisionist hysteria by coming in support of Hamas and continuing to deny crimes committed by Serbian forces during the Yugoslav Wars.
