God bless his soul. He is a man that was a professional and believed in his work and his country.

A great number of Serbs will disagree with this but I believe he did his work professionaly.

I believe that his only crime was that he was a member of the Serbian nation.

I'm not registered to post (and I can't speak their language), so maybe one of you could post this for me:

Why are the best men always the ones shot dead?

I hate to be cruel, but there is a *reason* that Serbia, which was bombed by France/Germany/U.S./UK in 1999 without UN approval, is not complaining to every Western reporter with a pen, a laptop, or a TV camera about the "double-standard" for bombing Iraq today, and more than likely that reason died with the assassins' bullets today...

I cannot find any Serbian refugees in my town who even care if he is dead...they say he was "BIG MAFIA".

I talked to several today....they say he played with the wrong crowd.

I know hundreds of Serbian refugees right her ein the USA.... never heard one indicate ANY thing good about him.... they like Kostunica, though.

The Zemun gang is to believed to be the same gang that Arkan and Seselj are a member of.

I just hope he didn't die in vain. Most Serbs in Serbia liked the man, most Serbs in diaspora have no clue what is happening inside Serbia.

I hope that with the state of emergency they will clean up Serbia of these gangs....

Most Serbs in Serbia liked the man

you must be joking............Djinidc never was able to garner more than 5% support in any vote or poll.........The only way he even became PM was hiding behind VK's good name and using $100 million of Clinton-Albright money to finance the 2000 DOS campaign........

Djindic was so unpopular that he had to usurp the rule of law, for example
He kicked out MP's who diagreed with him in Parliment and simply substituted his own party hacks
He refused to abide by Supreme Court Decisions
He fired independent Judges without the slightest shred of adhering to constituional principles. Anti-SPS Judiciary called Djindic "worse than Milosevic"
He delayed the Privatization of 3 cement companies for pure political reasons. The companies were sold to the same buyers as before, but for a few million less.

Djindic's undemocratic behaviour made him unpopular throughout the country. That is why despite $100 million in Clinton loot, Djindic was never able to get elected on his own.

Prior to the $100 million in Clinton cash, Djindic was a obscure Marxist-Leninist Philospher whose "political party" never got more than 1% support at the polls.

In short, Djindic was nothing more than gadfly. Without Clinton's $100 million, Djindic would have remained sitting all by himself behind a shabby desk in a tiny office barely able to pay his "political party" phone bills.

Djindic's murder ( no doubt by his erstwhile financial backers ) is a grave tragedy.

Well to say it in his words. He did that which was necesarry, not because he liked it, but because it had to happen. Most Serbs respected him for that, as is seen now on our tv stations.

Yes the US gave money. Thank God they did, and we are glad about it that our old allies didn't just leave us to rot away.

As for the rest, we will see a man hunt now has been started more then 400 suspects. Lets round them up and clean it up...
