"Utterly false. Tudjman was a great man, a great Roman Catholic, and a hero."

Are you serious?

Do you think that thanking God that your wife is neither Serb nor Jew is what makes a great Roman Catholic and "a hero?

I would think ministering to the poor, the dejected, and being humiliated for it by the world for it would be a much closer model to "a Roman Catholic hero" -- and that far better describes Handke than Tudjman.

But then again, what do I know? I am only the "heretic" that Tudjman thanked God that his wife wasn't!

When he said that "Thank God my wife was neither a Serb nor a Jew" he meant that he was neither a communist nor a fascist because Tito had a Serbian wife and Pavelic had a Jewish wife.

And now you know the context of his statement.
