The Government of Ivo Sanader, a HDZ /Croatian Democratic Union/ government led by a man who actually won the elections by calling for a patriotic revolt against Ivica Račan’s government and by using the name of General Gotovina to do it, became the fiercest opponent of Gotovina and his ‘accomplices’.Thu, 05 Jan 2012 15:32:16 GMTThe Hague Is Wrong Beyond Any Reasonable Doubthttp://www.antegotovina.com/default.aspx?LID=1&clanak=5274A huge part of the Croatian public feels that the Tribunal’s verdict against the Croatian generals is unjust and unsustainable.

The April 15 conviction of two Croatian generals of crimes against humanity, for their part in an operation that saved tens of thousands of Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) from being massacred, has been followed by months of relative silence.Mon, 10 Oct 2011 11:18:32 GMTNenad Ivanković : The Warrior, english editionhttp://www.antegotovina.com/default.aspx?LID=1&clanak=5237Unfolding like a gripping novel, this book tells the life of Croatian Army General Ante Gotovina.
