	Kosovo and Vidovdan After Six Hundred Years
		It is a fact that on Vidovdan, June 15, 1389, the Serbs, without help from a single European nation, defended on Kosovo Field not only the frontiers of their own territory and lives of their people, but, at the risk of losing their national independence, they also defended the interests and security of Christian Europe.
		Vidovdan alone has become a national holiday which has been observed through the centuries, and it is observed on this occasion, 600 years after the Battle of Kosovo.
		Vidovdan commemorations, which have been celebrated annually for centuries, are reconfirmations of both the Serbian ownership of Kosovo and of the Vidovdan-Kosovo ethics, which are the core of the Serbian national image and the essence of Serbian identity.

	The Role of St. Vitus' Day in Modern Serbian
		During the 19th century, Vidovdan was com-memorated among Serbs in the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, under the watchful eye of the respective authorities, sensitive to the outburst of Serbian national feelings.
		On Vidovdan, June 15th (by the old calendar) a solemn requiem to the Kosovo warriors was held in Krusevac, the ancient capital of Prince Lazar, and the foundation of the monument dedicated to the Kosovo martyrs was laid.
		Requiems of Vidovdan in Gracanica, both Monasteries of Ravanica in Resava and Srem, as well as the 2 Lazarica Churches in Krusevac and Dalmatia, were held in the presence of the representatives of the government and the army, the military, and national societies.

		One of Stojanovic thesis is that Kosovo and Vidovdan cannot be considered as something passed and vanished.

		His had was cut by Turks in Kosovo, and this year, on Vidovdan, his hand was cut by Serbian people and moved to Krusevac!” Three days later there was a reader who denied the issue on the division of remnants of Lazar body.

		The reason could be that his defenders are mainly recruited from the communist, leftist and antiglobalization circles.Miloševic is described not so much as a Serbian martyr bur as a martyr and a leader against Globalization and New Colonialism (the religious and extreme right oriented movements/sites use very often the expression "New World Order").
		The mythical discourse is merging with the communist stereotypes via Vidovdan epic songs, so the Hague is described as a "concentration camp for Serbs", biased and anti-Slavic.
		The part about the resistance of Serbian people uses the Vidovdan myth of Prince Lazar and Serbs as "heavenly nation" that choose to fight for their ideals (antiglobalization, antifascist) rather then "cash" (like the DOS traitors who extradited Miloševic because of the Donor Conference).

		Vidovdan is also the date Djindjich and his anti-Serb coalition decided to extradite Miloshevich to the Hague.
		Many have used Vidovdan (St. Vitus' Day) to make fun of Serbs who celebrate their "defeat." Historically, the result of the Kosovo battle between the Turks and the Serbs was a draw.
		Serbia had no interest in fighting one of the largest empires in Europe, especially in view of the effort and sacrifice of successfully kicking Turks out of Europe in the First Balkan War (1912), and then defeating her ally Bulgaria in the Second Balkan War (1913) that started with Bulgaria's unprovoked attack on Serbia.

		These Kosovo remnants are lodged in the midst of the remaining faithful of the Kosovo region.
		The lesson of Vidovdan (St. Vitus Day) for all of us is that eternal values must be placed before earthly ones, that spiritual force superior to the force of arms.
		The legacy of Vidovdan teaches us that the forces of darkness and evil are always defeated in the end and that those of light and virtue ultimately triumph, even when such victory may seem impossible.

	Swans Commentary: The 28th Day Of June: St Vitus Day, by Alma Hromic - aah029
		One of the most potent Vidovdans in history took place six hundred and thirteen years ago -- on Kosovo Polje, the Field of Blackbirds, that very battlefield which is so much a part of twenty first century wars of the region.
		In the second half of June 1999 -- note the date, we're approaching Vidovdan again, the date when Serbs are traditionally punished for being Serbs -- the monastery was dynamited, and completely destroyed.
		In further desecrations of Vidovdan, even more recently, the government of the sycophantic Zoran Djindjic sold Slobodan Milosevic for the traditional 30 pieces of silver (which, somehow, never quite materialized, despite all Djindjic's best intentions) to the kangaroo court in The Hague -- kidnapping and handing over Milosevic on June 28, 2001.

		The main celebration was traditionally held in Gracanica and at the adjacent site of Gazimestan (Kosovo and Metohija, Serbia) where the historical Kosovo battle took place 617 years ago, when a Christian army led by Serbian Tsar Lazar fought the invading Ottoman army of Sultan Murat.
		What Jerusalem is for the Jewish people, Kosovo and Metohija is for the Serbian people.” His Grace Artemije said that “entire Serbia is a shrine, and Kosovo is its altar,” and added that there could be no shrine without an altar, as there could be no Serbia without Kosovo.
		He reminded that for the last seven years Vidovdan is celebrated in difficult conditions in Kosovo and Metohija, in times when our nation is tormented and suffering.

		And it was betrayal: for many Serbs and fellow Christians fought as Turkish vassals, and Serb epics tell of treason that hobbled their knights at the decisive moment.
		And it was betrayal, as some joined the new state just to stab it in the back, and others desired it only for the sake of personal power.
		Since the failure doesn't seem to bother either of them, and since their behavior has consistently indicated a somewhat different agenda, in reality it appears the mission has accomplished everything it set out to do, and a few things besides.
