There is no information yet about who did this, but it is noteworthy that the church was just repaired. “The subject peoples … are forbidden to build new churches.” (Reliance of the Traveller, o11.5). Islamic law also forbids Christians to repair existing churches. That this was a jihad attack cannot be ruled out.
“Bosnia: Recently repaired Orthodox church set on fire,” b92.net, June 25, 2018:
Unknown perpetrators have set a Serbian Orthodox church on fire in the town of Visoko, in the Croat-Muslim entity (FBiH) of Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Sarajevo-based website klix.ba is reporting that the incident happened in the night between Saturday and Sunday, and that “a majority of objects” inside the Church of the Nativity of the Theotokos – including icons and holy books – has been destroyed, along with a portion of the roof.
A local website in Visoki said that the main part of the altar has also been “broken.”…
Klix.ba noted in its report that this church was previously repaired over a period of two years, to be consecrated in September 2017.

Of course the KLA islamists got the support of their US and Nato buddies! It is really incredible that from Cyprus to Afghanistan to Bosnia, Kosovo, Libya, Egypt, Syria and Yemen, US and its Western allies are always and consistently on the side of the islamist jihadists. What does that tell you about the US and the West???

US and Nato sided with jihadists in the Balkans, bombed Christian Serbs and created two islamic states (Bosnia & Kosovo) in Eastern Europe and since then, hundreds of Orthodox churches and monasteries were destroyed in Metohija, Serbia by the very islamic jihadists that America and Nato supported and still supporting. See some the Orthodox churches and monasteries destroyed by the US-allied islamic jihadists in Metohija:

As an aside – furthermore – it’s interesting how FIFA let off two Swiss-Kosovan footballers with a risible fine, each, for celebrating both their goals in the World Cup with ‘expressions of Kosovan supremacism.’ FIFA prohibits political statements and celebrations, yet it’s okay if you’re a Muslim Kosovan, apparently. Not only that – the game was against Serbia!

Save Europe says
Yes indeed. Even Al-BBC noticed that during the game, would you believe !
LB says
Absolutely! I watched the game and was mad as hell. There were several highly questionable fouls in offence when Serbia had the ball too close to Swiss goal. Not to mention that one time when Mitrovic was taken down (American football style) in the penalty area by two Swiss players at the same time, and the ref did not called foul. It was later revealed that the people from the VAR room called the ref in to review the penalty, but he chose to ignore them.
It’s worth mentioning that the referee is German. Why? Because half of Swiss population are Germans with dual citizenship, and because they lost two world wars to Serbs. But it seems karma was indeed a bitch, because the Germans got eliminated by South Korea — a team who was going to drop out regardless of whether they won or lost.
The funniest thing of all is that Albanian PM Edi Rama opened a donation account where Albanians Albania and Kosovo would donate money for fined “Swiss” players, and it was filled nearly instantly.
Save Europe says
Totally agree LB. Additionally – and I have no understanding as to why – a Swiss supporters Group opened up a page to gather money to pay the fines, also. I was in incredulity, as Kosovan politics should be of zero interest to Swiss people, but not only that – the fines were so low, it would be like you or I being fined one pound or one dollar, when one considers what both Shaqiri and Xhaka are paid per week – I believe 80,000 and 90,000 pounds pw, respectively, by their clubs Stoke City and Arsenal. I also don’t understand why a Swiss player with no Balkans ties, like Stephane Lichsteiner would also wish to celebrate in the same way, other than to offend the Serbian fans. When Nicolas Anelka made anti-Semitic gestures, whilst playing in England, he received game bans.
Alien Republican says
It’s been a good match and as a Swiss I really enjoyed the way our players celebrated their goals. Nothing wrong with it, I have seen ethnic Albanians doing the gesture out of joy withouth any Serbs around to taunt.
LB says
Alien Republican, what you said is the definition of cuckery. “I have no problem with my countrymen publicly showing their allegiance to another country, in fact I think it’s great and I enjoy it, good for them!” That’s like saying “I have no problem with my wife seeing other men, in fact I quite enjoy it, you go girl!” It has nothing to do with Serbia or trying to provoke Serbs (although it certainly plays a part as well; they flied a drone with the Great Albania flag during a match with Serbia in Belgrade and Serbia got the bigger fine for reacting to it, look it up).
Let me ask you this, if Albania and Switzerland went to war, who do you think those players would side with? Same with millions of Turks in Germany, for example, as well as any muslim in a non-muslim country. They DID NOT, and WILL NOT integrate! Not them, their children, or their children’s children. The only reason those people are in Switzerland is because they have a considerably much better life there, just like how “refugees” are flocking into Europe en masse to get that free juicy welfare money (that and to wage jihad from the inside of the enemy).
Alien Republican says
Initially I wanted reply down to your levell but just putting in quotes what is not mine show how your two little neurons must suffer in the great vast space in your skull.
The fact that your bring the analogy with the unfaithful wife tells me that you are not far from thinking like a muslim – you are an orthodox christian and their bigotry and lack of insight never fails to astound me. Not since I first read about byantine history. However, I assure that don’t belong to does who are quick to blame the Serbs, a fact that caused some noticeable discomfort to an “croatian muslim”. I changed my views although admittedly late.
What would happen if Albania and Switzerland went to war ? That would strain the loyalty of each Swiss with Albanian ties terribly as it would strain every Swiss of jewish faith in a moronic scenario of a war between Switzerland and Israel.
You cannot compare Ablaniasn to Turks. I know both first hand. You cannot compare to “Turkish” community in Switzerland with that one in Germany and Erdogan did not score in the election in Switzerland.
Multicultualism is real here and not a left-winged idea but the very solid, CONSERVATIVE idea of being a nation defined my many cultures but the unifiying will of living together. “E pluribus unum”.

My bet is on Switzerland becoming Word Champion. Seems very unlikely but I betted on Trump long before the final results as well.

You are right about the EU/US military engagement against Serbia and their collusion with jihadists.
But look at the bigger picture! During the first yougoslavian war (1991-1995) the Serbian army had made important inroads into Bosnia-Herzegowina and even Croatia. Serbia was about to win the war, and if it had been the winner, large parts of ex-Yougoslavia would have been under its control. But that must never happen. Why? Very simple. Historically, Serbia has always been an ally of Russia. A strong Serbia would have meant that Russia could have had a powerful influence on South-East Europe – militarily as well as economically. To prevent this, a propaganda war was launched , Serbia was demonized, its leaders were vilyfied,, false accusations were levelled against the Serbian Nation, employing bogus human rights rhetoric. And when the war started for real, the jihadists who were funded by the US and trained by US military were unleashed on Serbia.
But hasn’t it always been a maxim of US foreign policy to use a scoundrel if they wanted to hunt down another one whom they supposed to be a scoundrel. This has been true for WWII when they used the roguish Staline against the vile Hitler, it applies to the Allende-putsch in 1973 when the bloodthirsty Pinochet came to power with the aid of the CIA and American funds, and it happens still today when the US is using Islamic jihadists against Russia or sunnite jihadists against shi’ite jihadists. Using a scoundrel ( provided that he is “your scoundrel”) to get another scoundrel ( who is not “your” scoundrel) tracked down is morally highly questionable and the the outcome is often different from what you have wished for, but some people think that “Realpolitik” has to be this way.

Exactly put! Thank you! Before US and Nato invade and bomb sovereign countries
there is always a few years of demonization and false accusations on that country’s leadership and this is done for the consumption of the pliant citizenry of the West after that, they finally go in all out for the kill! This was the case in Iraq, in Serbia, in Libya and now in Syria.
Thanks again!

While it’s true that Milosevic (Serbian president at the time) was a pro-Russian communist/socialist, the real reason for Serbian-Bosnian war was not because Serbia wanted to control all of ex-Yugoslavia’s states (otherwise it would also attack Montenegro, Croatia and Macedonia) and to empower Russia on Balkans. The war started when, after the collapse of Yugoslavia and rise of nationalism, Bosnian muslims (led by Bosnia’s “hero” Naser Oric aka The Butcher) massacred Serbs in the village of Kravica on an Orthodox Christmas day wedding. Several village massacres later, the Serbs launched an official military campaign and the war started.
Exactly the same thing was the cause for Kosovo-Serbian war in 1998, except it was the Albanian, not Bosnian, muslims (led by Kosovo’s current president and the head of Kosovo “Liberation” Army, Hashim Thachi) that did the massacring. They spiced it up with kidnappings and organ selling on the side; google Kosovo Yellow House or visit this blog for more info
http://www.juliagorin.com/wordpress/?p=2530
As far as Srebrenica “massacre” of Bosnian muslims goes, which you probably hear in mainstream media non-stop around the time of its anniversary, it’s an exaggeration to say the least. Every year, the Bosnian government releases several bodies of victims to be buried while inviting every single news outlet to film it, for maximum muslim victimhood effect. Some experts believe that the bodies were all buried a long time ago and that the bodies that are being buried now have nothing to do with Srebrenica. But even if they do, can you imagine being the victim’s family and having to wait all these years for the government to let you bury your loved ones? It’s insane anyway you look at it.
If you want to see the truth for yourself (and if you have the time), feel free to check out this documentary about the Serbian-Bosnian war, made by a Bosnian muslim who was an ex-soldier in the war and a Norwegian director who has no bias in the matter other than seeking the truth.

It’s true. Remember when the US was initially fine with Milosevic and said that “yes, he is a SOB but he’s our SOB. Then when he was no longer someone they could use, they started calling him the butcher of Balkans.
Problem is, that Muslims should NEVER, EVER be backed against Christians no matter who you think is the bad guy. That can never end well.
So Clinton is being blamed for the mess and for backing Muslims. Why is Trump keeping Camp Bondsteel still in Kosovo? Why is such a large base still there? Is he still willing to back Muslims (Albanians) and not right the wrong done? Is the same policy against Serbs staying strong?
These are the questions one has to ask if we are not to blame only Clinton.

Arabization, not just Islam alone. Some Malaysians are complaining about creeping Arabization, how they wear traditional clothes and don’t like the Arab way of life. Tajikistan banned now and as their women wear scarves tied behind their head. When the Saudi king visited Indonesia, which is getting worse, I thought of this. They pay and bully other countries. Muslims in Cyprus who drink alcohol are alarmed at the Turks moving in and mosque building. In short, if the Arabian peninsula was bombed to smithereens the world would be better off. It’s unfortunate but they chose their tyrannical Islamic path and are hated for it by Muslims and non-Muslims alike. And they are so discriminatory.
Americans doing business with them need to put their feet down to the Gilf states who have to bribe and bully since no one likes their “whole system” of living aka political Islam. Greed…

I don’t want to play devil’s advocate here, but the fact that it was an Orthodox Christian church and not a Catholic one suggests to me that the real reason behind the arson was not random muslims being pious, but Bosnian muslims hating Serbs. Orthodox churches in Bosnia (and Croatia for that matter) are social hubs for Serbs, because they need to stick together to endure the hostile environment. It’s an understatement to say that Serbs are not very popular there, especially with the latest ignition of nationalism and political provocations directed at Serbia by its ex-Yugo neighbors.
