This article is another Serbian nationalist propaganda attempt to slander Croats[edit]

Please watch this objective American/Brittish (Fox,Discovery) documentary about the terrorist group.These guys were terrorists and criminals,but had nothing to do with the WW2 or anything from that period.Their single goal was the destruction of Yugoslavia and free Croatia.But Serbs as always like to present Croatian nationalism and patriotism as some nazism from outter space for their propagandist and political pourposes.

Luburić successors' relations with other organizations[edit]

This paragraph was tagged for verification since 2011:

After Luburić's death, his successors on the organization commanding post, sought out criminal organization ties with La Cosa Nostra, the Provisional Irish Republican Army, and the Croatian Mafia in San Pedro.

I found this sourced at Vjekoslav Luburić:

  • The 15th City. Xlibris Corporation. 2011. p. 130. ISBN 978-1-4628-8015-7. {{cite book}}: Cite uses deprecated parameter |authors= (help)</ref>

But this is some fringe book that I can't immediately figure out if it's fact or fiction, because on the preceding page it talks of a first ratline of "Miro Krunovich", which should be Krunoslav Draganović, and it also talks of 300,000 NDH concentration camp victims, which is some sort of a conflation with the number of the total NDH regime victims. I'll remove all of the closely paraphrased text from that book unless its reliability is vouched for. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 19:57, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Croat National Resistance (Hrvatski Narodni Otpor - HNO)

"This Ustaša organization was founded in the aftermath of the Second World War in Spain under the direction of General Max Luberić. He had been in charge of the Croat concentration camps during the brief period of the fascist 'Independent Croat State' (1941-45). As such he had earned himself the unenviable reputation of being a 'Croatian Himmler'. The HNO ran a terrorist organisation, Drina, which continued to be active well into the 1970s. Luberić was murdered in 1969, but the HNO survived. It continued in Australia under the former UHRO militant, Srecko Blaz Rover, and in West Germany under Stjepan Bilandzic. It carried out several attacks in the mid-1970s on Yugoslav officials and trains. It was banned in West Germany in 1976 but maintained a clandestine existence publishing Otpor (Resistance). However, on 25 May 1978 the HNO chairman, Stjepan Bilandzić, was arrested in West Germany on terrorist charges. The Croatian Revolutionary Brotherhood (Hrvatsko Revolucionarno Bratsvo — HRB) The HRB emerged in Australia in the 1950s, when it engaged in the training of terrorists who were infiltrated into Yugoslavia in 1963 and 1972."

History[edit]

The introduction of this section as given

During WWII, Croatia was able to become an independent nation, called the Independent State of Croatia (NDH). During this time, the Croatian Leadership was under the Ustasha political party and, was headed by Ante Pavelić. The NDH was supported by the axis powers and participated in the creation and use of concentration camps.[6] While they used anti-semetisim to align with the values of the Axis powers, their true goal for the nation was to drive out all Bosnian-Serbs.[6] It is thought that the various war crimes committed during these times is what spurred the anti-Croat sentiment within Serbian populations.[6] After WWII Yugoslavia became a socialist country.[6] With the use of propaganda, Yugoslavia portrayed the Croat diaspora population a group of fascist terrorist with no greater goal than to destroy the state.[6] While this view of the Croat diaspora population was largely slanted, it did describe a small number of loosely organized groups which were in line with the Ustashe, the ultra-nationalist terrorist group founded by Ante Pavelić.[6]
