First and foremost I can not express how wonderful it is not living around naggers, illegals, white trash, fucking jews and your general run of the mill sheeple. \uu\

YES, there are challenges dealing with the government but they're manageable. The old house on the property I purchased was demolished and should start digging out the garage on Monday. The shit part about this situation is that I wasn't able to bring Enzo with me because I couldn't find a house to rent with a yard, BUT he's with a world champion trainer till the house is completed, some time in November. The way things are going Enzo will probably get titled a few times before November. Good times so far, and watching the news in the U.S. etc really breaks my heart.

This was today. The garage is going between the red lines and the house on top.

Do you follow Croatian politics? Maybe you should get involved? You might have a lot to offer after watching firsthand California turn into a liberal hellhole.
Looks like they need help starting an anti-socialist movement. With the EU breaking up, more changes are coming.

Croatian government collapses after four months
By Markus Salzmann
11 June 2016

The Croatian government led by the non-party pharmaceutical manager Tihomir Oreskovic has fallen apart after just four months in power.

Last week, the head of the rightward-leaning Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), Tomislav Karamarko, withdrew support from Oreskovic and allowed the coalition with the right-wing liberal Most party, under its leader Bozo Petrov, to collapse.

However, because Oreskovic has no intention of resigning, the HDZ could introduce a motion to remove him in parliament. Oreskovic previously demanded the resignation of Karamarko and Petrov from their joint position as deputy prime minister. The HDZ leader then ended the coalition. The issue is now whether the HDZ will manage to cobble together a new majority in parliament or if new elections will be required.

Karamarko came under severe pressure after it was revealed that his wife received consultancy fees of €60,000 from a lobbyist for the Hungarian minerals firm Mol. The opposition Social Democrats (SDP) responded in May by initiating impeachment proceedings against Karamarko.

Parliamentary elections last November ended in a tie between the right-wing HDZ and SDP. The new party, Most, became the kingmaker and united with the HDZ to appoint Oreskovic as Prime Minister. Oreskovic had never before publicly participated in political life and was unknown to the wider public. The former head of a North American pharmaceutical concern was, in the words of former intelligence agency chief Karamarko, pledged to impose “tough reforms.”

From the outset, fierce conflicts and controversy rocked the new government. Three Most deputies left the party and refused to vote for Oreskovic because they did not agree with the allocation of ministries. Regardless, the coalition explicitly agreed on an extremely right-wing programme.

The HDZ is based on ultra-conservative and radical right-wing groups. In May, the government backed a “march for life,” which was initiated by clericalist and openly fascist forces against the right to abortion. The most prominent participant was the wife of the Prime Minister, Sanja Oreskovic. The chairman of the council of bishops, Selimir Puljic, felt so emboldened that he proposed a referendum on the lifting of the ban of the fascist greeting from World War II, “Ready for the fatherland,” in the military.

The minister of veterans, Mijo Crnoja, who has since resigned, planned a list of “national traitors,” a state register of all those who did not show enough “devotion to the fatherland” in the war against Serbia or spoke out against the government. He was explicitly defended by Oreskovic.

In addition, the coalition also agreed to continue to deter refugees fleeing the imperialist wars in the Middle East and close off the so-called Balkan route.

At the end of April, the government passed a national reform programme in response to a critical country report by the European Union which demanded the implementation of further reforms. Oreskovic referred to sixty “not difficult, but necessary” austerity measures being put in place. On the spending side, comprehensive cuts were included which hardly left any sector untouched, from healthcare to childcare and agriculture.

The government also pressed ahead with the privatisation of state enterprises. Above all, the state electricity provider and highway company are to be hived off as soon as possible, and will be connected with large-scale layoffs. The pension system is also to be reformed. An increase in the retirement age to 67 is planned.

Croatia has been in a deep economic crisis since 2008. The country has one of the highest unemployment rates in the EU, officially at 16 percent.

Public debt continues to increase, currently standing at 87 percent of GDP. The budget deficit, at 5.9 percent, is well above the Maastricht criteria, which stipulate that EU members must maintain a budget deficit of less than 3 percent of economic output.

After six years of recession, the Croatian economy grew minimally last year. Croatia was recently unable to issue any new government debt because political instability pushed interest rates too high. Moody’s downgraded Croatia’s credit rating in March.

Large protests erupted last month in response to attacks on the education system. The attempt by the openly fascist culture minister Zlatko Hasanbegovic to turn the education system to the right unleashed the largest protest movement in years. Forty thousand people took to the streets in the capital Zagreb with other demonstrations taking place across the country. Hasanbegovic, a historian, has defended and relativised the crimes of the Ustashe regime during World War II.

The collapse of the government has provoked a serious political crisis in the country. Oreskovic and President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic have already held secret talks to discuss future steps. The government is under significant pressure from the EU and the International Monetary Fund to pursue a sustained austerity program.

Representatives of all parties agree that the imposition of economic reforms takes priority. Vladimir Seks, a leading figure in the HDZ, stated that even the resignation of Karamarko could be considered and may even be “in the national interest” to allow the government to proceed with its austerity program. Bloomberg news agency cited a business representative as saying, “Economic growth in Croatia is more important than temporary political instability.”

Not going to say it's greener just yet, but compared to L.A. it's a hugely difference in the right direction. The people are very nice etc. No complaints other than dealing with city government, they LOVE paperwork.

I don't think there is one country in the world that doesn't have lots of Marranos running the government other than maybe North Korea, so getting into politics with anti-Jew-World-Order messages isn't going to be easy, if possible at all. But it's still probably a better place to live in than the US, particularly if you have roots there. Jews have to concentrate on the US because when they bring it down completely and undisputedly, the rest of the countries will be easier.

GLTU!

CROATIA’S GROUNDBREAKING MEDICAL CANNABIS LAWS MAKE GLOBAL IMPACT

CROATIA MAKES MEDICAL MARIJUANA HISTORY

The small European country of Croatia is making a huge splash in the world of medical cannabis. So huge, in fact, that the country is quickly surging to the forefront of progressive cannabis laws. And along the way, it’s helping to change the way the world thinks about cannabis.

Back in December 2014 the country formed a committee of doctors and medical experts to study medical cannabis.

The project was called simply The Commission. Its main goal was to determine whether or not the country should legalize medical cannabis.

To reach its decision, The Commission looked at current scientific research and studied cannabis laws in other countries.

After reviewing all this material, The Commission concluded that there was enough positive evidence to officially recommend legalizing medical cannabis.

From there things progressed quickly.

By October 2015 the country passed a new set of laws. It became the first Balkan country to legalize cannabis products for medical uses.

The entire process took less than one full year.

Croatia’s response to current evidence reflects a remarkably positive take on the health potential of cannabis.

The country also stands out for its ability to quickly draft, pass, and enact progressive cannabis laws.

Under the new rules, doctors are allowed to prescribe cannabis teas, ointments, and other extracts to patients with a qualifying health condition.

But there are still limits to how far the new laws go.

For one, cannabis flowers for smoking or vaporizing are still not allowed. And so far only a handful of health conditions qualify for cannabis treatment.

But probably the biggest challenge the country faced was actually getting medical cannabis.

Since there were no producers in the country itself, Croatia had to look elsewhere for its supply. And this is where things get really interesting.

Earlier this month, Croatia received its first shipment of medical cannabis products from Tilray, a medical cannabis company based in Canada.

This was a historic moment for the global medical cannabis scene.

That’s because it was the first time ever that a North American cannabis company legally exported cannabis products that contained both THC and CBD into the European Union.

It also allowed Croatia to begin making medical cannabis available to patients.

Taken together, Croatia’s new medical cannabis laws represent huge steps forward for the world of medicinal cannabis.

By quickly acting on scientific evidence to legalize medical cannabis, and then opening up new channels for legally exporting and importing cannabis products, Croatia has helped legitimize cannabis as a viable product and medicine.

Going on vacation at the end of August for 2 weeks. Flying to Split, staying there with side trip to Dubrovnik then one week on the Island of Vis.

I think we will rent a car for the entire trip. Road signs are very helpful and heard that navigating around is pretty straight forward.

Few things driving.

1 - No right turn on a red
2 - When at a light it's literally like a drag strip. It goes from Red, to Yellow to Green, everyone seems to go at yellow
3 - Round abouts are pretty much, if your entering the person that's going around is going to signal that they're exiting so it's safe to enter, no signal wait.
4 - You can use your phone to text for a parking permit that you put on your dash
5 - Try not to go over 20km's of the speed limit
6 - Everything else is straight forward other than the no parking sign which is blue with a red x.

Hope that helps.

wow thanks GOd, this helps and at least we are driving on the right side of the road. Driving on the left side almost ended on catastrophe in Jamaica cyprus, very awkward at intersections to not instinctively go to the right side.

Ok leaving Friday staying in Split 4 nights and Vis Island 5 nights. Going on a "speed boat tour of 6 islands with lunch and wine tasting" the first day there, very good reviews, pretty pricey. Since we will have a car any day trips out of split that you recommend as I know you are in Zagreb so any pointers thanks
