: certainly. Tomasevich describes it as such in two ways. He uses the phrase 'easy to understand' and 'understandable'. ] (]) 22:53, 19 August 2012 (UTC) |
|
|
:: the statements are made in the context of exacting revenge for Chetnik killings earlier in the war, as per the text I added at that point in the article. I will not insist on its inclusion, and am not here to defend the statement, merely that it is what the source says and that the editor that deleted it actually deleted sourced content, inappropriately in my view. ] (]) 23:40, 19 August 2012 (UTC) |

|
|
::::*Yes, I am sure that I correctly paraphrased Tomasevich. With respect, you are pulling phrases out of Tomasevich without the wider context of the paragraphs in which they appear, and even ignoring the next paragraph. If I was not WP:AGF and assuming that you have not quite worded your question right, I might suggest that this is another example of your tendentious questioning on talkpages. I must point out here that you do not always understand the intricacies of English, it is clearly not your first language, but it is mine. Mine is also Australian English, so there are already differences between the English you have learnt and mine. That much is clear from our regular miscommunications. However, I will respond assuming your question is asked in good faith. What possible brutal conclusion to the civil war do you think he is referring to? In the very next paragraph he refers to revenge as being a factor in the brutal conclusion to the civil war! The desperate battles as the collaborationist forces tried to get to Austria and avoid surrendering to them (knowing what their fate was likely to be)? Of course not, they were still battles, not mass killings. Blind Freddy could see that he is describing all of the Partisan killings of collaborationists at the end of the war (Ustase, Chetniks, Slovene Home Guard etc etc), which he describes as both 'revenge' and 'brutal political surgery' (both on p. 766), and he explains why. As far as why I have not included all the others killed, well pretty clearly the subject of this article is Djurisic (and the Montenegrin Chetniks insofar as to place his activities in context). Djurisic wasn't even killed at Kočevski Rog, and the information has been inserted to explain what happened to his soldiers. Few articles about military commanders explain what happened to their soldiers, and neither should they as it is not always necessary or even appropriate. I considered your suggestion a reasonable one in the circumstances, and included it, but that is all that needs to be included in an article about Djurisic. They were killed by the Partisans, partly in revenge for what they had done and partly as a way of getting rid of them so they wouldn't come back to bite them later. It's brutal and horrible, but that is what happened, and that is what the source says the motivation was. He also says that the actions of the Partisans at the end of the war were 'easy to understand' and 'understandable'. The places for a fulsome explanation of the fate of the other collaborationist forces killed by the Partisans in the same place are the ] article and the ] and ] articles, surely? Once again, I do not understand what you are trying to get at. ] (]) 01:50, 20 August 2012 (UTC) |

== July uprising == |

The role of Đurišić in July uprising is still eluded. |
|
|
|
|
|
] says that ''"DjuriSic had distinguished himself during the July uprising in the battle at Berane, where the worst fighting took place."'' . |
|
|
|
|
|
If Đurišić's enemy (Milovan Đilas) admits that he had distinguished role in the worst fighting during uprising then his role was really significant and claims that Đurišić was are not mistake of biased book.--] (]) 10:06, 20 August 2012 (UTC) |
|
|
: it's not 'eluded'. Please look on wiktionary for the meaning. I hope you mean that 'the article does not properly cover the important points regarding Djurisic's involvement in the July uprising'. I would usually question the use of Djilas, given his first person involvement, but given he is unlikely to have written anything positive about the enemy unless it was incontrovertible, I think he is an acceptable source given he corroborates Kurapovna. Thank you, I will add him as a source and add the 'distinguished role' information. ] (]) 10:56, 20 August 2012 (UTC) |
|
|
:: Done. ] (]) 05:31, 21 August 2012 (UTC) |
|
|
:::Yes you are right. Đilas was indeed involved in the events. It is better to use Kurapovna and ''"hero of the July uprisings in Montenegro"'' expression instead of ''"Captain Đurišić distinguished himself"''.--] (]) 12:22, 21 August 2012 (UTC) |
|
|
:::: You have misunderstood me. I have used Djilas as his language is neutral ie he used the word 'distinguished' and if he says it, then he certainly must have done that. Kurapovna's language is unencyclopedic and potentially biased/POV, ie whose 'hero' was he, and why? Having 'distinguished' himself does not beg that question. ] (]) 12:40, 21 August 2012 (UTC) |

=== Was Đurišić subordinated to the communists === |

|
{{Not resolved}} |
|

The text of the article says: |
|
|
* ''In mid-July 1941, there was a general <u>uprising against the Italians, led by the communists</u>.'' and |
|
|
* ''A split then developed between <u>the communist leaders of the uprising and the nationalists that had participated</u>.'' |
|
|
Does it mean that Đurišić was subordinated to the communists during this uprising? If not maybe it should be clarified because the existing text implies that Đurišić and his forces were subordinated to the communists. --] (]) 23:53, 25 August 2012 (UTC) |

== Commemoration controversy? == |
|
|
{{Not resolved}} |
|
|
There are two sentences which explain <u>why this memorial '''should not be''' constructed</u>: |
|
|
# The Association of War Veterans of the National Liberation Army (SUBNOR) objected to the construction of the monument saying that ''Đurišić was a war criminal who was responsible for the deaths of many colleagues of the veterans association and 7,000 Muslims''. |
|
|
# The following month the Montenegrin government forbade the unveiling of the monument stating that it ''"caused public concern, encouraged division among the citizens of Montenegro, and incited national and religious hatred and intolerance."'' |
|
|
|
|
|
This section has title which includes the word controversy. But there is nothing controversial in this section. A group of people wanted to erect memorial in Berane dedicated to Đurišić. Why? Nobody knows. <u>There is no explanation why this memorial '''should be''' constructed.</u> It is carefully explained only why it should not be constructed. I apologize if I am wrong, but I don't think that position of people who wanted to construct this memorial is presented according to WP:NPOV. --] (]) 14:26, 21 August 2012 (UTC) |

The text of the source, page 139, says that there was an influx of 25,000 refugees into Montenegro. The source says they ''"constituted a great economic burden"''. Out of that number only 5,000 were from Kosovo and Vojvodina. Rest of them were from other parts of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, like "refugees fleeing ustasha terror in the border areas of south-east Bosnia and Herzegovina". It is wrong to state that grievances against Italians were caused ''"particularly regarding the expulsion of Montenegrin people from the Kosovo region and Vojvodina"'' because it is not what source says. --] (]) 11:24, 23 August 2012 (UTC) |

::Yes it is addressed, but maybe not completely. The first main grievance is more or less properly explained, but I think it would be good to clarify other two main grievances: |
|
|
::* The source says: ''"page 139:<u>Another grievance</u> was the loss of the territory....near...Scutari... Plav... Gusinje, and especially the greater part of Kosovo region, all of which Italy included into "Greater Albania"''...". Now the article does not present this important information about the territory awarded to Greater Albania. This is important information not only for the context of the relations of Montenegrin people (which includes Đurišić) with Italians, but also with Albanians and Muslims. |
|
|
::* A third major grievance was caused by Italians who took money from population (Yugoslav banknotes of bigger nominations of 500 and 1,000 dinars) under excuse they were "unlawfully put into circulation" (page 139:''"<u>A third major grievance</u> had to do with stamping of old Yugoslav banknotes... Many Montenegrins were economically greatly damaged as a result (though apparently banknotes of all denominations had been put into circulation legally.."''). |
|
|
::Therefore I propose to clarify the context of the relation of Montenegrin people (and Đurišić) with Italians, but also with Albanians and Muslims by adding a sentence like: |

== Timeline problem, the split between communists and nationalists == |
|
|
|
|
|
Within six weeks after uprising started on 13 July 1941 Italians regained control over towns and communication routes. Here is what article says happened then (end of August, beginning of September 1941): |
|
|
|
|
|
* ''"A split then developed between the communist leaders of the uprising and the nationalists that had participated. As a result, the nationalists, including Đurišić who was popular in his own Vasojević clan of northern Montenegro, withdrew into the hinterland."'' |
|
|
|

|
Tomasevich's work was used to support the the first sentence. Here is what Tomasevich wrote on pages 140-142: |
|
|
* |
|
|
|
|
|
I think that the source is not properly interpreted. The text of the article could mislead the readers to believe that a split between communists and nationalists in Montenegro developed until August-September 1941, after Italians regained control over towns and communication routes. That is not correct. The source explicitly says that it happened at the beginning of 1942. It is important to be precise with the timeline here because events of this period are very important for understanding the full context of the future events. Đurišić withdrew into the hinterland not because of the split between communists and nationalists, but because of Italians who captured towns and communication routes. --] (]) 12:41, 23 August 2012 (UTC) |

: You have misinterpreted the source, it doesn't explicitly say that was <u>when the split developed</u>, it says that was when Mihailovic's attitude towards the Partisans was reflected in the relations between the various forces from the beginning of 1942.

The text of the article says: |
|
|
|
|
|
* ''From the time Đurišić joined Mihailović in northeastern Bosnia, he was very critical of Mihailović's leadership and <u>argued strongly for all remaining Chetnik troops to move to Slovenia</u>.'' |

Pawlovich says (page 241): |
|
|

|
* "''Đurišić wanted to go to Greece trough Albania, but Mihailović told him to prepare for an Allied landing, the return of King Peter and the formation of the national government.''" |
|

== Communists wanted to carry on with the revolution while Đurišić wanted to go on with the uprising == |
|
|
|
|
|
The text of the article says: |
|
|
|
|
|
* ''"In northern Montenegro, the distinction between the communists and nationalists was more pronounced, with the nationalists having closer ties with Serbia and a 'frontier' mentality towards Muslims. Ustashe manipulation of the Muslims in the Sandžak and the expulsion of Serbs from the areas annexed by Albania combined to make Đurišić and his Chetniks impatient to turn on the Muslims and Albanians in the region."'' |
|
|
|
|
|
The source (Pawlovich, page 78) says: |
|
|
|
|
|
* ''"The differences in the outlook between communists and nationalists were particularly pronounced in northern Montenegro, with its traditionally close ties with Serbia and its "frontier mentality" towards Muslims. It was there that ustasha manipulation of the Sandžak Muslims and the flight of the Orthodox from the area annexed to Albania was mostly felt. Whereas <u>communists wanted to carry on with the revolution</u>, by turning against 'traitors', 'kulaks' and 'spies' (particularly if they were Muslims), <u>Djurisić and his fighters were impatient to go on with the uprising</u> by marching into those districts and turning on the Muslims and Albanians."'' |
|
|
|
|
|
I think that the source is misinterpreted especially because the source emphasize that: |
|
|
# <u>Communists wanted to carry on with the <s>communist</s> revolution</u> aimed against the working class enemies, especially if they were Muslims |
|
|
# <u>Đurišić wanted to go on with the uprising</u> by turning on the Muslims and Albanians. |
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore I propose to properly interpret the source and to reword above mentioned paragraph to match what source actually says. Rewording maybe can be done like this: |
|
|
|
|
|
* ''"In northern Montenegro, the distinction between the communists and nationalists was more pronounced. It is a region with close ties with Serbia and a 'frontier' mentality towards Muslims where ustashe manipulation of the Muslims in the Sandžak and the expulsion of Serbs from the areas annexed by Albania was mostly felt. Communists wanted to carry on with the communist revolution aimed against class enemies, especially if they were Muslims, while Đurišić and his Chetniks wanted to go on with the uprising by turning on the Muslims and Albanians."'' |

|
|
::: As far as their relative notability, the Order of Karageorge was awarded to quite a number of Chetnik commanders, but only one Chetnik commander I am aware of was awarded the Iron Cross, which makes it more exceptional (ie it is a unique award to a Chetnik, unlike the Star). I listed the Star first in the infobox because it is standard practice to include indigenous awards before foreign ones, and that is as it should be. Your NPOV accusations are wrongheaded. The policy says 'editing from a neutral point of view (NPOV) means representing fairly, proportionately, and as far as possible without bias, all significant views that have been published by reliable sources.' My point is that it is mentioned once in the lead, once in the text, and given the exceptional nature of the award, the text is supported by the image. I would not be against including an image of the entitlement document for his Star if one was available, but I am not aware of one. The Iron Cross is fairly and proportionately represented when you take into account the uniqueness of the award. I see no bias in supporting the text with an image. And by the way, which Durmitor operation are we talking about and where is the source that says what date the award occurred? ] (]) 10:48, 25 August 2012 (UTC) |

::::::It is incorrect that ] award is of exceptional nature. The article about Iron Cross award says that millions of this crosses were awarded. Some sources (including wikipedia article) say that <u>5 million EK II</u> (the type allegedly awarded to Đurišić) were awarded. On the other hand, Karađorđe's star was very rarely awarded only for exceptional merit. Even if it is undisputed that Đurišić ever received it (which is not) I still believe that it is against wp:npov to give so much more weight to information about Iron Cross award allegedly given by Axis powers comparing to the information about award given to Đurišić by Yugoslav government. |

You have yet to produce reliable sources which dispute that he received the Iron Cross.

|
*"Proof that <u>Operation Schwartz finally evolved '''almost exclusively''' into an operation against Partisans, though it was conceived as '''an operation against both the Partisans and the Chetniks'''</u>, is best indicated by German estimates of losses inflicted upon the two groops:...estimated that the Partisans had 12,000 killed and 1,500 captured, and the Chetniks only about 3,000 captured and disarmed." |

Currently there is a paragraph that generally covers Djurisic's activity in March 1942; however there is a more detailed page in Tomasevich 1975 stating that at the time there was a "comprehensive" Italian-Chetnik agreement formed and signed by Biroli and Djukanovic assumed to be known by Mihailovic. It specifically details the collaboration between the Italians and Chetniks in Montenegro which included about 1,500 Djurisic's men being officially recognized and organized as a "flying detachment" and much more. See for more info. This should help add more context especially for the Biroli and Djurisic pic.

:Ђуришић је јавио Михаиловићу да је на муслиманској страни погинуло око 400 бораца и 1.000 жена и деце.2929 Њихово страдање је међутим, била знатно веће. Албански министар Ћазим Блаца (Qazim Bllaca) писао је 26. јануара новоизабраном председнику владе Екрему Љибохови (Ekrem Libohoven), како је на подручју Горњег и Доњег Бихора убијено 7.600 људи, а у Тутин, Рожаје, Петњицу и Бјело Поље избегло око 14.000 муслимана.Радило се ипак, о преувеличаној цифри, будући да је Љибохова 30. јануара преко тутинског префекта добио детаљан извештај од стране „представника избеглица из Бихора“. У њему стоји да је током четничке акције убијено: 775 мушкараца (од тога 185 „масакрираних“), 625 жена (од тога 285 масакрираних) и чак, 1.406 деце разног узраста. Укупно 2.806 лица. |

:Đurišić informed Mihailović that about 400 soldiers and 1,000 women and children had died on the Muslim side.2929 However, their suffering was significantly greater. On January 26, Albanian Minister Qazim Bllaca wrote to the newly elected Prime Minister Ekrem Libohoven that 7,600 people were killed in the area of Gornji and Donji Bihor, and about 14,000 Muslims fled to Tutin, Rožaje, Petnjica and Bjelo Polje. It was, however, an exaggerated figure, since on January 30 Libohoven received a detailed report from the "representative of refugees from Bihor" through the prefect of Tutin. It states that during the Chetnik operation, 775 men were killed (of which 185 were "massacred"), 625 women (of which 285 were massacred) and even 1,406 children of various ages. A total of 2,806 persons. |

:Цифре из Ђуришићевог исказа се међутим, морају посматрати са великом дозом опреза. На првом месту, документ је настао само неколико дана после завршетка акције током којих је било немогуће евидентирати толики број жртава, обзиром на: широку област где су спровођене операције, велики број спаљених села, обилне снежне падавине и чињенице да су Италијани са одласком црногорских четника почели да врше интезивне рације хапсећи и сукобљавајући се са свим особама затеченим на згариштима муслиманских села у унутрашњости Пљеваљског, Прибојског и Чајничког среза.Навешћемо затим, извештај статистичке секције Одбора за збрињавање муслиманских избеглица у Пљевљима, а о страдању муслиманског становништва почетком фебруара 1943. године на територији Пљеваљског и дела Прибојског среза. Детаљан попис страдалих лица, попаљених села и кућа рађен је два месеца и завршен 18. априла. Он предат и влади НДХ. Према њему на разне начине снаге ЈВуО-а су усмртиле 1.352 лица, међу којима 1.107 жена, деце и стараца. Имена свих жртава су пописана (АЈ, фонд 110, ДКРЗ, кут. 341, стр. 130–135; ЗМП, ИО, фонд 4, НОБ, Непријатељска грађа, инв. бр. 42, стр. 1–4); После рата Удружење бораца Пљевља је по именима и месту рођења пописало 1.419 жртава четничког похода из фебруара 1943. године само на територији Пљеваљског среза (V. Dedijer, A. Miletić, nav. del., str. 768–836); Сличан попис становништва направио је и Месни народни одбор КПЈ-а из Фоче. У њему се тврди, додуше без навођења имена, да је само на простору Прибојског среза ликвидирано 1.106 особа. Сабирањем ове две цифре близу смо Ђуришићевог навода о 2.700 убијених људи, укључујући и борце. Група људи даље, предвођена сакупљачем народних песама и гусларом Џемаилом Арнаутовићем саставила је списак убијених муслимана на територији Прибојског среза и обајвила га 2005. године. Током пописа којег је према речима Арнаутовића спровело 112 особа, прибележена су имена 2.473 особе који су биле убијене од стране снага ЈВуО-а. Списак се односи на страдале током јануара 1942. и фебруара 1943. године, укључујући и борачко становништво. Велика већина је изгубила живот током другог напада, али попис не говори која је жртва када страдала (Dž. Arnautović, nav. del., str. 111, 116– 187); Иако се ради о приватној иницијативи истаживача – аматера, ове бројке се морају узети у разматрање. Уколико их прихватимо, долазимо до броја од нешто мање од 3.892 убијена муслимана у Прибојском и Пљеваљском срезу (због оних убијених почетком 1942. године). Овај списак међутим, још увек чека на документовану научно-методолошку потврду. Било којој прихваћеној цифри би требало додати и страдале муслимане током исте акције у Чајничком и Фочанском срезу. Оне срећом, услед правовремене евакуације локалних муслимана преко Дрине, нису велике. Према подацима ДКРЗ-а од 626 убијених муслимана на простору Чајничког среза током окупације, само је око 200 лица страдало током 1943. године. За већину такође, није био утврђен датум смрти. Исто важи и за Фочански срез, где је од 3.525 муслиманских жртава у току рата око 150 лица страдало фебруара 1943. године (V. Dedijer, A. Miletić, nav. del., str. 640–694, 723–734); На крају, колики год да су били губици које је муслимански живаљ претрпео фебруара 1943. године у ова четири среза, они су доста мањи од оних које је навео мајор Ђуришић у обраћању Михаиловићу 13. фебруара 1943. године. |

:The figures from Đurišić's testimony, however, must be viewed with a great deal of caution. In the first place, the document was created only a few days after the end of the action, during which it was impossible to record such a large number of victims, considering: the wide area where the operations were carried out, the large number of burnt villages, heavy snowfall and the fact that the Italians, with the departure of the Montenegrin Chetniks, began to carry out intensive raids, arresting and confronting all persons found at the burning sites of Muslim villages in the interior of the Pljevlja, Priboj and Čajnica regions.We will then cite the report of the statistical section of the Committee for the Care of Muslim Refugees in |

:Pljevlja, and about the suffering of the Muslim population at the beginning of February 1943 the territory of Pljevlja and part of Priboj county. Detailed list of victims, burned villages and the house was built for two months and finished on April 18. They was also handed over to the NDH government. According to them on various JVuO forces killed 1,352 people, including 1,107 women, children and the elderly. Names of the victims were listed. After the war, the Pljevlja Veterans Association is named after place of birth listed 1,419 victims of the Chetnik campaign from February 1943 only on in the territory of the Pljeval county similar list population was also made by the Local People's Committee of the KPJ from Foča. It claims, albeit without naming, that 1,106 people were liquidated in the area of Pribojski srez alone By adding these two figures, we are close to Đurišić's allegation of 2,700 people killed, including fighters. A group of people further on, led by folk song collector and fiddler Džemail Arnautović, compiled a list of Muslims killed in the territory of the Priboj County and published it in 2005. During the census, which, according to Arnautović, was carried out by 112 people, the names of 2,473 people who were killed by JVuO forces were recorded. The list refers to those who died during January 1942 and February 1943, including the military population. The vast majority lost their lives during the second attack, but the census does not say which victim died when. Although it is a private initiative of amateur researchers, these figures must be taken into consideration. If we accept them, we arrive at a number of slightly less than 3,892 Muslims killed in the Priboj and Pljeval counties (due to those killed at the beginning of 1942). This list, however, is still waiting for a documented scientific-methodological confirmation. Any accepted figure should also include the Muslims who died during the same action in Čajniče and Foča srez. Fortunately, due to the timely evacuation of local Muslims across the Drina, they are not large. According to DKRZ data, out of 626 Muslims killed in the area of Čajnički srez during the occupation, only about 200 people died in 1943. For the majority, too, the date of death was not determined. The same is true for the Foča section, where out of 3,525 Muslim victims during the war, around 150 persons perished in February 1943. In the end, whatever the losses Muslim population suffered in February In 1943, in these four counties, they are much smaller than those mentioned by Major Đurišić in |

Broj ubijenih civila koji pominje Đurišić (do 8.000) dvostruko je uveličan u odnosu na realan broj ubijenih muslimanskih civila od 5. do 13.2.1943, pri čemu, za razliku od Đurišića, mislim i na muškarce civile, ne samo na žene, decu i starce. Prema mojoj proceni, nakon 13.2.1943, odnos no nakon datuma kada je Đurišić poslao izveštaj Mihailoviću, na području Pribojskog i Pljevaljskog sreza ubijeno je između 1.000 i 2.000 Muslimana, pri čemu se većina odnosi na stanovnike Pribojskog sreza. Istorijska nauka još uvek nije dala odgovor na pitanje koliko je Muslimana stradalo u četničkom teroru od 5. do 25.2.1943. na području zapadnog Sandžaka i gornjeg Podrinja. Prema mojoj proceni, u tom razdoblju JVuO je ubila preko 5.000 Muslimana, ogromnom većinom civila, pod uslovom da naučno bude dokazano da je u Pribojskom srezu ubijeno oko 2.379 osoba, koliko ih poimenice navodi Arnautovićev spisak. Da li je i koliko je realan broj stradalih veći od 5.000 pokazaće buduća istraživanja. U svakom slučaju, moja pretpostavka je da je broj žrtava veći od 5.000. Moja istraživanja vezana za stradanje stanovnika Pljevaljskog sreza, koja nameravam predstaviti u jednom drugom radu, pokazala su da u tri spiska žrtava postoje poimenični podaci za oko 1.987 muslimanskih stanovnika Pljevaljskog sreza koji su ubijeni februara 1943, tokom i nakon vojne operacije JVuO. |

:operations was several times smaller, perhaps ten times smaller, than the number stated by Đurišić (about 1,200). The number of killed civilians mentioned by Đurišić (up to 8,000) is doubled compared to the real number of Muslim civilians killed from 5 to 13 February 1943, where, unlike Đurišić, I am also referring to male civilians, not only women, children and old man. According to my estimation, after February 13, 1943, the date when Đurišić sent the report to Mihailović, between 1,000 and 2,000 Muslims were killed in the area of Priboj and Pljevlja County, with the majority referring to the inhabitants of Priboj County. Historical science has not yet given an answer to the question of how many Muslims perished in Chetnik terror from February 5 to 25, 1943. in the area of western Sandžak and upper Podrinje. According to my estimation, in that period JVuO killed over 5,000 Muslims, the vast majority of them civilians, provided that it is scientifically proven that around 2,379 people were killed in the Priboj County, as many as Arnautović's list states by name. Whether and to what extent the real number of victims is greater than 5,000 will be shown by future research. In any case, my guess is that the number of victims is higher than 5,000. My research related to the suffering of the residents of Pljevaljski srez, which I intend to present in another paper, showed that in three lists of victims there are name data for about 1,987 Muslim residents of Pljevalja Countywho were killed in February 1943, during and after the military operation JVuO. ] (]) 15:54, 5 January 2024 (UTC) |
