[edit] youngest PhD?

in 1979. becoming the youngest PhD in former SFRY

He would have been 25 at that point. Is this information true? --Joy [shallot] 01:22, 24 August 2005 (UTC)


Yes,that is true,Dr. Seselj is youngest "doctor" as we call it in the history of Former Yugoslavia...Hes also a lunatic,but he makes pretty good points someyimes,thats why hes party is the strongest party in Serbia...Hes a populist,plain and simple


[edit] This article has very Serbian POV

I've added some external links about Seselj where he is described as warcriminal,founder of a notorious paramilitary group White Eagles and a close Milosevic ally responsable for many deaths through hatespeech,propaganda and his White Eagles.This article portrayes him as some sort of a martyr for Serbian people?!?!?!

What is wikipedia coming to?!?!--(GriffinSB) (talk) 22:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ethnicity

It is highly speculated that Seselj was half-Croat on his father's side. This aspect of his childhood is completely missing in virtually all research media. It is impossible to find out who his parents were and their respective ethnicities. This is reminiscent of others that have attempted to conceal that aspect of their ethnicity and then persecute those very people. Ahem, Hitler. Very interesting.... No it is not impossible. His father is originally from Rovci Monetengro. His fathers name was Nikola Seselj. His mother s maiden name was Misita(old family from Herzegovina) Seselj is undoubtedly Serb. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.117.15.118 (talk) 03:40, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] rhotacism

It's joined together with reference to oratorical skills because it is often an obstacle to the latter. (Disclaimer: I suffer from a mild form of the condition as well - so please no "you anti-rhotacist nazi!" comments :) --Joy [shallot]

[edit] Ability to communicate

I removed the part about his inability to communicate with his family or legal advisors because, simply, it's not true. It is true that he was forbidden from communicating, for two months, with anyone other than his legal advisors or the Serbian consulate after he revealed the identity of a protected witness in the summer of 2005, but such an antic is hardly noteworthy for someone like Šešelj.

[edit] Photos

Sorry, I added the photos, but I wasn't logged in. So, is this the best way for me to remedy that? Mattwhiteski 17:36, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Part about his talks in front of the Tribunal.

Is that really necessary to have it, with or without translation? I suggest removing it.

[edit] War Criminals category??

I removed the Category:War criminals. He has not been convicted of warcrimes, in fact his trial hasn't even started yet.65.94.134.29 17:26, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

yes, he is no more war criminal than Solana and Clinton. --TheFEARgod (Ч) 11:21, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

He is in the Hague right? Jesus Christ,F ultranationalists!--(GriffinSB) (talk) 21:51, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] More info of his involvement in the Balkan wars

Shouldn't there be a "bit" more info of his involvement in the Balkan wars? After all, he was one of the main serbian "madmen" at that time.

There should *really* be mention of his deranged threats to non-Serb Yugoslavs - as in "we will dig out the eyes of Croats with a rust spoon". But most perplexing - why did this great brave hero of the Serbian people, so abjectly surrender to the Hague Court? Doesn't really reflect too well on his intelligence... -- A patriotic Serb...

Haha, you lobbyists on Wiki are funny. Well, he surrendered to the Hague so he could educate the resident prosecutors and judges, primarily on law and history. ```` —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.105.30.80 (talk) 12:44, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Who?

Who deleted the page that i linked on this site, where i SPECIFICALLY quoted his absolute contempt for the Hague Tribunal where he tells basically the entire tribunal to [expletive deleted]? Who deleted this?

hey, calm down --TheFEARgod (Ч) 11:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Wow is right

I think it would be time to at least include what crimes he has been indicted on. There are obviously some users here who have issues with the article which go beyond the function of wikipedia, without naming any names, but it is obvious who that is.

Seselj hasn't been arrested because he has committed some sort of crimes, he simply wasn't politically alligned with the projects of the United States and is now being persecuted for his thoughts. Bh3u4m 20:20, 23 January 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Grand Duke

The Chetniks are not the KKK, so the translation of "voivoda" as a Grand Duke is highly inappropriate. There is a Wiki article that explains the meaning of this term, but if you insist on adding a translation you could use "commander" or "general". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.110.201.44 (talk) 12:27, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] White Eagles weren't organized by Seselj or Serbian Radicals

This is huge mistake...I also noticed this mistake in White Eagles...Seselj organized "Voulonteers of Serbian Radical Party.White Eagles were organized by Vuk Draskovic and Serbian Renewal Movement. Fix this ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zakipfc (talkcontribs) 01:01, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
