GAVRILO PRINCIP our hero!

Gavrilo Princip hero! Mlada Bosna (Young Bosnia) was political and revolutionary youth organization who fought against occupation and annexing of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Austria-Hungary Empire! Their cause was freedom and unification with Serbia and other South Slavs! Nationalism, patriotism, and rebellion are common to all cultures, nations, religions, societies. Martyrdom and self-sacrifice on behalf of the nation are common ideals. Gavrilo Princip and Patrick Pearse embodied these ideals in seeking to achieve independence for their respective nations. This is what emerges when the rhetoric and propaganda is deconstructed and analyzed. Their importance or role in history does not change, but our evaluation of their significance and role changes. Moreover, the evaluation changes for different groups and strata and nations. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Indeed, one man's freedom fighter is the same man's terrorist at different moments in time. The labels only change, but what they label does not change. The evaluation depends on who doing the labeling, on who is writing the history. The danger here is that history becomes merely propaganda, a fantasy construct based in delusion and absurdity. Austria-Hungary occupied Bosnia and Herzegovina after the Rebellion of 1875. Empire declared annexing of province in 1908.In eyes of people Austria-Hungary Empire was the same tyrant occupier as Ottomans were! Slavery is heavy and freedom is dearest that is why people celebrate Gavrilo Princip! ///// This is my first video, and I am not so skilled to make it in BBC quality, but ot os more important to me to share the word about Gavrilo, and to show you by using two youtube videos that NAZI GERMANS when they occupied Sarajevo in 1941 demolished monument to Princip, and this videos are telling much more then any history book written by today's powers...
