7. SOUNDBITE: (Bosnian) Fata Orlovic, land owner:
This is my land, this is my house (showing the land and the house with her hands), and this is the Serb church in the middle of my land (showing the church). I want this church out of my land. All this you can see here is my land (showing the land with her hands). The church should be taken away. I just want my land and my front yard to be like it was before the war.
8. SOUNDBITE: (Bosnian) Fata Orlovic, land owner:
This was done by war criminals. The church was built when they were killing and slaughtering our people. Now it is calm. And they should remove the church.
9. Pan left from church to zoom-in of the house
10. SOUNDBITE: (Bosnian) Fata Orlovic, land owner:
I am in my house, all alone. I can't pray in this room. Look at this (she removes the curtains of the window and the church is seen outside).

I have to inform you that the government has reached the decision to remove and dislocate this church. We will do our best to do this in shortest possible time.
19. Mid of Dodik and Serb orthodox priest Vasilije Kacavenda, walking out of meeting
20. SOUNDBITE: (Serbian) Vasilije Kacavenda, Serbian priest:
I don't want to talk about this much, because this case is at court. But I need to stress that the land where this church is located, is actually called Crkvina (translation: 'the Churches'). It is written like that in the land-owner papers. I showed this to the Bosnian grand Mufti. It does say that the owner is Fata Orlovic, but the land is called Crkvina. And for us this means a lot.

STORYLINE:
A Bosnian Muslim widow's battle to remove a Serbian Orthodox church from her land came to an end on Thursday.
After eight years of court proceedings, the church will be moved.
In a small village of Konjevic Polje, about 20 kilometres (12.4 miles) east of Srebrenica, a huge Serb Orthodox church built in the yard in front of a smaller private house dominates the scene.
The church was built in the time of the four-year long war between the Serb and Muslim armies, and it was built by the Serbian church on the private land of a Muslim owner, Fata Orlovic.
Like many Muslims in the hills of eastern Bosnia, Orlovic was ethnically cleansed from the village during the war in the early 1990s.
Her husband was killed and she was made a refugee.

Montenegro: Thousands of believers protest new law on religion
Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe
Thousands gathered outside Saint Basil's of Ostrog cathedral in the Montenegrin city of Niksic on Saturday to protest a proposed law which would transfer all property of religious institutions to the state.
Footage shows believers and members of the Serbien Orthodox Church gathered outside and inside the cathedral.
Jovan Bulatovic, a believer hailing from Podgorica said, The law the government wants to pass is ill-favoured. This law wants to take over the 1,000 years old history and 800-year-old churches and religion. They want to privatise religion just like they privatised everything in Montenegro. The people won't let them do that. We will protect our faith, our church, our tradition.
Another believer, Vesna Bratic shared that she joined the gathering to support the Serbian Orthodox Church against their long lasting fight against this unconstitutional and ungodly law.
The law proposed by the Montenegrin government demands a registry of all religious objects and sites, and claims that ownership can only be retained if it is proven by clear evidence, prompting fears in the Serbian Orthodox community of losing property over their Church.

Despite police brutality, not allowing Serbs from other countries across, heavy rainfall, dozen of kilometers long traffic jams created by the police in order to not allow believers to gather in Nikšić - 20,000 people still gathered!
It is the biggest gathering in the history of my town, which only numbers ~50,000 citizens in it's urban core. Proportionally, that'd be as of 3,6 million people gathered in London, as if 6 million gathered in Moscow, as if 3,2 million people gathered in the streets of New York!
The gathering would've been even bigger, because an expected 10,000 Serbs from Republika Srpska and Serbia weren't let into Montenegro!
Now we wait for the 26th of December. If the government decides that it'll still go ahead with the law, after this spectacular show of rebellion, then we'll have no other choice, than to pick up arms and fight.
God, Saint Basil of Ostrog, Saint Peter of Cetinje are on our side. Only corruption, hatred and crime are on theirs!
To victory, brothers and sisters!

Na pocetku svake Pravoslavne Liturgije se peva: Psalam 102. Blagoslovi, dušo moja, Gospoda, i sve što je u meni ime sveto njegovo. Blagoslovi, dušo moja Gospoda i ne zaboravljaj sva uzdarja njegova...
Hor ga ovde izvodi na Crkvenoslovenskom jeziku koji je jos uvek u bogosluzbenoj upotrebi u Srpskoj Pravoslavnoj Crkvi.
