Talk:Marko Orešković

POV bits
This was originally added in 2005 by basically unreferenced, and expanded by me using info from  on sr:wiki :


 * In late 1980s the official version of his death was challenged by Serb nationalists. Instead, it was attributed to his alleged opposition to official Party policy.


 * General Gojko Polovina, commander of the VI Lika Division who fought together with Orešković, gave this alternate description in the magazine "Student", and named two partisans who allegedly killed Orešković in the village of Očijevo. The same Polovina is, by his own testimony, known to have commanded partisan units that acted more like the Chetniks than like the Partisans, given that they were composed of Serbs only and committed reprisals against Croatian population. It is unclear how Polovina could amend the description of Orešković's death without implicating himself, given that it was actually he who wasn't acting in compliance with the official Party policy.

tagged this Fact/POV in September 2007. Since then it's basically been sitting there, so I'm removing this stuff now. If someone wants this included, we need a reliable source. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 13:49, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

It stands to reason that both versions are just different descriptions of the same event - a rogue militia squad, ethnic Serbs, kill Orešković, and the response of the Party is to simply brand them Chetniks, whereas the response of this guy is to say they were also Partisans, and that they were actually following policy. So, whatever. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 13:54, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
