Keep the hate alive

Troubled water is just what Bishop Peric wants to flow between the
Muslim and Christian parts of the sundered Herzegovinian capital,
writes Ian Traynor
Thursday July 29, 2004
Among the hundreds of statesmen, royals, clerics and diplomats in
Mostar last week to mark the restoration of the city's famous old
Ottoman bridge, there was a highly significant absentee. Mostar's
Roman Catholic bishop, Ratko Peric, boycotted the biggest party the
city has seen for decades, demonstrating his church's utter opposition
to the re-integration of a metropolis sundered by Roman Catholic Croat
militias 10 years ago.
Bishop Peric's act was an extraordinary snub and highlights the
pernicious role the church hierarchy is playing in feeding the bigotry
and Christian triumphalism that keep the city divided between Bosniaks
and Croats, Muslims and Christians.
