Carl Kosta Savich
Carl Kosta Savich (Serbian: Карл Коста Савић) is a Serbian American historian and journalist. He received his B.A. in Political Science from the University of Michigan[1] and has an M.A. in History from Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan[citation needed] and a J.D. in Law from the University of Baltimore School of Law in Baltimore, Maryland.[citation needed] He also has a Master of Arts Degree in Teaching (MAT) from Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan.[citation needed]
Background[edit]
Carl Savich is a member of the Alpha Zeta Upsilon chapter of the history honor society, Phi Alpha Theta. He has received an LCP BW American Jurisprudence Award and a Handy and Harmon Academic Scholarship.[2] According to his personal biography, Carl Savich has been a contributor to Foreign Policy, antiwar.com, Liberty of the Serbian National Defense Council of America and American Srbobran (American Serb Defender). His areas of interest and expertise are history, journalism, political science and law.[2]
Carl Savich frequently takes a critical stance toward certain ethnic and religious groups, especially Albanians, Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) and Croats,[2] to counter what he sees as the pro-Muslim, pro-Albanian, pro-Croatian bias in the US media.[3] He also criticized what he calls "the blatant hypocrisy" of the UN Special Envoy to Kosovo and the later Nobel Peace Prize winner Martti Ahtisaari. Carl Savich criticized the Finnish Government when Ahtisaari was President in 1999 for seeking to honor former Finnish SS troops from World War II.[citation needed] The Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal had found the Waffen SS to be criminal organization. After criticism from Jewish groups, Ahtisaari did not go through with the plan to honor the SS troops.[citation needed] Both Finnish government and Ahtisaari dismissed these accusations. They claimed that the Finnish Nazi SS troops were just ordinary soldiers. The Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal, however, decided that the opposite was the case legally.[citation needed]
His work has been cited on the US Holocaust Memorial Museum website in Washington, DC.[citation needed]
In 2012, he claimed that the Bosnian Government had named an elementary school after a World War II Bosnian Muslim Nazi Waffen SS officer in the Bosnian Muslim "Handzar" SS Division.[4] This expose caused a media uproar in Bosnia. In 2008, he showed through Hague war crimes testimony that the Bosnian Muslim Government of Alija Izetbegovic had reformed the World War II Bosnian Muslim Nazi Waffen SS Division "Handzar".[5][6]
