You thought Iron curtain was down? - you thought wrong

Winston Churchill's: From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe.

Most prominent part of the Iron Curtain was running through Berlin
It almost escaped us all, but let's get into the right groove first. WW2 ends, The Soviets seem to be able to have enough foresight into the next 100 years and put up what Churchill calls "the Iron Curtain", in spite of poor date selection (NATO was formed April 4, 1949), while Warsaw Pact (the ANSWER to NATO was formed May 14, 1955) - therefore it would be logical to conclude that the Western Part of Europe was the initiator of hostilities that resulted in Warsaw Pact formation and subsequent Berlin Wall - Iron Curtain Berlin Wall erected September 1961). This way we have the right chronology.

Ronald Reagan's: "Mr. Gorbachev, please take this wall down." - June 12, 1987

So the wall did come down. But another wall replaced it. It was a much more subtle wall, more silky, more undefined and more strategically placed. Right now this wall is around Serbia - as Serbia has not "fulfilled their international obligations" - which is code language for: tear down your own constitution and live as we command. In spite of the historical fact that Serbia is the only country that ever delivered its own sitting president to a foreign power for a trial that everybody knew would have been a staged trial, no, that didn't matter - Serbia was expected to admit defeat by NATO forces from the NATO aggression in 1999, that resulted in stalemate since NATO never set foot on Serbian lands, NATO's aggression remains unsanctioned by the world - so to avoid any international sanctions (possible reparations) NATO cloaked itself into the EU robes now makes life for Serbia extremely difficult in hopes of inducing a pro-western government to take leadership of this small and already badly butchered country. As in my previous article "A straw that broke a camel's back" - this is one of the two world's most important chess boards in the world and empires have been made or broken in these areas.
