I have had trouble sleeping the last few weeks. I wake up around four or five in the morning, and then it takes me a couple of hours to fall asleep again. And those few hours are pure nightmare. I cannot stop going through my arguments in court. I start by saying that the offending text was on my personal website of literary character and in English language, as well as that my statistics show that few Croatians ever visit it. Then I read from the Croatian constitution about my right to express my opinion in writing. I follow this by reading a definition of conflict of interests, showing that my text could not be construed as libelous. At this point I go on the attack. And I outline my argument about the political economy of my court case. The Croatian libel law is an instrument of political repression. And the court is an instrument of repression, as well, for it would otherwise reject out of hand false libel cases like mine. Then I outline the political repression in Motovun, Istria, and all of Croatia. I explain that it has obvious economic roots. Everything has to do with a land grab of momentous proportions. Land in state hands is going into private hands at an unprecedented rate. Land manipulation under the guise of spatial or physical planning predominates on municipal and regional levels, while manipulation with investment into land and money laundering are reserved for the most powerful politicians and government officials on the national level. Political repression is devised to make the land grab as invisible as possible. Etc., etc. I go over this story over and over again, until I become so exhausted that I fall asleep. Morning after morning. Week after week. Of course, harassment of political opponents is a part of repression.
