And why then do you think you know something about the etymology of the name "Zagreb"? It takes years of studying to have an informed opinion about that, don't you think?

Not really, no.  I don't see what a lack of knowledge regarding current separatist movements in Croatia has to with historical linguistics. That's like telling someone who doesn't know how to fix a car that they've got no business having an opinion on lyric poetry.

Several sources say the name is likely to be either German or Hungarian in origin (your rather tedious attempts to show otherwise notwithstanding).  For example, Messapian has been an extinct language since the first century, so it's unlikely to be that.

Wikipedia references are your friend.
