BURLINGTON, Vt. — A Bosnian immigrant accused of lying to U.S. immigration authorities by denying involvement in war crimes during the conflict in Bosnia two decades ago pleaded not guilty on Friday.

Prosecutors allege Edin Sakoc, who has been living in Burlington, the state's largest city, was involved in war crimes against a civilian Bosnian Serb family in 1992. An indictment says he raped a Serb woman and aided in the killing of the two elderly people she was caring for and the burning of the house they were staying in.

Much like blacks can not be guilty of racism, muslims can not be guilty of war crimes. If he raped a Serb woman, that was just exercising his freedom of religious expression.

Well, Clintbilly fought on the side of the Muslims, and W agreed with him when it was his turn, and Barack always fights on the Muslim side.

So, what’s a rape or two—or a million? After all, they’re entitled to their culture, aren’t they?

Just so. Rape is always the woman’s fault. Mohammed told me so.
