Great now that you have admitted that you were not in Bihac you can continue to tell the truth by saying you were never in Srebrenica, Bosnia. If you were I'm sure you have some personal pictures to post on FR. Every vet has those. So show the photos of the dead thousands you claim to have seen. You opened the door....

At first this Ronly character just came across as plain rude. He obviously has some burning hatred of Serbians. But now I view him sorta like that movie "Behind Enemy Lines". I brace myself in anticipation of being pissed off, but I just end up rolling around laughing at every scene. Mel Brooks would be proud. It's so over the top, it's entertaining - just like Ronly.
Great job calling him out on the Glenny book, vooch.

Got lots of pictures, but won't post any on line. Frankly, I am not all that internet savvy when it comes to HTML and stuff like that.
Howzabout this?
There's a little gas station at Konjevic Polje, at the end of the road in the Suceska Valley to Bratunac, and beyond that, Srebrenica. I forget what brand name the gas station is, but there's a half-built Serb Orthodox church across the street on the foundation of a demolished mosque. Beyond the church is a white two story ruin (used to be a hotel or something) spraypainted SSJ ARKAN.
As you drive into Bratunac, you pass what used to be the Vuk Karadzic School, since renamed. Infamous as a concentration camp during the early days of the war, its 600 victims (local, male Muslims involved in the community, the communist party, high school teachers, soccer coaches, etc) were almost all massacred, except for one, a former junior high school teacher who is now deputy mayor of the town.
Driving south from Bratunac you pass through some open fields, down a road that passes the Battery Factory (former UN headquarters) to your left, and a huge cemetery on the right, where the victims of the Srebrenica massacre are now laid out.
I helped plan that cemetery.
Across the field from the cemetery is a soccer field that is used for mass memorial ceremonies and soemtimes as a landing pad for SFOR helicopters.
You then pass the high school on your left, which still has a large shell hole in the middle of the basketball court. The shell that made it killed about twenty high school boys during the seige. Don't worry, their fathers don't mourn their deaths any more. Their fathers were very likely killed during the fall of the city which followed about 3 months later.
Continuing past, you enter into the town where you pass a huge Serb cemetery filled with glittery marble headstones. Straight ahead you see a huge pile of uninhabitable rubble (the former Srebrenica department store). To the right, the cultural center, used for community meetings even though 90% of its windows hadn't been replaced as of 2002. The TV station there was taken down by SFOR orders in 2001.
Take a sharp left at the wrecked shopping mall, up a small hill, and you're at a small hotel which was UN/SFOR HQ for Srebrenica until it was turned into a DP waystation right before I left.
Convinced?
If not, kiss my grits.

Even if I was internet savvy about posting pics, I wouldn't. I don't post war porn.
