the majority of the graves are so-called secondary and tertiary graves -- where the initial site was dug up and reburied in secret, second and third locations.

The same technique worked pretty well for the Serbs in both Bosnia and Kosovo. Its been nine years since the Srebrenica massacre. And although the Kosovo conflict was five years ago, the Serbs are still in the process of returning the murdered Albanians they hid in Serbia proper. Milosevic's buddy Hussein had it much easier hiding a few WMD, but we'll eventually find those, too.

Cavic says war crimes were committed | 18:13 June 23 | FoNet

BANJALUKA -- Wednesday – Republic of Srpska President Dragan Cavic said today in a statement to the Commission for Incidents in Srebrenica that war crimes were committed by the Serbian military in Srebrenica in July of 1995.

Cavic said that there is no forgiving those people who committed these war crimes and that the period between July 10 and 19, 1995 will forever be a dark page in the history of the Serbian people.

"Those who committed these crimes in the name of their country or in the name of God have shamed both members of their nationality and their religion." said Covic in a television interview addressing the public.

Still looking for evidence of the U.N. reported 10s of thousands of murders. We already know the U.N. is a master of the lie.

I beg to differ. Various people have made high claims, but specific estimates have never reached into the tens of thousands. At the end of the conflict, the final authoritative estimate was made by British Foreign Office Minister Geoff Hoon, who stated that around 10,000 ethnic Albanians had been killed.

Not from the UN:

This grave is one of 32 that the Republika Srpska (RS) authorities acknowledged recently

Guess I was wrong about the Bosnia/Kosovo war. Still can't help wondering how many of these bodies were combatants, how many were collateral damage, and how many were actually executed. Also guess my skepticizism regarding any conflict involving Muslims contiues to color my judgment.

You could draw a parallel to our bombing of Dresden, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki as war crimes. What's the difference from knowingly killing civilians at 20,000 feet as opposed to killing them up close for supporting a known enemy? Tough call. However, I'm proud to know that the US makes every attempt to spare non-combatants, when possible.

"Workers said they expect to find about 15 bodies here in the reddish mud -- bodies of civilians killed during the 1995 Srebrenica massacre..."

First off, EXPECT doesn't mean they've actually even found any. Then, there's IDENTIFICATION. Finally, they are claiming the bodies are civilians when other propaganda on this claims they are SOLDIERS. This is a propaganda piece. Much sensationalism, but NO IDENTITIES AND AUTOPSY REPORTS.

If they waited until identifications and autopsies they'd never have even one story. Meanwhile Serbs have been identified and autopsied with the name of the doctor who performed the autopsy, yet those stories don't make the news.

Please show me, where in this report, they have ACTUALLY found a body (much less identified one)? The word EXPECT is used: they "expect" to find 15 bodies. But is it a wild goosechase? Could there be Serbs there, IF any are there. They sure make a case of demonization already without any actual evidence: names and autopsies.

They have a dozen men digging in mud and all sorts of ominous speculation, the hallmark of propaganda.

So, prove there is a Muslim body found in this story. Give a name?

1,373 have been identified.

Very interesting that they do not say identified as who Were they Serbs or foreign Mujaheddin? Were they killed or died out of natural casues? Why this secrecy?

I can't see where they have as yet even found a body, much less identified it. Notice how the story says they "expect" to find 15 bodies. Isn't it propaganda to claim there are 15 Muslims there when they haven't found a body, and even then, not waiting until names are confirmed? This shows how the media promotes propaganda against the Serbs.

The Serbs have found mass graves of Serbs and have identified nearly them all - for example, in Mrkonjic Grad in Bosnia which the Croat military held for awhile - yet the press didn't report that, much less speculate already when any digging was started. There were about 180 Serbs killed there, most without any identity papers and many even without their shoes, yet almost all were identified.

How this "estimate" can be "final authoritative" one if it is made by the side in the war? Even with NATO bombing the number of Serbs and Albanians killed in Kosovo was smaller. And last but not the least there were few Albanians around Srebrenica (which is not in Kosovo).

That's alleged to be in Serbia. You have the names of those there? I didn't think so.

I always side with those who are forced to fight the Mohammedan Jihad.

I never bet on black. Muslims have the black flag. I never bet on Muslims and I never am stupid enough to back their cause. Go do a google search.

I looked and it seems likely that they are bodies of Serbs. Your point is?
