A BOSNIAN Serb commission investigating the 1995 Srebrenica massacre presented a list today with the names of more than 7000 Muslim victims, admitting for the first time the scale of Europe's worst atrocity since World War II.
"I am confirming that the number (of victims) is higher than 7000. I cannot reveal the exact figures. It is up to the government to do it," an official said on condition of anonymity.
In June the Bosnian Serb government admitted for the first time that Serb forces had committed the massacre and tried to cover up the crime, but it avoided giving a definite figure on the number of victims.
On September 10, 2001 I would have felt awful. Today I feel that it wasn't nearly enough.
Yes but hundreds of thousands of Muslims murdered under Saddamn is OK. Hypocrits.
bfd
3000 Americans were massacred by Muslims in one day. Not a peep from the Europeans.
Well, it's a start.
one of my other Bosnian co-workers showed me pictures of his bombed out church, and told stories of parents willing to sell their children, because if someone had money--they could at least afford to feed the children and the babies wouldn't starve.
I would not go so far as to say that Clinton got us on the wrong side in that war. I can't see us supporting a Serbian government that was massacring Muslims. On the other hand, the result of our involvement is that now the Serbs are being massacred. I can't see why that is better.
We should have just stayed out.
Umm? (Scratches) (Yawns) Really? That right? (Yawns)
Gee, that's too bad. (Yawns again) (Scratches again)
Really, I'm all torn up about it. (Smirk)
Out of the supposed 7000 massacred, I'll bet 6000 were Islamists!!
With all due respect, it's not just "now". The Muslims in Yugoslavia have been killing massacring, raping, burning churches, etc for hundreds of years. It pretty much stopped under communism & Tito, but resumed upon his death.
And when Slobo sent the Army in, it was only AFTER the mass murdering by the Muslims was already out of control. That fact was reported at the time, but then 'deep-sixed' when it became politically incorrect. I even remember watching a 60 Minutes piece on how the Christians were being slaughtered by their once peaceful Muslim next door neighbors.
An aside, I firmly belive that Klintoon backed the Muslims and terrorist KLA to APPEASE the terorists in general and Osama Bin Laden in particular.
"Hey, don't attack us, we're on YOUR side. Look we're arming the KLA and killing those evil Christian Serbs."
This is Slobodan Milosevic, an innocent man being tried by a so-called International Criminal Tribunal in the Hague, Holland, presumably for attempting to deport (or ethnically cleanse) albanian islammites from a Serbian province for barbaric conduct over a protracted period of time.
One assumes that the Dutch are practicing to try themselves for ethnic cleansing and genocide, since they themselves are now beginning to expell muslims from their own country, also for barbaric conduct over a protracted period of time.
One can only assume that barbaric conduct over protracted periods of time is a sort of an islammite specialty.
Now, one way to prevent yourself from being charged with hypocricy, is to start torturing people. For the same reason that nobody would ever charge Al Capone with shoplifting, nobody would ever charge somebody like Adolf Eichman or Joseph Mengele with hypocrisy.
Now, in an American courtroom, that would be the instantaneous end of the trial and the prosecutor's career (doing anything other than washing dishes in the courtroom cafeteria) right there.
Thus there should be a question of how Americans would want to be associated with this process even before you consider the fact that Americans soundly reject the entire premise of the ICC and have gone as far as to pass a law requiring the president of the United States to use military force to rescue any American being held by that "tribunal". In other words, Holland would face the armed might of the United States military were it to try to do to any American what it is doing to Milosevic.
It's a start. Ping me when it gets into the seven digit range, will ya?
God Bless the Serbians, maybe we should let them deal with Terrorism.
