"Islam, our religion today, your religion tomorrow."

The same sign could have been held up in America.

Sounds like it's time to revitalize the crusades?

Bosnia has become al Qaeda's corridor into Europe. An example is that a main terrorist in the Madrid bombing was born in Bosnia. While the Clinton administration fawned over the Bosnian government of Alija Izetbegovic, his embassy in Vienna issued Osama bin Laden a passport in 1992, as reported in a Nov. 1, 2001, article in the Wall Street Journal titled, "Al Qaeda's Balkan links." It said, "For the past 10 years, the most senior leaders of al Qaeda have visited the Balkans, including bin Laden himself and on three occasions between 1994 and 1996." The Washington Times also reported as recently as last Dec. 1 that the "Balkans are seen as terrorist training ground."

The Sept. 1, 1996, New York Times reported: " 'If you read President Izetbegovic's writings, as I have, there is no doubt that he is an Islamic fundamentalist,' said a senior Western diplomat with long experience in the region. 'He is a very nice fundamentalist, but he is still a fundamentalist. This has not changed. His goal is to establish a Muslim state in Bosnia, and the Serbs and Croats understand this better than the rest of us." Saudi Arabia wanted the first Islamic nation in the heart of Europe, and the Clinton administration wanted cheap oil and Saudi money. In 1995, Saudi Arabia signed a letter of intent to buy $6 billion of Boeing aircraft. The day after NATO bombed the Serbs on a trumped up self-inflicted atrocity committed by Bosnian Muslim forces at Sarajevo's main market, the Saudis signed on the dotted line. A coincidence? I don't think so.

President Bush accuses Iran of sending weapons and mujahideen into Iraq, yet there was no outrage when Mr. Clinton approved Iran's sending in Islamic fighters against Christian Serbs. A Senate Republican Policy Committee report of 1997 describes the Iranian involvement in Bosnia as the "stepping-stone to Europe: The intended targets of the mujahideen network in Bosnia are not limited to that country but extend to Western Europe."

A 1992 report, "Iran's European springboard?" for the Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare, House Republican Research Committee, outlined Iran's plan to establish an Islamic state in the heart of Europe.

Thank you Bill Clinton - we love your legacy...

The real tragedy is all the suffering, bloodshed and deaths in this conflict might never have occurred had it not been for our State Department's meddling when the three Bosnian leaders representing Croats, Muslims and Serbs endorsed a proposal that the republic be a confederation of three ethnic regions. Then our U.S. ambassador to Yugoslavia, Warren Zimmermann, told President Izetbegovic, representing the Muslim party of Bosnia, that if he didn't like it, why sign it? Though the Lisbon Agreement was the best opportunity to achieve peace, it was primarily the State Department official's misguided advice to the Bosnian president that encouraged Mr. Izetbegovic not to sign the agreement he originally accepted in Lisbon, a decision which made the war inevitable.



What a maroon for a diplomat.
