Such as this from Interview Highlights Changing Situation in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Terrorist Escalation (From a Serbo-Croat language news magazine on October 6, 2003 ~ details of an interview in Belgrade with GIS Editor Gregory Copley regarding the situation in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and the links to terrorism.)

In one of your reports you claim that memorial center in Srebrenica, according to your Islamic sources, will become some kind of sanctuary for radical islamists in Europe . What kind of sanctuary?

Not a sanctuary, but a shrine around which Islamists have said they wish Muslims to rally. This would be the first Muslim "holy site" in Europe , and this is part of the Islamists’ stated view of bringing Islam into the heart of Europe , not as a part of a modern, multi-cultural Europe , but in a conquering sense.

Many Europeans would regard this as infeasible, but we have already seen the development of radical Islamic government – under Izetbegovic – literally initiating terrorism and terrorist bases and training within Europe . Now we see attempts, led in large part by Izetbegovic’s SDA, to transform southern Serbia ’s Raška region – which they call Sandzak – into a geographic link between BiH at the area of the Goražde Corridor with the Serbian province of Kosovo , which has largely been “cleansed” of Serbs, to Albania and the Adriatic .

This is a coherent geopolitical strategy. If it works, there would be no need for Montenegro to seek independence from the Serbia & Montenegro union; it would have already occurred, de facto. At that point, I would not give great odds for the future independence of Montenegro as a sovereign state.


Former US president Bill Clinton was present in Srebrenica at opening ceremony. What feedback had that back in US?

The impact of former Pres. Clinton’s visit to Srebrenica is only just beginning to be felt in the US . At first it was thought that it was merely a visit to express his fondness for the Bosnian Muslims, but now that knowledge of his links with Izetbegovic and the payment of $250,000 for the visit by the SDA is becoming known, more questions are being raised.
