SARAJEVO (AFP) - Bosnian authorities are investigating rape allegations against retired Canadian General Lewis MacKenzie, who commanded UN peacekeepers in Bosnia at the start of the 1992-95 war, an official said. ADVERTISEMENT

"We have the testimonies of women that he visited the detention camp several times and was not only witnessing, but also participating, in rapes there," Sarajevo county prosecutor Oleg Cavka told AFP.

He was referring to the detention camp called "Sonja" in the Sarajevo suburb of Vogosca where Bosnian Serb forces forcibly imprisoned non-Serb women, notably Muslims, and forced them to be their sex slaves.

Cavka refused to disclose the number of MacKenzie's alleged victims, but added police had been collecting evidence since 1998 against MacKenzie, who commanded the UN peacekeepers until August 1992.

"He has not been indicted since under the law no one can be indicted before he has been questioned," Cavka said.

Bosnian authorities have asked Canada for permission to interview MacKenzie on several occasions, but have received no reply, he added.

MacKenzie was replaced in Bosnia after he criticized the UN's role there.

I do feel compassion and sorrow for muslim women in general, because all they are to their male counterparts are sex slaves wrapped in burlap bags, with two slits so they can see their rapists.

Alegations against general MacKenzie by Muslims started when he slamed UN in Bosnia claimed that Muslims have staged most of TV killing of Muslims by themselves, like Markale incident, and with as he said wast support by UN and CNN that gave support to Muslims.

Major attack on general MacKenzie started when he dissmissed claims about genocide over Muslims and when he disputed numbers of killed Muslims at Srebrenica, claimed that number is inflated and much, lower than Muslims said.

He was sacked when started critisizing UN role in Bosnia, saying that UN was practicaly on Muslims side.

most reacentley he accused UN for sheltering Hizbollah in Lebenon thus provoking israelis to momb UN building. He gave support to Israeli actions in Lebanon.

These tactics are TYPICAL of the "Bosnian" islamists, who are the champions of taqqia in the muslim world!!!!

The number of Americans--especially politicians, "human rights" activists, and "mainline" protestant clergy--who believe that these miscreants (even Izetbegovic and the Sacirbegovics/Sacirbeys) are "moderates" and "innocent victims" is a testimony to their success in promoting the big islamic lie!!!!

It is real easy when you have a press that has the main objective to make the Serbs look as though they are killing "innocent" muslims every chance they get. The only reason the Serbs are seen as the enemy is because they are Christian.

the UN is just about as evil an organization that one can even begin to understand. The agendas are linked to the CFR and the RIIA in England. All are on the same agenda...........

Given the Muslim history in the region (WWII?), we are expected to believe that ONLY Serbs committed crimes? The UN will NEVER investigate any Muslim crimes because 1) there are too many Muslim countries in the UN), and 2) we know what happens when you accuse Muslims of anything. They riot, murder, rape, burn and rape.

I am in Paris today. Disturbing to see the angry Muslims on the Metro as if saying to themselves "Our day is approaching." And they wonder why there are so hated. An article in the stinking Int Herald Trib on "Where is the Islamic Luther?" meaning that Islam is set for a reformation (HAH!) and that Islamic women want freedom. Say, try switching to Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, etc.

:) Their day is approaching, they just don't know what the day will bring. It's one of those, "be careful what you wish for, you just might get it". The Muslim's are the wind up toy, the One worlders are the winders. For Islam; it was wound up in the beginning.
