Family in Bosnia describes Utah gunman as child of war and upheaval

TALOVICI, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) - Relatives of the Bosnian teen who shot and killed five people in a Salt Lake City mall said the boy's early life was marked by war and upheaval: The family fled Serb forces on foot when he was 4 and his grandfather was killed in the war. Sulejman Talovic was a toddler when fighting broke out in Bosnia in 1992. Serb troops laid siege to the hamlet of Talovici in northeastern Bosnia, bombing it for a year before overrunning his home village in March 1993. ''We were besieged and bombed day and night. We couldn't stick our noses out of the house,'' Talovic's cousin, Redzo Talovic, 59, recalled Thursday.

''At first we all hid from the shells, but later we gave up on life, didn't care and started coming out. That's how ... the shelling killed 20 people in the village,'' he said.

Young Sulejman, his three siblings, his mother Sabira and grandfather made the difficult journey on foot to Srebrenica, while his father, Suljo, hid in the mountains with other men from the village, relatives said.

''Many left the village, only a few made it,'' said Murat Avdic, 54, a family friend.

I found this website linked to another blog about the real Bosnian Islamists' horrific atrocities against Christian Serbs in the early '90s.

Warning. VERY GRAPHIC PHOTOS

The Real Srebrenica Genocide

Scroll down and you will see that Clinton was complicit in supporting the Islamists' atrocities against Chrisitans. One has to wonder if this connection was part of the documents that Sandy "Burglar" stole from the National Archives.

And the same goes for the MSM who is busily covering up this atrocity.
