I’m a bit skeptical.
To be perfectly blunt,Taylor sounds as if he were (knowingly or unknowingly)spreading disinformation that may be used by some to “pre-justify” forthcoming violence.
We should all be "a bit skeptical" of all reports. Yet, Taylor has little motivation to "spread disinformation" --he is a Canadian, not a Serb and not married to one. Yet after having followed the Balkans for as long as he has -- and as many of us have -- not much is surprising in the dirty deals that have been done in the Balkans, anymore.
Frankly, I wouldn't be at all surprised if what he is saying is absolutely true. But time will tell.
