I seriously doubt it. 1) Combat deaths were extremely low - the simple fact is neither the Bosniak Muslims nor the Serbs fielded very effective armies. 2) Of the over 7,000 men known to have “disappeared” - any of those since found have been found dead, shot in the head or back or beaten to death, with their hands died behind their back, etc.
“If the Muslims were really worried about genocide, they certainly wouldn’t have left their women and children to the mercy of the Bosnia Serb army!”
Oh, so the Bosniacs should have known the Serbs would act like scum from before hand you’re saying? Gee, that’s a novel defense of the Serbs: Since the Serbs would commit mass murder, the Bosniacs should have known this ahead of time, because they - afterward - would be upset by acts of mass murder committed by the Serbs. Brilliant.
If you watch the video tape of Ratko Mladic on youtube and elsewhere, he SPECIFICALLY tells 30,000 Bosniacs “protected” by the Dutch UN Peacekeepers that they would be safe. His troops - and there’s film of this too - had Bosniacs call their fighters down from the hills to surrender to the Serbs (as in the infamous case of the father of Nermin). Those men were then murdered by the Serbs. This should be the film of the father calling to Nermin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdZ368y_6DI&feature=related
“Srebrenica was a armed camp used by the Muslims to terrorize the surrounding population!”
1) I doubt it was anything other than a Bosniac stronghold fighting Serbs surrounding it. 2) No matter what it was there is no excuse for murdering over 7,000 captured and disarmed men.
Disarmed by whom? Many died in the infighting among the muslim troops retreating to Tuzla, were they "disarmed"? Oh please...
