Perhaps if you are so concerned about private property you can explain how it is that the mostly rural Serb populations (they being farmers, mostly, and owning all the farmland so we've been told here on F.R.) felt it was necessary to boot non-Serbs out of the cities?

Wait, wait, don't tell me... those cities were built on old Serb farmlands so there was ample justification for the ethnic cleansing campaigns carried out in the cities in the Republika Srpska.

Whatever. Neither logic nor law are on your side in this matter, but thanks for trying.

Do you mean towns like Mostar, Sarajevo or towns where genocide against Serbs was commited in WWII, like Srebrenica? Or villages along Drina, or villages in Kozara mountains?

Do you know that in Herzegovina, after WWII, the first conscripts of Serbian nationality went to complete military duty in 1958? All born before 1940 were wiped out in WWII by friendly Croatian and Muislim neigbors?

(Picture is reproduction of SS recruitment poster that can be found on neonazi site that glorifies Bosnian WWII Nazis, Croatians and Muslims alike.

In Bosnia-Herzegovina, atrocities happened on all sides in 1990's war. No angels there. All responsible for crimes should pay.The problem with Serbs is that some fell to the level of their Croatian and Muslim neighbors, unpunished and unrepented Nazis from WWII.

Golda Meir's thought can be applied to Bosnian Serbs. ("we can forgive Croats and Muslims for killing our children, but can not forgive them for forcing us to kill theirs.)

Some Serbs became animals the same as their Muslim neigbors and that is moral dimension of Serbian defeat in Bosnia.

I feel that speaking of moral issues with you is like appealing to mercy with loan shark, but at least I try.

Mirracles do happen.

Again, Hoplie poses as a great intellectual - by asking what appears to be a tough question. But all is simple: those in towns decided that all the land around an Islamoc state. What the heck islamic state is - visit USA-feed and backed Talibanese Afghan.

Come back (in one piece) and keep squeeking about Serbs who do not wish to live in islamic state.
