Sigh. Why does it always come back to Bill?
Actually, I think we've been waffling on Islamics for far too many years - they should never have been allowed to get away with the many bombings and kidnappings committed against U.S. properties and citizens in the Middle East - but Bill certainly put it over the top, sending U.S. troops off to further their agenda.
No attempt was made to hide such atrocities. In fact, Gen. Oric would often address the media at the site of the massacres. On one such occasion, while standing in front of mujahedeen displaying decapitated human heads as trophies, Gen. Oric pointed to a smouldering building in ruins and proudly announced to reporters, "We blew those Serbs to the moon."
Alija Izetbegovic was also proud to display the fighting prowess of his mujahedeen volunteers. Following a successful attack against Serbian positions around Vozuce on Sept. 10, 1995, the Bosnian president held a televised medal presentation. Mujahedeen warriors had served as the vanguard of the assault force, and were awarded 11 decorations for valour, including the Golden Crescent, Bosnia's highest honour.
Two comments:
1) note that Hoplite tries to discredit Taylor by trying to confuse the issue of Oric's execution squads and refugees....but never adresses the central fact....that Oric showed videos of his beheaded victims.
2) note that the highest military honor of the moderate, multi-ethnic allies of Hoplite's Humanitarian Warriors is the Golden Cresent . Simply yet another sign pointing to the fundamentalist nature of Iztbegovic's regime. ( a regime effectively created by Clintonistas)
=============
Hoplite, unlike you Taylor has been to the area many times and witnessed the events he describes first hand.
