U-S, European intelligence agencies hunt for terrorists in Bosnia

Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina-AP -- The U-S is hunting for Islamic extremists in Bosnia.

An investigation by The Associated Press shows hundreds of agents from military intelligence and the C-I-A are tracking hundreds of suspected terrorists and working to shut off their funding.

The Americans are working out of a well-guarded compound in a suburb of Sarajevo.

One commander says Bosnia has become a way station for Islamic extremists, and a possible refuge.

A senior European intelligence operative says the international undercover effort is part of an "invisible but real struggle with the bad guys" that he says could stop bombings in Europe -- or the U-S.

Prepare to be told that your sources are no good, that you are a good for nothing Serbian nationalist, and that everything you know is wrong. Again, I say to you Allahu Ahkbar.

You actualy think al-Qaeda doesnt know what is up in Muslim run Bosnia? They know it better than we do. The reason this is kept secret is not to stop al-Qaeda but t protect reputations of the pro-Muslim politicians and policy wonks who got us into Bosnia on the Muslim side.

At the risk of pointing out the obvious, how do you think we got the info to shut off the various charity organizations which were operating in Bosnia or figured out that we needed to arrest the Algerians currently in Gitmo?

These guys have been on the job since 1995 when our troops went in country, with an ubeat in tempo following 9-11.

Please post away whenever you can. We can't read everything and get so caught up in Iraq that Bosnia doesn't get the attention it should.

Why ping them? We might as well cut/paste from all their prior posts going months back. They become tiresome, besides, in six weeks I will have fresh video and photos from Serbia-Republika Srpska. I'll stay away from the "Bosnian Muslim Army" base I accidently wandered on and nearly arrested but physically escorted off...:)

Go scratch... I have nothing against Serbs... I DO have a great deal against Milosevic and his thugs... If you can't see the difference, I feel sorry for you...

I don't want to be included in any balkan lists, and can choose to pop in and out as desired.

It's extremely biased, but they usually don't make things up on the fly. They're more likely to skew or spin a story, not likely to make it up altogether.
