Bingo. You nailed it right there.
Wrong. A PW (Prison of War) are enemy personnel,in or out of uniform, who carry arms openly. Where does it say that battle-field executions are legally justified?
Does your link have any malware? Can you ascertain this?
Why did Popeyes chicken cross the road?
You recall how many times the muslims staged attacks onto their own population? Why doesnt this shock me the muslims "wore Serbian/BSA uniforms" like they have done in the past and "videotaped" this act?
Like I said: Not our idea of justice but maybe the headhunter jihadis had it coming, eh?
"...the leaders of the KLA liquidated their political opponents; old blood feuds were settled, and Albanian civilians were executed by the Albanians themselves.."
rules of war.
enemy spies or sabateurs NOT in military uniform can be shot without a trial.
are NOT prisoners of war, and have no 'geneva convention' protections.
get over it.
fwiw... all deaths on the battle field ARE battle-field executions, spies or not, uniforms or not.
WAR is hell.
KILL The bad guys.
In this case, the muslims.... again.
I refer you to post #83.
Your assertions are demonstrably incorrect.
As for the rest of your post, my thoughts on Srebrenica are these:
Nowhere near 7,000 were executed...most were killed in the running battles during the retreat to ABiH lines around Kladanj...at most, 2,000 were executed after being captured.
The Serbs were out for revenge for the attacks committed by Oric's Torbashi, in and around Srebrenica, where they used UN Safe Haven status to conduct raids into Serb villages.
nah they are correct.
line em up, and let em have it.
you are debating with some folks, like me, who don't care a rip about your muslim buddies. NOT A RIP.
these guys are just a handful of dead al quaida we don't have to worry about later.
and don't bother telling me, 'the al quaida weren't in this region' because your supposed facts don't square with reality.
islam is incompatible with civilization.
and so are it's defenders.
tell somebody who cares or believes islamist lies to the dhimmis.
I don't.
Most americans don't either.
eventually it is very very likely that your meccan black rock will become a smoking crater... and islamics will be forcibly converted planet wide.
both steps would advance humnanity by light years.
Its a religion of murder.
Excellent - when confronted with evidence to the contrary, simply disregard it and wax ignorant some more.
No worries Robert, I won't waste anymore of your time.
"ARTICLE 2 In addition to the provisions which shall be implemented in peace time, the present Convention shall apply to all cases of declared war or of any other armed conflict which may arise between two or more of the High Contracting Parties, even if the state of war is not recognized by one of them.
The Convention shall also apply to all cases of partial or total occupation of the territory of a High Contracting Party, even if the said occupation meets with no armed resistance.
Although one of the Powers in conflict may not be a party to the present Convention, the Powers who are parties thereto shall remain bound by it in their mutual relations. They shall furthermore be bound by the Convention in relation to the said Power, if the latter accepts and applies the provisions thereof."
Did any of the waring parties sign the Geneva Accords?
Was the Bosnian Government a defacto signatory as one of the succesor states of Yugoslavia?
thanks.
That would be Jesus. Any self appointed court is welcome to tell us what it thinks is justice, and to try to enforce it too, if they want to die, which they are free to. And when I see injustice anywhere, I'm free to kill the bastards or to call on my government - which is my delegated agent for such matters - to do so. Anyone confused on this point is welcome to try crossing me. There is no impunity for injustice anywhere in the world, not in the stars or in states. I've signed no contract pledging I won't kill or remove tyrants wherever I find them, whenever it suits me, and neither have the rest of the American people. I have no obligations whatever to any foreign government. Not to let them oppress their neighbors, not to let them oppress their citizens, not to leave them alone. I can and will get in their face whenever I jolly well please. And if they don't like it, they can take it up with the Marine corps.
You bring up some great points.
I hope the scarcasm makes you feel better. Sorry, if you don't like what he said - but there is nothing I can do about that. He said what he said, and it had the effect on me that I posted.
BTW, the reference to 'your Bosnian fighter' is simply childish.
It is a fact that Bosnian Muslims committed gruesome atrocities against Bosnian Serbs, but I have yet to see ONE Muslim stand trial.
It is not politically correct to investigate these crimes, I guess. The image of Bosnian Muslim 'angels' has to remain untarnished.
These executed Muslims were on a lits of criminals - they operated in gang of headhunters. They were the ones rounded up and rightly executed. The vast majority of the Muslim soldiers killed in Srebrenica were killed on their version of Kuwait's highway of death - shelled and ambushed as they retreated.
