Perhaps you can explain the attacks on Bijeljina and Visegrad, where in both instances the Serb forces used crossed the Drina from Serbia prior to attacking those cities.

Better yet, explain how Milosevic didn't supply the BSA with equipment, supplies, and personnel (we have one Freeper here who's family took him out of Serbia so he wouldn't be drafted into the Bosnian war from Serbia) by explaining who did.

Sorry, Serbia invaded Bosnia just like it invaded Croatia one year earlier.

Did the Bosnian Croats accept Lisbon? No.

What have you been smoking? Izetbegovic, Boban and Karadzic all signed. Resorting to bluffs, are we Hoppie? Tsk, tsk, you're looking as bad as the ICTY.

Did Lisbon produce a map agreed to by all three of the parties? No.

The geographic area for each group was established. In any case, we're not discussing cartography.

Did the JNA transfer units from Croatia into Bosnia prior to April of 1992? Yes.

Prior to April of 1992 Bosnia was still a republic of Yugoslavia. So what is wrong with the Jugoslav National Army repositioning within Yugoslav borders?

Did Serbia serve as a springboard for the attacks on Eastern Bosnia in 1992? Yes.

Did Croatia serve as a springboard? Yes. Your point is?

These are a no win arguments for you, Bob.

I'll agree with that one - most discussions with you seem to be a waste of time. However, if you wanna play Q&A, I've got a few for you:

Did the Yugoslav constitution establish the criteria for a repbulic seceding from the federal government? Yes.

Was Bosnia able to meet those criteria? No.

Did some Bosnian Muslims continue to arm themselves and pursue independence by force? Yes.

Did Izetbegovic sign the Lisbon agreement, which agreed to partition Bosnia into 3 autonomous regions and avoided a civil war? Yes.

Shortly after meeting with U.S. Ambassador Warren Zimmerman, did Izetbegovic withdraw his signature to the treaty? Yes.

If Bosnian Muslims can illegally secede from Yugoslavia in the name self determination, shouldn't Bosnian Serbs be given the same prerogative to secede from Bosnia and remain in Yugoslavia? Yes.
