I lived in Bosnia for two and a half years. Every time I travelled through the Republika Srpska I encountered hate propaganda: SU MA SRPSKA, SMRT MUSILIMANSAMI, the Four-C Swastika (no, I *don't* mean sister-in-law), etc, spraypainted every-damn-where. Nowhere in the Federation did I *ever* see anything similar (with the exception of the WELCOME TO REPUBLIKA SRPSKA signs I saw covered in red paint).

Stavka2, who served in Bosnia, claimed the Croats marked their properties with Swastikas. Do you say otherwise?

I never saw it, but that's not saying much; the American sector has very few Croats (maybe 10% of the population). One DID see swastikas, but generally either in Serbia or on the Welcome-to-Republika-Srpska signs as I described earlier. In the Bosnia context the German swastika means a generalized "eff-you" more than anything else.

First off, the 4 C "swastika" show's the poster's intent. The 4 Cs are cyrillic Ss and mean that Serbs will servive only through unity, and are in the four cornors of a Christian cross.

The Croats in Tuzla had fresh swastikas, about a meter and a half painted on each of their houses. They also flew only the Croatian (ok, this was in the villages) flag and accepted only Croatian gelder. As for the nice Musli, who constantly claimed to love everyone, there were only musli prayer rooms on their posts. When I asked one Islamo Lt what did none musli get for religious support in the Bosnian national army, I was told: "Not our problem, they don't get shit and thats that." Also, loved all the Islamo trash mujahadjin walking around...we had to keep track of Orec and the Iranians and the Afghans and the rest, couldn't touch though. They even let the Egyptian freighter (flying Ukrainian colors) in with its load of T-55 tanks.

Hell, they even tried to blow up the Pope when he came to visit Sarjevo....but the West still kept kissing the kindly ole Islamo arse...not much different then what it does today. That's when my respect for Western culture flushed down the toilet.
