I don't believe anybody here is denying that bad things happened to Serbs in Bosnia or Croatia in the 1990's, Joan - the ICTY has persecuted individuals who committed crimes at Celebici.

There is a reason the ITN team wasn't allowed unsupervised access to Omarska and Trnopolje, Joan - it has to do with Arkan in Bijeljina and Goran Jelisic in Brcko: The Serbs who were working to make greater Serbia didn't do to well with people photographing the actual work of making an ethnically pure state.

Even the dog and pony shows they put on, like the ITN trip to Trnopolje and Omarska smack of German footage of soup kitchens in Warsaw after it was taken - huh, there's that Nazi thing again.

To compare 2 things they must have equal properties, otherwise it is logical fallacy. By implying that Omarska and Belsen differed only in the number of the dead you engage in an act of Holocaust revisionism because this HIDES THE HORRENDOUS NATURE OF BELSEN CONCENTRATION CAMP.

If Omarska was like Belsen on a smaller scale, then Belsen was like Omarska, only on larger scale.

If one is not familiar what BELSEN looked like but trusts your opinion and reads the Omarska judgement to get an idea how Belsen looked like, he or she may draw conclusion that:

1. Belsen was detention camp and there were no children prisoners in Belsen. Anne Frank must be wrong or exageration.

2. Belsen occured during civil war and Jews made concentration camps for Germans the same way Germans made for Jews.

3. Belsen prisoners were fed the same food as German Army, only in smaller quantities and once a day. Starvation and "You don't eat, you don't shit" must be exageration of the British forces.

And so on. The worst part is that your opinion mirrors that of liberal establishment. Really disturbing to think about it - we have Nazi revisionism built into the school curricula.

In 20 years, kids will believe that Jews were taken to the gas chambers in air conditioned busses.

In 50 years, people will say "BELSEN WAS A LIE, JUST LIKE BOSNIA".

That's what liberal lies are all about - about revivng Nazism under another name.
