- No, Bosnian Serbs would not kill their non-Serb neighbours without
- propaganda from Serbia "that all Serbs should live in one country".
- First massive killing of Bosnians in Bijeljina and Foca and all
- eastern Bosnia were carried out by Serbians (that is Sebs from Serbia).
- Ever heard about "White Eagles", Arkan, and other criminals,
- listed by the U.S. Secretary of State (former) as war criminals?
- They are not Bosnian Serbs. And true, the final price will pay
- Bosnian Serbs, while Arkan and Co will move on Kosovo and Macedonia.

- So, therefore you agree with my point that the U.S. should intervene
- sometimes (that is, bully other country), say in Bosnia even though
- it would not defend the U.S. This is a reference to your argument
- in your last post "that the U.S. should act only to defend itself
- rather than to bully other countries".
- Of course the invasion of Kuwait is improper: one better armed
- country invaded unarmed smaller country. So is the aggression
- of Serbia against another country B-H.

- Among ALL leaders in former Yugoslavia republics, Mr. Izetbegovic
- was the only one who was not member of the Communist party.
- Mr. Milosevic (Serbia), Bulatovic (Montenegro), Tudjman (Croatia),
- Kucan (Slovenia), Gligorov (Macedonia) held the highest positions
- in Communist Party.
