@thisaccountwashacked666 That was staged by the Bosnian Muslims. Even the UN officers testified that the Bosnian Muslims forces, which were larger, staged attacks and sniped at both civilians and the UN in Sarajevo.

Bosnian Muslims were decapitating Sarajevo Serb civilians and throwing their bodies down Kazani gorge.

The Bosnian Muslims population rose percentage-wise during the war which shows they ethnically cleansed and killed the others (Croats and Serbs) more than happened to them. They had the largest army in BiH. They outnumbered the Bosnian Serb forces by 5 times. Meanwhile Croatia had 10s of thousands of their soldiers in BiH the entire war. There was also different factions of Bosnian Muslims who fought each other. It was a 4-way civil war.

Srebrenica was mostly military dead as it was a huge Bosnian Muslim army base. Rwanda was pure civilians and mostly women and children. The fact that most of the Srebrenica deaths were military aged men should be a clue that they are counting the military who died in the fighting. Srebrenica was an arranged fall with the army and men leaving to Tuzla (city northwest of Srebrenica) days before the "fall". The men were ordered out by their own brigade commanders when the Serbs weren't even there. They had a lot of mined territory to walk through and there were running battles on the way to Tuzla as they were going through Serbian villages. But most of the army is said to have arrived intact, and thousands of "missing Srebrenica men" were on the Tuzla's voters' list in 1996. OSCE voters list.

Srebrenica was a Bosnian Muslim military base - they had an entire brigade there (and other forces as well) - which carried out a scorched-earth policy on the Serb villages all aroun. They are counting their soldiers who died in the entire war, as well as the soldiers who died from running battles and mines on the trek to Tuzla. The army and men were ordered out by their own brigade commanders when the Serbs weren't even there. The Serbs didn't go to Srebrenica until days later after they heard rumors/reports that the army had left. It was an arranged fall. The top Srebrenica commanders went to Tuzla 3 months before the "fall" and didn't return in the intervening time.

They probably couldn't speak your language.

"Not my turn to die" Savo Heleta - a Serb teen who lived in Gorazde, with his family, was tormented, put in a camp and starved and then had to escape by going through the Drina river in the middle of winter.

@Sakhi_BH Alija Izetbegovic planned this after Tito's death. He and several other Bosniaks were tried and jailed for seeking help from terrorist groups against Yugoslavia.

@abvideoactive Muslims and Croats kept Serbs in grain silo concentration camps, such as the silo at Tarcin where Muslims kept 600 Serb civilians throughout the war. Croats and Muslims had many joint and separate camps, and when they turned against each other, they put each other in the camps where they held Serbs. There were also Muslim camps for each other, as you had Fikret Abdic and his army fighting against the Sarajevo government forces. From what I saw the largest numbers of POWs were these Muslim camps against each other.

@BosnianV1nie No, Ukraine sent arms to the Bosnian Muslims and Croats.

@sabinasb2445 No. The Ukrainians fought on the Croats' side and some of the UN Ukrainians helped smuggle arms to the Bosnian Muslims.

@Theplanettera Yet Srebrenica was Serbian majority before WWI. Before WWI the Schutzkorps which "predominantly recruited among the Bosniak population" "was known for its part in the persecution of Serbs. They particularly targeted Serb populated areas of eastern Bosnia." So that is how the Muslims got majority in those areas in the first place. Srebrenica's commander, Naser Oric, killed a Serbian judge in Srebrenica at the beginning of the war, and other Serbs were decapitated. A Muslim who witnessed Oric detailing how he killed the judge and also eye witnessing other Serbs being killed (and there would be crowds gathering around when Serbs were killed) wanted to testify at Oric's trial, and even went there to testify, but was not allowed/called to testify. The whole trial was a sham as they didn't allow any evidence or testimony against Naser Oric, and instead wasted the whole trial on what OTHERS in Srebrenica did to Serbs, particularly the abuse of Serb prisoners/captives in Srebrenica's jails. So they ended up giving Oric a light sentence for "command responsibility" on the abuse and murder of Serb prisoners by prison guards and others INSTEAD of his actual murders of Serbs and destruction of Serb villages by him and the 28th Brigade.

@Theplanettera Bosnian Muslims and Croats were preparing for the war for over a years before it started, with many Bosnian Muslims training and participating in Croatia's war against its Serb population. They started as allies but then turned against each other - one of the reasons was the Muslims taking most of the weapons for themselves, killing Catholic Friars and other religious and also having a plan for putting BiH under Muslim domination. Alija Izetbegovic said himself that Islam couldn't co-exist in the same state with other religions. He meant that it had to rule and dominate. Once Croats started realizing this was what the Izetbegovic government was fighting for, the Croats and Muslims turned against each other for the Croat-Muslim war. Croats and Muslims then started putting each other in the same camps they had jointly or separately kept and abused Serbs. Their war was most intense in southern and central BiH, but in certain other areas they stayed cooperating during the war. The US and west pressured Croatia to keep the weapons pipeline into BiH open, which they did, even when Bosniaks were killing Serbs because the Croats would skim 10% of the weaponry for themselves. And US eventually got them united again after the Washington Accords. The US was using them against Serbs. The Bosnian Muslims and Croats are proxies of foreign powers, and pretty much always have been.

@amirdervisevic1487 UN and expert reports which showed the attacks came from Bosniak positions were squashed by Madeleine Albright. Further, the UN was kept out of areas that the Bosniak forces used, and the UN didn't know Bosniaks had positions there, so these areas were left out of the calculations which prevented correct reports.

@herceg6772 Bosniaks had torture camps such as Celebici and many others. Bosniaks and Croats put each other in the camps where they had kept Serbs when they turned on each other. There were also different factions of Bosniaks, such as those of Fikret Abdic, a moderate Muslim. Izetbegovic's Muslims had camps for Abdic's Muslims and Abdic's Muslims had camps for the Izetbegovic/government forces.

@Bosniak333 The Bosniak 28th Brigade has a scorched-earth policy on the Serb villages all around Srebrenica and had destroyed scores by the end of summer 1992 alone. Bosniaks even mutilated and killed Serbs' livestock which shows it wasn't about food, but making it impossible for Serbs to live there.

@adnankamen6470 Bosniaks were a special project of Himmler who formed divisions with them. In WWI they were on the Axis powers and were slaughtering Serbs. They also killed Serbs before WWI as part of the Schutzkorps.

@hasibhakanovic6682 There's a difference but DNA showed that Bosniaks and Serbs are closer than are Bosniaks and Croats. For each marker tested, the Serbs or Bosniaks fall in the middle, but never the Croats.

@Theplanettera But from 1992 to 1995 they did have a scorched-earth policy on the Serbs villages all around Srebrenica. Also that military and men left for Tuzla days before the fall. They were ordered by their brigade commanders when Serbs weren't even there nor coming. Plus the Serb forces were much smaller. So this large army with excellent defensive terrain was ordered off their positions and then to go to Tuzla. It was an arranged fall. The Serbs came days later after hearing reports about the Muslim army being gone. They drove in from the South. Serbs didn't surround Srebrenica, simply drove in from the South as the army and men had already gone. The UN had ordered the others to their base in Potocari, and when Serbs arrived, days later, the UN requested the Serbs take them to Tuzla. The Serbs sent buses with civilian bus drivers who drove them to the Tuzla airport. Meanwhile the men had a lot of mined territory to walk through to get to Tuzla and there were many who died from the mines and running battles with Serbs on the way to Tuzla.

@zell863 Bosnian Muslims wanted Bosnia and Hercegovina under Muslim domination and they were attacking Serb civilians at the very beginning of the war.

@herceg6772 Tudjman sent death squads to Vukovar to start the war. Tomislav Mercep and the Croatian police were abducting Serbs, torturing them, then shooting them at the rivers. The bodies of Serb civilians were washing up on the riverbanks in Croatia in 1991 and 1992.

@mostlysunny4987 Bosnian Muslims were on the Axis powers side in WWI and on the Germans' side in WWII. They were a special project of Himmler who formed divisions with them. And in the last war they staged attacks and sniped at civilians and the UN - UN officers testified about this.
