Combat Patch For Bosnia Sfor 5
Edward Herman USA - (0) The Srebrenica Massacre was a Gigantic Political Fraud Renowned author Dr. Edward Herman spoke with John Robles of the Voice of Russia regarding the facts surrounding the Srebrenica Massacre, the pretext for the 'humanitarian' invasion of the former Yugoslavia, and takes apart the 'official'; version that has always been promoted by the West. Herman reveals that there were in fact multiple massacres at Srebrenica, and that the killing of Bosnian-Muslim soldiers at Srebrenica (the West's pretext) was in response to the killing of over 2, 000 Serb civilians, mostly women and children, at the location. Robles: My first question is about 'The Srebrenica massacre' and the way that the establishment manipulated the media. Can you tell us, or give us some insights, on that? Herman: The Srebrenica massacre, actually I always put it in quote marks, because actually there were lots of massacres in the Srebrenica area, the one before July 1995 there were vast numbers of Serbs killed by Muslim, Bosnian Muslim, forces who went out of Srebrenica.
This part of the website provides an archive of information relating to the NATO-led Stabilisation Force (SFOR) in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Jan. This operation was brought to a successful end on 2 December 2005. The information on this website is not updated since this date.
One estimate is that there were more than 150 Serbs villages that were totally wiped out and one study gives actually gives the names of 2, 383 Serb civilians who were killed between 1992 and July, 1995. So then we'd call that 'the first Srebrenica massacre'. Then in July 1995. Robles: Just to be very clear, these were Serbs, that were being killed. We're talking about 2, 383 Serb civilians killed before July 1995.
And the Bosnian Serb Army took over Srebrenica in July, 1995, and there were deaths and executions after that. That's what's called in the West 'the Srebrenica massacre', but, in fact, that's really mainly a political construct. The numbers executed there were probably in the order of between 500 and 1, 000.
In other words, less than half of the number of Serbs civilians killed before July, 1995. And the Western claim is that 8, 000 men and boys were executed in the quote Srebrenica massacre, but notice these were men, always men, all men, they were all soldiers, whereas those 2, 383 civilians killed included very large numbers of women and children. We're talking about the execution in the second massacre of essentially army people. And of course they had never proved that there were 7, 000 or 8, 000, even men and boys killed. The bodies in the graves added up to something like 2, 500. A lot of those bodies were combat deaths. One of the beauties of the Western propaganda system is that all the bodies they found after July, 1995, they count as executed, even though we know very well that a large number were killed in combat.
Reminder Herman: Also another important fact about the Srebrenica massacre is that all those killings of Serbs took place coming out of an area that was supposed to be a 'safe haven'. Srebrenica was a safe place, a safe haven. It was supposed to be demilitarized, but it never was. So the Bosnian Muslim soldiers would come out to Srebrenica and they would kill Serb civilians. This is all completely ignored in the Western media.
It's as if the Serbs came in July and started to kill arbitrarily. In fact, the U. Military in that area, a French offical name Phillip Morillon, was asked by the Yugoslav tribunal, 'Why the Serbs did it?' He said he's absolutely convinced that they did it because of what the commander of Srebrenica's Bosnian Muslims did to the Serbs before July 1995. This is the UN Army head, but you won't see that in the Western press! In other words, the first massacre is what led to the lesser second massacre of namely military aged people. The whole business of the Srebrenica massacre is a gigantic political fraud.
There was a massacre, but it was a responsive vengeance massacre, women and children were not killed. One of the features of the 'quote' Srebrenica massacre, that is the second one, is that 20, 000 Srebrenica women and children were bussed to safety by the Serb army. Women and children were not killed, only military aged people and a very large fraction of those that did die, died in combat. So my own estimate, as I said, is that maybe there were 500 to 1, 000 executions. Vengeance executions. Robles: I'm sorry. Herman: 500 to 1, 000 I would say.
Robles: 500 to 1, 000. So there was a significant massacre, but put it in its context! This was a war, this was an army that had seen their own civilians massacred on a much larger scale. That is completely suppressed in the West, as if the Serbs came in to Srebrenica and started to kill because of a blood lust! It's absolutely a fraud! So, I regard the Srebrenica massacre as a tremendous propaganda triumph.
The West wanted to go after Serbia and they avoided peace. They needed this massacre. Robles: You said, about 2, 380 civilians, women and children mainly.
Herman: Serbian women and children, yes. Robles: ' were killed initially. This was the Srebrenica' Herman: The first massacre between 1992 and July 1995. These were Serb civilians. There were also hundreds of Serb military killed in that period, I am just talking about civilians! Robles: The civilians, right! And then in retaliation approximately 2, 500 Muslim.
Bosnian Muslims soldiers were killed. That's misleading, because the thrust of the 8, 000 claim is that they were executed but those 2000-plus that were killed, a very large fraction were killed in combat. Robles: In combat. Herman: Yes, and the executions were, as I say probably in the order of 500 to 1, 000. Robles: Okay. So those were Bosnian Muslims who were found to be directly responsible for killing massive numbers of Serbian civilians. Herman: The Serbs actually had lists of Bosnian Muslim soldiers they wanted to get, but I canft honestly say they were the only ones who were executed.
But certainly, a significant number of those executed were on those lists, those vengeance lists.

84727 -: Ognjen Knn - (0) False Propaganda And Lies To Destroy Serbs Adrian A. McQueen, a young British man, made an extremely well-documented short documentary film showing how Serbs have been unfairly targeted by world powers, media and the Vatican.
McQueen said: The Serbs have been the most demonised group of modern times and their side of the story has never been presented to the world. This ethnic group in the Balkans have been unfairly demonised and most of the world have believed the false propaganda and outright lies. The mistreatment and false representation of the Serbs, an Orthodox Christian ethnic group in the Balkans, is a prime example how the media, historians and governments can deliberately distort facts and rally together to target a group and accomplish their greedy objectives and aims.
Well, this is a fantastic documentary film that exposes well documented the long-term anti-Serb propaganda and lies about Serbia and the Serbs. 83697 -: Zeljko Tomic Sokolac - (2) The Destruction of Anti-Communism in Yugoslavia This article is supported by several documents from the British Military Archive, which were held as a secret for 50 years. The original documents you can download if you click.
Draza Mihajlovic, an officer in the Army of Royal Yugoslavia who had studied methods of irregular warfare, became t first leader of Yugoslav military resistance against the invading Germans and Italians in 1941. He was supported by the Allies, described in America and Britain as 'The Balkan Eagle', 'The Robin Hood of Serbia' and 'The White Hope of the Allies'.
In 1942 General Dwight D. Eisenhower, then Allied Commander-in-Chief in the Mediterranean, sent the Yugoslav hero a telegram of congratulation on his valiant campaign of military resistance. General Charles de Gaulle, leader of the Free French Forces, awarded the Croix de Guerre to his fellow freedom fighter against 'the common enemy'. At the time the Wrhrmacht, commanded in North Africa by Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, was less than 30 miles from Alexandria.
Mihailovic's guerrilla campaign slowed the flow of reinforcements and war material to Rommel: He was showed with thanks by Britain's military leaders, and presented with a purse of gold on behalf of King George VI. After the Teheran Conference between Roosewelt, Churchil and Stalin in November 1943 Mihailovic's star began to wane. The wider course of the war influenced the perceptions of the leaders of the two democracies, Roosevelt and Churchill.
But a critical factor, never appreciated at the time, was the role played by Communist agents in the British intelligence services. Eventually, the western allies were persuaded to back the Communist Partisans of Josip Broz Tito', and to effectively terminate their support for the much larger military formations commanded by Mihailovic. Subsequent research has cast doubt upon the 'facts' that were gathered and reported to the British and American authorities, including the supposedly objective basis that, as Churchill famously expressed it, 'Tito's partisans are killing more Germans'. Much less well known are the lengths to which the allies were prepared to go to ensure that Tito should consolidate his victory in Yugoslavia at the end of the war.
Two episodes stand out. One was the heavy bombardment of several cities where support for Mihailovic's cause was strongest.
Belgrade was truck by allied air forces for three consecutive days over Orthodox Easter ( 7th April 1945). The Montenegrian towns of Niksic, Podgorica and Danilovrad were distroyed on St. George's Day (6. Fifty American B-29;S flattened Leskovac in Serbia. The other episode, until recently rumoured but almost entirely undocumented, was the had-over to Tito of 200, 000 Croat troops, in intact military formations.
Allegedly these troops were killed or sent on 'death marches' by the Partisans. But after being handed over to Tito in the second week of May 1945 what actually happened? N fact most were enlisted as Partisans - as numerous units that served the Croat Fascist regime of Ante Pavelic previously had been - and they were then directed against Mihailovic's forces in Bosnia and Serbia. This was a task for which, because of the genocidal anti-Serb nature of Croatian Fascism, they were ideally suited. This immediately altered the balance of power in Yugoslavia. It meant that Tito's weaker forces could outfight the Royalists; and that Tito could dispense with what would otherwise have been his necessary dependence on military assistance from Stalin.
In turn, the suppression of Serbian anti=Nazi patriotism - which had been the backbone of resistance against Hitler and Mussolini - allowed the creation of a new post-war Communist myth of fraternity and brotherhood. Realising his difficult position in the aftermath of the agreements reached at Teheran, Mihailovic in August 1944 made the following prophetic statement: 'More than three years ago I took up arms to fight for democracy against Dictatorship in the form of Nazism and Fascism. In fighting for this cause there were ten occasions on which I almost lost my life. If I must die in fighting against a new form of Dictatorship, I shall die bitter because I have been deserted by those who profess to believe in democracy, but satisfied that I myself have fought bravely and honestly and have refused o compromise my cause.'
Titoism' was an ideology of such profound mendacity that when it eventually collapsed in Yugoslavia that unhappy country was subjected once again to a barbarous civil war, rooted in the ethnic nationalism that had been inflamed and suppressed during the Second World War. 26 th April 2004 Circulated for the consideration of the Chiefs of Staff J.P.

WAR CABINET - JOINT PLANNING STAFF Yugoslavia - Supplies for the Serbs Report by the Joint Planning Staff In accordance with instructions, we have, in consultation with the Special Operations Executive, examined a minute from the Foreign Secretary on the subject of increasing the size of partisan groups in Serbia owing allegiance to Tito, and the Prime Minister's reply. Present Situation 2. As illustrated in the sketch map at Appendix, Tito's partisan groups cover most of the area of Yugoslavia except Serbia where the influence of Mihailovitch is still predominant. In Serbia, however, Tito has a steadily increasing following. His Serbian Command, in three main groups, number about 11,000, while his Macedonian Command with a strength of about 2,500 is located in small pockets as shown on the map. These bodies are already active and supplies of arms on a limited scale have already started.
They are well placed to interfere with German activities in the Balkans, particularly as regards communications and mineral supplies. Potential Value of Serbian Effort 3. Two strategically important railways, Belgrade-Nis-Skolje and Belgrade-Kraljevo-Skoplje, run through Serbian territory. The disruption of these railways would be of great strategic value to us under any conditions. In the event of a German withdrawal from Greece and Bulgaria, the importance of these lines of communication would be greatly increased. The best quality chrome and about three-quarters of present German supplies of the metal come from the Skoplje area and Northern Greece. Should resistance in this area be such as to deprive the Germans of these supplies, it would have the very gravest effects on their war production.

Toward to end of April, 3000 Chetnics fought above Fiume and at Kocevie. Msi Afterburn Software here. Others occupied Gorizia where they were well received by the population. According to orders issued by Mihailovic's Supreme Command, these men were oging to cross the Isonzo river and seek refuge in Italy. Tito's bands and troops, however reached the Isonzo at that time and blocked the trasit. The tow fractions started to fight each other until General Breyberg wedged his New Zealaders between them and enabled the Chetnics to take refuge across the Isonzo in territory completely under Allied jurisdiction.

81717 -: Zeljko Tomic Sokolac - (1) Srebrenica, nothing but the lies The following document contains a vital statistics of the Bosnian town of Srebrenica. The information was sent in 1994 by the Muslim mayor to the Muslim institutions in Sarajevo and Tuzla. The document states that during the Bosnian war in Srebrenica used to live about 37,000 people. The mayor stressed in the letter that this document should not be made available to the international organizations, which had been falsely informed that Srebrenica has up to 45,000 inhabitants. During the Bosnian war the Muslim government and the Western media claimed that at least 40,000 people lived in Srebrenica.
This document was presented at The Hague Tribunal, during the trial against Radivoje Miletic and it is a legitimate proof that officials in Srebrenica had been invented up to 8,000 residents of the city. 78769 -: Mihailo Danilovic Majur, Šabac - (0) Europe living on the ruins of the Serbian civilization 11th June 2005, Source: 'Independent' London - London Independent 'cover fits over the entirepublished article about the discovery of the oldest civilization in Europe. According to the newspaper, that civilization is 2,000 years older than Stonehenge in the UK.
It was found that under the fields andcities in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia has a network of more than 150 huge temples, built 7,000 years ago or 300 years before similar temples in Mesopotamia, the BBC reported. The newspaper says that this discovery will fundamentally change the existing perceptions of the Stone Age in Europe, since up to now considered to be monumental architecture developed in Europe before Mesopotamia and Egypt, the newspaper said.' It is not hard to guess that the oldest civilization - Slavs or Serbs Lusatian, who are still the closest genetic relatives of the Balkan Serbs. The truth that slowly comes out, and they 'civilized Europeans' at any price they want to hide it - that the whole of Europe was created in the ruins an ancient Slavic (Serbian) civilization. Dresden in Germany, were excavated prehistoric Slavic settlement in downtown, excavated the site 7-8000 years old, who of course belonged to the Slavs (Serbs Lusatian). Dresden 8000 - an archaeological journey through time Dresden celebrates its birthday in 2006. 800 years ago, on this day, the capital of Saxony, was first mentioned in medieval documents.
However, its history began long before the first written because people were living in Dresden, in the valley of the river Elbe (Labe) thousands of years. We invite you to discover many unknown details of the past, outside of official documents and familiar images!
The exhibition contains more than 1,000 m² to 1,000 artifacts from the earliest traces of human activity in the Neanderthal period, the first Neolithic villages to baroque. Visitors can expect an exciting journey towards new discoveries.
The early settlers nearly 7,000 years ago, they left behind traces that were found with the Frauenkirche, a ridge along the western valley of the River Elbe (Labe). Here, the district Nickern, archaeologists found in 2003 large circular tomb of Neolithic settlements. At least one of the oldest pottery from Dresden in Saxony-Mockritz - dates from 5500 years BC (before more than 7,500 g.) Particular attention will cause the results of archaeological excavations in the inner city. Since Dresden after severe war damage and the radical urban planning almost completely changed his appearance, tangible evidence of the old urban areas can only be found underground. So, archaeologists have found the foundation walls in the basement of the old building in the heart of the city.
The old market, new markets, and on Wall Street and Weber Street, suddenly human buildings from past centuries were visible again. Driving Directions. Here you'll find stuff from all areas of daily life, from old centuries and 20 centuries, ceramic tile and children's toys. Focal point for archeology in recent years the district Frauenkirche. Redevelopment of the village of Neumarkt, has led to the need to have become extensive research. The remains of the former city and houses have been discovered on the Neumarkt.
We also found a cemetery in the Frauenkirche. By the 16th century, the church Sv. Gospe the walls of the city of Dresden had its own cemetery, but later it became a cemetery. This cemetery dates back to before the time of the baroque church Baersch time developed srednjegm century, and even from the time of the Slavs, about 1000 g BC, tombs were found here. Nalazi are older than the later settlement within walls. The dead were buried without attachments and simply, it was found in the Baroque period, one of the unexpected things, they were buried with dieVerstorbenen citizenship. Gold jewelry, silver crosses and nice clothes adorned the dead.
Single women - perhaps even men - wore silver-plated filigree crown, embroidered flowers on the cloth. The strong impression against the outer fortifications of the enemy, leaving a well-preserved remains of the walls, which were also exhibited at the Neumarkt. The urban expansion in the 16th century walls were removed to ground level only. The walls of the bridge market, along with former Frauentor have survived in the soil. Also, pre-historic fort - the so-called 'Barbican' - was visible again. Unfortunately, it is a city underground garage.
The focus of this exhibition are an ancient people and their lives in the city. They have left their mark in the 'underground site': town houses and Barbican, tombs, and gold jewelry, castles, stone axes, and the crown of the dead are just some of the others that appear on our show. 72768 -: Ratko Obrenovic Detroit, USA - (0) Ethnic Conflicts in Civil War in Bosnia -Political manipulation with term of Genocide (6) LIST OF THE CAMPS FOR SERBS IN SREBRENICA: (320.

Missing persons 4. The Bosnian Serb offensive on Srebrenica from 6 to 11 July 1995 led to a mass displacement of the entire Bosnian Muslim community of the area. An estimated 25,000 people were forcibly evacuated on a convoy of buses and trucks organized by the Bosnian Serb authorities. A group of people, estimated at between 10,000 and 15,000, most of whom were men, left Srebrenica on foot. The exact number of persons from these two groups who arrived safely in Bosnian Government-held territory is not known. By most accounts, the local population prior to the Bosnian Serb offensive numbered 38,000 to 40,000, although UNHCR estimated the population of the enclave for food distribution purposes at 42,600. Thousands of people still remain unaccounted for.
An unknown number who made their way to safety have simply not been registered by the appropriate authorities. At least several hundred persons are believed to have been killed in armed combat. There are also accounts of men in hiding in Bosnian Serb-held territory, although no more than a few hundred men are believed to be still at large.
It is thus difficult to ascertain the exact numbers of those missing. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has received over 10,000 tracing requests from families and has determined that 2,000 of the requests are duplicative, leaving a total of 8,000 tracing requests. A further analysis by ICRC indicates that 5,000 of the tracing requests concern individuals who are said to have left the enclave before it was taken by Bosnian Serb forces.
Some 3,000 requests concern persons who were taken from their families by Bosnian Serb forces during the expulsion itself. 34.Faxsimil of document of Bosnian Muslim Army (BMA) 1.Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina ARMY OF R.

On 16 June he tended cattle nearby his house when he was approached by Babajic, Ramic and Ibrahimovic from the village of Glogovo and forcibly taken to the Moslem village of Cizmici and closed in the house of Camil Muratovic. He was beaten. On 25 June Mitrovic's sons were on the hill called 'Cuka', in the neighborhood of Cizmici, when they heard Moslems calling them, proposing to negotiate on the exchange of Mitrovic.
They wanted to see their father first, and they took him out in front of Camil Muratovic's stable. Mitrovic could hardly walk with the help of a stick; he shouted that he was alive and well. In exchange for Mitrovic they demanded 5 tons of flour or 5 boxes of ammunition, which his sons did not have. Then they shouted to them: 'Send your mother Jovanka. We have no one to fuck; we'll give you your father back'. Mitrovic's sons felt humiliated and asked in despair their friends to kill their father so that Moslems could not torture and humiliate him any more, but they refused.
