[Sarajevo]

Tuzla and Sarajevo have been essentially cleansed of their Serbian population and most of the Croats too.

NOT!

Over 150,000 Serbs left Sarajevo from 1991, yet its total population today is significantly larger than prewar, AND IT IS VIRTUALLY all Muslims.

DOUBLE NOT!Over 150,000 Serbs left Sarajevo from 1991

I can't understand why, the Serb Army had the city surrounded. Even the muslim population had an escape route. It was an 800 meter long tunnel that extended UNDER Sarajevo Airport, an area of some of the heaviest fighting in the city.

Tuzla, I am told, has destroyed Orthodox churches, but where is the publicity for that.

Just where do you get your information from??? There are Orthodox churches, Catholic churches, and mosques in both cities.

Now, I need to ask, were you ever in Bosnia-Herzegovina?

Have you looked at the CURRENT population makeup of Sarajevo? Serbs are only 5% of the inhabitants today. Before they war they were about 30%.

http://www.crucibleofwar.com/sarajevo.htm

The Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) population -- which had been about 50% of Sarajevo's population before the war -- was now 87%. The Bosnian Serb population had been reduced from 28% to 5%.

1991:

Bosniacs: 252,000
Serbs: 139,000
Croats: 35,000
Others: 75,000 [many of these were Serbs who considered themselves Yugoslavs]

1997:

Bosniacs:303,000
Serbs: 18,000
Croats: 21,000
Others: 7,000

The Bosnian Muslim army kept the people in the city and wouldn't allow them to leave. Serbs did allow people to leave on the land they controlled.

Serbs controlled some suburbs of Sarajevo and the LINE OF CONFRONTATION ran near the middle of Sarajevo. The UN had its compound just on the Bosniak side. Further, UN soldiers have testified that the Muslim provoked and broke cease fires the most. A Ukrainian officer testified he heard OUTGOING mortars from just outside the compound where he and other UN staff were staying. He and the other soldiers believe it was the Muslims trying to get the UN hit by Serbs returning fire.
