A Balkans ping.
For the millionth time, the Handzar Division had no role in the Holocaust of the Jews.
Thanks for the clarification. Can you elaborate?
Thanks.

The Handzar themselves had a German officer corps and had some Imams attached to them. They were horrifed to learn that they had to cooperate with Serb Chetniks in sweeps against Partisans, when in fact they wanted revenge against these very Chetniks.
The Best English book on the Handzar is written by American author George Lepre.

Very much appreciated.

His info is erronoeous.
They had no role regarding Jews. Can you provide dates where they did? Trust me, you can't.
If "Encyclopedia of the Holocaust" is not good enough for you go to Goggle and type words handzar, division, Jews
or similar combination and you will get hundreds and hundreds of hits - and that is only in English. As for other info, maybe you should consult your relatives and cousins - they should be able to provide you with dates.
They had no role regarding Jews that is quite interesting reaction. I mean, after all, we are talking here about Nazi's Waffen SS murderous scam, personally recruited for Hitler by Arafat's Nazi Uncle - Haj Amin al-Husseini!
Are you ticked off because information Ive posted proves that Croats were not only one to kill Jews in former Yugoslavia.
I'm not the least "ticked off." I was only seeking information, and I take your word for that which you have provided. Thanks so much. I wasn't questioning you at all. Maybe Diocletian was, but not I.
Char
Message was meant for Diocletian. For some reason idea that Muslim, Nazi SS were killing Jews disturbed him. Ive include you FYI.
Sorry my mistake!
That info isn't good enough. It is directly contradicted by George Lepre's work. I need dates and actions as proof.
Hi Charlite! Can you tell me the dates when the Handzar was supposedly involved with rounding up or killing Jews?
zagor-te-nej would be the FR participant to ask, as I have no detailed knowledge of this issue.
Thanks for asking, but you need to ask him (or her).
Char :)
If you chose so, no info will be good for you, and Croats are pretty good at that.

Contradicts his work so what? Lepre is one source and there is wealth of information out there. You can go to some good search engine or contact "Encyclopedia of the Holocaust", and ask them. Handzar members were Waffen SS murderous scam, going around and killing Serbs, Gypsies and Jews that is enough for me. What you need is of little consequence for me.
I asked them and they had nothing specific. Lepre has the specifics.
