Bosnia: Haven for Islamic radicals?

By Nicholas Wood International Herald Tribune

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2005

SARAJEVO A police raid last month on an apartment near this city's airport uncovered evidence of an imminent suicide bombing, intensifying the fears of Western security services that Bosnia is becoming a haven for Islamic radicals.

The raid, which was carried out after an extensive surveillance operation by the Bosnian police and Western intelligence services, turned up an arsenal of weapons in the apartment, including suicide vests, about 30 kilograms, or 65 pounds, of exploding bullets and high explosive, and a machine pistol.

Investigators said they also found a videotape in which three men - at least two of them teenagers - are seen asking forgiveness from God for their "sacrifice," a recording made just hours before the raid. The two teenagers were arrested.

The Soros fluffers will be along shortly to deny all of this and blame it on the Serbs.

I'd like the answer to that too.

Destro is greatly missed.

Clinton's war was a mistake. Liberating Muslims from Milosevic's tyranny was a mistake. The US's Bosnian policy is a failed policy. Wesley Clark the Great does not have an exit strategy in Bosnia. The Bosnian War only worsened terrorism. Sound familiar?
The only difference is US troops have been in Bosnia 'forever', whereas they have only been in Iraq for over 2 years.

Becoming?
A PBS FrontLine segment from about two years ago documented Bosnia
as a recruitment/training ground for Islamic radicals.

The nationalities of the inmates at Guantanamo and of those being held in detention in Iraq or Afghanistan don't support the view that Bosnia is anything other than a failure as far as Islamic radicalism.

After a decade, all that's been gained has been one village filled with displaced Mujahadeen who are under close watch by our intel guys, and a couple Bosnian teens who've decided that martyrdom is the way to go.

This is just more Serb BS trying to retroactively justify their war by turning it from a war against the 'Turks' and 'Ustashe' (forget about the hundreds of Catholic churches dynamited by Serbs in Croatia and Bosnia) into a war against Al Qaeda - but nobody with half a clue is buying it.

Which is why our Balkan policy hasn't changed much through three successive Presidential administrations, Serbia is still on our sh*t list, and our Balkan threads remain such interesting places.

See, I told you the Soros fluffers would be by to deny the facts and then try to blame the Serbs. They are consistent in their idiocy.

Still trying to blame all of the anti-Church actions of the collective Communists on the Serbs alone, eh Hoppy? No one buys that Bravo Sierra, not even Soros.

Want to explain why in our country we "need" our police and military to commit mass murder of civilians, rape women, loot houses, burn villages, and blow-up the Mosques and Catholic Churches?

Serbs never are and probably never will be Democractic and CAPITALISTIC. Please don't EVER compare them with America.
