And that story is pretty much b.s. The Bosnians are not going to be turned into a militant base. The real danger of Islamic militancy is already in Western Europe, in the Islamic ghettos of Amsterdam and Lille and Hamburg. Bosnia is a sideshow.

Bosnia is allready terrorist base. In schools their learn prays for Mujahedeens, they name streets after kiled Mujahedeens, and their nationalists praise Osama.

"Bosnia is allready terrorist base. In schools their learn prays for Mujahedeens, they name streets after kiled Mujahedeens, and their nationalists praise Osama."

Can you provide documentation for that? And when you mean killed Mujahedeens, do you mean Bosnian soldiers killed in the war?

Bosnia is providing soldiers for Iraq, so their government policy is definitely not anti-American.

Yes, I can.

excerpt:
"I'm pleased to say that foreign forces continue to flow out of the country and we had information first thing this morning that a coach of Mujahedin left the Bihac area for Zagreb at about 17:30. There are still sightings of small numbers of Mujahedin around the country. It is difficult sometimes to know exactly who is a Mujahedin, but there have been sightings of small groups of them reported by IFOR; again we don't believe that these are significant. Some of the Mujahedins as you may know have Already married into the community, applied to join the Bosnian army, and so on. We are pleased with the progress in removing that particular element of foreign forces from the theater."
(He is hoping that they will REMOVE allready existant Mujahedeens)

Exactly. The Bosnians are helping us in Iraq and are on our side in the war on terror. After 9-11 they policed up 6 Algerians and sent them to us for an extended stay in GTMO and the terrorist arrests described above that they made in Sarajevo also led to another cell in Denmark.

While there certainly has been al Qaeda in Bosnia, the Bosnian government with an assist from a contingent of U.S. troops & FBI/CIA types, has been actively hunting them down. The idea that Bosnia is some kind of base with unfettered al Qaeda types running rampant is ridiculous.

Thank you, Slick Willy. One of the few things he really worked on.

Are you talking about the 1995 NATO air strikes on Bosnian Serbs that led them to negotiate? Or the Kosovo War, which ended when Belgrade was in range of US MLRS systems from Hungary? Whatever happened, the Serbs lost both wars.

What atrocities?
