As a proud wife of a Serbian man, I must say that the Bosnians are lyinig scum and I wouldn't believe a word they say.

Thank you. When the mass graves were never discovered it was a big tipoff that maybe all of the stories of the Serbian atrocities were lies.

I am ashamed of what this country has done to Serbia, and I personally extend my apologies. All I can say is that the way the conflict was presented by the media, I could not keep straight which side was which or what they represented. I was not an avid news/politics watcher then as I am now.

One day I believe this country will apologize to Serbia, and hopefully make restitution. I do not know if I will live long enough to see it, but it was a low point in the history of the USA.

This fabrication, this myth about a campaign of “systematic rape of Bosnian women” has been perpetuated for so long and has been so milked by the mainstream media whoredom that the only place left for it to go was the silver screen. It’s been a long time, but if my memory serves me, I think Roy Gutman was among the first ones to report on the “systematic mass rapes.” His reports were never questioned by the MSM and he was never asked to provide any evidence to back up his stories. This did not prevent him from receiving the Pulitzer Prize. Consider this: Brock has a detailed and convincing deconstruction of the claims of rape camps and rape as a Serb military tactic and exclusive (chapter 5). While certainly never denying Serb rapes, he shows that there is not the slightest evidence that Serb rapes were more numerous or organized than those of Bosnian Muslim or Croatian forces. He points out that the documentation of Serb rape victims is more extensive and of better quality than that of victims of Serbs, despite the sizable resources put into collecting evidence of the latter. The Serb data just never could attract the interest of the pack (and the same was true of the pack’s treatment of Serb dossiers of war crimes and prison camps in which Serbs were victims). The bias confused the media—Paul Lewis writing in the New York Times on “Rape Was Weapon of the Serbs” (Oct. 20, 1993) noted that a UN report had identified “800 victims by name,” but Lewis failed to mention that they were Serb women. The estimates of 50,000 or 20,000 rape victims of Serbs were based on no evidence whatsoever (the exact same numbers given by the woman in the article -- confirming the existence of the campaign of lies), and the belief that rape was a special Serb crime rested strictly on the overwhelming political bias of the pack and superior public relations and propaganda activity of the Croats and Bosnian Muslims. (A January 1994 UN report evaluating all the documentation on rapes, excluding evidence from the Serbs, listed 126 confirmed victims. This finding did not interest the media.) (full article)
