A few weeks later a small blip about Operation Storm appeared on page 14 of the New York times. Operation Storm could not be allowed to be the lead story out of the Balkans because the US government was connected to Operation Storm, and Operation Storm could arguably be a better example of "genocide" than anything that happened in Srebrenica.
There certainly were war crimes and ethnic cleansing in Croatia, but the Serbs claim 1,200 civilian casualties. The Croats claim there were only 120. And from what I read, the discrepancy is more in characterizing what’s a civilian, not how many casualties. That’s compared to 8,000 dead in Srebrenica.
If you’re arguing people didn’t know about Operation Storm, you’re just kidding yourself.
