I know that those things happened, it was a civil war in incredibly mixed area, it would be stupid to deny.
On tactical level - yes it was retaliation for several surrounding villages
On a bit larger scale - UN's fault. Why there was enough weapons to do all of that in demilitarized zone?
On strategic level - yes, my Serbs fcuked up, by starting new round of socialisms. Milosevic's national(istic) socialism, Alya's pan-islamic-socialism (read his Manifesto) and Tudjman's limited-capitalistic-socialism-nationalistic
ROOT OF ALL EVIL? MARX!
The one that sees people as classes and not individuals.

WWII, start, Ustashe were eliminated class of wrong nation - Serbs
WWII, end, Communists were eliminating class of wrong material status, landlords and factory owners
90's, All 3 national(istic) socialisms, were eliminating other ethnic classes from their area
This is why nobody cared about you. You were just an individual, just 1 millionth part of your class, basically nothing. not my words, Marx
The result: once we've realized that even this socialism doesn't work, we packed our bags and got out of there, never to return.
Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia, all of them lost a significant percentage of population after the war was over.
Of course man, we are in agreement at least on this here. I commented to just tell others that it’s not as cut and dried as many people here seem to believe. It’s one thing to have read about it or seen it on the news, it’s another to have lived it and have had family members all around jugoslavia tell their tales.
says who? CNN?
Says my relatives and me who were fortunate enough to survive and flee before we were raped/slaughtered as well.
It’s not a conspiracy man, I personally lived through this.
