As someone who has grown up with tons of Bosnians who fled the country, I can say that these are some of the nicest and most caring people I have ever met.
From what I seen they are inherently peaceful people who avoid conflict at all costs. Some of these Serbs are mad because despite their genocidal efforts during the war Bosnians managed to defend themselves.

This is all about control by the west.Devide and ruled don't fall for it. At the moment they are looking for a war with Russia. And spinning this bullshit typical of the BBC. Something else is happening mark my word. The media have been warned
Don't fall for the BBC propaganda. They are fear mongering over a potential war which they have made up in their own imagination. Why you may ask? Well, to help you to agree in banning free speech under the guise of not denying a genocide which on the surface may seem like laudable idea. Tomorrow it will be a ban on free speech on something else and so on and so forth. However their aim is to slowly be able to put bans on all sorts of speech in order to control the narratives. They also want to promote Islamist movements around the world because they are seen as a tool by the left / communist ideologues to dismantle present societal structures. Why do they want to do all this? Well they want to put into place their own utopian communist society run on their own principals later on in time. However they believe they need to break down political structures, culture, and society first as it will make it easier for them to move in and reconstruct society along their own plans later. They dont want to get their own hands dirty and believe they have found a useful force in Islamists. The plan is once they have used them to get rid of them afterwards. Similar gameplans have been used successfully and unsuccessfully by successive communist regimes around the world all through the C20. Yes, its insane but thats Communists ideologues for you. In the BBC they often came out of Oxbridge which was infiltrated by Commie sympathisers going way back in time. Beware.
As a Bosnian in my 30's, I absolutely do not understand why should a young soldier from Bosnia or any Balkan country that went through the horrors in the 90's voluntary or even for money go to war with other young men in our beautiful country and region. Young soldiers, wake up, think about your life, your family, your brothers and sisters, your friends. Leave the Army, go home, live your life, fall in love, create a family, new life, do not take others. I beg you.

In return for everything Bosnia did to help the serbs in the second world war, from trying to smuggle them to safety or convince croat forces that you werent part of any partisan movements, you repayed them with invasion. Invasion started for a proclamation of greater serbia. You lie and say Bosnians chose their religion over their own people yet you Serbs committed genocide against neighbors you had for decades. I suggest you educate yourself, before accidentally spreading more lies to misinform people.
I was a baby/toddler during the Yugoslav Wars. I can’t imagine what it would be like for those who lived through that hellish conflict to see it happen all over again. 😢
As a child in that war(6) i was not aware of it. Yes i remember those times but it is not as scary as you think. Scary thing of war is the aftermath. We were growing up in a devastated society transforming from a socialist to capitalist system. Why? Because someone else wanted to. If someone ask me if i want to go to war i would say only if its neccecery to protect my people. Why? Because im not an idiot(definition). Reporting like this led to Srebrenica, NATO bombing and stuff like that and i will fight against it for the rest of my life.

Well since Young Bosnia assasinated the Emperor.....you got what you deserved....but I will say this, "young Bosnia" takes it insipration from Guiseppe Mazzini...and at that time the battle against autocratic monarchs and emperors was a real struggle. But the goal is not to break these powers, but to reform them, for we desire tradition over socialism and communism. The goal is an imperial federation with a round table of Monarchies, serving Mazzini's Nationalist International, with some constitutionalism to delineate a separation of powers between the macros and micro local democracy. The great Catholic Emperor is soon approaching...and he will smash many nations engaging in such foolery, in the name of the primacy of Christ, and a family of Nations.
@@RenneDanjoule what are you talking about? The emperor wasn't assassinated, it was Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir apparent to the Austro-habsburg monarchy who was assassinated, and it was a serb Gavrilo Princip member of the black hand who killed him

Young Bosnia inherited the Mazzinian tradition of Young Italy.

One of the two Young Bosnians tried for the assassination inscribed in his diary just after the fateful event the words of Mazzini : There is no more sacred thing in the world than the duty of a conspirator, who becomes an avenger of humanity and the apostle of permanent natural laws."-James H Billington, 13th Librarian of Congress

"Dutch UN troops could not protect terrified Bosniak civilians who crowded into these concrete sheds at their base" A symbolic point that the UN is useless, they didn't stop it from happening.

It's one of the reasons why I spit on the UN, it's just a tool for the permanent members of the security council.

His mother would not talk to much about it but I could see the pain in her face having to flee her country they were such a nice and tight knit family. Unfortunately we lost Adnan to drugs years after highschool I miss him dearly and still see his family no and then. But we had many Bosnian families living in Ohio and they were all very nice families and all their children were extremely respectful I hope that shit from the past doesn't dreg up another war that no one wants to fight.
To be fair, I think every genocide is bad as each other and I believe the message you just sent implies that one’s worse than the other. The reason the BBC is repeating this one is because political conflicts could result into war in bosnia.
@@Aren_Sefer Not really. I believe all genocides are equally bad because, well they are genocides. My problem is that BBC doesn't even use the term genocide when they talk about what happened to the Armenians. They use words like "massacres", "mass deportations" because they fear to upset Turkey. It's actually ironic, because the term genocide was coined by Raphael Lemkin to describe what happened to the Armenians in 1915. To me this is a form of genocide denial which is just shameful for an organization like BBC.

You don't have to worry because there is literally nothing going on in the Balkans. The western media is always trying to stirr up the pot here because it suits them to occupy our lands. 99.999% of people in all Balkan countries are normal people who don't give a shit about the war. 99.99%who went to war in the 90-ies were forced by the government to kill their own fellow friends and cousins across the border and lose their lives protecting their homeland. The west has done nothing but perpetuate the political instability here. It wasn't the war of the people, it was a war of the corrupted governments blinded by the west. I live in Serbia and most of my friends are from Bosnia and they come here to study. I can tell you from both my and their side that there is no war nor upcoming war in the Balkans. We live normal lives and I won't let the west lie about what's going on. Don't be fooled and brainwashed by your media.
I'm Bosnian, living in Sarajevo, I'll explain this charade: This year elections are in Bosnia, meaning if the corrupt/nationalist politicians want to retain power, they have to rely on ideologies from 30 years ago. Serbs do this by lies of secession and joining the Serbia, Bosniaks do this by placing themselves as the defenders of Bosnia and islam, Croats do this by lies of secession again. All 3 presidents regain power this way, while stealing from the country itself for their families. And they do this so the people forget how bad economy is, fuel is rising, basic living groceries have gone through the roof, the salaries are stagnating. So while people think that other constituent people are horrible, they forget whay the youth leaves Bosnia in the first place - we're poor, jobless, no perpective, spoonfed nationalism from our birth. If a war breaks out (if we all don't leave Bosnia for decent work, and life of the western Europe) our presidents are the FIRST to run away leaving us, the youth to kill each other for their agenda. Sadly as much as this sounds like common knowledge to you, my opinion is considered too naive, because I'm supposed to be suspicious of every Serb, every Croat,just as they are taught to be suspicious of every Bosniak... I want our people to realise that no matter what group they come from, they still live in 1 country, which can be a paradise for us all, or hell(again) for us all...✌️

@@biohazard8295 Absolutely agreed, but its just we are sick of CNN and BBC giving us moral lessons and plain lying on what is happening just like they did in 90s.
NATO had their own reasons for wanting to intervene in the conflict. To justify their aggression they promoted the narrative that Serbs were the only ones committing war crimes.
Thank you. It wasn't the Albanian civilians can I just clarify it was the Albanian mafia. We serbs did kill albanian civilians probably but it was un intential as it was a war but we didn't commit genocide that was the Albanian mafia.
The girl who used to do my hair back in high school had relatives in Yugoslavia. About 2 months before the war broke out her grandma went to visit relatives there and was never heard from again. We also had a girl in high school who was a foreign exchange student and was here when the war started. She managed to be able stay here because her homeland was now dangerous.
I am from the Balkans, but not from the former Yugoslavia. I was very young when the war started, but I remember that even in my country people were scared, even if we had nothing to do with the conflict. For us, these people are absolutely the same. They look the same and speak the same language, which is different from ours, but understandable enough. The only difference is the religion - Catholicism, Orthodoxy and Islam. I do not understand why they are constantly fighting with each other? My country is mostly Orthodox, but we also have a lot of Muslims, also Catholics, and we live normally with each other.

@@jessicajujubean5004 You might be right. I'm not sure, but I don't think the conflict between them is very old. I am not very familiar, but I think that there were no serious conflicts between Serbs and Croats in the old days, and the territory of Bosnia was then in the territories of both kingdoms. In the old days, the wars in the Balkans were mostly between my country and Serbia. Until the 19th century, Croats and Serbs were friendly peoples, I would even say brothers. Bosnia did not appear until the 12th century, I don't even know if they are a different ethnic group or just because they live in the territory with that name. In my opinion, all the problems start with the creation of Yugoslavia. Instead of becoming one nation, they are moving away from each other because some want to dominate. I guess that's human nature and there will probably always be conflicts between them.
@@svetoslavstanchev9977 Indeed, there wasn't a *visible* conflict between Serbs and Croats until the creation of Yugoslavia. I've written a paper regarding how it started. Essentially Serbs were the only one with a functional independent state, and were much more eager about Yugoslavism. Serbs formed Yugoslavia, seeing themselves as Piedmont of the Balkans - the unifying element. Whereas Croats and other groups weren't so keen. So soon Croats emerged as a particularly strong opponent of Yugoslavia, which claimed to have perceived as "oppressors". The truth is that anti-Serbism was present even before establishment of Yugoslavia, which has its' roots from Austrian-Hungarian hatred. There were riots and symbolic gestures suggesting Serbs were unwelcome in Zagreb, but also Sarajevo. It was due to intoctrination/religious affiliation. Kingdom of Yugoslavia was a mess. Serbs were indeed dominant there (although not oppressive), with the monarchy being Serbian, which infuriated Croats. Despite that, Serbs were friendly to Croats, particularly those in Croatian lands. Croatians rejected Yugoslavism outright at a certain point. Over time, Serbs started making concessions, which ended in establishment of a Croatian corpus separatum in 1939. It quickly resulted in a proto-state being established there, with its' own paramilitary. Once Yugoslavia was crushed in Nazi invasion, a huge territory was given to the Ustasha, one of the most extreme terrorist racist organizations in history. They established a state which committed genocide of about a million civilians, looking at sheer percentage of population it was more mass scale, but less organized than the Holocaust. Mostly it resorted to unspeakably brutal violence, to which most Croats cheered to, or at least ignored it. It was not like Third Reich, where the most vile acts were a "public secret" - here it couldn't be hidden nor was it attempted to be. Everything after WWII is just history. Groups full of resentment for each other. Muslims became a relevant factor in the whole game only after WWII.
@@svetoslavstanchev9977 Bosniaks as a people do not really exist, as a separate ethnic group. They are descendants of Serbs or Croats in one part. What separated their nationhood was conversion to islam. But it only became a nation some time after WWII. Before that, they identified as Serbs (or Croats) of Mohammedan faith.
This truly is tragic news, my ex landlord spoke of many horrors during the war, seen young girls raped in the streets and shot through the head. Please don't let this happen again.
Serbs are a proud nation and should be proud of their nationalism and traditionality! Why doesn't anyone condemn newly created nations that appropriate and change history older than themselves?
It's heartbreaking seeing this cycle of hate and violence, all of which started hundreds of years ago yet there seems to be no end in sight even after many generations.
I was a teenager working on a farm in Hertfordshire, UK, during the Bosnian/Yugoslav war and subsequent breakup. I was driving around in the sunshine, listening to a tiny cab radio, listening to the daily roundup of violence, rape, and murder. Nothing has changed, it never will.

If there are intelligent life away from earth (which obviously there has to be), they'd rather completely shred us to the last atom before making peaceful contact, or just terraform this planet altogether and make it suitable for them, because someday, we WILL try to colonize space.
Don’t forget to mention the US and UK who create and perpetrate these wars all over the world and then sit back in their ivory towers watching the fun unfold as if they are at the cinema. Evil people with evil hearts in these so called western and ‘civilised’ countries.
My dad fought in Bosnia, the horror he told me he saw was horrific. Still haunts him now, to see growing up a hig strong man slowly break apart into madness, killed the child in me. I feel for everyone experiencing hell right now
My Mom saw human carcasses in outbuildings, there frozen to get food. People need to do whatever they can to stop the carnage, like today the Russian Orthodox leader on Russia called the invasion justified Hmm my scripture talks about peacemakers.
I know, I've heard stories. The worst part of war is that some extremist idiot gang group will knock on your door and tell you you are coming with them to fight. You're either with them or against them. And if you dare say you don't want to fight a senseless war, then "your own" will have no remorse in killing you. As a woman from Sarajevo once tole me: the most important thing is to remain human and not become a beast.
I love Sarajevo and Mostar two beautiful cities, as a Serb, with family over there I hope we can finally stop this kind of nonsense, let these nations live their lives in peace.
@@promeneuzivotu117 What propaganda? That Serbs invaded Bosnian land and commited a genocide and mass rapes? Serbs are not going to be excused until they recognise the crimes that they have commited.
I love how BBC, when translating Muslim mother on gravesite of her sons, use no accent on English and when Serbian veterans are speaking BBB decided to use heavy Russian accent.
and then BBC makes a mistake to treat those people as muslims they are just humans...if you treat them not as humans but as muslims, you are unwittingly doing Serbian propagandas a favor who wants to transform an ethnic war into a religious war to also have the support of the west
Imagine walking around your hometown and not knowing whether the man who delivered your mail or who served you in the local DIY store may have shot your brother or your father. Imagine thinking of things like that every time you step out into the street. Bosnia-Herzegovina's unsustainably low birth rate is a direct result of the country being in a state of unresolved mass trauma or PTSD. The place is like Northern Ireland but on steroids AND crack cocaine whilst being stung on the face by wasps. The best thing any young Bosnian-Herzegovinan can do is to learn a western European language and then move.
Can’t Republika Srpska peacefully unite with Serbia without any conflict? When Germany reunited in 1990 it was peaceful and the media didn’t fear-monger about it. This seems like double standards.
as a jugoslavian I never understood the people that remained Muslim in our country though. I respect them I just don't understand when we all know the ottomans raped and murdered our ancestors and forced them to convert. by remaining Muslim we are giving them what they wanted. Muslim Bosnians were not always Muslim. :(
@@arman98334 I'm not religious so I'm not siding with the Croats or Serbs etc. I'm from that area and atheist. we have family that are Bosnian Muslims and Serbs and so many say that the conflict was fueled even more so by the US because we were a thriving communist country. It's just sad that we let religious tear a beautiful country up.
@@arman98334 "it wasn't communism that led to our prosperity before milosevic, it was tito's leadership and how he managed to unite all the peoples under one flag." Tito borrowed a lot of money during the Cold war from the West to keep Yugoslavia afloat and to fund big military projects, for example, the Željava Air Base (an airbase in a mountain) which cost $6 billion USD. This borrowed money had to be paid back. Yugoslavia had trouble paying back the money and Yugoslavia ended up with hyperinflation in the late 1980`s. By 1991 the country had collapsed.
People have right to have any religion they like, and once upon a time your ancestors were not christian either. Besides, rape and murder is a methodology widely used by serbian war criminals, so why dont you leave your religion?
Yes - but also I don’t see how extreme partisan types will be sufficiently countered by people that don’t have the steel to take steps required to de-escalate from the brink
My father is Serbian and my mother is Croatian an I was born in 1995. I can tell you the fight going on here is a lot more complicated than most of you will understand. Also this war is a lot older than any of you understand.
Bosnian War took place due to West aggressively trying to break up Yugoslavia. I sometimes suspect if the resulting civil war is exactly what they planned to happen so the country is permanently weakened.
@@thejoker2214 No they didn’t what originally started the war was the Yugoslavian government tried to censor news organizations from Slovenia this made Slovenia declare independence. Yugoslavia then declared war against Slovenia which made Croatia then Bosnia and then Macedonia declare independence once the civil war started the U.S. supported the rebel factions thus helping them win. For it was not the U.S. and its organizations which started the war but it was Yugoslavia itself.
Im a Serb, I've friends in Croatia and Bosnia. I couldn't give two shits about who you pray to or why. This exact same sentiment is echoed by the vast majority of my generation. We don't want war. Fuck most ppl didn't want it back then either, at least now, we have the very recent and vivid memories warning us. In the 90s we thought the war was impossible. We watched the politicians and laughed at them, thinking "No way" and the like. Today at least we know how little it takes. Has the international community failed BiH? You bet they did, they failed Republika Srpska, even the Croats living there that often get overlooked. But enough is enough, we aint fighting this one.
Oh yes, we are fighting again, even though you might not want it war has a way of getting you. Even Milosevic did not wan't war but did that stop the croats from attacking first.
@@magatism maybe you all should get a DNA test so you can realize Serbs, Croats, and Bosniak are really at least genetically the same people. Religion is the only thing that separates you.
From what I’ve heard before, there isn’t really much difference between serbs, bosnians, and croats. They are all separate as a result of religious/political borders arbitrarily drawn up by larger world powers over the centuries.
please turn your life to Christ whilst you still can the rapture is about to happen anytime soon please repent of your sins And invite the holy spirit to make his home inside you it's not about religion its about a relationship "I am the way the truth and the life no man cometh to the farther but by me"
You've heard wrong. Native Bosnian Croats, Bosnians and Bosnian Serbs are among themselves very similar and speak the same shtokavian language and primarily classified themselves based on religion few hundred years ago. When I say I'm a Croat to Bosnians or Serbs they always picture a shtokavian Herzegovian from BiH, a group of people that share a completely separate ethnogenesis, language and culture to Croatian cultures native to the Croatian soil prior to the 16th century migrations that speak kajkavian, chakavian and schakavian languages. However, native Croats such as myself from the north share almost nothing that doesn't come from new Yugoslav culture with those other groups, and nor do Torlak Serbs who share affinity with Bulgars and Macedonians (although they are Balkan via the Ottoman Empire and we northern Croats are not.) If we weren't forced to speak the shtokavian language as it is our national standard, we would be unable to understand eachother, and we share no history or culture outside the Slavic basis and Yugoslavia with those groups (us native Croats) - culture in ex Yugoslav regions is more regional than ethnic, it will depend on the region and so will language rather than an ethnic group, therefore Serbs, Bosnians and Croats in BiH will among themselves be far more similar than their ethnic counterparts in matrix countries, something double true for Croats but also for Torlak Serbs.
Dear gods.... I thought, hoped, we had overcome this. I remember footage from this conflict when I was a kid and it hit me hard - I remember having vivid, terrifying nightmares. Just a few months before the war broke out, my family had been in Mostar. It broke my heart to see places I'd seen only a few months before being shelled, people just like those we'd gotten to know and made friends among being slaughtered. Never again. Europe can do better. Can be better.
That’s how we are and it won’t stop. Doesn’t mean you have to be pessimistic, it’s good to be optimistic or nothing good will happen. Just remember that wars end eventually and people rebuild, life goes on.
If Serbs attacked Bosnians? How is it a NATO work? Tensions existed in Balkans for thousands of years, yes powers like Russia or US can support tone or the other side, but they arent the ones creating conflicts, in the end, it was ethnic conflict.
And to think Sarajevo went from a prosperous Olympic host city in 1984 to a city in ruins, and all it took was a decade. Olympic venues shelled, a bobsleigh/luge track used as a Serb artillery position, and a podium used to award the victors of ski jumping...turned into an execution site. Surreal. No matter what we do, the Balkans will remain ethnically and culturally divided. That's just how it is. It's called the powder keg of Europe for a reason. Tito was the unifying force of Yugoslavia. When he died, his ideals of unity went with him
tito unified by force torture and the victim sacale is related but less concentrated all of the governement are guity of this events its not the fact of a single criminal they are legions
When Yugoslavia broke apart they doomed themselves to failure. If they could learn compromise, they could become a great country. Together you rise. Divided you fall.
My brother was an Bangladesh army during the bosnia war,he was sent there from un peace keeper to protect and fought for bosnia muslim people’s with all he got,He told us all the horrors of the war and specially the rape's.He told us that if something like that happens again in bosnia he will be the first one to take flight for bosnia to protect its people's...May Allah be with all the innocents.
The Serbs are very clever to make others believe that they are the sufferers and the worst of this is that other people still believe them even though they saw everything with their own eyes. Just because NATO helped us in Kosovo and Bosnia the Muslims support Serbia. Where were the Muslim brothers and sisters of the world when the Serbs killed or raped us just because we were muslims 😢🤲☝️
@@ginaibisi777bosniak are pretty racist to other people tough. That's why you don't get so much support.. And the war happened 30 years ago.... I mean...

Bosnia is such a diverse country, with lots of Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks and Herzegovinans. It's so complicated with the history and it's all also because of the Yugoslavia during the cold war why the Yugoslav wars happen, I hope this dosent turn into a big conflict, because we need to move on from Franz Ferdinand's assassination, think about this, that assassination has caused lots of things still happening now, such as North Korea, Russia Ukraine, India Pakistan, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, Syria war, Isis, Kosovo dispute and much move, but that 1 drivers wrong turn has really changed the world so much.
The thing is that when a country has many different but sizeable factions like nationalities, ethnic groups with different languages and culture, then you dont have a nation state anymore, but a Yugoslavia type of country rifling with social fricrion and waiting to xplode. Same thing happened to India-Pakistani split and many other examples

@@marcosmelendez09 funny thing is they’re all the same ethnicity: South Slavic (except Albanians). They all speak they same language (but pretend there is a difference). Their inherent culture is not that different either, the only true difference is religion (Catholics,Orthodox,Muslims). These people get brainwashed by ridiculous propaganda and then proceed to slaughter each other for no good reason.
Humans are tribal animals and will always be so. The desire to kill the males and impregnate the females of opposing tribes is I think, an evolutionary survival trait. Chimpanzees, the species that is genetically closest to humans also exhibit this behaviour.
I was in Medjugorge six years ago and there are still remnants of the war from the people's mindset. I hope this never happens again as the people were very friendly and God fearing.
2:33 the reporter said "In 1995 Dutch UN troops could not protect terrifeid bosniac civilians who had crowded into these concrete sheds at their base. They stood aside as Serb forces seperated the men and the boys from the women and took them away. To kill them." If these Dutch troops do exist then for gods sake speak up. Atleast stand up for these boys and men, now, in the safety of your homes and testify to what happend. A reporter worth a damn would get their testament on camera and post it in the video aswell. Then let these deniers explain how mass graves appeard on the same day as these men and boys were taken away. What a perfect example of "The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing". Makes me sick to be human. The intelligence to distingush what is right from wrong but no guts to stand up for it.
About deniers: Soon every bone is unearthed, DNA sequenced and identified. That, besides massive amounts of testimonies, makes this the most well documented major massacre in the world. I'm not worried about deniers, they just make fools of themselves,because truth has prevailed.

As a serbian I can say that this is politician propaganda, we do not hate or resent anyone, peace and love and may history never repeat itself, RIP to all Croatian, Bosnian lives lost to those horrific events.
The problem is corruption and nationalism. When the people start talking about how horribly we are living and the corruption and also our low wages compared to the rest of europe the politicians start talking about war. And it reaches a point where it culminatrs and we hate eachother again. Then the cycle repeats itself. It is funny how Serbs, Bosnians, Croats and Montenegrins are the same people but we are acting like we are different
Why don't BBC never go to see families of Serb victims, it's always portrayed so one-sided. Let's remind us that war started in the first place because of Bosniak separatist ideas and actions, and first victims were Serbs not Bosniaks (first big masacre was on Serbs in Sijekovac in 1992, 18 Serb children killed, beside dozen adults). There were thousands Serb civilians killed, women raped, and still Western media only talk about victims of one side. I'm not even talking about Serbs only, go ask Croats about their relatives killed by Bosniaks.
@Roc exactly bro, they don’t understand how it feels for a whole group of people being denied their history and culture. Only if they actually gave evidence rather than making spontaneous claims all around the place and victimising the oppressors.
@Roc There is no 'their' land. Made up shit-land by NATO, so they can install military and suck out resources. It's a land grab, and the war hasn't even started yet. Retaliation will be massive, never seen before.
Why don't you report on growing Bosniak nationalism? Or the perpetual Ustasha nationalism. The unilateral news that your company sends out to the world are what got us into the trouble in the first place! Also, footage of the army marching was from a celebration of the national holiday, and it has nothing to with mobilization. Please BBC, either leave us alone or be more fair and do your journalism ethically.
I will never understand why "Blue eyed and blonde hair" refugees get priority over others. Its weird to see people hate so much that forget we are all human.
Your general fear towards patriotism and lack of respect for your own country and culture is what breeds anarchy. The nordic countries, especially Sweden, are crumbling apart from within due to this. You’re a people with a complete lack of spine, submitting yourselves to treatment that would have resulted in revolution many times over in a different country. Literally the easiest people for a state to govern, you just let them walk all over you.
As a Bosniak , much love to the Serbian women and girls out there.(❤️❤️). We did not forget about the war crimes and what was done to thousands of Bosniak women and young girls.(✌️).
My heart goes out to any parent who has lost children due to war !!! Sack your governments and stop voting now ! Use your brain and dont let these politicians kill our children anymore
my family had to go through the first Bosnian war, I pray to God they don’t have to go through a second one in their life time. I wish for love and peace in my beautiful country.
This is one sided. What about Serbs' side of the story. I know some Serbs from Bosnia whose friends were killed but they were lucky that they had a Bosnian Muslim married to someone in their family, and they were spared, but their house was taken and they were expelled. They ended up being refugees and moved to America.
No, Serbs and Croat sides were convicted of systematic crimes. Bosnian side only individual. Now you can never prevent individuals from taking revenge.
@@zmajooov No kid, if you want to be part of the world and recognized by all like Bosnia, you have to accept what independent international courts say.

@@bosniak2042 Don't try to insult my intelligence, ICTY is anything but an independent court, it's a mockery of international justice.

And lastly, stop trying to hide behind the western community, that gravy train won't last much longer, your pathetic efforts at centralization have failed and you don't have the capacity to stop Serbs and Croats from leaving the increasingly islamist failed state that is Bosnia.
We fled in the last minute from the Grbavica suburbs in Sarajevo. Both my parents are from Muslim families but that really meant nothing since both my parents dated croats and serbs, befriended them and celebrated their holidays with them. My mother even sang in a choir that often sang Christian songs and orthodox songs. Unlike what nationalists claim, normal people didn't dislike each other's backgrounds and never cared for religion. Many were mixed, and even during ottoman times families that converted had sometimes only half converted. We are multiethnic and have especially in bosnia a lot in common. Even when the war broke out my parents best friend who's half Serb helped us out. A Serb family even hid some other relatives of mine. Just like there are countless Muslims that hid serbs in ww2. We shall never forget the victims of the war, and the perpetrators that did horrendous things no matter what side, but I've had enough of the lying and smoke screening. It's time for every side to have a democratic dialogue and no politician warmongering to do the talking with propaganda and fear as a tool

Serbs didn’t committed the genocide, why no one speak what Muslims did in 1993? It was a revange. But yea blame one side for everything. Is there an any right for a Serb victims?
Serbian policy of ethnic cleansing and genocide was dictated from the highest levels of political and military administration from the very beginning in 1992, thats why all the founders of so called Republika Srpska ended up in Haag. Serb leader Karadzic threatened with genocide before the war started, and as soon as it did, civilians were the main targets of the Serbian atrocities.
@@heyyo162 sorry may I ask? How do you know that because US said so? War didn’t start because of any Serbian policy but because of separatists funded by the west. Serbian soldiers didn’t go to kill bit to fight against the opposite army. Give me a break with 90s propaganda. War crimes did happen on each side, but who was punished for crimes against Serbs? None, because for the west one side is perfect other is guilty, no justice, just interest. And if Muslims didn’t kill civilians around Srebrenice since 1993. Srebrenica would never happen
The difference is many Albanian Kosovars were facing genocide in Kosovo and sought independence to avoid that (albeit there was some ethnic cleansing by them as well, though much of it was started by the Serbian/Yugoslav government), while the Republika Srpska was made by genocide and the goal of that genocide was to bring that region fully under Serbian control, so to unite them with Serbia would be to reward that genocide. Personally, it's a complicated solution that I'm not entirely sure was the best, but I definitely understand why it was done.
@@lukajolich7669 Ok wrong dude, Kosovo had A LOT more Serbs before the declaration of independence, so Kosovoars were rewarded for their ethnic cleansing.

Who benefits from these conflicts? As an Iranian I wish to see the people of former Yugoslavia (Serbs, Croats, Bosnians etc) who we feel a visceral connection to via our ancient Iranian Sarmatians come to a lasting peace and celebrate the differences (though there are more similarities than differences).
There is nothing Sarmatian about any of those groups, not genetic, not cultural and not historical. The last link between Europeans and Iranians in terms of culturogensis prior to Sarmatians were the Yamnaya cultures. A more consistent link between Iranians and Europeans is Mediterranean genetic basis for many up to 8000 years ago. No one feels any kind of connection with those groups since they have had no imprint or effect on them, at best Sarmatians had an effect on the Kievan Rus and surrounding area.
@Ayy Leeuz Just no the Iranians of the old days where known as Persians and lived in a land with a similar name. The Romans never completely conquered them they only where able to annex modern day Iraq from Persia and even then they only kept it for a few years before losing it to Persia in another war.

Don't fall for the BBC propaganda. They are fear mongering over a potential war which they have made up in their own imagination. Why you may ask? Well, to help you to agree in banning free speech under the guise of not denying a genocide which on the surface may seem like laudable idea. Tomorrow it will be a ban on free speech on something else and so on and so forth. However their aim is to slowly be able to put bans on all sorts of speech in order to control the narratives. They also want to promote Islamist movements around the world because they are seen as a tool by the left / communist ideologues to dismantle present societal structures. Why do they want to do all this? Well they want to put into place their own utopian communist society run on their own principals later on in time. However they believe they need to break down political structures, culture, and society first as it will make it easier for them to move in and reconstruct society along their own plans later. They dont want to get their own hands dirty and believe they have found a useful force in Islamists. The plan is once they have used them to get rid of them afterwards. Similar gameplans have been used successfully and unsuccessfully by successive communist regimes around the world all through the C20. Yes, its insane but thats Communists ideologues for you. In the BBC they often came out of Oxbridge which was infiltrated by Commie sympathisers going way back in time. Beware.

Ferdinand by the conspiratorial nationalist Young Bosnia organization in July 1914 led directly to World War I, which made possible the Russian Revolution. Young Bosnia inherited the Mazzinian tradition of
Young Italy. Its idealistic, nationalistic aims, quasi-Masonic forms, and ethos of youthful sacrificial dedication-all represented a reprise in the 1910s on the preceding revolutionary movements of neighboring Italy.
One of the two Young Bosnians tried for the assassination inscribed

I wish BBC had the balls to talk about the Armenian Genocide the same way they talk about this Genocide.

It's actually ironic, because the term genocide was coined by Raphael Lemkin to describe what happened to the Armenians in 1915.

@@SerboFaca1 learn to be a human being
I'm Bosnian, living in Sarajevo, I'll explain this charade:
This year elections are in Bosnia, meaning if the corrupt/nationalist politicians want to retain power, they have to rely on ideologies from 30 years ago.
Serbs do this by lies of secession and joining the Serbia,
Bosniaks do this by placing themselves as the defenders of Bosnia and islam,
Croats do this by lies of secession again.
All 3 presidents regain power this way, while stealing from the country itself for their families.
And they do this so the people forget how bad economy is, fuel is rising, basic living groceries have gone through the roof, the salaries are stagnating. So while people think that other constituent people are horrible, they forget whay the youth leaves Bosnia in the first place - we're poor, jobless, no perpective, spoonfed nationalism from our birth.
If a war breaks out (if we all don't leave Bosnia for decent work, and life of the western Europe) our presidents are the FIRST to run away leaving us, the youth to kill each other for their agenda.
Sadly as much as this sounds like common knowledge to you, my opinion is considered too naive, because I'm supposed to be suspicious of every Serb, every Croat,just as they are taught to be suspicious of every Bosniak...

I am from the Balkans, but not from the former Yugoslavia.

@@jessicajujubean5004 You might be right. I'm not sure, but I don't think the conflict between them is very old. I am not very familiar, but I think that there were no serious conflicts between Serbs and Croats in the old days, and the territory of Bosnia was then in the territories of both kingdoms. In the old days, the wars in the Balkans were mostly between my country and Serbia. Until the 19th century, Croats and Serbs were friendly peoples, I would even say brothers. Bosnia did not appear until the 12th century, I don't even know if they are a different ethnic group or just because they live in the territory with that name. In my opinion, all the problems start with the creation of Yugoslavia. Instead of becoming one nation, they are moving away from each other because some want to dominate. I guess that's human nature and there will probably always be conflicts between them.
@@svetoslavstanchev9977 Indeed, there wasn't a *visible* conflict between Serbs and Croats until the creation of Yugoslavia. I've written a paper regarding how it started. Essentially Serbs were the only one with a functional independent state, and were much more eager about Yugoslavism. Serbs formed Yugoslavia, seeing themselves as Piedmont of the Balkans - the unifying element. Whereas Croats and other groups weren't so keen. So soon Croats emerged as a particularly strong opponent of Yugoslavia, which claimed to have perceived as "oppressors". The truth is that anti-Serbism was present even before establishment of Yugoslavia, which has its' roots from Austrian-Hungarian hatred. There were riots and symbolic gestures suggesting Serbs were unwelcome in Zagreb, but also Sarajevo. It was due to intoctrination/religious affiliation.
Kingdom of Yugoslavia was a mess. Serbs were indeed dominant there (although not oppressive), with the monarchy being Serbian, which infuriated Croats. Despite that, Serbs were friendly to Croats, particularly those in Croatian lands. Croatians rejected Yugoslavism outright at a certain point. Over time, Serbs started making concessions, which ended in establishment of a Croatian corpus separatum in 1939. It quickly resulted in a proto-state being established there, with its' own paramilitary. Once Yugoslavia was crushed in Nazi invasion, a huge territory was given to the Ustasha, one of the most extreme terrorist racist organizations in history. They established a state which committed genocide of about a million civilians, looking at sheer percentage of population it was more mass scale, but less organized than the Holocaust. Mostly it resorted to unspeakably brutal violence, to which most Croats cheered to, or at least ignored it. It was not like Third Reich, where the most vile acts were a "public secret" - here it couldn't be hidden nor was it attempted to be.
Everything after WWII is just history. Groups full of resentment for each other. Muslims became a relevant factor in the whole game only after WWII.
@@svetoslavstanchev9977 Bosniaks as a people do not really exist, as a separate ethnic group. They are descendants of Serbs or Croats in one part. What separated their nationhood was conversion to islam. But it only became a nation some time after WWII. Before that, they identified as Serbs (or Croats) of Mohammedan faith.

You've heard wrong. Native Bosnian Croats, Bosnians and Bosnian Serbs are among themselves very similar and speak the same shtokavian language and primarily classified themselves based on religion few hundred years ago. When I say I'm a Croat to Bosnians or Serbs they always picture a shtokavian Herzegovian from BiH, a group of people that share a completely separate ethnogenesis, language and culture to Croatian cultures native to the Croatian soil prior to the 16th century migrations that speak kajkavian, chakavian and schakavian languages. However, native Croats such as myself from the north share almost nothing that doesn't come from new Yugoslav culture with those other groups, and nor do Torlak Serbs who share affinity with Bulgars and Macedonians (although they are Balkan via the Ottoman Empire and we northern Croats are not.) If we weren't forced to speak the shtokavian language as it is our national standard, we would be unable to understand eachother, and we share no history or culture outside the Slavic basis and Yugoslavia with those groups (us native Croats) - culture in ex Yugoslav regions is more regional than ethnic, it will depend on the region and so will language rather than an ethnic group, therefore Serbs, Bosnians and Croats in BiH will among themselves be far more similar than their ethnic counterparts in matrix countries, something double true for Croats but also for Torlak Serbs.

Genuine question: Why do Kosovo have the right to secede from Serbia, but Republika Srbska DOESN'T have the right to secede from Bosnia?
The difference is many Albanian Kosovars were facing genocide in Kosovo and sought independence to avoid that (albeit there was some ethnic cleansing by them as well, though much of it was started by the Serbian/Yugoslav government), while the Republika Srpska was made by genocide and the goal of that genocide was to bring that region fully under Serbian control, so to unite them with Serbia would be to reward that genocide. Personally, it's a complicated solution that I'm not entirely sure was the best, but I definitely understand why it was done.

@@jd7634 so don't associate the term (ethnic cleansing) to the Albanians because it is an alien term for us...Albanians have never done ethnic cleansing and have never imposed their language and tradition on any other population in our entire history
@@lagjescuni5482 *"No one chased them."* You sound like an Israeli Zionist that's trying to explain the Nakba.
Who benefits from these conflicts? As an Iranian I wish to see the people of former Yugoslavia (Serbs, Croats, Bosnians etc) who we feel a visceral connection to via our ancient Iranian Sarmatians come to a lasting peace and celebrate the differences (though there are more similarities than differences).
There is nothing Sarmatian about any of those groups, not genetic, not cultural and not historical. The last link between Europeans and Iranians in terms of culturogensis prior to Sarmatians were the Yamnaya cultures. A more consistent link between Iranians and Europeans is Mediterranean genetic basis for many up to 8000 years ago. No one feels any kind of connection with those groups since they have had no imprint or effect on them, at best Sarmatians had an effect on the Kievan Rus and surrounding area.
There are people who benefits from wars and always were.They are politicians and war leaders.
Many thanks!😍😍
It was nice to deal with you😍😍
@Ayy Leeuz Just no the Iranians of the old days where known as Persians
and lived in a land with a similar name.
The Romans never completely conquered them they only where able to annex modern day Iraq from Persia
and even then they only kept it for a few years before losing it to Persia in another war.
Born in the 90’s in Sarajevo … history repeats 😔 Hope this doesn’t happen
each three generation the istory repeat its endless until some survey
I am sorry to break it to you,buddy,but GENOCIDE and mass RAPES did happen in Bosnia!!
He said genocide 8K souls makes genocide but 1.5-2mil is a massacre!!! Yes that makes sense…
Research what genocide means, educate yourself and come back for a chat. It’s not about numbers, it’s but about intentions.
@@everystack Yes but like Chios massacre against Greeks is not genocide even though Turks wanted to destroy them as always
I wonder what you are referring to? 1.5-2mil armenians? No one on the balkans denies it was a genocide.
