Comments on: Bosnia’s forgotten Serb victims http://www.belgradefvc.com/blog/bosnias-forgotten-serb-victims The community for foreigners in Belgrade, Serbia Thu, 02 Feb 2012 09:03:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: jd http://www.belgradefvc.com/blog/bosnias-forgotten-serb-victims/comment-page-1#comment-883 jd Tue, 02 Mar 2010 12:31:41 +0000 http://www.belgradefvc.com/bosnias-forgotten-serb-victims#comment-883 Dear Fini, I allowed your comment because it is, ironically, a great example of a lie. Anti-Serb elements frequently post quote as an example of Serb evil. It is posted to look like Dobrica Cosic said this himself, as though he is espousing these views. The truth is that this is a quote from a fictional novel. You are quoting a factional character from the novel Deobe (1961). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dobrica_%C4%86osi%C4%87#Famous_quote Dear Fini,

We lie for love and honesty. We lie because freedom. The lie is the trait of our patriotism and the proof of our innate smartness. We lie creatively, imaginatively, inventively.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-1MXn3NWoA&feature=player_embedded Dobrica Cosic

His scant use of primary sources is enough to dismiss the writing as propaganda rather than a serious addition to the history. http://srebrenica-genocide.blogspot.com/2009/11/alexander-dorin-discredited-genocide.html Don't take this as the only view, use it as a stepping stone to verify the data. It's all available, if you care to look. Bit late to mention- but Alexander Dorin’s research, largely based on the writings of Milivoje Ivanisevic, have long been discredited.

Initially the claim was hundreds of deaths, this accusation was shown to be grossly exaggerated. The original documentation of the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) clearly shows that in fact military victims highly outnumber the civilian ones. The document entitled “Warpath of the Bratunac brigade”, re the Jan 7th battle puts the military victims at 35 killed and 36 wounded; the number of civilian victims of the attack is eleven. Naser Oric's trial records provides a detailed analysis of the military exchanges around Srebrenica, none of which support the accusations of terrorism unlike the practice that swept away so many lives down the Drina, Una and Bosna rivers and impersonally buried around the surroundings of Srebrenica. Let all mourn for the loss of lives lost to the greed and blindness of violence.
