Re: Kosovo is the past? Geeze - the smoke has barely cleared from our bombing raids.

It was a just war... Albanians constitute a hapless Muslim minority in the heart of Europe --apart from the USA, WHO would have taken care of them??

As you said, the dust has barely settled and talks are already underway to bring Serbia aboard the EU bandwagon --while Turkey is contemptuously kept on the "waiting list"....

Forensic Team Exhumes Bodies in Bosnia


SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) - Forensic experts have recovered more than 100 sacks of human remains from several mass graves in eastern Bosnia, an official from the Muslim Commission for Missing Persons said Sunday.

Murat Hurtic said the victims are believed to be Muslims from Srebrenica, the site of one of the most horrific atrocities during Bosnia's 1992-1995 war.

Forensic experts, who have been working on the exhumations for several weeks, said it would not be possible to determine exactly how many bodies were in the graves or to identify any of the victims until DNA analyses had been completed.

In the latter part of the Bosnia war, Srebrenica was declared a safe haven by the United Nations (news - web sites), and thousands of Muslims flocked to the town to escape Serb attacks. Then, in July 1995, Bosnian Serb soldiers rounded up and executed up to 8,000 men. Six years later, thousands are still unaccounted for.
