Like Independent UN forces (the DUTCH) helped the Bosnian's in Screbinitza (sp), . . .

I'm not going to argue for a new UN force in the ME, William, but the verb you have in that sentence is simply, flat out wrong. The UN forces did not "help", the Bosnian Serbs (it was the Serbs), they were held hostage.

Some things we know are true; much we don't. It helps to keep the true things we know are true straight.
