So, Disperse the Fog Over Mostar

The meeting of Izetbegović, Čović, Ivanić, Kitarović, and Vučić in Mostar was bilateral. On one side Izetbegović, on the other everyone else. It was like that with the late Alija Izetbegović as well. Owen recorded it in his memoirs, but other international negotiators also noticed it. On one side him, on the other Milošević, Tuđman, Boban, and Karadžić. Just like this time with Bakir Izetbegović. One might say: The four of them, me, and dad alone.

It is trilateral for the three from BiH, because Čović and Ivanić are regularly bilateral towards their own homeland.    

The division into two sides was most visible at the press conference. It looked as if Serbia and Croatia and their lackeys in BiH had no problems whatsoever. Everything was light, gentle, and harmonious. The circus organized by Čović at the highest political level had only one goal: to humiliate the country he presides over and to make Bosniaks the lonely guardians of Bosnia and Herzegovina.    

A few days ago, Croat media wrote that their compatriots are not present in Republika Srpska.

Everything written about the disappearance of Croats from Republika Srpska is just a sad echo of what the honorable Bishop Franjo Komarica recently told the public of Croatia, also accusing the current Zagreb policy for such a situation. But, soon there will be talk about ethnically cleansed Croats in Republika Srpska, and then the focus will shift back to the Federation, and the targets will be placed on Sarajevo and Bosniaks.   

It should be said that more than 250,000 Croats were expelled from Republika Srpska in 1992. Today, the disappearance of Croats is mentioned in the Croatian media, as if they were warmed up and evaporated, not expelled with numerous and massive crimes. Croats are increasingly leaving Brčko as well, where they remained during the hardest war days. This is definitely a cleansing from the so-called northern corridor, from Bosanska Posavina, which Tuđman had long sold to Milošević. Publicly and openly.    

More than 740,000 Bosniaks were expelled from their homes in 1992, along with terrible crimes, killings, rapes, and concentration camps. That was a third of the Bosniak people according to the 1991 census in BiH. That third of the displaced people will be definitively lost in the second or third generation.

Whoever is crying now about the departure of the youth should not have stopped crying since 1992.

What kind of reconciliation was Čović talking about during this meeting in Mostar? He, Ivanić, Kitarović, and Vučić need to reconcile with the verdicts of the Hague Tribunal. They divided this country and made it dysfunctional and insecure. All injustices are still alive.

Therefore, a request should be urgently sent to the European Parliament to establish a stance on the verdicts for genocide, joint criminal enterprise, and aggression. This would determine the attitude towards BiH's path to the European Union, and eliminate the demands of Čović and his Croatian lobbyists for new divisions of this country.

However, for too long, Bosniak politics has not mentioned the Hague Tribunal verdicts against Mladić for genocide and Prlić for the joint criminal enterprise, from November last year. Why? Why do we have international verdicts, but no answers to four years of rampaging through our BiH?
