[ The Bosnian Congress, USA, is an association of American

supports the one and the only legitimate will of the Bosnian =

Analysis: "BOSNIA STORM" 10 =
Date: September 2, 1996.
INTRODUCTION
The Republic of Bosnia-Herzegovina is most often simply called =
Bosnia (a short form); that shall be also the case in this text. =
During 1992 Bosnia had been recognized by more than 90 governments =
worldwide, European Community, United Nations, many international =
institutions, etc. The US Administration of President George Bush =
recognized Bosnia on April 7, 1992. The United Nations made it a =
full member state on May 22, 1992.
This article represents the effort of Bosnian citizens and refugees, =
to break the informative blockade =96 to state the truth about the =
Dayton documents written by the Clinton Administration and signed =
during November 1995 by Alija Izetbegovic, Muhamed Sacirbey, Haris =
Silajdjic on behalf of the Bosnian citizens. American People were =
never informed that in the time of the Dayton conference - behind =
the closed doors - all the telephone and fax lines were cut off by =
some invisible power.
Terminology that is used in those Dayton documents, such as: =
"entities in Bosnia", "peace", "Serb Republic", "economic help", =
etc., reveal that the Dayton papers are reaching further beyond =
an agenda of a "peace" document -- Dayton documents deal with the =
constitution of the victim state. This is hidden from, not only =
the Bosnians, but Americans as well, especially the ones who would =
never freely accept one or a few goals of a foreign state as their =
own. Documents made in the USA are now added to the Serbian war =
pressure since they are now also a part of the US Administration =
"peace" pressure imposed on the victim state and its citizens. =
Thus, the Bosnian citizens are now being coerced by Bill Clinton =
(and their acting President Izetbegovic) to participate in the =
September elections, in which they are about to sign their own =
death sentence because the September elections are the plebiscite =
and census planned to terminate the one and the only legitimate =
Constitution of 1974/1991, that has been recognized by the =
international community during 1992. That is about to happen =
after four years of unsuccessful use of force against one =
parliamentary state and its citizens. =
Verbal promises, together with the somewhat wider territory
around Sarajevo, are given to Bosnian citizens by the Dayton =
agreement in exchange for something much more important: the =
loyalty of the Bosnian citizens to their Constitution. Ironically, =
this is but their signature to Karadjic's project as stated in =
Dayton's "legal" framework. [Note: Radovan Karadzic is the leader =
of the Bosnian Serb aggressor, internationally declared war =
criminal and perpetrator of genocide who commenced and executed =
the genocide demanding that "three Bosnias" be recognized by the =
International institutions.]
Against this project, now run by the US Administration, the Bosnian
opposition parties and we, the Bosnian refugees abroad, have only =
one weapon on our side: making a little bit of problems (a minor =
irritation?) for all of them. It is a fact that the division of
Bosnia, and the creation of new states within it, must be a =
formally legal process agreed to by the victim state itself. It =
is also a fact of international law that all individuals who declare =
themselves as loyal citizens of Bosnia (census 1991) are the only =
legitimate subjects who can legally sign for the termination of =
Bosnia in its constitutional form =96 as it existed before the =
aggression, and as it has been recognized by the international =
community during 1992. Thus, approx. one thousand years of Bosnian =
statehood and continuity (in various forms) is about to be =
terminated with the Dayton documents and the upcoming travesty =
of justice named "elections", scheduled for September 14, 1996.
Having stated that, we shall use this opportunity to thank the
American People for their support =96 which provided a sharp contrast
to the covert (and overt) activities of their Administration.
METHODS THAT THE US ADMINISTRATION USES TO IMPLEMENT =
MILOSEVIC-KARADJIC PROJECT IN BOSNIA
Insisting on Karadjic's removal from power is simply a "snow job"
-- a way for his project to become legal and free of war
crimes attributes. Declarations of the UN, Warren Christopher and =
European Community, that they intend to "punish acts of genocide", =
to "side with victims and uphold their legal rights", and to =
"bring the guilty before the court", are all contradictory to the =
true intentions of the Dayton project, which are "justification",
"legalization" (via internationally valid, signed documents) of
the Serb war goal. That Serb goal is to build a state (Serb =
Republic) on the collective graves of innocent people, their =
victims. This contradiction between public declarations and the =
truth, is at the center of events in Bosnia.
More importantly, those who uphold the Dayton documents now use
various methods to prepare Bosnians for the big loss to come.
Those methods include (but are not limited to) the following:
-- Building a statelet/ghetto called "Bosnia" based on terminology
that is not legal (i.e., "entities") within the territory of a
rendered Republic. Bosnians are expected to sign away their
statehood that was once recognized by the West, in favor of
"entities" that do not exist in any single UN document at all.
-- Letting the Serb Republic (formed by Dayton documents) =
exchange food, water, electricity and such, with Bosnia to
obtain internationally valid papers legalizing its existence.
This goal was clear in the Dayton documents and simply serves to
blockade and blackmail Sarajevo (as a capital with a Parliament,
media and a University) so as to exchange the statehood papers
of the Republic for the aforementioned (basic human survival)
commodities.
-- Providing for the illegal "facts on the ground" to become the
facts of law. Now NATO and the US Administration of Bill Clinton
give the "Bosnian Serbs" that which Karadjic/Mladic/Milosevic
failed to do in Bosnia after facing a resistance sufficient enough
for Bosnia to survive. That resistance was NOT foreseen by the
planners of the genocide. The rashly formed Bosnian Army =96-
disciplined, civilized, multi-ethnic, efficient -- became a
dangerous negation to the expected "Yugoslav Army victory against
an amorphous unarmed mass of Bosnians".
[Note: It is also deliberately disregarded by "the West" that
there were hundreds of thousands of Bosnian Serbs (and Croats)
loyal to the civic Republic and its legitimate government at the
outset of the aggression. However, only followers of Serb
ultra-nationalistic leaders are mentioned and called summarily the
"Bosnian Serbs".]
=
-- Neutralizing the Constitution of the victim state by negotiating
about it, instead of confronting the aggression. The aggression,
together with war crimes, was supposed to be judged in front of the
World Court, the proper place for international disagreements. But
this course of action was avoided by:
a) Boutros Boutros Ghali's United Nations strategy of sidestepping =
the legal issues by redefining a political and legal problem of =
war/genocide to a "humanitarian problem". That strategy illegally =
EXCLUDED BOSNIA (the UN member state) FROM THE POLITICAL AND LEGAL =
PROTECTION OF THE UN CHARTER.
b) redefining aggression to a "civil war";
c) redefining the Bosnian government to a "Muslim government";
d) renaming the Bosnians and their secular Army to a "Muslim" Army,
assuming that Bosnians in the future can count on religious autonomy
only, but not legal protection (requires religion to be separated
from state). Contrary to that, the Serbs and Croats kept their =
national/statehood names and were never called Orthodox Christians =
or Catholic Christians. So innocent people of Bosnia, against =
their will, were deliberately pushed out of the protection given =
them by their Constitution and the UN Charter. Instead, they were =
given protection that only their mosques (destiny) can provide. So, =
after losing legal ground of the UN Charter and after losing civic =
state, Bosnia itself, if they ever try to return to their homes, =
the next name they can expect from the UN legal system (and US =
Administration) will be: "THE ISLAMIC TERRORISTS".
[Note: Amongst other acts of war/torture against a UN member state, =
the UN/NATO held a totally illegitimate arms embargo against the =
army and police (even the firefighters!) of formally recognized
member of the international community for the entire duration of =
mass murder of its citizens. Four years (1992-1996) of the =
UN/NATO sea-air-land blockade of the Bosnian Army and Police Force =
is an act of war by basic textbook teachings of any military =
academy =96 by definition and by default.]
-- Separating the war crime trials from the political problems =
the war poses. That is a strategy that can be viewed as the =
"inefficiency of the international community". However, this =
diversion only boosts Gen. Mladic and Karadjic's morale, both of =
whom talk about the sovereignty of the Serb Republic. This is a =
clear sign of outside support and the true meaning of the Dayton =
documents. Rhetoric about how the "important parts" of the Dayton =
documents are being adhered to, such as how NATO troops are on =
guard inside (not outside!) Bosnia's borders, is meant to show how =
the project is a success. Meanwhile, the return of refugees to =
their homes has become the least important part of the agreement. =
Every agreement should be considered null and void, if any part of =
it is not completed/realized.
=
-- Blocking from any action and free speech all the critics who
might notice that NATO, UN, OSCE, Richard Holbrook, Warren
Christopher, Karl Bildt, and the US Administration in fact are NOT
inefficient but EFFICIENT in their completion of a job. This gag
order is in direct alliance with the Greater Serbia and Greater
Croatia project. Such "inefficiency" silences the opposition
parties, legal action of the Bosnian High Court in Sarajevo,
prevents return of refugees to their homes, chokes the freedom of
press/speech, puts surviving population in despair, etc.
-- Confronting questions having to do with the defense of the
(one and the only legitimate) Constitution of 1974/1991 with
answers from the Dayton documents. This is done regardless of
the fact that all "peace" agreements, including the Dayton
documents, are irrelevant constitutional topics. Bosnians will
end up accepting the Dayton documents (and its even more eroded
form) as a substitution for their last (and the only) legal
Constitution due to this "exchange of constitutions" that salesman
Holbrook sold to the American People as a "peace agreement".
-- Hiding the fact that the subject of Dayton talks (held behind
closed doors) was Bosnia's Constitution, by calling it a "peace
agreement" even though it formally establishes two new states (and
their constitutions). [ Note: Legislative, Judicial and Executive
powers on a given territory make for a state and not an "entity".
The term "entity" is from the Dayton document.]. Also, the Dayton
documents that outline a Presidency and Parliament in UNION of
states have not much in common with legitimate institutions of any
state; at best, UNION is NOT a state but only UNION of states.
The way this UNION is formulated in Dayton, and further redefined
during 1996 (to the detriment of Bosnians), does not make this
UNION anything more than a vehicle, a tool, a temporary legalistic
step, towards "legitimate" destruction of the Republic and its
citizens. It is actually a prelude to the formation and
international recognition of Greater Serbia and Greater Croatia.
De facto it is already so =96 we are now only helplessly observing
motions to make it also a de jure "new reality".
=
-- Hiding the fact that these elections are more than the voting
they are proclaimed to be. According to the Dayton documents,
these elections are a plebiscite and referendum favoring the Dayton
"constitution" vs. the one and the only legitimate Constitution.
So defined elections cannot be the subject of a peace agreement.
These elections are also a plebiscite that will neutralize the
internationally sponsored, monitored and approved March 1, 1992
plebiscite. After the March 1, 1992 vote, the formal recognition
of the Republic became obligatory even for Russia and Greece.
Later on, Russia and Greece were described to the American People
as the "Serb allies who must be respected" in a campaign to reject
the Bosnians=92 desperate pleas for a permission to defend themselves
against the perpetrators of the genocide ("Lift the arms embargo!").
=
-- Influencing election results by forcing all parties in the
election campaign to comply with the demands of the Dayton documents
-- the new Dayton "constitution" that has yet to be voted on. OSCE
also violates Bosnian election laws by judging the behavior of
Bosnian political parties; OSCE makes those interventions not in
accordance with the actual Constitution but with Dayton's
constitutional demands, -- again a code that has yet to be voted
on (and therefore, in terms of law, powerless).
=
-- The OSCE and other international political structures behind
this body (though the OSCE should be the only mediator) are
dictating all elements and terms of the election campaign favoring
those parties already supporting the division of Bosnia. The
recent OSCE complaint, in which the OSCE is only "protesting"
against the violation of refugees' rights to free movement, also
contains strict proposals that harm opposition parties which are
clearly supporting an integral Bosnia. On August 26th, the OSCE
published a list of hundreds of opposition candidates who are NOT
allowed to be included on the ballots because, according to the
OSCE, "they failed to prove that they were citizens of Bosnia back
in 1991". Among those banned was Dr. Ivo Komsic - a Croat member
of the Bosnian seven member Presidency (!); Bogic Bogicevic -- a
Bosnian Serb representative of Bosnia in the Yugoslav presidency;
Professor Dr. Zlatko Lagumdjija =96 Deputy Prime Minister at the
beginning of the war, etc. These politicians, democratically
elected officials (1990 elections!), are serious opponents of
ethnic division and are leaders of major political parties. With
a coalition, those opposition parties are threatening to defeat
Izetbegovic and dismantle the idea that ethnic territories can
become states within Bosnia, or that three sovereign peoples (fully
protected by the legitimate Bosnian Constitution) can form
sovereign states through the use of genocide.
YES, THE CONSPIRACY AND CONSPIRACIES DO EXIST
Discussion about the mentioned scheming methods is unpopular
and not so readily acceptable only if one is unaware of, or has
forgotten, the efforts of the UN and EU to redefine all elements
of the Bosnian war over the last five years. There is no space
or time here for a thorough elaboration, but let us remind you of
some of their methods and concepts. That reminder will enable
observers to expect Bosnians to vote for Karadjic's Plan:
=
-- Bosnia was recognized not out of love for Bosnia or Bosnians
but out of necessity, considering that the recognition of
independence of the states that constituted the Yugoslav federation
(SFRY) was legitimate, since Yugoslavia consisted of six states
(six different constitutions and parliaments). For Bosnia to be
divided, Tudjman and Milosevic required that three "entities" be
FABRICATED inside Bosnia in order to justify the legality of its
internal division. They intended to make it as legal as in case
of Yugoslavia. Thus, Milosevic created the Serb Republic and
Tudjman created the Herzeg-Bosnia Croatian para-state.
=
-- It was known that amongst the Bosnians there was one man who,
if supported, could supply the necessary signatures for that
plan. Alija Izetbegovic was that man. After being propped up to
the highest position in the Republic (1990), indeed, he commenced
working on that assignment. He gave four major signatures
countering the Bosnian Constitution that he was sworn in to uphold.
His major international signatures towards that unconstitutional
and destructive goal were:
Lisbon 1992, Geneva 1993, Washington 1994, Dayton 1995.
In order to cover up his tracks, Izetbegovic was and still is,
always misinterpreting those signatures after coming back to
the Bosnian capital Sarajevo. The first three times , Parliament
refused those signatures -- but accepted the last one (on the
Contact Group first draft in 1994) after Izetbegovic promised that
it was only a formal acceptance. Izetbegovic stated: "the Serb
side would refuse it anyway". Outside Bosnia, Izetbegovic
meanwhile campaigned with world leaders to force the Serbs to
accept that the Contact Group plan (which called for a 49:51 %
territorial division of Bosnia-Herzegovina). As the time passed,
the Serb "war machine" proved itself to be a "war crime machine" =96
Izetbegovic's policy came in jeopardy. The turning point came
when Serb General Mladic started to lose the war with Bosnia and
Croatia on a much larger scale than was acceptable for the
European strategists for "Serbia's leading role in the Balkans".
In addition to that, the Bosnian Army 5th Corps defended Bihac.
The "UN Safe Haven" of Bihac did not fall, contrary to William
Perry's statement in late 1994. Bosnia did not lose the ground war,
although the sponsors of Greater Serbia, such as British Foreign
Minister Douglas Hurd, proclaimed them victors and used that false
proclamation as an argument for why Bosnia must accept ethnic
divisions. And it became clear that the "facts on the ground"
were soon going to lead to a much smaller Serbia than was
acceptable for the major Greater Serbia sponsors, UK and France.
During 1995 it was clear that after (Croatian leader) Tudjman's
military disaster in central Bosnia (1993/early 1994), the opening
of a new front against Bosnia once again was out of the question.
[ Reminder: The first time it was done from late 1992, throughout
1993 up to early 1994 by Tudjman.] In 1995 Croatia got a new role:
After Bihac's Bosnian Army 5th Corps defeated Croatian Serbs in
Krajina, it was Croatia (not Bosnia) that got the mandate (and arms)
by the USA to "win the war" in the Krajina. The cold military fact
is that the only fighting in the Krajina region during the four
years (1992-1995) was done by the Bihac enclave defenders, the
Bosnian Army 5th Corps, against the Croatian and Bosnian Serbs.
Arming muslims with Iranian supplies was in fact arming Croatia =96
as the US Administration declared Croatia to be the "new authority
in the region". Even before that declaration was made, Tudjman's
"some criminals" in Herzegovina controlled weapons transferred to
the Bosnian Army. In return for those military supplies, as well
as food and medicaments for its population, Bosnia was giving up
its statehood to the Greater Croatia project. That Croatian
"marvelous victory" in Krajina (summer 1995) was the first totally
visible open partnership of the Clinton=92s Administration with the
Croatian ultra-nationalist leader Franjo Tudjman.
Everything about Croatia and Serbia's exchange of suspicious
"victories" and territories would have been just fine if the truly
victorious 5th and 7th Corps of the Bosnian Army in West Bosnia
were hindered from pushing the Serbs too far from the Mt. Vlasic
and Mt. Grmec early in 1995. Those Bosnian masterful victories
upset the advocates of a divided Bosnia in the UK, France and
Germany (yes, Klaus Kinkel, German Foreign minister, is the father
of the UNION Contact group plan, today also known as the Dayton
Plan). The Bosnian victories led to panic in european capitals,
and a demand was launched to the US to "do something in Bosnia".
That phrase, "to do something in Bosnia", was also popular among
the majority of American People. However, the American People had
something noble in mind: they wanted US Administration to do
something FOR Bosnia, not AGAINST Bosnia (as signaled from the
european capitals). Indeed, there was a very real possibility
that the US Congress could lift the arms embargo. Lo and behold,
the Clinton Administration (already having switched to the =
Croatia-Germany plan for Bosnia during 1993) turned against the =
US Congress and the People by doing the wrong (totally opposite) =
"something" in Bosnia. In order to undermine the already voted-on =
Congress decision for lifting of the arms embargo, the Clinton
Administration performed a military exercise (a la British UN
General Michael Rose: with no casualties to Mladic's infantry)
selecting some "infrastructure objects" for bombardment.
The true goal of that military exercise (a.k.a. NATO pin prick
air strikes, summer of 1995) was this: the Bosnian Parliament,
Army and the People would be required to accept Izetbegovic's plan,
a plan that the USA ("Bosnia's friend") would guarantee. The
"American friendship" was finally "proven" by the "bombardment"
of dozen or so of Gen. Mladic's warehouses and several abandoned
WW II tanks. Now, "obliged" by that fiery display of "friendship",
the Bosnians would be offered the papers, the Dayton documents, to
sign on to the goal that Serb Gen. Mladic's troops spent four
years killing (unarmed) people: recognition of the Serb Republic.
=
However, this concept of US "friendship" to Bosnians had its side
effects:
