DID YOU KNOW?  -- Three years before the 1995 Srebrenica Genocide, Serbs torched Bosniak villages and killed at least 3,166 Bosniaks around Srebrenica. In 1993, the UN described the besieged situation in Srebrenica as a "slow-motion process of genocide." In July 1995, Serbs forcibly expelled 25,000 Bosniaks, brutally raped many women and girls, and systematically killed 8,000+ men and boys (DNA confirmed).

DAVE MAAT: SREBRENICA BABY GRAVES?

Serbs show a traditional three-finger Chetnik sign in support of General Ratko Mladic who is indicted on two counts of genocide (Prijedor Genocide, Bratunac Genocide, Srebrenica Genocide, and other massacres). Serbian Chetniks were Nazi collaborators in World War II. They hunted down Jews and committed a genocide against the Bosnian Muslim population of eastern Bosnia and Sanjak region.


Notice to The Irish Times: Charges against Gen. Ratko Mladic do not relate "specifically to the Srebrenica massacre and the siege of Sarajevo", but to genocide in several districts in Bosnia-Herzegovina (not only Srebrenica)

Now, back to the story: IrishTimes.com reported that:

"Sixteen years after the massacre of 8,000 men and boys in the Bosnian 'safe haven' of Srebrenica, the worst atrocity in Europe since the second World War, the Dutch defence minister has agreed to reveal the whereabouts of a mass grave believed to contain at least seven bodies.

Hans Hillen promised to make public the location of the grave 'in a few days' after a former member of Dutchbat, the UN battalion charged with protecting the enclave in July 1995, claimed the ministry of defence had been suppressing the information. The claim was made by Dave Maat, a soldier who served with Dutchbat III..."

Big Question: Could this discovery be related to Bosniak babies who died while Serb soldier herded and terrorized refugees in Potocari? If so, will these babies be included in the official list of 8,372 Srebrenica genocide victims If no, why not?
