Country:
1.If Serbia was aggressor in Bosnia than Bosnian Serbs would have unlimited human reserve pool.
2.You would have army formations from Serbia in Bosnia.
3.You will have unlimited supplies of arms to Serbians.
4.You would have total control over Bosnian Serbians from Belgrade.

Nothing of this is true.
1. Bosnian Srbs allways had problem with reserves. There were volunteers from Serbia but not in needed numbers. Some of older people I knew what to go but they where not accept even they past all test, when tehy ask why they get answer it is government policy not to allow to many volunteers because we are not in war.
2.Some paramilitary formations were in Bosnia but nothing like JEDINICE HRVATSKOG VEĆA ODBRANE( croatian military units) at Mostar.

3. Bosnian Serbs didnt have high tech stuff. They had big guns but very soon UN force them not to use them. On contrast muslims (at begin of war poorly equip) thanks to money for Saudi, Iran and UAE by state of the art ATGM and snipers. Srebrenica was taken by couple of tanks and in Srebrenica was one muslim division. So if Serbia was aggressor I would expect more new stuff in arsenal of Bosnian Serbs.

4. In second half of 1993 Bosnian Serbs werent under control of Belgrade. 6 may 1993 they didnt accept Vens-Owen plan even Milosevic forced them to accept it.
It is well know that in 1994 Serbia impose sanctions to Bosnian Serbs.

In realty Serbia act in Bosnia in same way are arab states or Croatia.

P.S. I would never compare Dubrovnik to Vukovar. In Dubrovnik casualties are very small and everything can be repair except human life. To me Vukovar was big stupid mistake of JNA and comparison with Stalingrad in tactical way is same.

Vlad, dweller of the land east of the Drina. I completely fail to see your point. Are you saying Slavonia,one of the counties of Croatia doesn't exist. What provocative fictional facts did I come up with ? Everything I posted here is actual fact not some kind of revisionist nationalistic substitute.

So i don't post up facts instead revisionist nationalistic substitutes ?

If you look at your previous post, you go into explaining to me that i don't know what the difference is between SLAVONIA and SLOVENIA. And if you still think that i was talking about SLAVONIA, then I really don't know where you get your "facts" from, nor that you have the basic understanding of this issue/topic.

Please prove me wrong, I'd be glad to admit if I am.

Well then, must be a typical misunderstanding that occurs so frequently, it seems, on topics such as this one.
