How long was the Bosnian genocide?
Bosnian Genocide is used to refer either to the genocide committed by Bosnian Serb forces in Srebrenica in 1995, or to ethnic cleansing that took place during the 1992-1995 Bosnian War. Elections in 1990 brought nationalists to power in Croatia and Slovenia, which, together with Macedonia, declared independence in 1991 and were all recognised internationally. Alija Izetbegovic, the leader of Bosnia's multi-ethnic government, called for independence for Bosnia, too; it was recognised as independent by the USA and the EU in 1992. Bosnia was the victim of one group's determined wish for political domination, which it was prepared to achieve by isolating ethnic groups and if necessary exterminating them.
What happened during the Bosnian Genocide?
Bosnian War is not the Bosnian GenocideThe Bosnian War was from March 1, 1992 – December 14, 1995, which was a period of three years. However, the genocides were particular events during the war, that took place in the cities of Srebrenica and Žepa for only a few days. The Massacre at Srebrenica took place on July 11-13, 1995 and the Massacre at Žepa took place on July 25, 1995. Now, the fact that these massacres were only a few days long should not be seen to minimize the 8,489 Bosniaks who were butchered in these two massacres.Causes of the Bosnian WarThe Bosnian War was a civil war between the three major ethnic groups of Bosnians: Bosnian Serbs (who are Orthodox Christians), Bosnian Croats (who are Catholic Christians), and Bosnian Bosniaks (who are Sunni Muslims). For the most part the civil war pitted the Serbs against the Croats and Bosniaks. The underlying reason for this conflict was that, by and large, the Serbs wanted to keep Bosnia as a part of Yugoslavia and Greater Serbia whereas the Croats and Bosniaks wanted Bosnia to remain a multifaith and independent country. As a result, all of militants from all three sides engaged in small acts of ethnic cleansing. Eventually, on the Serb side, this rose to the level of genocide when Serb troops overtook the Bosniak-majority cities of Srebrenica and Žepa and executed the Bosniak civilian population.
Who were the people involved in the Bosnia genocide?
There were many events which have been described as genocides during the Bosnian war. Many of these were carried out by Bosnian Serbs often with the support of the Yugoslavian Army (who are mostly Serbians). Other attacks which were described as genocide were carried out by Croatian Bosnians and also some by Bosnian Muslims (Bosniaks). The definition of 'genocide' is not clear and because all wars can be 'dirty' it is hard to say what was a genocide and what wasn't but it's probably fair to say that all sides commited some dirty acts.
Why is Serbia accused of genocide?
Because during the 1990's war between the Yugoslavian nations, Serbia murdered alot of Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica and the media caught it making Serbian people look horrible
