Untold Stories

i. Croatia and the Bosnian Croats have helped the Bosnian Muslim community more than anyone else: aid for refugees and military assistance. Croatia has spent almost twice as much as the United States for the care of Bosnian refugees ($850 million vs. $450 million in two years through year-end 1993) with an economy that is some 1/700 of the U.S. economy. Croatian military assistance to Bosnian Muslims prior to the spring of 1993 is an open secret.

ii. The Croatian Defence Council (HVO) saved Bosnia from being completely overrun by the Serbs. The HVO, army recognized by the Bosnian Government, was the only organized army in Bosnia and Herzegovina carrying out actions against the Yugoslav Peoples Army and Serb militia until late summer of 1992, when the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina began forming.

iii. Human interest stories with focus on Croats, and especially Bosnian Croats.

iv. Position of the Catholic Church in Croatia and in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the war, and on local and international media reporting about the war.

v. Position of Fikret Abdic who was the most popular politician in Bosnia and Herzegovina prior to the war, and stepped aside for Alija Izetbegovic to become President of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

vi. Mainstream opposition in Croatia.
