- It's easy to see that the story is war propaganda. _Only_
- Muslim and Croatian women are raped. _Only_ Serbians do the
- raping, and under government orders, too. The dateline is,
- of course, Zagreb -- the capital of Croatia.
-
- Atrocity stories can be believed only when they describe
- both, or all sides, as committing the atrocities, or when
- the perpetrators and the reporters are from the same side
- (e.g. My Lai 4). War consists largely of murder, arson,
- rape, theft, and other forms of wanton destruction, and
- no doubt the leaders of Serbia, Bosnia, and Croatia should
- be put on trial if possible, since they all contributed to
- starting the present war. But the idea that Serbians are
- somehow worse than other people is absurd. They're just
- equally as bad.
