Whole article is propaganda

Frankly, the entirety of this page and section is nothing but propaganda. I served for UNPROFOR in that region and trust me, the number of Serb victims in the area was not "falsified" or exaggerated. According to the RDC, 3,500 Serbs were killed of which 1,000 were civilian victims. The entire article presents massively one side of the story (and I understand why, of course) but nonetheless this is supposed to be educational for people, not a pity parade or a propagandistic attempt to deny ALL ELSE that happened before and after the events in July 1995. This page honestly has almost no academic value to, really, anybody but Bosnian Muslims or Bosnian Muslim nationalists. Indeed, the entire page seems to have been written with the blind nationalism of the 1990's revisited, of which the Muslims certainly fell prey to back then. In any event, the entirety of this article is comically one sided. It is as if the Bosnian Ministry of Information wrote the article themselves. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.187.101.222 (talk) 18:23, 19 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you unsigned above. I have moved the Renaming heading and put in another - I hope that's OK. Plenty of evidence that shows the "Srebrenica massacre" was a fraud, but it's quite hard to find discussion by just Googling (wonder why). Here's one article: http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-srebrenica-massacre-was-a-gigantic-political-fraud/5321388. Bougatsa42 (talk) 19:17, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Frankly, you are a FRAUD. To begin with, you never served in UNPROFOR. The number of Serv victims is bogus and falsified because if know Serves, they would have shrines to these so called victims. Point us to these so-called victims. There plethora of evidence supporting the truthiness of this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.156.40.48 (talk) 15:35, 11 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can confirm - whole article is propaganda and one sided view. Sources are very questionable and unreliable. Article represents Bosniak side of story, exclusively, not objective facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by XerJoff (talk • contribs) 18:03, 2 December 2017 (UTC) — XerJoff (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Bougatsa42, Edward S. Herman is not reliable, at least not on the topic of Srebrenica and Rwanda (he also openly denied the Rwandan genocide). Herman and co. allow themselves extraordinary latitude in dismissing vast quantity of information, cherry picking certain things (which often are true—uncontroversial even, among knowledgeable scholars), thus supposedly exposing Americas conspiracy to dominate the entire world.

Uglemat, You have not explained why Edward S. Herman is not reliable. It's curious that you dismiss out of hand the idea that the powerful want more power, though not relevant to this discussion. Bougatsa42 (talk) 05:32, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate article

Looks like Bosnian genocide is duplicate article on the same subject. Soarwakes (talk) 08:10, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is about the specific event, the other is about the broader phenomenon, there may though be duplication of info. Pincrete (talk) 08:16, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
