      There can be no peace until Justice is restored and Justice
      demands that the Serbs be pushed out of the Bosnian territories
      that they have usurped!  Seems like this is an effort by the
      Serbian-American Media Center and their political satellites.
      It is funny to hear about peace and non-violence now that the 
      Serbians have managed to get away with engineering a successful
      genocide in Bosnai!

     The United Nations and the United States also recognize Bosnia-Hercegovina
     as an independant state.  This is a deliberate attempt by Serbians to 
     downplay their involement in the war!  The fact is that Serbia is the 
     aggressor and she has broken all past records of inhumanity and cruelty in
     quest for expansion.

     I don't understand.  This is a joke, right?  So a murderer comes into your
     house, rapes your daughters and your sisters and kills your sons and then
     these two-faced policemen of peace come around and try to restrain you 
     from fighting with the murderer!  

     This is so openly hypocritical that I want to wretch.  These people come 
     around masquerading as peace-makers when indeed they are responsible for the
     misery of innocent Bosnians.               

>evenhanded diplomacy and pressure the three warring sides in Bosnia and 
 ^^^^^^^^^^

      As if the policy to date has been even-handed.  Every-one knows of the 
      Serbian Death Camps where thousands of Muslims have perished, and the
      world has not seen a trial of those responsible, in spite of the Nuremburg
      declaration against Genocide.  The world knows about Serbian bomardment of 
      civilian targets inside Bosnia and not a single "No Fly Zone " has been 
      implimented by the U.N.  The world knows that the Bosnians are dying 
      without food and clothing and isn't it ironic that 23% of all aid 
      going into Bosnia is given to the Serbs for appeasement!

      Earlier in this Century, the world appeased to another aggressor, and it
      looked the other way during another genocide and the result was that every
      single country in the world was effected by Germany's bid to expand and
      "cleanse" itself.

      History shows that a Peace without Justice leads to more misery.  If Serbia
      is allowed to get away with one genocide, let the world be prepared with
      a hundred genocides!

     No-one wants America to intervene militarily, although it is her moral duty
     to do so after the great propoganda campaign for "Human Right and Democracy"
     during the Gulf war.  However, the injust ban on military weapons on Bosnia 
     must be up-lifted immediately!  The Bosnains have every right to defend 
     themselves against the Serbian aggressors.  I think that it is hardly "even-
     handed" to allow Serbians to riddle Bosnia with rockets and artillery when
     Bosnians don't even have hunting rifles to defend themselves with.  The 
     Bosnian defense forces have 2 tanks---the Serbs have  more than 350!  The 
     Bosnians have no aircraft---the Serbs have a whole airforce!

>ACTION FOR PEACE IN THE BALKANS


    Any decent human-being who is as disgusted by the genocide in Bosnia should
    call the white-house and tell Bill Clinton to lift the Arms Embargo in Bosnia.
    Every American should call and remind him of America's commitment to "never-more" 
    appease to genocide.  

        Comment-line for the White-House:  (202) 456-1111
         
        Address for the White House:
                              1600 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W.

    These are the only numbers that I know of.  If any-one has addtional numbers
    to call, please post them on the net.
