message: I think the tone of the section on conversion is too anti-Conversion.  I am sure there were people who converted because they believed the principals of Roman Catholicism.  To present all converts as seeking material gains in this world is unfair.-Johnpacklambert 03:26, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Tone of conversion mention

message: "Veritas" site as "trustworthy source"?
Especially the page  with the "report" of Croatian Helsinki Committee, with the words like "prepis" and similar?? Not to mention that that report is not signed!
Any idiot can type such letter and blame anyone. 
About this reference.
"The United Nations believes 12 Serb civilians were massacred in Varivode".
"Believes."
What did they used? A crystal ball?
Second. "...burning, looting and killing was done by men in Croatian military uniforms and armed civilians". 
"Men in ...uniforms"? 
Really?
So, you are the one of those who believe that Poles have attacked the Gleiwitz in 1939?
Why don't you post the reports about the Serbs that 've been killed because they didn't wanted to leave, but they've been killed by Serbs?
"Armed civilians"??
What idiot 'll go and risk his life by going with weapon into the war zone?
Nobody knows who that person is (unless being recognised, but who recognizes someone from 500m?).
Were that probably the Serb criminals who terrorized local Serbs, who wanted to stay in Croatia?
The sentence from that page "Officially, Croatia says Serbs who have lived in the Krajina region for hundreds of years can stay." Is that neutral conclusion? Even worse, it's a lie.
Croatian authorities 've never segregated the Serbs according to their presence in Croatia (still, those settled during Serbian aggression on Croatia don't count here), either they lived there 100 years or 48 years.
About "ethnic cleansing", here are the references, that show that rebel authorities 've organized and prepared the evacuation of Serbs much before.
there are some documents of rebel Serbs' Civile Protection (Civilna Zaštita), that speak about an already prepared and predicted evacuation of population (I'll dig that out later), but, as a first step, here are some sources (Serb sources!) that speak about planned evacuation of population of rebel areas:
This order is given from the rebel Serb top authority on the day of Operation Storm. 5. August 1995.
* RSK, Vrhovni savjet odbrane, Knin, 4. avgust 1995., 16.45 časova, Broj 2-3113-1/95. Faksimil ovog dokumenta objavljen je u/The faximile of this document was published in: Rade Bulat "Srbi nepoželjni u Hrvatskoj", Naš glas (Zagreb), br. 8.-9., septembar 1995., p. 90.-96. (faksimil je objavljen na stranici 93./the faximile is on the page 93.). 
Vrhovni savjet odbrane RSK (The Supreme Council of Defense of Republic  of Serb Krajina) brought a decision 4. August 1995 in 16.45. This decision was signed by Milan Martić and later verified in Glavni štab SVK (Headquarters of Republic of Serb Krajina Army) in 17.20.
I'll type you the original text later.
These orders are given two days before the Operation Storm, 
02. August 1995.
* RSK, Republički štab Civilne zaštite, Broj: Pov. 01-82/95., Knin, 02.08.1995., HDA, Dokumentacija RSK, kut. 265 
This is the document of Republic headquarters of Civil Protection of RSK. In this document it was ordered to all subordinated headquaters of RSK to immediately give all reports about preparations for the evacuation, sheltering and taking care of evacuated civilians (evakuacija, sklanjanje i zbrinjavanje) (the deadline for the report was 3. August 1995 in 19 h).

This was the next order from the Republican HQ of Civil Protection.
It was referred to all Municipal Headquaters of Civil Protection. In that document was ordered to all subordinated HQ's to implement the preparation of evacuation of all material and all mobile cultural goods, archives, evidentions and materials that are highly confidential/top secret, money, lists of valuable stuff (?)("vrednosni popisi") and referring documentations.
