Shirvan why not show the other side as well? Bosniak lawmakers act like dictators and don't respect the dayton agreement. The bosniaks elect the croatian representative and act anti-democratic. Dodik is just defending serbian interest while the bosniaks want to dissolve Republika Srpska. + don't show Kosovo & Metohija as a country, since it's not accepted in the UN.
I mean, it's probably good for the Americans to build their credit but over here where I live, we have a more... practical way of calculating one's credit score that doesn't require a person to ever use a credit card. Heck, I personally don't know a single person who owns one. Everyone either has a debit card or no card at all.

Bosnia and Herzegovina - Only on GameBoy Color!
I had a friend in Bosnian army. He left for Switzerland. Anyway, he said that all the boys in the army, regardless if they were Croats, Serbs or Bosniaks, had agreed that in case of a war, they are stealing the vehicles, taking their families and leaving Bosna. Even the soldiers don't wanna fight over it.
Nobody wants to fight.. but soldier desertion is a death penalty.
That what JNA recruits where saying just before they all joined their own ethnic army and started murderering everyone.
@@FilipCordas Yeah, this. It's easy for people to say idealistic things like stealing the vehicle and ditching the army. You shouldn't take that at face value. Actual social pressure for them to stay will have great influence. Fear of being caught in desertion will stop a lot of them. Having family/friends not totally going along with their plan will also deter them. It's easier to just go with the mainstream, that's what human nature is.
@@kevinmsft If they can successfully flee then they can likely avoid that penalty.
@@seneca983 Why take that risk? For some people committing a few war crimes is the less riskier option; a lot less likely to get punished for that.
I worked for a Chef that was Bosnian. Head been involved in heavy fighting and lost family and loved ones more often than not. He was perhaps the deepest human being I've ever met and had some truly horrifying stories even tho he barely ever said very much. His mother had survived because she had been in the basement when a tank shell collapsed her house. Thank you for helping educate on the greater perspective
I am a Bosniak living in Sarajevo, what i can say in this current situation is that even thou our brothers Serbs and Croats dont agree with anything with us there is 1 thing we do agree about. NO MORE WAR, we lost so much in the 90s so many lifes so many futures gone, the country was left on its knees. Now we repaired the phisical damage and are still repairing our souls and future we will not go to war because gready corrupt politicans want a war.

in WW1 the multiculturalis/multiethnic Austria-Hungarian Empire collapsed but the Kingdom Of Yugoslavia was born thanks to idiot politicians and monarchs at that time. the ussual suspects.
forcing people and communities of people to live with eachother although they mostly dislike eachother is a recipe for destruction and civil war. the cultures, language, religions and the way of life is vastly different. obviously it is much better to separate and live in your own independent country.

I amnot religious myself, but i am Bosniak and here by default it means thay you are of a certain religion. The thing is, I have lived literally in a Bosniak majority region, Croat majority region, Serb majority region, and the people are all the same.. the main problem comes from us losing our collective identity as Yugoslavs, so desperately have to as nations cling upon the inly other identity we have left. This is super easy for politicians to target, because almost every day some of them imply like "that set of people want to destroy you". It creates a fear of basic existence, and literally it has been plaguing us since the start. Bosnia has one of the highest levels of corruption and young adult employment is extremely low, so all my friends are disappointed by the leaders and the country as a whole and dont have any will to stay here, let alone fight. As someone still living here, it is also funny listening to older diaspora that live outside, who always taunt us here with fear inducing statements ("they want to destroy us, bla bla bla") but they dont see that the majority of young people here genuinely live in peace. But identity and war are a funny topic here in the Balkans, we always seem to fight for our identity. I hope it does not happen again because there will be no turning back after that, its not like you can remake Dayton with the same borders and retry
"Armies don't start wars politicians do"

Well countries within a country is doom to fail. Bosnia or Lebanon are great examples. That's why Russia is pushing similar things to post Soviet countries, to destroy them from within
@V R I wish more people are like you. I'm serbian (live in Australia) but I would never go to war against my former Yugoslav brothers. Something my dad taught me since I was a child.
Been putting this for way too long, but after watching this I can confidently say this video is pretty blank in terms of the larger picture. I mean with a set up as unstable and "temporary" as this, something or the other is bound to happened, and such advances by certain ethnic groups are not surprising, despite the wishes of many young people that it wouldn't be like this. But yes I can confidently say that luckily the young generation is not interested in the conflicts of their parents, so I hope we won't seriously see another 90s. It's tiring and counter productive. Ask any Bosnian or Serb even and they'd all say they'd rather have a better life than some fragile & imaginary ethnic purity and honour. Indeed, the irony is that yes, while many Bosnian refugees and their descendants live abroad, so do the Serbs and pretty much any other ethnic group in the Balkans. So spreading nationalism while you sit in a Vienna cafe does not resonate well with those who live side by side with the results of those corrupt ideologies. Speaking of corruption - that and shitty governance is the main issue. And yes Bosnia badly needs a proper overhaul... but an agreement seems far away.... For a better understanding of what I mean just look at Lebanon. It's literally Lebanon but stable.
Well said
@Ornithocheirus Yes. Now imagine that but stable.
The whole nation is so artificial that it's kinda common sense that it will eventually collapse. It's literally a budget Astro-Hungarian empire but without a central force holding it together

On the one hand I can understand the dangers of Bosnia breaking apart, on the other hand is it right to keep a country together which clearly doesn't work? Tough questions it is beyond my knowledge to answer. I hope it doesn't end up in violence
Look at the fucked up borders though can you even split that logistically ?
The only reason it doesn't work is because Dodik's party is refusing to show up on State meetings and is blocking the institutions. It's the equivalent of saying "I'm not playing anymore" ina board game when you're losing.

@@LeOssiTrollterrible Judging from the borders, only Croats (marked in white) could secede without much logistical problems as most of them live near Croatia.
However, that would mean they take all the coast of the country with them, something I doubt Sarajevo would torelate.

@@SuperLusername That is not correct. The Serbs have the best borders because of ethnic cleansing but they are also still split in 2. The Bosniaks are completely fucked no matter what happens during a break up and the Croats in central Bosnia are also split of from the Rest in the north and Hercegovina.
I lived in Bosnia and let me tell you, separation is not very likely, and even if it happens the standard of living won't fall by much, when it comes to war its extremely unlikely, no-one wants another war, people there are still recovering from the last one.
It's not up to people to decide is there going to be a war. War profiteers are deciding.
Do people generally get along well with each other, regardless of ethnicity?
Everyone in Bosnia can't wait to start a new war they hate each other every family on both sides has someone they want to avenge. The idea to turn Serbs into Nazis of the war has backfired extremely, now Bosnians want to get back at Serbs for war crimes that where mostly made up and the Serbs think that they should start doing all the stuff western media made up about them because no one did anything about many victims they had during the war.

They are the majority because they have ethnically cleansed this region of Bosnia. Today there are no more Bosniaks in Prijedor, Zvornik, Bijeljina. An entity created on ethnic cleansing and genocides does not deserve to exist.

There are important things that Shirvan missed to say in this video (on puropose or not):
1. Presidency of BiH is made of three presidents - one Croat, one Bosniak and one Serb. Since Bosniaks are more numerous than Croats, for third time now they have elected both Croat and Bosniak members of presidency and that Croat member identifies as Croat but is a political Bosniak (he got almost none of the votes in Croat majority regions. As Croat member of presidency, he can also select offcials on Croat behalf. And he did so, by selecting Bosniak muslim officials who changed their nationality to Croat only to get the office.
2. Croatian main goal is to change election law so that Croats can elect their legitimate representatives
3. Croats argue that third entity is good solution to this problem and sloves "Sejdić-Finci" problem.
4. "Sejdić-Finci" problem is the fact that people of other nationalities (like Jews or Roma) cannot be elected into office because they don't belong to any od constituent peoples and that's violation of their human rights. By creating third entity, each of the presidents would be elected in each entity and he could be of any nationality, there would be no need for national preconditions.
5. As Croats have increasingly lost their political power to Bosniaks in recent decades, Serbs are afraid that same might happen to them, so they are trying to counter Bosniak dominance together with Croats.
yes,i wanted to say that,well said
Thanke you, you have explaned the true story of all issue in the Bosnia.
The Croatians are not granted the third entity from Europe (Austria and Germany) and the USA. The fact is that Europe and the United States are afraid to recognize Muslims as a people.
You know that Bosnia in the Middle Ages was a Christian kingdom, and the Bosnian people were wiped out by the Ottomans, as the Ottoman Empire was dissolved, the Muslim population was left without a nation in Christian territory. Today we try in every way to revive the Bosnian = secular nationality to avoid the recognition that Muslims are a European people / nation.
In fact, unarmed Muslims are pushed to conquer Bosnia against Serbs and Croats, who instead obtain weapons from the US and Russia. It is normal for Serbs and Croats to rebel against Muslim domination.
Europe would like Muslims to be expelled / diminished from Bosnian territory to implement `` we do not yet know '' a new political model.
Maybe what I said is a conspiracy theory, I have an unfounded paranoia.
But it seems strange to me that one accepts the existence of three dominant nationalities, but does not accept a Bosnian federal state with three federal states. The only explanation is that the West does not want the third entity with a Muslim territory.
@@ArchangelGabriel if Bosnian muslim would look down his ancestral tree , what would he find ?
Let me guess - you are Croat.
There is nothing that proves that a third entity solves Sejdic-Finci. Even EU said it.
Republic of Srpska isn't autonomous region, it is constitutive entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is like a state member of confederation.

As a Croat from Croatia, I belive that people of BiH (especially younger generations) will never ever let politicians lead them into war. There is so many connections between these nations any non peacfull act would lead to more economical and demografic stagnation. Hope that BiH people can solve this through communication only.

@KenWorksEditing yes and next time hopefully that will be bosinak republic, new european country.
@KenWorksEditing As a serb i want to live in Republic of Srpska as a country not in bosnia a country which threatens our human rights.
@KenWorksEditing First of all there is difference between "genocide" and war crime, The Genocide was on example 1941. when nazi croats murdered over 1.2 million serbs, jews, roma in death camp Jasenovac and all other murder places in Independent state of Croatia in WW2. And civil war in ex YU had a lot of crimes not only crimes commited on bosniak people but on serbian people too? What about fact that serbs lost over 15 thousand inoccent civilians? Also Yugoslav regular army did not commit any of those crimes simply because Yugoslav Army was not in a war in Republic of Srpska because Milosevic didn't allow that so you can only blame para millitary formations for those crimes.
Bosniaks chose their path with their leader Alija Izetbegovic so now they have an opportunity to live in their own country but also serbs from Republika Srpska have right by International law , so i do not see what bosniak people and politicians want now? Maybe they want EU ressurect nazis to murder all serbs, im thinking about if bosniaks would agree with that.
In a nutshell:
Bosniaks want a unitarian state in which THEY, being the most numerous population, will be a deciding factor.
Serbs don't want ANYTHING to do with a unitarian state and will not tolerate Bosniak hegemony, being the second numerous population.
The Croats want a separate entity, will not accept unitarism and are traditionally opossed to anything Serbian.
Good luck in solving that problem!
they want herceg bosna to go to Croatia with them which war 1993 war was about.
God it's like a mini Yugoslavia. Can't they just, like, dissolve peacefully?
We hope so ,to finish peacfully.
Just a few facts:
1.Bosnia is country with three religions that were in war. Srbs Orthodox, Bosniak Muslims and Croat Catholics. The war ended in 1995 with the signing of the Dayton Peace Agreement, which created two fully autonomous entities, the Republika Srpska with 49% of Bosnia territory with Serb-majority 96%, and another autonomous entity, the Federation of BiH, with 51% of its territory, with 70%. Muslims and 30% Croats.
2.The presidency of Bosnia is composed of three representatives, each nation has its own representative who is elected. 3.The problem arises with the fact that Muslims, with their domination over Croats in one entity, have been electing a Croatian representative for decades, whom Croats do not perceive as their own leader and are powerless to change that. On the other hand, Muslims are able to re-vote all decisions of the Serbian representative from the other entity with two representatives over one. And so for 25 years, Muslims have abolished every year one by one the competencies of the Republika Srpska, such as the army, judiciary, agricultural land, forests goods... All under the pretext of creating a unitary state, which is supported by Germany as the most important member of the EU. This is where the problem arises because the representatives of the Republika Srpska have been asking for years for things to be returned to the original Dayton, which guarantees them certain rights in a certain territory. Another option is a peaceful breakup. But the only ones talking about the war in case of breakup are a representative of Muslims supported by German politician who is politically in favor of a unitary Bosnia that is not foreseen under the Dayton Agreement. Fortunately, the vast majority of the people of Bosnia do not want a war, so this crisis will end politically, most likely with unjust sanctions against the Republika Srpska, which will certainly not give up its guaranteed rights. It is unfortunate that this process has been going on for decades and will not end soon, and Bosnia as a dysfunctional state is getting poorer and people are leaving it.👋
It's because historically Serbs have been Pro Russia and the Serbian seat is Pro Russia. It's all Geopolitics
Well the problem is Bosniacs want a war and they want 100% of Bosnia with 0% of Serbs and they want the western powers to do it for them since the last time they attempted this they couldn't do it. They want the same thing Croatia got in the 90s.

One thing that made me sit down was all the young people who looked like young people should but the contrast between them and the older was brutal.
I could still see the war in those eyes , it was brutal and it just kept on and on with every one .

The main problem is that noone is respecting the law. High Representative is appointed contrary to the usual procedure, BiH Constitutional court is ignored, Dayton peace treaty is violated and noone cares. This stuff happens at least from 2006. and it starts to take its toll. Dodik is dangerous but its completely unrealistic to put all the blame on him. The deal that was made in 1995' after bitter negotiation is largely compromised from multiple angles and Bosniaks havent been able to form any meaningful and sustainable political approach considering their Serb and Croat countrymen. Unitary state, envisioned by main Bosniak party is simply a "no-go" for both Serbs and Croats.
There's not much Bosniaks can do when 45% of the population goes out of the way to undermine the stability of the nation. They (serb politicians) purposely work against the progression of the nation, and then turn around and claim that a unitary state is not possible.
@@09764312468 Should they work for a unitary state? They don't want it, leave them alone. It's like blaming the Slovenes for the fall of Yugoslavia
@@09764312468 Very simple thing;
1) Unitary state is not envisioned by the Dayton agreement, many european states are not unitary but they are succesfull. Unitary state is not possible or desired solution for many, many countries, including the biggest and most powerful ones.
2) "Bosnian nation" does not exist, there are 3 nations which form modern BiH along with other peoples (>3%). Bosniaks are 1 of 3 constituent peoples of BiH, like Flemish people in Belgium, or Germans in Switzerland.
3) Unitary state in this circumstances means only and exclusively the domination of Bosniaks over Serbs and Croats, and thats not what we signed. There is no point in trying to mask it with cheap political phrases, people are not THAT stupid.
@@FOLIPE The war ended with the signing of the Dayton peace accords which banned any secessions from the country. Moreover, Republicans Srpska was founded on ethnic cleansing, it's borders and demographics today would not be possible today without ethnic cleansing and genocide. Allowing secession would both be illegal, and would also send a message to everyone that genocide is the path to succession in the future. Also, there are a sizable amount of non Serbs in that entity
@@09764312468 And Bosnia wouldn't be possible without WW2 German sponsored genocide of the Serbs (by Muslims and Croats) and Turkish genocide of the Serbs under occupation which left many convertites to Islam.

Why would they undermine Bosnia, an ally, which aids Serbia, an enemy?
Finally someone who realizes what's really going on there.
I'm not saying either side is right in this conflict, but this video has skipped the fact that the Dayton Agreement was forcefully changed many times since its creation in favor of Bosnian Muslims and centralized state (ofc by the US/EU). The High Representatives were simply imposed by the EU (instead of being selected by the UN Council) and they forced 140 laws in total, all in favor of Bosnian Muslims.
The Serbs are being constantly oppressed, their votes rarely ever count, and the Muslims are constantly expressing their hate towards them, calling on murders and ethnic cleansing.
It's really hard living in such atmosphere. On top of that, the country can't progress economically. It's all building up and I'm sure it won't last much longer.
As someone who has been living in Bosnia and Herzegovina for his whole life I can say situation is not that dramatic as World media is representing it. We have learned to live with Milorad Dodiks menaceds and situation is really not that dramatic and scary.

I hope the best for balkans especially for my Bosnian brothers. Stop killing each other.
You had a lot of good points, but saying that Muslim politicans (SDA) are the one trying to stop the dissolution is wrong. Don't forget that a lot of problems BIH is facing now comes from unitaristic policies of Sarajevo that's trying to bully and undermine Croatians that have some rights given to them by the Dayton's treaty. Reason why Bosnian Croats are siding with Bosnian Serbs rather than Muslims is because they want to achieve their constitutional rights of fair representation that SDA is trying to block.
Reality is that the key of BIH future is in bringing together Muslims and Bosnian Croats and you can't achieve that if Muslims are electing Croatian representative and ignoring crucial segments of Dayton's peace accords that says that BIH is a country of three entitys with their given rights.
Future of Bosnia can't be peaceful and prosperous with one entity dominating others, we learned that from history books; Only solution is in respecting the rights of your neighbor and working for the greater good.
But it is not a country with 3 entities it is a country with 2 entities and 3 constituent people in both entities and now the Brcko district it also says that 1 representative is elected elected from within RS and 2 in the FBiH that is what the constitution says noone ever thought about what would happend if a Croat politician runs for office that is Pro-Bosnia and a lot of Bosniaks love what he stands for and decide to vote for the Croat rather then their own Bosniak candidates you will never convince the world nor the Bosniaks to not be allowed to vote for a Serb or Croat if they love what he stands for and he is Pro Bosnia it has 0 to do with undermining anyone if that is how you personally feel than that is on you but legally nothing was undermined when it comes to the BiH constitution
@@Untrus If it wasn't a legal question why would the Constitutional court of BIH rule that the election procedures were unconstitutional and that they have to change to give Croatian minority in Federation a fair position in the next election process?
Thing you're saying would be true if Federation was created as a part of BIH with one citizen/one vote rule, but Dayton accords recognised that every ethnic group in Bosnia has to have a fair access to state bodies without the other side overvoting them based on sheer numbers.
Whole point of BIH is in giving everyone wider array of rights (even outnumbered Croatians) because we've seen in the 90's what happens when someone starts to talk about being in danger or misrepresented.
@@AgentZero62 that is not what the constitutional court ruled, it ruled that the BiH constitution needs to comply with the sejdic finci ruling of the world court where a jew, and a Roma went and sued bosnia because you can only run for high office if you are a croat, bosniak, or serb which is clearly discriminatory the Bosniaks and the E.U are advocating for a system where anyone can run for any position no matter who they are this is where the problem is because HDZ BiH (main croat political party) and SNSD (main Serb political party) are advocating for for Ethnic boundaries within the country where anyone can vote for who ever which the bosniaks are not willing to accept because it is discriminatory to bosniaks in majority croat serb areas and vice versa this is the whole issue with the Voting Law because the EU is pressuring them to pass it but noone can reach a compromise
@@AgentZero62 the f bih was created with 1 vote 1 citizen rule that is how a croat was able to be elected by bosniak votes this is the whole point
@@Untrus I'm not talking about Sejdic ruling, but Ljubic ruling that said that every constitutional ethnic group (Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks) should have fair representation in Dom naroda and other state bodies.
Ruling was clear in saying that election law should change to create a fair chance for Croats to have their representative in Predsjednistvo which is not the case now when Croatian representive is elected with majority of Bosnian voters.
And that's the whole problem with one man/one vote policy that completely goes in favour of the muslim majority but it's in contradiction with everything done in Dayton peace accords that was implemented to prevent domination of one ethnic group.
Inverting the story to say that fair representation is same as creating separate ethnic territories similar to RSK is simply not true. Irony of the whole situation is that Bosnian side is pushing Croats into Dodik's arms while trying to achieve complete domination in Federation. Reality is that giving Croats their right to chose representatives is the rational way to subdue Dodik's separatistic plans and I really can't see why muslim elites are ignoring that.
Every time there is a threat of war in Bosnia, the first thing I do is check when the next election is.
The largest nationalist parties are loosing influence over their respective people (mostly due to corruption), and the logical thing for the nationalistic parties to do would be to war monger and divide the people before an election.
Precisely, a little warmongering is what they do every time before the election, then after it's back to normal.

Must be Friday
Same in Lebanon, politicians and bankers found a way to bankrupt the country and cause a rift among the citizens to start a civil war. Just like that, one day we woke up and all political parties started rioting about trivial things when the rest of the citizens were wondering what just happened.
@Graf von Losinj and in addition to creating a falsehood of safety. Banks in Lebanon couldn't have gone bankrupt altogether. Except together with the central bank they orchestrated this financial crisis and took all the depositors money. Normally a person would save money in the bank, these guys ruined the economy's trust in the financial sector. No company would ever risk having its assets transferred to any of the banks in Lebanon. Imagine zero trust in the banking sector. How would an economy recover? That's why now, and without any fallback, people jumping wagon to exchange in usdt and crypto. We could argue back and forth the merits of such trust in virtual money, but when you need to live in this dynamic world, you need transferable assets. And since the banking sector can and would take your money forcefully, you are left with few alternative solutions. Today it's crypto for us. To make it worse, country went dark, no power or fuel alternatives as well due to no foreign currencies available in the reserve, which is insane and complete utter BS. So miners couldn't power up their rigs for few bucks they get in return to stay afloat. They (those who do not stand to benefit by being toppled over and losing their standing in government) orchestrated the riots, then the financial collapse, the rise of the country's few rich people under another political party, like we need more rich people who had it a bit rough to tell us what to do now. And so on. The list is endless. There is no way for us to go back the previous life we had 2 years ago. Whatever illusion of life we humans have can suddenly be extinguished by virtual norms. You always have to be on your toes and keep looking for number one and always be prepared for the worst. That's the new life here. The regional politics is very shifty, one day you're driving on the road, an explosion, a roadblock, a shooting, an accident, anything to make you go back home insanely fast. Sorry for the long comment. People get so desensitized here, mentioning all this is here is a release to vent.
I've never understood how the Bosniaks ended up so different from their Christian counterparts just because of their religion. Their language is still Slavic, their land is in Slavic lands, and they don't really have what we call an Islamic culture, more like a Slavic culture with an Islamic influence. But idk why they differentiate them selves so much from their other Slavic brothers like Africans in Africa are Christians but that hasn't made them Europeans nor has Christians in Lebanon made them similar the Europeans yet Bosniaks almost reject their Slavic heritage and origin and almost force an Islamic and almost Turkish culture upon themselves and I can honestly see why this would make Croats and Serbs angry because not only did they convert (and kind of betray the common Balkan cause) to get better treatment by the Turks but then they've almost spat on their heritage and culture and rejected and differentiated themselves from their common origin with other Slavs as much as they can all for what? Turkey has abandoned them and they should be at least trying to integrate and share a common path with their fellow Slavs instead of constantly trying to divide themselves from everyone else
I wouldn't say that Bosniaks try to differentiate themselves, nor that they cast off their heritage. Perhaps you could shed some light on how you concluded that? I'm quite interested as a Bosniak myself.
Also, one of the main problems is that the term "Bosniaks" is associated with "muslims" which is a huge issue, since it comes off as a nation which is not (Bosniaks regardless od religion can be accepted as a nation, but not "muslims", "catholics" etc.). The term "Bosniak" should have been the common term for all peoples of Bosnia but nationalistic politics made that impossible on all sides.
So basically, as I see it, politics has divided this issue into religion, meaning that if you are a muslim you are a Bosniak, if you are catholic you are a Croat, or orthodox then you are a Serb. Which is pure nonsense, people of Bosnia sre diverse, so you cannot narrow it down to that but that's exactly what politics made, unfortunately.
Nobody is casting off their heritage here, we are all very much alike.
If you look very closely it is mainly the Bosnian Serbs (the nationalistic politicans) who try to deny the heritage of the people of Bosnia saying that we didn't exist as a nation and country many centuries ago long before the Ottomans came.
Let's be honest. The country which was created out of nowhere by tito, was always meant to be split up by serbia and croatia, because literally 2/3 of the population (bosnian croats and serbs) wanted so, only the muslim minority remained. And now when the time sets, those same muslims want to keep a state which is literally divided in 3 pieces, and only causes tensions. Plus, it isn't even ruled by them, but by the western politicians.. It's a mess
They want a peaceful and sovereign state? Then let the ones who want to leave, secede (croats and serbs)..

It wasn't a coherent nation of its own until the late 1800s, and even then that was to a large degree Prussia imposing itself on every other German state (which is what made it a German empire before it began seeking colonies).

Ey let´s be honest if Russia and Serbia are called in on the Serbian side then Turkey being called in, is more than logical. Turks still enjoy great respect by the Bosniaks and so do the Bosniaks from Turks. Bosniaks are like Azerbaijanis who don´t speak turkic for us
Not the contry.. only the Bosniak side is calling tham.. 2/3 of the contry do not give a f**** about turkey
@@nohlavopi8617 and I specifically said the Bosniaks are calling us, also the Bosniaks make up 53% of Bosnia, thus your state if 2/3’s not caring about Turkey is quite wrong
@@adidoki they don't make 53% of Bosnia. They hardly control even 24% of actual territory and it's very dubious if they even have over 40% of the population, considering how they tampered with the referendum.
@@zmajooov 1.7 million out of 3 million sth sth Bosnians are Bosniaks, so point still stands, about 53% are Bosniaks.
Bosnia is a mini Yugoslavia which is why its doomed to fail.
@@isko8680 Yes it is, you are in denial. Genocide was done against Serbs in WW2 and 90s in BiH. YT like usual is deleting comments critical of Muslims.
@@stevie6621 So Muslims had commit genocide on the Serbs? Are you good in the head? What would you call Srebrenica then?
@@zeezee8558 In Srebrenica there were thousands of Serbian civilians killed between 1992-95. I bet CNN didn't tell you about that.
@@stevie6621 So who told you that? Where is your proof? Go check out how many civilians were killed in the siege of Sarajevo alone during the war and then come back with this bullshit.
@@zeezee8558 The proof is with the witness testimonies, videos, etc. You can be in denial all you want it wont change the facts.
Weird, its almost like forcing people from different ethni to live together creates conflict.
Religion is the main issue here. They are all same ethnicity.
Thank you for this very informative video. "Tinderbox" is a very apt description of this situation. As an American, though, it would be the height of hypocrisy for me to rail against a Serb or Croatian move toward secession, given our own history of secession from Great Britain in 1776. Moreover, given our federal government's tendency to screw things up internationally when it inserts itself overseas (Ukraine, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lybia), it's probably better for the US to stay away from this mess.
All the "information" in this video are totally biased and usual anti-Serbian propaganda! I just don't understand how they are not bored of repeating the same trash over and over again.
If the Serbs in Srpska want to leave so badly, why do we have to force them into a failed union?
the same reason serbia is against independent kosovo. we see all of bosnia as one country regardless of religion.
Because they committed f'in GENOCIDE on the whole Srpska region!!
R. Srpska is split in two for a reason. Western part of Srpska was always considered as a Croatian dominion.
@@truthseeker8273 that's what western Propaganda consistantly reiterated for decades now, in order to make fools support their NATO-Agenda.
@@makomaro For strangers watching this let me tell your 49% are entity srpska over 70% of that enity are mountains and forests when war comes that teritory will from 49 go very fast do 25% because that teritory is empty and they dont have manpower to hold it.
That's why war is not possible.
WW1: begins because a man wanted a united southern Slavic nation
Yugoslavia: Shatters into a million pieces
More like Austria to butt hurt to back down
that is not why the war broke out
@@flintniel7070Serbia agreed to most of Austria demands but hey, its not always that you can start a world war, so Austria send million to their death.
@@flintniel7070 It did. Gavrilo was a very passionate Yugoslav nationalist and wanted a united Yugoslavia free from Austria.
it was Serbia plan long ago
"Armies don't start wars; politicians do."
I'm stealing that.
The Bosnian state in general is such a modern and artificial state that it's no wonder why it's falling apart like Austria Hungary or Yugoslavia before it.
Its worse than Austria Hungary because Bosnia has no unifying figurehead
Interesting content, on a topic that is much overlooked! Great work, as always!!
Bosnia, the way it is now, it was a failed concept from the start, an artificial entity. GB and France tried roughly a century ago in Middle East to implement something similar. It created more chaos and tensions which inevitably lead to conflicts.
Bosnia is definitely not artifical, but it makes more sense as a region rather than a country.
@@Govnar658 nah the overwhelming majority in Bosnia disagree as those the whole world which recognized Bosnia as a nation.
Making borders precisely after the Frontline , is not peace.
Try and look the borders , not a single cm was given by anyone.
Thats a big mistake
"Armies don't start wars, politicians do"
Tatmadaw: "Hold my Beer"
Balkans anyway by 2050 will reduce to less than half of its current population. Don't know what they are fighting for when there are no people to live there.
Not long time ago, it was said on this channel that Kosovo will start domino effect. A precedent was made, against international law, and we will see in the future how even larger countries are breaking apart along ethnick lines. More and more countries are having their own "Kosovo" because of International comunity's disrespect of serbiann territorial integrity.
Ah, yes. Start playing this rethoric agai
So you only read the title of Kosovo's domino effect, it had nothing to do with its independence.
●Bosnia didn't occupy srpska republic like serbia occupied Kosovo in 1912.
●Bosnia didn't oppress 20 percent of its population and treat them as second class citizens.
-The only way srpska is gaining indpendence is if they commit war crimes, murder 10.000 serbs, rape 20.000 women and burn 200.000 houses - like serbia did in Kosovo.
Cry little russian immigrant xD
I think just let Bosnia break up , no point trying to prolong the inevitable , a peaceful breakup should occur with intermediaries
that is very difficult to happen considering what happened in syria where the russians opposed all proposals from the west
@Fjodor Tabularasa " The only thing the West should do is stopping messing in other countries " well okay Guess no intermediaries, big army diplomacy it is then
The problem with that logic is that Europe would break into a million states. If you think that is workable, go to Africa and Asia and repeat the exercise to see yourself failing miserably.
@Fjodor Tabularasa whatever... the russians fought to keep their influence in the area and so would the americans or chinese or whoever... thats what im saying neither would be willing the budge or compromise their interests and no solution would be found
Wouldn't work considering how the borders are. Watch BalkanOdyssey's video on youtube, about how the division would go down. And you'll se how much will be "fixed". The politicians are just abusing the people for their own gain, and using nationalism to make the people look away from their own corruption and how shitty they make the peoples lives.
Croats, Serbs & Bosniaks (TRIANGLE OF FIRE) put together and expect them not to explode these who put them together they knew that & they did it on purpose. THINK
Was mobilized to Germany as an Army reservist then deployed to Bosnia in 1997-98. Worked in Sarajevo at Ilidza and based out of Butmir. Why not just carve out an independent Bosniak state, with a port on the Adriatic, let the Croat and Serb portions return to their mother states, and be done with it? Have the Turks garrison some troops there to discourage any future Croat or Serb meddling. What more is needed?
Or Serbs can go to Serbia and Croats can go to Croatia what about that?
@@elvirbajric907 Understood. However, what if the Serbs and Croats won't leave without taking their lands with them? Are you willing to fight another war over this? If not a war, are you willing to endure another two decades of economic stagnation because of this unwieldy three-party state?
As someone who has served there in uniform and studied the conflict, I very much want see an economically prosperous Bosnia. My recommendation, as an outsider, is get what you can get and move on from this failed experiment. No more subordinating your future to an unelected "high commissioner."
Armies don’t start wars, politicians do. Lest we forget! Citizens just become cannon fodder. Definition of stupidity.
most of the time your correct, Japan in ww2 is one of the few exceptions to this rule, where the military started the war in china against the wishes of the politicians.
Today I learned that Republika Sprska is not Serbia
well, some want to change that
Serbia is a master of war crime magic to get things done!
They should split it up and leave it at that. Let the Serbs have their piece, the Croats theirs and the muslims can have theirs. Done.
Yeah eh same but Serbia wana all Bosnia and Croatia wana all and Bosnia same
Imagine that pain our women and young girls felt when they were raped in the most brutal ways in Bosnia just because they are Muslims and those poor victims in Iraq.The Srebrenica genocide. Not going to lie now,i do get a hard on thinking about Serbian and American girls and older women. i do help myself thinking about them;) ;) And yep FTP........!!!!!!;)
@@haristhebosniaklion8584 you need to think in a healthier way. For your own sake.
