The Bloodiest War You've Never Heard Of - Bosnian War 🇧🇦

- In this video from Sarajevo, Bosnia, I discuss the Bosnian civil war, the most devastating conflict in Europe since the end of World War II, and one that happened within our lifetimes with vivid present day repercussions. I tried my best to go over the happenings in Yugoslavia that led to the dissolution of the state and to the crisis that affected Bosnia-Hercegovina worse than arguably any of the other member states, what happened in the war itself, the unbelievable atrocities that defined the tragedy, and the aftermath.

as a bosnian...all i can say is thank you...presented very well ...and the emotions you show, made me feel like you are one of us
Wow, thank you. Just trying to my part in telling the story that needs to be heard
you might be Biosnian, but you are idiot as well
As a Bosniak I can tell you it was not a civil war where everyone killed everyone like you say, but it was a planned aggression by Serbia with all Yugoslav army equipment, soldiers and officers. It was performed against newly UN recognised country and unarmed civilians with intent of a genocide and ethnic cleansing of Bosniaks and annexation of Bosnia to Serbia. UN at the same time imposed arms embargo that did not allow Bosniaks to arm themselves to counter balance the overwhelming Serbian arms dominance. However, the Bosniaks made up the difference with their heroic brave fighters that endured the worst possible conditions with no food and weapons and still managed to defeat the genocidal Serbian army. And not only did Bosniaks endured all that but they also protected all the churches in Sarajevo during the war and had representatives of all ethnicities in the government unlike the other sides that destroyed all the mosques that thy could.
I think CZcams algorithm automatically subscribe me to this channel due his insatiable eye candy looks and intellect. I wonder what it's like to meet him in person. Gosh, he's amazing. High School history text books back in the day were trash. Especially when your high school teacher let you nap in the afternoon on your desk.
Thanks for the kind words bro! Glad if I'm able to present history in an interesting way
@@NadirOnTheGo You are so humble carry on bro
Damn, It's a better way to explain buddy, God blase you.
I was literally waiting for this BOSNIA vlog. But never thought it would be like , mean that much details about the whole war. GREAT 🔥🔥🔥

@@ArchiBiH Very well put together for clarification purposes.
I, as a 53-year-old former Yugoslav, now a proud Bosnian resident of the city of Sarajevo from a mixed marriage of a Serb and a Muslim woman, who survived the horrors of the war in Sarajevo as a citizen and as a fighter, I can say that this is one of the most objective representations of the situation that was then. Especially for someone who is encountering it for the first time and trying to understand the seriousness of those events and the causes that led to it. Be convinced that today many of our neighbors neither can nor want to accept and understand the situation at that time as you understood it and described it here. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
You mean an orthodox and a Bosniak woman
Naravno, svaki srbin koji uzme zenu koja nije srpkinja pravi kompromis, dok npr kod muslimana djeca su muslimani, hrvata hrvati, albanca albanci. Samo kod srba Jugosloveni, e sad jel to ne govori o velicini?
@@konstantinbodin9936 SIKTER SKOTE GENOCIDNI!
@@konstantinbodin9936 Није ти тај ни С од Србина.
I remember my dad used to listen news about Bosnia during that time. I was in my primary school, so just used be sad. Thank you for detail information about this history, InshaAllah next half term trip my destination will be Sarajevo. Best wishes ❤
its all a lie
Bro, first of all thank you for teaching us some history.I was captivated the whole 21 minutes of the video as you described the history of the events. I almost teared up towards the end. Please don't stop doing this. I really hope you have a million subscribers one day. Lots of love brother. Looking forward to learn more history from you.
Bro you just passed Bosnian subject, great job! I've got goosebumps by listening this, cus it feels like you were born here. Every part of the story puzzles in like you went through everything. Keep up like this! And one interesting fact, I still live in Sarajevo and after all Sarajevo has been through its still full of love and it will welcome everyone again. There was a lot of armies tried to conquer Bosnia and Herzegovina but non of them could achieve it.
A video with so much history and information. It's like an audible version of a very sad historical book. So much research.
Yet he missed to realize the main cause of the war there.
I can watch your videos the whole day and still not getting tired! My favourite professor is back with another historical vlog and my hunger to learn about world war will never end ❤️
Cheers brother!
@@NadirOnTheGo ❤️
Its hard to believe that somebody didn’t hear about war in Bosnia.. in the heart of Europe
Thank you very much for this very well put together presentation 🙏
I became emotional when I heard your descriptions of Bosnia. Thank you Nadir. War crime has been committed there but no effective judge has been done by the UNO or other organisations or any country against this. Genocide took place there. We hope not to happen like Bosnia in anywhere or any time in the world. All the best to Nadir for his excellent description about Bosnia. Thank again for the video.
Yes, genocide took place there and most of the victims were Muslims.
I am a history lover and believe me, you just added another great topic in my mind- keep going with all your staff.
Thank you for an authentic share and for educating yourself on the history 🙏
Another very informative video, Nadir. I love it how interesting you make these videos and educate us all. I've been following your journey for some time now on the other channel. As someone living in Bangladesh, I'm so proud to see how far you've come and how you use your platform to show us the world in a beautiful way whilst also educating us. All the love.
Thank you very much for keeping my request. 🇧🇩💖🇧🇦
That special video over Bosnia & Hercegovina is very informative and useful. I'm happy with the ancillary books you recommended.
Both are great books!
I've never listened to my classes this emotionally like I listened to this video and I'm a student of International Relations. This history is really really tormenting. And you presented it very well. Thank you.
❤thank you Nadir! 🙏 hopefully the world will learn and live together
I was interested about Yogoslavia. I knew a little bit about Yogoslav war. But you explained those tragic events in such a manner which made me sad and spellbound. Surely you are a good storyteller and have a compassionate heart. Keep up the good work.
At first I was sad to hearing about the history, but at the end of the video, you have said so beautifully, how they are moving on ….
❤️💔
We are very proud to have a vloger like you brother.You're extraordinary!
Ok i don't understand why this channel have not got 1million subscriber yet.
The contents of this channel are tottaly awesome.
Best travelling vlog to me
One of my best always told me about this... U did really a good job in portraying everything.....hope to see more from u🖤🖤
Loved your work. Lots of information. Keep it up. ✌🏼 Wish you all the best for newer stories such as this one.
I dont know what to say. You sir are a great story teller and I have heard many time that Bosnia has a very sad history and I am glad I could know it from you.
You are one of a kind, Nader! Keep up the great work!
Such a great story teller..
Thank you for sharing.. I am learning a lot from you 😊😊😊
More power Nadir God bless!!
❤️ From the Philippines
exactly - he is STORY TELLER
@verbaldk1 a story teller in this case true story teller beats being a troll, would do think.
One of the most excellent videos I have watched recently💯♥️
You are a really talented guy. You study a lot about the place you visited. Those information helps us a lot to find out the summary of the historical places. It's a little bit of shame that people are now not so interested in History. But you have managed to attract a lot of younger people like me to full fill the thirstiness of History. Hats off to you.
I really enjoy your video. This video is historical and informative. Thank you so much, brother.
Wonderful video full of historical information .also educational about the whole war
You're such a beautiful human being. I'm so happy that I discovered your channel ❤️
This is amazing. I bet this is one of the best videos I have ever seen on youtube You are an amazing storyteller I should say. I work in a buying house and we ship garments for one of our Serbian buyers (Sports Vision). They came to BD several times and I really never thought this country could have such tragic histories. Thanks, Nadir Bhai for bringing such histories to us. I was about to cry when you were explaining the genocide and aftermath to these people. Love you brother.
The chances are your Serbian customers are outright denying genocide in Bosnia. You could ask them and see what they think. Not everyone from Yugoslavia was a victim, plenty of them were on the side of perpetrators of war crimes, either morally, financially, or quite literally the executioners.

Perfectly done. You did it the Yugoslav Wars justice in a heartfelt way that was still easy to understand. A very complex issue and you presented on a way that anyone could understand. Thanks for the history lesson
yep, even morons like you coud understand it..
Thanks buddy for bringing this beautiful piece of history! Didn’t know much about Sarajevo ! Well now I do…
and now you know? 😂😂😂😂
you guys are so dumb and shallow
Its really outstanding bro..carry on culture and history about Balkan era.salut....
You are a best vloger..
Proud of you..
From Bangladesh..
Our brother ❤
It's hard to watch this but is truth. Thx for video.
Thanks You so much, verry emozionale for me as Jugoslavian
History teacher we all wanted 💕
Great way towards emergence of great travel bloggers like Rick Steves, lots of study and endeavor to know lands and people. Perhaps I was at your age when the war, ethnic cleansing and genoside was going on in Bosnia before the eye of so called civilized nations who were mere spectators. After so many years you remind me those days. Your description of the events is so informative and accurate that it seems you were physically present during the war. Hope you the best. Regards.
Thank You Nadir Bhai for another masterpiece! 💚 🇧🇩 🇧🇦
?????
Very long video but instructive. ❤❤❤ from Bangladesh
Let's find a great CZcams channel that has a lot to learn..I will continue to support. I would like to say one thing which is that you are getting good support as you continue..
I also have a hobby of visiting and observing different architectural Roman civilizations. I hope you will visit more ancient countries and teach us different things.🖤🇧🇩

Literally a long waiting vlog
Tow years back, when I heard about srebrenica genocide, I couldn’t help my self from weeping. And I can firmly say, no one could hold his tears if he had a rational, humanistic mind. This horrific story still shaken me up.
Big fan ❤️
Big fan via love you
Oh our God,the tragedy was just horrible 💔
I am from Bosnia, open-minded liberal, and have friends from all nationalities, but you're wrong talking about new generations....they are taught to hate unfortunately, if you want we can have a conversation about this
Great Man.... You are the pride of our Bangladesh...
Man U r amazing
Love you brother
People just ignored bad times nowadays. When i was, saw that episode. I had a warm cup of tea with me. When i was Taken a single sip and thought that i am a bad person. Because when the Seige was on There were lots of people ignore those innocent people with a warm cup of coffee.
Personally I had just a sound knowledge about this siege, but Nadir help me a lot. Thank you
P.S: Your full video i just saw a person with full deep emotion which was hide on his eyes.
Hello Dear Nadir, Huge Thank for that ...Refreshing the Painfully time of part of Balkans "new" history. I remember that hard time looks like it was the day before yesterday. Bless you to continue more and more. Hopefully after 30 years remember the past BUT Looking forward To Possibility of Biulding Huge Bridges in Colture, Freinship, ABOVE ALL.

Aree Bhaia❤️❤️❤️❤️
I simply want to THANK YOU for a touching presentation on Serbia. I was really moved by the way your reasons and thoughts put forth on the tragedy of human life but also reaffirming the truth that life must go on since it is the mechanism of the universal creation that we can not expect but endure in true perspectives for resilience.
history lesson with Nadir
It is impossible for me to Watch this vedio and hold my tear😭
Love u vai...♥
oh man! you make me cry in the middle of the night. actually tonight I have a different thought about Palestine. May be one day you will make a vlog sitting in Gaza, my eyes will cry "অবাক সুখের কান্না". Every cloud has a silver lining after all!
Thanks from Bosnia good video 👍
You should visit Jasenovac, learn about Balkan history before war in 90's (for example WWII) and you will have complete picture of war in 90's. I mentioned that because you should know why most of Serbs didn't want to separate from Yugoslavia (Serbia). We all agree about one thing: war is not good for anyone and bad people surface and then make crimes. But it not depends about nation. Not only Serbs made crimes. Learn about massacre in Bratunac in 1992-1993, exodus Serbs from Mostar, Tuzla... And check who actually murdered people in Markale market in Sarajevo. Medal always has another side. And of course I know that war crimes on Serb's side exist. But you should know that most of Serbs (more than 95% from my point of view) did not attack Bosniaks or Croats but were saving their motherland. I was born in Bosnia as Serb and have right to speak about this topic.
Nemoj da sereš Mitomane na Markalama je dokazano da ste vi ispalili granatu i ono govno je presudjeno zbog toga...Koji Bratunac kravicu jel da li je neko osudjen...Oslobodjeni su tih optužbi...Kada budu osudjeni i ja ču ih osuditi...Zločin je zločin ali ljudi iz tvog naroda su počinili Genocid...To cijeli svijet zna...Nemoj pričat gluposti za Markale kad je sve dokazano odakle je doletila granata
I heard little about Bosnian Genocide but this is much more worse than i even reckoned.. Heartbreaking really heartbreaking
6000 people is genocide, those same muslims killed 100k people during ww2 and they were aligned with Hitler together with Nazzi Croats. But you won't hear that from selective people who are trying yet again to make victims out of the people that did far worse monstrosities. Those poor peacfull Bosniaks cut of the breasts of my Aunt riped the baby out of her stomac (she was pregnant) and stuffed her with earth. Most of the butchering done while she was alive.
Love Bosnia 🇧🇦 from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Horrified by those atrocities. In fact, such incidents are still ongoing in horrific manner. The Gaza strip is under blockade and siege for 15 years! Where is the end!
I just want to give akcent on Bosnians not Bosniaks because we bein calld others and this group of people is one of moste inportent reasons that BiH still exist, and thats wy this thing become even more complicated.
Bosnians are people who has moral , etic, and politic priorytoes above etnic and confesional prioryties!
You doing a good thing
Thank You
why man so less subscribers??
He deserve more..
He has another channel with around 400k subscribers
Would be better if you could avoid the background noise. Other than that excellent
Waiting for that
I'm the biggest fan of you
want you from many vlogs Nice..
Bro, this video is fantastic and much informative but if it had been in Bangla, the bengali talking people would have been understood the whole things very easily.
Hi Nadir. I think that Sarajevo roses are marks where civilians were killed from shelling. Obviously there are many more spots were nobody was injured.
As one old Arab saying goes...there's no bigger hatred than brother's hatred.
brothers?... it looks like your dad is your brother as well
Hi, I am a history lover, you just added another great topic to my mind.
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Salam brother me first ❤️
