1. How exactly Bosnian lawsuit against Serbia for genocide was sabotaged

By Muhamed Borogovac, Boston MA

Due to Nevenka Tromp's response to Izetbegovic's "advisors," we now know exactly what happened with the Revision of Bosnian Lawsuite against Serbia for genocide.

Regarding the revision of the judgment from 2007 for genocide, there are several very well informed actors, for example: Jeffrey Nice and his assistant Nevenka Tromp, Francis Boyle, David Scheffer, Sakib Softic and others. A key player is the Bosniak member of the Presidency, Bakir Izetbegovic who pulls all the strings, the only one who knows exactly what is going on. We will see later that Ivanic also knew. Obedient proxies of Izetbegovic are in a very diverse team, made up of so-called "Women of Srebrenica" and the bunch of Izetbegovic's puppets called "advisors".

We have read so far the testimonies of all the above mentioned actors. Each of them knows part of the truth. Some do not see the whole picture because of language barriers, some because they are not well informed about Bosnian politics. Admittedly, none saw the whole picture until we read the interview of Professor Nevenka Tromp, associate of Jeffrey Nice's. She and Nice see large parts of the puzzle, but not all, or they do not want to say that Izetbegovic was the one pulling the strings. They rather used the theory that Izetbegovic was "fooled by his advisors"? We know that this is not the case, that Izetbegovic advisers are too insignificant, "expendables" and that Izetbegovic was the one pulling the strings.

The following quote from Prof. Tromp's public response in Avaz to "Izetbegovic's advisor" Dzevad Mahmutovic has completed the puzzle. Tromp wrote to Mahmutovic:

"While Bosniak public does not know anything about Softic's correspondence with ICJ (in May 2016, M. B.), Mr. Ivanic knows. And he sent in July 2016, his now famous letter to registrar of ICJ on the status of the agent and procedure. You will remember this letter quite well, because the former ambassador called you upon the receipt of the letter and asked you what to do with it. He asked for a good reason, because no member of the Presidency can send a letter on his own, without the consent of the other two members. You were on vacation but you told him to forward the letter to ICJ. "- End quote.

Here's what is important to know: The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is the court that deals only with nations and as such communicates only with nations, i.e. corresponds only with authorized representatives of the nations. The authorized representative in this case was Amir Ahmic. There was no other way for Ivanic's letter reach the Registry of ICJ in The Hague, and to reopen the issue of the Bosnian agent at the ICJ, if that letter was not delivered to registrar by ambassador Amir Ahmic on behalf of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina. (Remember in the previous episode, in 2004, authorized representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina had not submitted a similar letter by Zivko Radisic to registrar ICJ, because he did not get approval of Beriz Belkic, Bosniak member of Presidency.)

So, in these events Dzevad Mahmutovic is the key Izetbegovic's player in the field, and it is obvious that Amir Ahmic knows that, because he obeyed Mahmutovic, just like he obeys Izetbegovic. So Muhmutovic here serves as a layer of protection for Izetbegovic. Because of his role, there is no direct evidence that Izetbegovic approved the final blow to the Revision (Ivanic's letter on behalf of Bosnia to ICJ). Dzevad Mahmutovic is merely a sacrificial lamb.

This episode also proves that Ivanic and Izetbegovic conspired together. Ivanic must have known that ICJ communicates only with the Ambassador Ahmic and that Ivanic's letter to the International Court in The Hague would never be received by the Court, if Izetbegovic did not approve. Obviously, Ivanic did have Izetbegovic's promise that this letter will be delivered by Ahmic to ICJ, otherwise that would not make any sense to send his letter to Ahmic. That letter was treated as a document of Bosnia, not as letter of a private person Ivanic, because it was delivered through the official state channel. That is how effectively the door for Judge's request for renaming Bosnian agent was opened.

So while Izetbegovic was telling the public that "there should not be a new decision on the revision because it is a continuation of pre-existing processes," that argument had already been sabotaged by his own prior action when he allowed Amir Ahmic to submit Ivanic's letter to the Court as a document of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

We have never heard about Mahmutovic. That is expected. He exists only to be blamed for Bakir Izetbegovic's mistake. It is also how Alija Izetbegovic masked his treasons. Remember the example when Alija Izetbegovic sent Muhamed Sacirbegovic in September 1995 to Geneva to sign that 49% of Bosnia belongs to Serbs, even though Serbs were defeated and Bosnian Army was in front of Banja Luka and Prijedor. For a long time Bosnians cursed Sacirbegovic and the Americans, rather than the person who indeed was making fatal decisions in Bosnia.

2. The second press release of the book "War in Bosnia" by Muhamed Borogovac

Author breaks all stereotypes of Bosnian war

BOSTON – In the 1990s, after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, Serbian army, supported by local Serbs, invaded neighboring newly independent nations of Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the long oppressed autonomous region of Kosovo. These campaigns, which Serbia's nationalist ideologues named "ethnic cleansing" had a goal of carving out territories for Serb minorities in those countries. In each case, Serbia was soundly defeated on the battlefield. Yet in the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina only, despite military defeat at the end, Serbia achieved its goal of creating a puppet state, "Serbian Republic" ethnically cleansed of non-Serbs on 49% of the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Muhamed Borogovac's "The War in Bosnia" (published by X libris) deals with the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the viewpoint of a Bosnian as he sees the Serbian political and intelligence strategy unfold on the ground in Bosnia. The testimony gives answers to difficult questions. How did Serbia get away with illegal aggression and genocide, which were universally condemned from the start, yet was rewarded with recognized territorial gains in Bosnia and Herzegovina? Which steps by two U.S. administrations were effective in supporting international law and countering aggression, and which steps contributed to the miscarriage of international law represented by the end result?

Does Bosnia's example provide a playbook followed by dictators with appetites for territories of neighboring states, such as Putin in Ukraine and Georgia?
