		Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic warned that by abandoning the Lisbon Agreement and giving the Bosnian Muslims the green light to wage a civil war would result in the needless loss of life and in wanton destruction, a civil war would result in ‘hundreds of thousand dead and hundreds of towns destroyed'.

		In fact, the civil war in the former Yugoslavia was meticulously and carefully modeled upon the Gulf War scenario, with the Serbs in the role of the Iraqis, and the Slovenes, Croats, Bosnian Muslims, and Kosovo Albanians as the Kuwaiti victims.
