	Gendercide Watch: Bosnia-Herzegovina
		Indeed, the slaughter of Serbs, Jews, Muslims, Croats, and Roma (Gypsies) constituted one of the most genocidal theatres of that war; the Jewish population was nearly exterminated.
		In the light of long-established and heavily "gendered" strategies of intercommunal conflict in the Balkans, it was hardly surprising that the gender-selective massacre of non-combatant males would emerge as the dominant and most severe atrocity inflicted on the civilian population in the modern Balkans wars.
		But to this must be added the further slaughter during the "endgame" of the war in mid-1995, including the gendercidal massacre at Srebrenica and the Croat invasion of the Serb-held Krajina region later in the summer.

	War in Bosnia and Herzegovina - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina was a consequence of events in the wider region of former Yugoslavia, and due to the involvement of neighboring countries Croatia and Yugoslavia, there is an ongoing debate about whether the conflict was a civil war or a war of aggression.
		This was particularly noticeable in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, and to a lesser extent in Slovenia and Macedonia.
		Similarly, the regions of central Bosnia and Herzegovina (Sarajevo, Zenica, Maglaj, Zavidovici, Bugojno, Mostar, Konjic, etc.) saw the flight of its Serb population, migrating to the Serb-held areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

		SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina - Bosnian Croat authorities are systematically blocking the return of non-Croat refugees in towns adjacent to Croatia in clear violation of a 1995 peace agreement, an international watchdog agency reported Monday.
		Croat authorities orchestrated the torching of 25 homes in the town of Drvar last month as part of a campaign to discourage Serbs from moving back to the area, said the International Crisis Group (ICG), a private agency monitoring Bosnia's peace treaty.
		Croat, Serb and Muslim authorities alike have contrived to block the return of war refugees not belonging to the majority group in areas they control, but Western monitors say almost all the abuses occur on Serb- and Croat-held territory.

		Ante Jelavic - the Croat member of the country's three-person presidency - was also barred from holding any other elected post, according to a statement from the office of Wolfgang Petritsch, who oversees compliance with the 1995 peace agreement that ended the Bosnian war.
		Jelavic, leader of the hard-line Bosnian Croat Democratic Union, and other Bosnian Croat nationalists, pledged Saturday to create their own state in Bosnia - a violation of the country's constitution and the Dayton peace accord, the statement added.
		The Bosnian Croats based their decision on a change in election laws last year, which they say makes it impossible to retain positions which they held since the 1995 peace agreement.

		After the war, Bosnia Herzegovina became one of the six constituent republics of the Yugoslav federation.
		The Federal and Bosnian Serb armies under General Ratko Mladic, aided by paramilitary groups, began seizing territory in northern and eastern Bosnia, expelled much of the non-Serb population, and engaged in ethnic cleansing, in which intimidation or violence were used to remove all members of other ethnic groups from the area.
		The first is an informal greeting used by the Croats, so it would be very offensive to Serbs; the second is a gesture used by the Serbs, so it would be very offensive to Croats and Bosnian Muslims.

	Dealing with the Past in Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia
		Meanwhile in Bosnia, the continuing intransigence towards one another of hard-line parties representing the different ethnic factions – Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim), Serb and Croat – has pushed the UN High Representative, Paddy Ashdown, into tougher and tougher measures to try to force some sort of progress before he leaves.
		For instance in Bosnia not only do each of the parties currently in power represent an uninterrupted continuation of the same intransigent forces which prosecuted the war against one another but they are more or less secured in that position as the long-term consequence of the diplomatic settlement at Dayton, Ohio, in 1995.
		In Croatia last December and in Bosnia in March, they held major consultation meetings with some key respondents and others to develop their ideas and activities further.
