  1. You never cover stories about the butchers in Pakistan. General Yayha Khan butcher of Bangladesh, just for starters. Thousands of women at the hands of his lahori soldiers in East Pakistan.
    The UK supported him and his merry men at that time.

  2. Typical BBC, he was not known as the Butcher of Bosnia, he was most time drunk! The BBC report now and at the time created a lot of division which the intended to do, Serbia was not creating a ethic pure Bosnia or Croatia, but because the Turks and Tito, Co did what the now EU and the BBC are pushing and that is mix cultures in a territory, this is the outcome no clear boarders and civil war, coming to Europe and Britain next!

  3. A heroe to people who worked all their lives, payed taxes for futures hoped for. In time, he will be vindicated, especially in Britain, where the muslim terrorist government endorsed invasion of Europe is on going…….
    ⚖️🇬🇧⚖️

  4. And yet the UN and the west stand by while hundreds of thousands of Christian’s are slaughtered in Nigeria, Ethiopia and Sudan by Islamic forces.
    Last year alone, Muslims killled
    500 THOUSAND Christians in only Nigeria. Why are they only talking about Palestine today??
