Widely ignored official reports and never-before-seen declassified files suggest shadowy British special forces operatives played a crucial role in one of the 20th century’s most notorious and controversial massacres.
In July 2023, few media observers took notice when influential British intelligence operative-turned-lawmaker Alicia Kearns issued a public call for Western boots on the ground in the former Yugoslavia.
Addressing a packed session of the House of Commons, Foreign Affairs Committee chair Kearns made the alarming call: “I…urge the Government: let us rejoin EUFOR, let us commit NATO peacekeepers to Brčko district, let us transition to a NATO-led peacekeeping mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina.”
The incendiary comments came during a parliamentary debate on Srebrenica Memorial Week, which commemorates the massacre of Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica by the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS), in July 1995.

For Immediate Release
A naturalized U.S. citizen from Bosnia and Herzegovina was arrested yesterday in Morgantown, West Virginia, on criminal charges related to allegations that she lied to obtain U.S. citizenship.
According to the indictment, Nada Radovan Tomanic, 51, of West Virginia, allegedly served with the Zulfikar Special Unit of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina during the armed conflict in that country in the 1990s. Along with other Zulfikar Special Unit soldiers, Tomanic allegedly participated in the physical and mental abuse of Bosnian Serb prisoners targeted on the basis of their ethnicity, religion, and membership in a particular social group. The indictment alleges that, when applying for naturalization, Tomanic falsely represented that she had not persecuted anyone because of their religion, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion and had never committed a crime for which she had not been arrested.

No genocide was committed against Serbs in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH). In that Nazi-fascist, Ustasha creation, there was genocide against Jews (holocaust) and Roma (porajmos), but no Serbocide took place. In that slaughterhouse and deathbed, Serbs were third-class or second-class victims. Second-class “mass violence” was committed against them.
With this thesis, German historian Alexander Korb defended his dissertation in 2011 at Berlin’s oldest Humboldt University, after which he was promoted to Doctor of Philosophy.
Three of Korb’s mentors, professors J. Baberovski, K. K. Patel and M. Wilt, they awarded him for this parascientific output with the highest academic grade (summa cum laude).
In the explanation of that decision, Baberovski wrote: “Korb’s dissertation is an outstanding contribution to the research of genocide and violence.” In the future, no one will be able to write about this topic in the usual way”.

BIJELJINA, 6 JANUARY /SRNA/ - The entry of the Republika Srpska Army /VRS/ into Srebrenica in the summer of 1995 was a forced operation, given the continued attacks by the so-called Army of BiH from the enclave, which is what the British document finally acknowledges, Miodrag Stojanović, a lawyer, told SRNA.
"This is just another in a series of confirmations what led to Operation Krivaja 95 and the entry of the VRS into Srebrenica," added Stojanović, who is part of the defence team of Head of the VRS Main Staff General Ratko Mladić.
He emphasized that the defence lawyers appearing in the Srebrenica cases constantly point out that the VRS operation was forced, given the continuity of operations the General Staff of the so-called Army of BiH had materialized upon the ordered by General Enver Hadžihasanović to the 28th Division to pressure and attack on the VRS by intensively sabotaging and conducting military operations from the enclave.
