I just heard a fragment of the report that several Orthodox churches in Bosnia had been torched-allegedly by Albanian muslims. Is this true? I guess I had believed that the whole ethnic violence-warefare in Bosnia had quieted down-I mean, the US and European powers have had troops there for over 10 years?
Does this herald a new round of ethnic violence? What doe Muslim religious leaders (mullahs) have to say about this?
I’d appreciate some links.
Thanks
I don’t think there are a great amount of Albanian Muslims in Bosnia, perhaps you you mean Bosnian Muslims in Bosnia or (Muslim) Albanians in Kosovo.
Kosovo.
Nato has just deployed reinforcements to Kosovo - link - which may be related to the news report the OP heard.
In relation to Kosovo, it’s not so much that the ethnic violence has quieted-down, more that the media coverage of it has.
Oh, didn’t spot it before. Kosovo rioters burn Serb churches
Probably the same thing that the Orthodox priests have said about the vengeance burnings of mosques in this situation. It is pretty clearly an ethnic feud, not a religious one.
