Unless you have been personally victimized by the war Serbia brought to our people, you have absolutely no right to speak about forgiveness being deserved after 20 yrs have passed. They have yet to acknowledge the crimes against humanity, so how are we supposed to forgive&forget?

April 14th is the saddest day of my life. Even though it has been 23 years, I still cant get past the trauma I endured by a Serbian police officer, and civilian. My heart goes out to all of the war victims
