are spoken

it's still not
enough to stop the wnr. I m more
convinced that tougher actions,
including large-scale military
intervention, are necessary. War
criminals should be tried and
forced out of power, and democ
racy of BiH should be restored to
the pre-war border.
When people who are respon
sible for the wars are out of pow

Bill. Croatia and Serbia. The
long-term support is necessary,
and all the process should be
shared by countries who can
afford to do it. The United States
doesn't have to be a policeman of
the world. Conscience of the
nations who are dedicating to
democracy and freedom should

Refugee camp in
Obonjan (July 24)
Ohonjan. a barren island near
Sihumk. has the one of the biggest
refugee camps in Dalmatian
coast. It doesn't have a water sup
ply on its own. and there are iron

humanitarian organizations are

because more and more refugees
are coming in. When I visited the
island, the population of the
tramp was 970 (90 percent Mus
lims from Biff). After a little bit
of change, the number of refugees
is now about 1,200. (The capaci
ty of the camp is 1,500.).
There were 450 people in
houses and rest of them were liv
ing in tents. There is a cafeteria,
providing meals three times a
day. There were 7fi people, who
didn't have identifications for
themselves, and they wore not
