island. In winter, refugees cannot stay in tents. Therefore, more hous
es should be built, but there is not enough money in the govern
ment and local humanitarian organizations. Another way is that
foreign countries are expected to accept those refugees. For example,

last winter. However, this organized immigration
is not common because refugees usually need to
have relatives in foreign countries if they want
to get out of Croatia.
In the camp. I talked with some families from
Mostar who were recently expelled by HVO. and
those from Foca in eastern BiH. The families from
Mostar told me their horrible stories about the
Croatian version of ethnic cleansing. Since June,
the situation of Mostar was deteriorating rapid
ly. Men were in jails and forced to work in front lines like making
bankers for HVO, They were only given a cup of tea and bread in
mornings and soup in the afternoons. They were subjected to torture,
and many of them died. In the meantime, the rest of the families at
home were harassed by HVO soldiers. They made excuses like search
ing for weapons inside of houses and assaulted women and children.
On July lfl. HVO allowed men logo liack home, but their purpose was
to let them pack up everything with rest of their families and forced
them to leave Mostar Then, among those who were expelled by Bosn
ian Croats, about 500 Muslims from Mostar Mine to Obonjan.
As of now. still 55,000 Muslims and others ore trapped on the
east bank of the Neretva River. International humanitarian organi
zations were forcedout of Mostar, and even the U.N. convoys can
not get through to the east bank. In the west bank, occupied by Bosn
ian Croats, Muslims have no way but to get out of that area, and those
in the east hank have become hopeless, sandwiched last ween the HVO
and the BSA.
Tlie families from Foca had been living in the camp for more than
a year since they fled from their town, which was destroyed by Bosn
ian Serbs They said it was the first time talking with foreigners while
many journalists and humanitarian workers were coming to Obon
jan. They want to get off of the island, but they can't because they
don't have any relatives or can't make contact w ith them in foreign
countries. It's extremely hard for refugees who don't have personal
connections abroad to immigrate to another country. They can't even
get support from outside, so they have to beg other refugee families
to give them some supply stuff. They have no place to go home and
are trapped in this isolated island without any prospect about the
future.
Zagreb (July 25 -Aug. 1)
Zagreb was busy creating its own image ns a historical city that was
going to celebrate its 900th birthday next year Many rood construc
tions were going on, and people were gathering in the open markets
to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. There were many cafes and bars,
and people were chatting and cheerfully singing in groups. As else
where in Croatia, there were national flags on windows of shops and
houses. It's all right to have the flags, but it seems to me there were
too many. Croatia is trying to make more attractions and invite more
tourists from all over the world Their effort seems to me that it's just
for superficial decoration. It's necessary to clean up the image, but in
order to do so, it's crucial to change the authorities’ attitudes.
A few months ago. the last independent, national daily newspaper,
culled Slohodna Daimanja, was put under state control. There are
increasing elements of totalitarianism in Croatian political and pub
lic; itle. and the Tudjman government is making a someone-to-biame
strategy Sine* the fighting between the HVQ and BiH armies inten
sified. the anti-Muslim campaign in Croatian state media has been
increased. Influenced by Herzegovinan lobby, the Tudjman govern
ment is tryitig to contribute to politicians in western Herzegovina.
It seems that influence makes Tudiman turn to right-wing HDZ politi
cians from western Herzegovina who were dreaming of annexation
of the region of 150,000 people to Croatia. In the meantime, the fate
of 450.000 Bosnian Croats who live elsewhere in BiH (31.000 in Sara
jevo) is neglec ted I should say they are even abused because their
misery is used for an attack against Muslims after many of them fled
to Herzegovina
