Uncomfortable Truths: War Crimes in the Balkans
Across the Balkans many survivors of the bloody conflicts of the 1990s still don’t know what happened to their missing loved ones. In Kosovo, even discussing the suffering of other ethnic communities is strictly taboo. What hope for lasting peace and reconciliation?

THE BOSNIAN CALCULATION
By GEORGE KENNEY;
Published: April 23, 1995

ALL TOLD, HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED IN Bosnia? For news organizations and policy specialists, the easy answer is 200,000. As someone who has followed the conflict closely from the beginning in a professional capacity, I’m not convinced. Bosnia isn’t the Holocaust or Rwanda; it’s Lebanon.

By my count, the number of fatalities in Bosnia’s war isn’t 200,000 but 25,000 to 60,000 — total, from all sides. What surprises me is not that the popular figure is so inflated — informed people can and will argue about it for some time to come — but that it has been so widely and uncritically accepted.
