However, nobody has ever wanted to talk about Bosniak victims of Jasenovac, just as if they never existed. <BR/><BR/>There is a book, over 500 pages in length detailing crimes of Ustasha regime in Jasenovac, including crimes against Bosniaks who were tortured and killed in this camp. The book is titled: Bosniaks in Jasenovac Concentration Camp by Nihad Halilbegovic. I wanted to purchase it, but it's a bit expensive for me. Here is the link from Bosnian online book selling site, Interliber.com:<BR/><BR/>http://www.interliber.com/catlistdetail.asp?SID=Interliber^1892373-2007-10-23-21-42&ProductID=30790&ml=b<BR/><BR/>When it comes to Serb victims of Jasenovac, according to the U.S. Holocaust Museum, <BR/><BR/>"The most reliable figures place the number of Serbs killed by the Ustaša between 330,000 and 390,000, with 45,000 to 52,000 Serbs murdered in Jasenovac." Serb editors have deleted this part from the article because it's more convenient to believe in a myth of 700,000 Serbs dead even though the United States Holocaust museum has stated that the most reliable figures place the number of Serbs killed in Jasenovac to 45,000-52,000."<BR/><BR/>Source: <BR/>http://www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/online/jasenovac/frameset.html?L= .<BR/><BR/>On another note: The Bosniak Institute in Zürich published in 1998 a list of all registered victims of the two concentration camps on the basis of data drawn from the Office for Statistics in Belgrade. This gives a figure of 59,188 known deaths at Jasenovac and Stara Gradiška, of which 33,944 were Serbs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
