79. What? Jesus, I hope you never end up on a jury!
Because to you, an accusation is evidence enough of a crime to convict.

We know the Germans commited atrocities because they were documented in the form of photographs of them occuring, official documents describing the process, and independant witnesses to the events.

Soldiers found the ovens. Photos show the mass grave being filled.

There is all sorts of evidence beyond the claims made by the Jewish survivors.

Yet in the case of the supposed genocidal campaign carried out by Serbs, there is a distinct lack of evidence. In fact as Tinoire shows below in the thread, there have only been 2,000 bodies found, and not one mass grave of over 5 bodies.

The fact is, the 2,000 bodies were people killed during a major war between Serb forces and the KLA over the duration of nearly two years. The US military killed more innocent civillians in Iraq in two months than the Serbs supposedly killed in Kosovo during a genocidal campaign carried out over more than a year.

Are you really trying to tell me that constitutes evidence for such a campaign? The fact is that international forensic scientists that poured into Kosovo to expose all these mass graves ended up complaining that they had been misled, and that not only did they not find evidence of a genocidal campaign, the evidence they found suggests nothing more than "collateral damage" as the US likes to call it.

Not even considered is how many of these bodies were in fact KLA terrorists, nor how many may have been killed by KLA terrorists.

But if you want further circumstantial evidence that the supposed campaign of genocide was a KLA propaganda myth, then loook at what happened in Macedonia AFTER the Serbs surrendered. Once again, the KLA, backed by the US, began a terrorist camapign against a peaceful country. When they were exposed (and the US forced to prevent their actions) the KLA stopped attacking and the supposed genocide failed to materialise.

It was a tactic used by the KLA to accuse their victims of a heinous yet ficticious crime in order to justify their own heinous yet NOT ficticious crimes.
