Prisoners of War Alliance has asked the Motion Picture Association of
America to revoke the Oscar awarded to a Bosnian Muslim film maker Danis
Tanovic who's film No Man's Land, according to the allegations, shows Serb
victims as Muslims victimized by Serb violence.
Serbian survivors of Bosnian Muslim concentration camps say that they
discovered the fraud while recording a documentary film on Muslim atrocities
in the area of Gornje Podrinje where thousands of Serbs were massacred
by Bosnian Muslim forces.

Veljko Lasica, an ethic Serb survivor of a Muslim attack that killed
25 Serb civilians in Kukavice, says that Tanovic used that particular incident
to claim in the movie that the killed Serb civilians were Muslims.
"It is never too late to uncover fabricated war lies and get to the
truth so it is with this amazing film-fraud that is compromising the prestigious
Oscar, that was pointed to us by the Serb survivors of Gorazde concentration
camp that live now abroad," says Lasica. |
