Clinton reveals a dirty little European secret

This is pretty stunning. Bill Clinton says European leaders preferred to sit by and watch a genocide in the making rather than accept a Muslim state in Europe.

Former US President Bill Clinton, the pioneer of the Dayton Agreement that ended the war in Bosnia describes Europe's role in the massacres that took place in Bosnia in his latest memoirs.

Clinton particularly criticizes Francois Mitterrand, the French President at that time, in his book named "My Life." Clinton reveals the French President sympathy for the Serbs when he said he did not want a Bosnia under the rule of Muslims during one of the first meeting. Describing the Bosnian massacre as "the biggest collective security failure of the West since 1930's" Clinton observes that one of the important reasons for the genocide in Bosnia is that some European leaders did not want to see a Muslim country in the Balkans. He also emphasizes that some European countries did not want a Muslim country in the heart of Balkans in case it may produce Islamist terror but ignoring the events in Bosnia produced the result they were aiming to avoid.
