August 5 is the 13th anniversary of Croatia's 1995 genocidal ethnic
cleansing of over a quarter million of its own Serb citizens in a
blitzkrieg called "OPERATION STORM". Croatia celebrates this ethnic
cleansing as "Victory and Homeland Thanksgiving Day"
OPERATION STORM was the largest European land offensive since
World War II. International officials called it "the most efficient
ethnic cleansing in the Balkans."
