Bosnia
Contined From Page 1
The United States has
sidestepped the conflict be
cause it has no economic rea
son to become involved ,
Ahmed said. The region has
no oil and no resources
which the United States con
siders valuable.
"The reason the United
States has avoided its moral
obligation to help the op
pressed Bosnians is that it's
not politically expedient of
George Bush," Memon said.
Ahmed said she would
like the United States to in
tervene in Bosnia, even to the
point of sending military
troops into the region. Only
in this way can human rights
be preserved, she said.
Moharram said he hopes
both sides in Bosnia learn to
understand and appreciate
the differences between
them.
"I hope the Serbians real
ize what they have done is
humanitarily wrong," Mo
harram said. "I hope that the
Muslims in Bosnia realize
that they owe more to being
Muslim than just their names
on their birth certificates."
