Hardly. I'm in a difficult position because I can't prove it, but I
would bet my ass that the information is correct, now that I think
about it. Also, every other piece of information about Croats and
Serbs can be verified if you want to:

"Serbia's Secret War : Propaganda and the Deceit of History"

I don't need to score points, I provide accurate info. You need to
score points because you dislike me and you'd be very happy to catch
me in a lie. However, I have no need for lies, especially about the
Serbs, because the truth is unpleasant enough, and I would really
dislike lying about history like they do.

And if I might add, this went far off-topic and has nothing to do with
neither yoga nor nonviolence, so if you have any comments on either of
those, you are wellcome.
