Remove POV unsourced material

Removed this:

The gunmen were all paid 5,000 Deutsche Marks each by Mladen Naletilić known as Tuta, another Herzegovinian Croat who returned to the country from Australia. Naletilić was convicted of war crimes at the ICTY and is currently serving an 18 year sentence .... The assassination ended the existence of the HOS and cleared the way for the partition of Bosnia and Herzegovina...Mate Boban summoned him to a meeting in Široki Brijeg in August of 1992 to try to win him over.

Bosnian

The country is called Bosnia and Herzegovina (despite somebodies wishes)

Blaž Kraljević is ethnic Croat ,native of Herzegovina. So he is Herzegovinian Croat not Bosnian Croat (???)

Are David Coulthard and Jim Clark English drivers' ??? LOL Añtó| Àntó (talk) 16:27, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

In every major English newspaper Bosnian Croat(s) is used to refer to Croats of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This adjective is not only limited to Bosnian Croats as proven by Biruitorul

"Bosnian" is vastly preferred as an adjective for "Bosnia-Herzegovina". Some more figures from Google:

  • "Bosnian-Herzegovinian President": 5; "Bosnian President": 18,600
  • "Bosnian-Herzegovinian Army": 46; "Bosnian Army": 47,200
  • "Bosnian-Herzegovinian Parliament": 231; "Bosnian Parliament": 7,550
  • "Bosnian-Herzegovinian Flag": 141; "Bosnian Flag": 7,710
Clearly, English uses "Bosnian" as an adjective for Bosnia and Herzegovina, with the "Herzegovina" part implied but not stated outright. No need to make an exception here.
Your argument is hardly an argument at all and comes from someone hardly acquainted with the language. PRODUCER (talk) 17:30, 1 November 2009 (UTC)


I am aware what certain people think when they say Bosnia
