Bosnia - Islam influence increases

T/I 11:22:45 Western observers have noted increasing signs of the influence of Islam in Bosnia since the ceasefire. The ruling SDA Party sees its best way forward in Bosnia is to maintain a strong Muslim Party to counter the threat of Croatian and Serbian nationalistic parties which want to partition the country. Islam has also been evident in electioneering. SDA rallies are attended by Muslim clerics and are opened with prayers and appeals for Muslim brotherhood.
