The civilians then organised armed resistance. These armed conflicts between the Croatian armed forces (?police?) and civilians mark the beginning of the Yugoslav war that inflamed the region. Similarly, the attempt to replace Yugoslav frontier police by the Slovenian police provoked regional armed conflicts which finished with a minimal number of victims."
Seems to me its pretty clear who started the actual war.
Your armed forces vs. unarmed civilians. Way to go. No wonder people went balistic.

What a load of crap. It's like saying that US tried to place their police in Florida and because of that war broke out.
Imagine anywhere in the world civilians attacking police forces. How would you call it? I guess in civilized world they would call them terrorists. Also,there were no so called Krajina in first place. It was,and still is,only Croatia.
Unarmed civilians took 30% of our territory. Yeah,right.
