I doubt the validity of this photo. First off there is no source confirming the photo and its description. Second off, there is no signs of window / door frames or roof structure. It can be seen that window / door frames were intentionally removed completely. Undamaged bricks are lying accurately on 2nd floor. If we look at the backside, an unfinished construction can be seen there. This can be result of war, or the house can be simply abandoned or unfinished. I. e. no source linking that photo to war. --windyhead (talk) 08:58, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Are you an expert? Actually this is almost a prototype of a house burnt down during the Yugoslav Wars with typical Serbian signature: cross with 4 C's, Cyrilic script massages or personal signatures and specific insulting conclusions about the Croats - obviously a house of a Croat burnt down by the Serbian paramilitaries.

Heh well, intentionally removed window / door frames is another typical sign: Serbs were robbing Croat houses before they set it on fire, which included even windows and frames (if brand new or higher quality), believe it or not, nothing was sacred. Roof is not up there since its construction is usually and traditionally made of wood in Croatia, obviously it dissapeared in flames and "unfinished construction" seen "at the backside" was obviously a part of a porch, roof misses above there.

There are thousands of damaged houses in Croatia, after the war, looking exactly like this one.

No offense, but your comment looks like watching a picture with a flower on it and saying that there is no source linking that photo to the flower. Zenanarh (talk) 12:50, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any reference fabout the location of the house? I.e., was it taken in Croat territory? Can you translate the graffiti and put the translation in the photo information? this would ease things for SH/HS-0 people. Thanks.--Dans (talk) 17:41, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Text is in Serbian language and mostly in Cyrillic, iconography (Serbian Orthodox) cross with 4 C's (Serbian nationalistic insignia). Texts are "Red Star champion", "God protects Serbs", "SAO Treba?a" (SAO=Serb Autonomic Oblast), "Ustashis sh*ted their trowsers".
Abandoned house? Unfinished house? Possibly. But how did that house became abandoned?
Greater Serbian forces 've forced many Croats on the occupied parts of Croatia to leave their homes. Some of those homes were being upgraded. Many such houses had ground floor and 1st floor. Additional floors and/or roof terraces were often added later, depending on salary influx and the need for additional space.
And in that moment, rebel Serbs/JNA and/or chetnik volunteers from Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina forced those Croats to abandon their homes.
"Undamaged bricks lying accurately"? Come on. Kubura (talk) 01:56, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
