Why people Let this Happen
The Serb's aim was the “ethnic cleansing” of any Bosniak presence in Serbian territory. This term meant that various human right violations occurred that ranged from curfews and forced relocation to rape and imprisonment in concentration camps, and death. Most Serbs in Bosnia were spared but Bosniaks were nearly wiped out from Bosnia due to disagreements with Serb civilians, the government, and the way they operated. Many Bosniaks did not have the power to rebel against the government and the genocide as the government had allies from Yugoslavia, so all they could do was stand by and let their family perish. This is the main reason why people involved in genocides have no power to stop it. The other half of the population that consisted of Serbs had no intent of stopping this genocide as they favored their government and resented the Bosniaks for trying to secede.
Many people around the world at this time did not know what was going in Bosnia and were unable to react to this. This is another main reason why this genocide and many others cannot be contained and stopped before the majority of that populations is lost.
