From an outsiders point of view it piece of tail seem comparable a self-serving mission or even some crazy form of moral or immoral self-deception. even, in war strategies, humanitarian efforts are widely distributed through all aspects of our art of war such as the Geneva conventions. In operation deliberate force the guess of air strikes came to be the most humane effort in that of shortening the war as well as bringing the amount of innocent execrable to a minimum.Bosnia and Herzegovina is located in the south east region of Europe, in the Balkan Peninsula. It borders with the Republic of Croatia in the north, west and southwest and with Serbia and Montenegro in the east and south. The Ivan Sedlo sad dle (much like a valley) found between the mountains Bitovnje and Bjelanica connects the two major wholes of the country, the more populated and considerable in forests and land, Bosnia in the north and the smaller, rocky Herzegovina in the south.

The Serbians who were the main antagonist throughout this war notion they were much more militarily inclined than they actually were therefore when just a small amount of air strikes were implemented by NATO it occurred to them that they should probably quit while they still could. Operation Deliberate Force in my opinion, proves how effective air support can be, and how efficient it is at bringing all things conflict related to an end much quicker than ground battle, and with much less casualties, both civilian and military, at that.
