Nein, war er nicht. Wurde schon einige Male geklärt. Bild zeigt eher Putin und nicht Izetbegovic
Man liest gegensätzliches, er war zumindest Teil der "Young Muslims", aus denen wohl iwann die Handzar hervorging, welche aber ursprünglich gegen Hitler gerichtet war:
"From the early days of his youth, Izetbegovic was a member of Young Muslims, an organization advocating a purer form of Islam that was outlawed after World War II by the new communist regime, led by Josip Broz Tito. In 1946, Izetbegovic was arrested and put in jail for three years, at least in part for statements against the Soviet Union, with which Tito, at the time, was aligned."
Alija Izetbegovic, a devout Muslim whose religion and politics landed him in Yugoslav jails but who went on to lead the Bosnian people through a cataclysmic war and eventually into independence, died Sunday in a Sarajevo hospital.

"Young Muslims got involved in the dissemination of such resolutions and joined their demands for the autonomy of Bosnia and Herzegovina. With the support of the Mufti of Jerusalem
Amin al-Husseini, their demands were presented to the
German authorities in the form of a memorandum where they offered the support of Bosnian Muslims in exchange for autonomy under the direct patronage of the Third Reich. Although this initiative remained with no results, it led to the formation of the
13th Waffen-SS division Handschar, to which many Young Muslims joined. At the end of the war, however, majority of the division joined the
Yugoslav Partisans of
Josip Broz Tito.

Klingt nach dem üblichen Opportunismus, bzw. der Not, sich in Kriegszeiten an die aktuell stärksten zu hängen, so wie man auch in der Ukraine den rechten Sektor vor allem vermutlich nutzt, weil man es muss und es effektiv ist.
