Why? What's the evidence they would consider themselves Serbs and not Croats today if it weren't for the Ottoman conquest?

They are neither Serb nor Croat, but in terms of race if we must group them with one side they more leaning to Croats than to Serbs. Serbs have stronger Illyro-Armenoid native effect.

Even Bosniaks from the most western part of Bosnia (Cazinska Krajina) are mostly Serbian origin, such as Sinan Zirić (Bosniensis).

See? That's the propaganda I'm talking about. One of their peasant kings(Deretić, Šešelj) says it and they follow that like sheep. Hilarious, actually.
