      If you thoroughly want to ruin your week I highly recommend this. Lesson learned regarding Ukraine is very clear: if we offer any security guarantees, the rules of engagement have to be very clear and well communicated, the threat must be credible, and the European backing sincere and strong. Otherwise we will do more harm than good.

      I had a Canadian friend who was with the UN forces when they finally entered to enforce peace. He never recovered

      Know many Dutch friends who don’t want to speak about srebrenice. For people of certain age. Its a shame they would rather bury

      I’ve listened to a podcast on the topic and it traumatised me. These people should never be forgotten.

      I couldn’t finish Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder because it was just so horrific

      First read what lead to srebrenica and how muslim terrorist used srebrenica (which was no war zone at that time) as their base to go around small serbian vilages and slauther people. It is a shame what happened in srebrenica, but it was also shame what happened before that

      **Nineteen Minutes of Horror: Insights from the Scorpions Execution Video** by Iva Vukušić,
      (Utrecht University, part of Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal)

      I had a coworker who was active in the rememberence community. She was one of the survivors, a little girl back when it happened. Lost several of her relatives.

      The genocide of those Bosniak Muslims is often downplayed, and shockingly, many people don’t even know it happened. The Yugoslav conflicts and the wars in the Caucasus with Russia were some of the cruelest events to unfold in Europe after World War II, leaving scars that still linger today.

      I had a colleague who volunteered to take part in the operation to identify the people who had been massacred. He basically x-rayed exhumed corpses for weeks on end. He was a very different person when he returned.

      The BBC Documentary „The Death of Yugoslavia“ is also a very, very good one. Highly recommended.

      I gotta read this.

      December 1995, U.S. troops were sent to Bosnia to help protect Bosnians following the discovery of the Srebrencia massacre. National Guard units from my state also sent in troops and I (working at a local TV station) convinced my news director to send me and a fellow journalist to cover that angle.

      We left the states in January 1996 and stayed in Tuzla, Bosnia for a few days. One of the trips was to see where the mass graves were, but at that time, when we arrived, we were told the bodies had been exhumed.

      We still got a solid report about our Guard units as well as a report on a Tuzla bombing from summer 1995, by the Serbs that killed some 160 innocent men, women and children in the town square…which we linked to a similar tragedy in our state that same year (the Oklahoma City bombing).

      Note:

      July 2025: Even 30 years later, victims‘ remains are still being identified and buried, highlighting the ongoing process of uncovering and honoring the dead.

      Most Europeans supported it and took safaris to kill Bosnians. Fake crocodile tears to colonize Bosnia today

      I was 6 months old when this happened.

      My mother and my aunts had to carry me in turn, walking through woods and fields.

      My father spent months in a concentration camp. They killed one of my uncle in a forest while walking towards the camp. It took 15 years to find his body and identity it.

      My father still can’t talk about what he had to endure in that camp.

      Fuck fascism.

      it is really astonishing how many analogies there are in the yugoslavian wars with the war going on in Ukraine

    21. LolaBaraba on

      Does the book mention how Bosniaks used UN protection for 3 years to massacre Serbian civilians in the villages surrounding Srebrenica with no punishment?

    22. DonTorleone on

      It’s not all about Dutch, we had fkn embargo since the war started and the whole world was just „worried“ about the situation until Srebrenica happened.

      Imagine putting Ukraine under an embargo, just fkn imagine
