And here is a lengthy but detailed and well written text on why a revisionist documentary called “A town betrayed” is not a good source to learn about what happened in Srebrenica.

In addition, there are separate posts about Višegrad and Prijedor.

I BEG YOU ALL READ THIS ACCOUNT FROM A SURVIVOR OF THE BOSNIAN GENOCIDE!!!

[chaiaurchaandni]

saw someone on twitter, whose family is in gaza, say the same thing: her sister told her that israelis are executing palestinian men and boys aged over 16, abducting them, forcing them to strip. these are displaced civilians and survivors. some people are defending the forceful stripping by saying that the purpose is to ensure there's no bomber vest/weapons which is ridiculous bec if that was the purpose, why are they taking pictures like trophies and circulating them online? why do they even suspect civilian men and boys trying to find safety with their families to be wearing a bomber vest? israelis have been releasing videos of stripping and beating palestinians since oct 7 - many of the palestinians victimized this way have been from the west bank. palestinians held in israeli jails are also stripped and beaten in a way that is hauntingly reminiscent of american crimes in abu ghraib prison in iraq.

i have seen people claiming a decent amount of “military aged men” simply just being around the hospitals and certain infrastructure in gaza is proof enough that hamas operates there.. very disturbing

Today marks 32 years since the beginning of the Bosnian war.

I’m gonna include links for information and resources in this post.

Thousands of innocent civilians, mostly Bosniaks would be slaughtered, raped and/or interned by Yugoslav army troops, Bosnian Serb fascist militias and foreign volunteer mercenaries (mostly Russian and Greek christofascist types).

This would lead to the Bosnian genocide which consisted of atrocities such as the Srebrenica massacre where 8,372 men and boys would be killed en masse.

Among many other atrocities (too many to list here)

Atrocities which continue to be defended and/or denied by politicians among the Serbian far right, Bosnian Serbs, and far right fascist monsters in Europe, America, Israel and other places.

Including British loyalists in my own country, lionising figures like Miloševic and calling for my own people to be slaughtered like the Bosniaks. (Ironic since the UK they claim loyalty contributed troops and resources to the NATO and UNPROFOR missions against such forces in Yugoslavia at the same time)

Defending or denying such atrocities saying “tHe SErbS wERe ONLy deFEndinG THEir hOMeLanD¡” (if I hear another kebab removal joke I will NOT hesitate to get violent). Lionising the perpetrators in the process. Even to this day.

The war would end in 1995 with the signing of the Dayton Agreement. Which has since led to a lasting but uneasy peace but denialism still continues.

I’m including a few more links in a followup post too.

Reblog the shit out of this.

I bring this up because I study history myself.

I love how, in their attempts to deny the ongoing genocide of palestinians, zionist cunts have gone full "genocide denial" of the highest order to the point that, according to their imaginary rules of what a genocide REALLY is, the bosnian genocide was simply a mere "international incident"

I'd like to hear these zionist pieces of shit announce that to the european parliament and the united nations quite frankly...

Senad Medanović, soldier of the Bosnian Army's 7th Corps, returns to his village Prhovo, Ključ municipality, in September 1995, to discover an execution site and mass grave in the front yard of his family home.

The 53 villagers, including Medanović's closest family members, and additional 15 who were taken to a different execution site, were killed in June 1992 during the assault of the Army of Republika Srpska against the Bosniak population of the Sana Valley in northwestern Bosnia.

“For a long time the landscape of Sarajevo was as pitted with dreams as with shellfire.... It is not that the foreigners didn’t tell the story of Sarajevo. They did, but nothing happened.... ‘Another safari?’ an acquaintance asked me when I arrived in the city in the late winter. ‘What do you hope to see this time, more corpses, more destruction? We should charge you admission’.... A lot of dreams died there in the past year – dreams that the world has a conscience, that Europe is a civilized place, that there is justice in human affairs as well as sorrow. It should be no surprise that the old millenarian dream that knowledge and truth should set us free would die there as well. Reality, it turns out, is better apprehended in the Lion cemetery than in the Palais des Nations in Geneva or the United Nations in New York, much as we might wish it otherwise.” David Rieff, “On Your Knees with the Dying,” in Rabia Ali and Lawrence Lifschultz, eds., Why Bosnia? Writings on the Balkan War (The Pamphleteer’s Press, 1993), 22.
