Today is the 15th anniversary of the genocide in Srebrenica, Bosnia, where more than 8000 Muslim male civilians were killed and their bodies buried in mass graves scattered all over the region. Slobodan Milosevic, the president of Serbia at the time of the killing, died in the Hague in 2006, before any verdict was reached in his trial. The UN Dutch troops present in the enclave of Srebrenica at the time, in order to protect the civilians, did not face any charges for failing in their duty. Radovan Karadzic, the Bosnian Serb leader responsible of designing this crime is currently on trial in The Hague, at the International War Crime Tribunal. General Ratko Mladic, whose troops carried out the massacre under his orders, is still at large.
In the year 2007, Serbia proper was found guilty of failing to prevent the genocide, but not for actually committing it. Many of the large number of people and troops involved in liquidating the Srebrenica prisoners never appeared before any court. Others received very mild sentences for smaller misdeeds, such as the six members of the paramilitary troops “Scorpions.” More

Zasto volim Italiju?
Iako imaju razjedinjenu neefikasnu levicu, fasistoidnu desnicu i prevremene izbore s obzirom da im je pala vlada po ko zna koji put bezveze…iako imaju Papu , odnosne sve pape ovog sveta usred svoje zemlje, agresivni katolicizam koji im je jedva dozvolio razvod i abortus koji ni sada nisu pesma…iako vole da jedu i piju i pevaju vise nego sto vole da vladaju…juce nas je bilo deset hiljada zena muskaraca i dece na ulicama Torina povodom osmog marta. Jedna od organizatorki, Zena u crnom iz Torina, dan ranije mi je rekla: vec godinama nismo izlazile na trg, ove godine moramo, hoce da nam oduzmu sva tesko stecena zenska ljudska prava i to svi zajedno, i levica i desnica. Nadam se da ce da izadje makar hiljadu osoba. Kad je povorka krenula nije delovalo vise od petsto, ( hladno , kisno); kad smo zavrsile sa setnjom dva sata kasnije na trgu Castello, ceo grad je bio blokiran, ali vrlo orgnziovano i mirno ljudima koji su setali pevali skandirali u koloni. Kao nekad u Beogradu jos dok je Beograd bio svet a ne Kosovo je Srbija. More
