Srebrenica victims buried
Articles
I thought this excerpt was interesting:
For the first time since the 1995 atrocity, when Bosnian Serb forces
slaughtered 8,000 Muslims, the ceremony takes place in an atmosphere of raised
hopes that justice will be done and those responsible for the killings will
finally be prosecuted.
One can only hope.

Reaffirmation of genocide
As the President noted reading the verdict summary:
Judge Higgins said: “The acts committed at Srebrenica . . . were committed with the specific intent to destroy in part the group of the Muslims of Bosnia-Herzegovina as such, and accordingly. . . these were acts of genocide committed by Bosnian Serb forces. The court has found that [Serbia] could, and should, have acted to prevent the genocide, but did not.”
Unfortunately, Mr. Dodik has apparently failed to recieve a copy of the ICJ's verdict, or of the ICTYs verdicts as well, as he apparently still believes that genocide did not occur at Srebrenica.

New: Srebrenica Report
Voorhoeve, minister at the time of the fall, said Friday on radioprogramme Argos that the sole responsibility for the massacre lay withthe Bosnian-Serbian army leader Mladic and his people. But from the USside, there was no willingness to defend the enclave with air support,and this policy was supported by the British and French, he stressed.http://listserv.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0702&L=justwatch-l&D=1&O=D&P=55417
