And I do what I can, as here, to warn against equivocations & denialism about these horrific crimes. I’m espec disturbed when I hear the preposterous calumny that Western Muslim populations - like Bosnia’s - are a conduit for jihadism. It’s utterly false. https://t.co/5qAT3vLQR1
The war was not explosion of intractable ancient hatreds. It was systematic campaign of genocidal aggression against a constitutional, multiethnic state, and western policy stood aside rather than prevented it. I wrote of this failure on 20th anniversary. https://t.co/yHTdv68X7L
