The Bosnian genocide was the killing of thousands of ethnic Bosniaks[5] in the year 1995 during the Bosnian War. The largest killing happened in the village of Srebrenica, in what is called the Srebrenica massacre.[6][7] Over 8,000 were killed in Srebrenica.[6][7]
Bosnian War[change]
The Bosnian War (1992 ‒ 1995) saw the government of Bosnia and Herzegovina fighting Croatia and Serbia, then part of Yugoslavia. The United Nations sought to protect Bosnia and created safe zones.[6][7]
Srebrenica massacre[change]
The Srebrenica massacre happened when the Serbian Army invaded the Bosnian village, began raping women and forcing men into the forests. The men were then hunted down by Serbian soldiers.[6][7]
Denial[change]
Serbia[change]
In Serbia, many have said that the genocide was not a genocide. But, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) says that the Bosnian Genocide occurred and was a genocide.[8]
Western countries[change]
In Western countries, Bosnian genocide denial is common among many left-wing "anti-imperialist" intellectuals.[9][10] They often accuse the NATO of "inventing" the Bosnian genocide to justify the bombing and "destruction" of Yugoslavia,[9][10] or blame the Bosnian genocide victims for their own suffering[9][10] just as modern antisemites do to Jews.[11] The leading Bosnian genocide deniers include but not limited to Michael Parenti, Edward S. Herman, David Peterson, Jared Israel, Tariq Ali, Mick Hume and Diana Johnstone,[9][10] most of whom have tremendous influence in Western academia.[9][10]
