His interest in helping poorer nations succeed economically seems to be sincere; and at any rate, it can't hurt to have a big name associated with your organization.Kirk Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06879908614214050994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23301331.post-20014592653936119492008-10-06T01:38:00.000-04:002008-10-06T01:38:00.000-04:00Supported by Paul Wolfowitz?

They have been neglected for a long time.<BR/><BR/>Have you noticed that women of Srebrenica are almost completely ignored in the media? <BR/>Just because they are women, it doesn't mean they haven't suffered. In fact, they <BR/>suffered more than those who were killed, because it is worse to have constant trauma <BR/>than to die instantly. <BR/><BR/>Genocide happened, but where do the women fit in this tragedy? While ethnic cleansing alone does not equal genocide, it is a fact that deportations of <BR/>thousands of women occured during genocide. These deportations were INTEGRAL ELEMENT of what <BR/>defines genocide, because there would be no more children (men killed, women deported). <BR/><BR/>So when reputable media talks about Srebrenica genocide, they mention 8,000 dead, period. But that's not enough. What about women? Why not mention that 20,000 women were forcefully deported? Why not? <BR/><BR/>The ICTY found that, "The decision not to kill the women or children may be explained by the Bosnian Serbs’ sensitivity to public opinion. In contrast to the killing of the captured military men, such an action could not easily be kept secret, or disguised as a military operation, and so carried an increased risk of attracting international censure."<BR/><BR/>http://srebrenica-genocide.blogspot.com/2008/08/can-genocide-be-committed-by-letting.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
