The VIDEO
Well, now there's proof, everyone says.
My favorite quotes:
From the NYT--"While the number of those killed represents a tiny proportion of those who died in July 1995, the video is being seen as irrefutable evidence that Serbia's police forces, and not just Bosnian Serb forces, took part in the massacre, evidence that challenges the commonly held view among Serbs that the atrocity never took place." http://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/03/international/europe/03serbia.html?ei=5070&en=454127ea6604a22e&ex=1118462400&emc=eta1&pagewanted=print
Did anyone really doubt that there were bodies buried? Nobody I know did--but I don't know everyone. Maybe the problem was the way in which only certain bodies rated attention.
From China Daily--"It's difficult to say what is more defeating — the horrific images of the killings or this country's 10-year refusal to face the bloody quagmire of past crimes," said Belgrade professor and women's rights activist Vesna Rakic-Vodinelic.

Before there was Iraq II (its own little piece of history), there were the conflicts in the countries of the "ex-Yugoslavia." Now Kosovo is exploding again, and it seems as if all the media and the pundits can do is rehash the old stories while new bodies pile up. Here is a place where we will attempt to give you a sense of the bigger picture.
