THE FALSE GENOCIDE IN SREBRENICA HIDES THE REAL ONE IN GAZA

Column, 23.05.2024.

You, who built death camps and gas chambers, are now speaking of justice? In Donja Gradina, there was even an experimental soap factory made from camp inmates, from human flesh - now that is real genocide. Shame on you!

Where are you now, vultures? Why are you silent? While Palestinian children are dying, you deceive the world at the United Nations by claiming that a "genocide" occurred in Srebrenica. The claim that 8,000 people were killed in Srebrenica is a monstrous lie. Prove it. If it is true, we Serbs, "the most genocidal nation in the world," demand that you finally show the world those 8,000 human skulls so we can count them. What happened in Srebrenica is a crime, and it should be condemned, but it has nothing to do with genocidal intent. Only prisoners were executed, about 500 converted Serbs and terrorists, not civilians. What we see today in Gaza is a real genocide: 15,000 dead innocent children! 35,000 killed people. In Jasenovac, 700,000 Serbs, Jews, and Roma were killed - civilians, mothers, and children. In Donja Gradina, there was an experimental soap factory made from camp inmates, from human flesh - now that is real genocide. Shame on you! Shame on every UN member that voted for the monstrous Srebrenica Resolution without a shred of evidence that genocide occurred there.

You, inheritors of Nazi evil, have no right to judge others. Your history is written in the blood of millions of innocent people. How dare you lecture us on human rights and justice? Before accusing others, look in the mirror of your own past. Every time you raise a finger in condemnation, you remind us of your own shame. You, who built death camps and gas chambers, now speak of justice? Your insistence on moral superiority is hypocritical and unfounded. Instead of pointing fingers, you should bow before the victims of your ancestors and learn from their suffering. Your moral duty is to be ambassadors of peace and justice, not liars and judges.

If you do not respect the million Serbian victims, let's talk about the Palestinians. The tragedy unfolding in Gaza is not just a humanitarian crisis; it is the moral downfall of this world. Constant bombardment, blockade, and systematic deprivation of basic human rights point to a calculated campaign of extermination. Hospitals have become morgues, schools have been reduced to ruins, and children's playgrounds have turned into graveyards. It is about the methodical destruction of a people. The intent to destroy Palestinian identity and existence is evident - now that is real genocide.

The oppressors of Gaza are protected by powerful guardians whose strategic interests outweigh principles of justice and humanity. They dehumanize the victims and justify their suffering as a necessary evil.

The international community is silent, shame on them! There is no collective conscience. It reflects a world where the powerful dictate lies and the powerless are left to disappear in silence. The media also play a complicit role, often portraying the conflict in Gaza through a distorted lens that emphasizes a false equivalence between oppressors and victims.

It is essential to stress that silence in the face of genocide is complicity. The ongoing genocide in Gaza demands not only condemnation but a coordinated effort to stop the machinery of death. The world needs to rise above political alliances and recognize the inherent humanity of every Palestinian child, every destroyed family, and every shattered community.

History will judge us by how we respond to the cries from Gaza. Today's global silence on the genocide in Gaza and the vote to adopt the monstrous resolution on Srebrenica will resonate as a profound shame in the annals of human rights. It is not enough to remember past crimes; we must act to prevent those unfolding before our eyes. Failing to do so means standing on the wrong side of history, complicit in the most heinous crimes.

The victims of Gaza do not seek pity but justice. They do not ask for words of comfort but concrete steps towards peace and freedom. It is up to us to show courage and determination, to stand with those who suffer, and to fight for a just world. Every unfulfilled obligation to them is a betrayal of our own humanity.

Where are the Arab countries to help their Palestinian brothers? All watch the slaughter and remain silent. Why? Their silence is deafening and painful. Is their wealth more valuable than human lives, than the suffering of their brothers?
Each of these countries has the power and capability to do something. Their economic, military, and political strength can be used for pressure, for humanitarian aid, for diplomatic action. Everyone is watching, and everyone is silent.

Where are Russia and China to help? The two great powers, with immense influence on the global stage, also remain astonishingly silent. Known for their strength and ability to influence international relations, why do they not use that power to help stop the bloodshed? Their silence is contrary to their proclaimed values and goals. Russia and China, as permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, have not only the ability but the responsibility to act in the interest of international peace and security. Their inactivity is also a matter of their moral and political responsibility. Are economic interests, geopolitical balance, or strategic alliances more important than human lives?

Everyone is silent about the genocide in Gaza, but they torment the Serbs. - It is easiest to torment the weak, without shame, without guilt. No nation in the world has suffered like the Serbs. Let me remind you that Serbs in the Yellow House had their organs removed alive and sold abroad, over 2,000 missing persons in Kosovo and Metohija. The flayed skin of Serbian children flew around the world!
