A Witness to Genocide: The 1993 Pulitzer Prize-Winning Dispatches on the "Ethnic Cleansing" of Bosnia

First of all, I'd like to praise Roy Gutman's for being an example of what an honest man should be. This is a book about serbs and their terrifying crimes they've done in Bosnia, before they did the very same to Kosovo, and after they've done the very same in Croatia, and just a bit before that in Slovenia.As a Kosovar, and a serb victim too, the more I learn aboutwhat might have spurred the serbs expose their long hidden cruelfantasies towards Croatians,Bosnians,and Albanians too - the more I get confused. I mean I keep asking myself "Hey, did it really have to come to Bosnia...no less my country Kosovo, afterall we have seen what happened to Croatia. Well, it is more than obvious that they were backed up and it would be most unfair even though everything is fair after all we have been through from their cruel unimaginable crimes - to label a western countryif not all of them - for letting this happen. I mean it is just as if I am a millionaire and in my doorsteps I see a dead-starvedbeggar in my doorstep and not help him. I mean, come on, not thatI would actually give him some food but I'll make him a honoured member of my family...anyways...it's all blood (not water) under the bridge of west's silence. GO WEST!!! Serbs, regarding Bosniaand Croatia will be forever grateful for that silence of yours. I mean how can they not??? But I am so sorry to say that becauseyou know your profession, I mean I am clueless what is it like to be a politician or a diplomat...but yeah anyways...what reallyprovoked tears was the writer's love for humanity and for what is right. He created an honest book even though he lived and considered Serbia as his homeland and he wasn't at all as the corrupted gen.Lewis McKenzie who was paid to be a darkness to the (bosnian) serbs crimes by serbs themselves.I am so happy at the thought that McKenzie can not possibly enjoy the money he got from the serbs because that's the way it works, but the thing I am not sure of is "how can he sleep at night?", is he buying medicines to cure his then corrupted mind and clear his consciousness of what he has done to thousands of children ( I am not mentioning the old people and other hundreds of thousands victims). Goodness me, how safe are we when UN Generals can get in the payroll of the most dreadful criminals. If I was the law,now when the waters have been cleared, general McKenzie, and some others who could have prevented genocides on innocent people (am not mentioning old people and hundreds of thousands civilians) I would all make them next door neighbours to where Milosevic is.At least, it wouldn't be that bad for them at all, because they may have missed him a lot - so it would have been a win-win situation. The justice would have been served and as I said they would have enjoyed being with each other. I wonder,did anyone ever thought about this that a non-serbian might be responsible for its irresponsibalities too??? I don't know, it makes to much sense to me that yes - someone

This book provides excellent examples and background information about the tragedy that has occurred in Bosnia and is continuing in places such as Kosovo. It also pinpoints the cause of this genocide - The Yugoslav government and the Serbs. It is absolutely necessary for anyone interested in current affairs and the conflict in Bosnia.
