They stood and watched the slaughter for unarmed Muslim women/men and kids, they were civilians, world didn't say anything, dutch troops stood and watched than they say why muslims are raising arms and fighting against tyranny and occupations. SHAME ON YOU EUROPE AND US. PLEASE READ THE STORY BELOW.
It was one of the most shameful episodes in the history of military peacekeeping. As Dutch troops stood by, Bosnian Serbs overran the "safe" United Nations enclave of Srebrenica in 1995 and massacred some 8,000 Muslim men and boys. Enquiries exposed a litany of leadership failures but one of the problems, according to a US general, was that openly gay soldiers were serving in the Dutch military. The comments by General John Sheehan, a former Nato commander, sparked fury in the Netherlands yesterday. The Srebrenica massacre, the worst since the Second World War, was blamed on a string of blunders, inaction and leadership failures. UN officials refused to sanction air strikes and diplomats dithered about what action to take while cold-blooded mass executions went on for weeks, littering the countryside with mass graves. A war crimes judge later described the killings as "scenes from hell, written on the darkest pages of human history". he chairman of the US committee was critical of Thursday's testimony. Senator Carl Levin told Gen Sheehan he agreed that the Dutch had failed as "peace enforcers" but added: "What the heck that has to do with the issue before us is what mystifies me."
