moderator's note: removal of tiresome blowhard: msg#00142politics.marxism.analysis
I have removed the tedious halfwit "Aaron" from the list. Like I said, it's not acceptable to engage in a "debate" about whether there was a massacre at Srebrenica. I am not about to accept any posting of the rants of Jared Israel on this list, an obscure character who has as much credibility on the Balkans as the Institute for Historical Review or Robert Faurisson have on the Nazi gas chambers. Whether we want to discuss the political implications of the incontrovertible fact of a massacre at Srebrenica is another story. I am personally irritated by the red herring that this issue became when "Aaron" entered the discussion. Legitimate issues include Milosevic's "command responsibility"; the fact that Milosevic's trial is occurring in the Netherlands where the cabinet has resigned over charges of culpability in the Netherlands -- and, my own favorite point, that the recent row about the massacre in the Netherlands is occurring at the same time as the emergence of more and more details about the massacre at Jenin. There are political points to be made here. Debating whether the massacre "ever really happened," however, is the height of stupidity, and not worth our time (nor worth the entry into the moral and ethical pigsty that it involves).
