Content: A nation that forgets its past has no future.” Since children are our legacy and future, they should thus be targeted most. They need to be educated and raised properly. They should be enlightened and open-minded. Truth and justice should be their only obsession and goal. The truth about Srebrenica – and about the aggression against Bosnia at large – should feature prominently in our history books and history curricula. We must not forget Srebrenica also because doing so will send a wrong signal to the actual and potential bigots, fanatics, criminals, villains and hate-mongers anywhere in the world. That will definitely embolden them to do what they feel bent on doing. They will know that people’s indifference, insensitivity and ignorance will play right into their hands, giving them more leeway to try to manipulate authorities and public opinion and to run away with their crimes. We ought to accept that life, in essence, is a perennial confrontation between good and evil at all levels of existence.
