Letter to Editor Re: Simon Wiesenthal Dead at 96 Sept 20, 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20050920.wwiese0920/BNSto ry/International?page=rss&id=RTGAM.20050920.wwiese0920 The word on dead of Simon Wiesenthal made many justice seeker wonder if there were going to be anyone brave enough, such was Mr. Wiesenthal, to stand against the mighty powers and fight for victims of ethnic intolerance and eradication. One sentence struck me as inappropriate in the published article "Simon Wiesenthal dead at 96, September 20, 2005"..."Even after turning 90, Mr. Wiesenthal continued to remind and to warn. While appalled at atrocities committed by Serbs against ethnic Albanians in Kosovo in the 1990s, he said no one should confuse the tragedy there with the Holocaust," the article says. Much has been written about Serbian "ethnic cleansing", which has been equated with genocide. The Serbs are now the victims of the new global-order propaganda, despite protests by Simon Wiesenthal who insisted that the two conditions were not the same thing. Mainstream media has been eager to portray Serbs as genocidal nation, so that massacres committed by Serbs have been heralded as genocide, but not massacres committed against the Serbs. Ethnic cleansing by the Serbs is genocide, but not that committed by the Bosnian Muslims, Croatians and Albanians against Serbs. Wiesenthal wrote about Serbs being victims of the Holocaust in the Nazi state of Croatia during World War II. Had the time been on his side, he would certainly have plenty of evidence to write about the current genocide of Serbs by Albanians in Kosovo.
