For those of you that don't know, Srebrenica is comparable with 11 september, only alot more people died.

Rather 1000 anonymous muslims dead then one citizen from the west. Its a sad world.
I don't know what coverage this got in Australia when it happened; I didn't watch the news much then. I can tell you that this story (that the government resigned) made it on the news - second last story before the sport, in other words one step about the feel good bunny story of the night *shrugs*. Guess they don't think we'd be interested. But then they also put shark feeding frenzy stories above news from the Middle east as well, so there you go.[/QUOTE]Ok I don't remember if it was the Washington Post or MSNBC but the last I heard, since Austrailia has enacted its tough firearms laws, their crime rate has increased....whats up with that?
