I remember in 2008 watching the commemoration and burials at Potocari when I was at Club Easynet, an Internet cafe in Bašćaršija. I remember the woman who sat next to me crying. I cried myself.

I think of the people I knew and met who were survivors of Srebenica and the Siege of Sarajevo. I pray for them and the ones killed so coldly.

The awful truth is it could happen anywhere. We forget that at our peril.


Comments:
Thank you for that reminder.
 
I feel my own country is at risk of some kind of unrest. The whole budget thing is outright scary.
