Contents Summary
This program focuses on war crimes committed against the Bosnian Muslims. The film begins with a chronology portraying a long history of genocide against the Bosnian Muslims. Many cases of atrocities committed against Bosnian Muslims in this century are mentioned, including the "great Serbian genocide over the Bosnian Muslims in 1918." The program attempts to explain a driving force in the policy of genocide, or "Cetnik ideology," that propagates the "physical extermination of Bosnian Muslims." Graphic images are shown of those murdered and massacred persons, as well as footage of the destruction of Bosnian towns. Networks such as HTV, SKY News, TV NS and TV BiH are featured, including archival stills and footage.
