      Posted by srebrenicagenocideinfo

      Now Amanpour She reminds viewers that the slaughter in Bosnia happened in full view of the world, captured on 24-hour television news. Ms. Amanpour describes the efforts of Richard Holbrooke, a private citizen who would later become one of President Bill Clinton's most influential advisors; Mr. Holbrooke tried to persuade the Clinton administration to use military force to stop the principal aggressors, the Bosnian Serbs.

    Christiane Amanpour: Srebrenica Genocide is a Collective Failure

    Speaking to the Armenian Reporter, Ms. Amanpour said, "When I ask former U.S. officials who were in national security or the State Department during the Clinton administration – in which genocide happened in Bosnia and in Rwanda – I ask them why was there this collective failure to act, and some of them said to me, ‘Look, we need our public behind us. This is something very difficult for us to intervene when our national security is not directly threatened. We need our public behind us.’"

    She said her purpose was to raise awareness of international affairs among Americans, the citizens of the most powerful nation on earth.

    During an international news conference in 1994, Ms. Amanpour challenged Mr. Clinton: "Do you not think that the constant flip-flops of your administration on the issue of Bosnia set a very dangerous precedent?"
