Protestno pismo generalnom sekretaru UN-a zbog uvredljivog sviranja genocidne pjesme “Marš na Drinu”

 Vaša ekselencijo,

U ime 350, 000 Američkih Bošnjaka i 50, 000 Kanadskih Bošnjaka, izražavamo naše razočarenje zbog vašeg prisustva na koncertu koji je održan u Ujedinjenim nacijama, a koji je organizovao Vuk Jeremić, Ministar inostranih poslova Republike Srpske. Koncert je bio skandalozno ponižavanje žrtava genocida u Bosni i Hercegovini jer je orkestar svirao  ozloglašenu  i nasilničku srpsku nacionalističku  pjesmu “ Marš na Drunu”.

Genocid, silovanja, ubistva, i etničko čišÄ‡enje nesrpskog stanovništva  u Srebrenici i Žepi, kao i u ostalim djelovima Bosne i Hercegovine,  su izvršavani od strane Srpskih nacionalista  upravo uz tu  pjesmu. Ova fašistička pjesma je korišÄ‡ena u cilju motivisanja i potpaljivanja  mržnje protiv nesrpskog stanovništva,  a navela je na  ubijanje  na hiljade Bošnjaka. Nažalost, ista pjesma je odzvanjala hodnicima Ujedinjenih nacija u New York-u, a članovi  Ujediinjenih nacija su je punog srca podržali.

Imajući u vidu sramotnu ulogu  Ujedinjenih nacija  u izvršenom genocidu od strane Srpskih snaga u gradovima širom Bosne i Hercegovine, strašno je vidjeti da se Ujedinjene nacije koriste za izvoÄ‘enje  pjesme koja je služila kao ratnički poklik  na izvršavanje  ratnih zločina i genocida u Bosni i Hercegovini.

Gospodine  Sekretare, apelujemo na vas i Ujedninjene nacije da izdate javno izvinjenje svim žrtvama Bosne i Hercegovine koje su počinjene od stane Srpskih nacionalista

Takođe prozivamo Stalnu predstavnicu Bosne i Hercegovine u Ujedinjenim nacijama, Nj.E. ambasadorku Mirsadu Čolaković, da javno protestuje protiv ovog sramnog čina koji se dogodio u U.N..

Sa poštovanjem,

Protest Letter to Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary General

H.E. Ban Ki-moon
Secretary General
United Nations
1 United Nations Plaza
New York, NY 10017

Your Excellency,

On behalf of 350,000 Bosnian Americans, and 50,000 Bosnian Canadians we would like to express our disappointment at your attendance of the concert held at the United Nations that was organized by Vuk Jeremic, Foreign Affairs Minister of the Republic of Serbia. The concert was a scandalous insult to the victims of genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) because the orchestra played the infamous and offensive Serb nationalist song “March on the River Drina”.

The genocide that occurred in Srebrenica and Zepa, and other parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was conducted by Serbian aggressors while blasting this song as they raped, murdered, and ethnically cleansed the non-Serb population. This particular fascist song is used to inspire ethnic and nationalist hatred against everything non-Serb and was used as a tool to inspire the murder of thousands of non-Serb civilians at the hand of Serbian nationalists. It is deplorable that the same song echoed last night at the United Nations with the wholehearted support of the UN.

Because of the shameful role of the United Nations in the genocide committed by Serb forces in cities across Bosnia and Herzegovina, it is dreadful to see the United Nations Hall be used for a performance of a warmongering song under which the war crimes and genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina have been committed.

Mr. Secretary, we urge you and the United Nations to issue a public apology to all the victims of war crimes in BiH committed in the name of Serbian nationalism.

We also call upon the Permanent Representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina at the United Nations, H.E. Ms. Mirsada Colakovic, copied on this letter, to issue an official protest to the U.N. for this shameful act.

Sincerely,

Haris Alibasic, MPA, President
