Based on the primary focus of action, IRGC  is strongly against from any authors and articles that demonize  any nation, including Israel, Serbia and Croatia.

Of Course IRGC is distancing itself  from any anti-Israel articles and authors.

The  International Expert Team of the IRGC are many prominent scholars and academics, including Serbs, Croats, Jewish, from more than 30 countries and more than 50 nationals. Our cooperation with all them is excellent. 

If we really want to prevent future genocides we must do much more than sympathize with the victims. We have to comprehend the psychological depth of the perpetrators of genocide and indifference of genocide observers.  We have to learn what makes some persons, who were once normal, to hate other persons and people to the extent that they want to systematically and methodically eliminate them all! But we also need to learn about those who support genocide against innocent people or observe it from the distance! We need to learn more about them too! We need to learn about genocide not only as of historical facts but also as a means to teach our children about the dangers of human intolerance. We must teach younger generations to appreciate democracy and human rights and encourage them to reject hatred, intolerance and ethnic conflicts so that "never again" is really true, so that neither Auschwitz nor Srebrenica ever happen again!
