Ivanisevic documents his number in “<strong>The</strong> Book of the Dead Serbs of <strong>Srebrenica</strong><br />
and Birac Region, 1992-1995” (pp. 95-169), where he lists by name and by birth<br />
and death dates the 3,287 Serb victims in this region and time span.<br />

11 For but one illustration of this kind of personalized, politically-motivated attack,<br />
with its characteristic lack of resort to evidence, that greets any challenge to the<br />
orthodox point of view that we contest here, we point to a letter by 25 signatories<br />
submitted to <strong>The</strong> Guardian newspaper in December 2005, protesting the<br />
paper’s “correction” of a misleading report of an interview with Noam Chomsky<br />
that <strong>The</strong> Guardian later retracted: See Marko Attila Hoare et al., “Protest to <strong>The</strong><br />
Guardian Over ‘Correction’ to Noam Chomsky Interview,” as posted to Balkan<br />
Insight No. 15 (Balkan Investigative Reporting Network), December 8, 2005,<br />
; see also Marko Attila Hoare,<br />
“<strong>The</strong> Guardian, Noam Chomsky, and the Milosevic Lobby,” as posted to the<br />
website of <strong>The</strong> Henry Jackson Society, February 4, 2006, .<br />
<strong>The</strong> Hoare letter was in turn answered by James Bisset et al., “In response to: Protest<br />
to the Guardian Over ‘Correction’ to Noam Chomsky Interview,” Balkan Investigative<br />
Reporting Network, no date, .<br />
12 “European Parliament resolution of 15 January 2009 on <strong>Srebrenica</strong>” (P6_TA-<br />
PROV(2009)0028), EurLex, January 15, 2009, para. 2, para. B, emphasis added,<br />
. This resolution<br />
not only asserts, based on no known evidence, that “more than” 8,000<br />
men and boys were slaughtered at <strong>Srebrenica</strong>, it even claims “the rape of a large<br />
number of women” (para. D), something that even the standard mainstream accounts<br />
of the July 1995 events have not put forward. Politicization has made it possible<br />
to say anything about the massacre as long as this enlarges its scope of evil.<br />
