Mais la pédagogie contre le négationnisme ne passe pas par la libre disposition des textes
négationnistes.
Rw: Une compréhension solide, durable ne passe-t-elle pas par toutes les étapes y compris les
doutes, les recherches personnelles
Gk: Je ne suis pas d'accord avec vous. Il n'est pas nécessaire de douter de la réalité de la bataille
de Verdun pour arriver à la conviction que la bataille de Verdun a bien eu lieu. Le doute ne saurait
être érigé en instrument systématique de connaissance, surtout lorsque ce doute est
consubstantiellement porteur d'un discours de haine et d'exclusion comme c'est le cas du
négationnisme. [Il faut donc faisre fusiller d'urgence ce type louche qui s'appelle René
Descartes. ]
Qu'est-ce qui vous garanti[t] que le sceptique ne va pas basculer Serge Thion, intelligence
pointue, sociologue averti des société[s] de la péninsule indochinoise *a* basculé.
De plus, il n'est pas possible de faire abstraction du fait que le négationnisme est un discours
antisémite. Il est hors de question, à mes yeux, de laisser un discours antisémite s'épanouir librement.
Il me semble que cette constatation là impose à elle seule la nécessité du principe de la loi
Gayssot. Très cordialement,

COMMENT ILS NOUS ONT BOURRÉ LE MOU SUR LA BOSNIE
Atrocity, memory, photography: imaging the concentration camps of
Bosnia - the case of ITN versus Living Marxism
Part 2
Introduction
David Campbell
The photograph of prisoners especially the emaciated Fikret Ali behind barbed wire at the
Trnopolje camp, in the Prijedor region of Bosnia, became one of the iconic images of the Bosnian war
[Figure 1]. The photograph was taken from the August 1992 news reports of Britain’s Independent
Television News (ITN) journalists Penny Marshall and Ian Williams that covered both Omarska and
Trnopolje. The photograph attracted considerable media attention and provoked much political
response because of the way it evidenced the Bosnian Serb authorities’ ethnic cleansing strategy that
lay at the heart of the war.
The image of Ali also drew the ire of those who saw it as an example of the demonistation of the
entire Serbian people by the western media, for the purposes of making US military intervention
necessary and inevitable. At the forefront of this attack was an article written by Thomas Deichmann,
“The Picture that Fooled the World,” published by LM (formerly Living Marxism, edited by Michael
Hume) in February 1997. Deichmann and Hume, who alleged that Marshall and Williams had
fabricated the images in their reports so as to link the situation in Bosnia with the Nazi Holocaust,
stepped up their criticism of ITN after the news network sued LM for libel. Despite losing the libel trial
in March 2000, supporters of LM and its argument have continued to propagate the view that the ITN
reports were inaccurate [1]
In part I of this article, I analyzed in detail the ITN reports and the LM claims, using the
available ITN videotapes, all LM’s articles and arguments, and the full transcript of the libel trial. [2] I
demonstrated how Deichmann and Hume developed their case by focusing on the material specifics of
a fence, and showed how their case, even in its own limited terms, was erroneous and flawed.
Important in this regard was the way Deichmann’s and Hume’s testimony in the libel trial was
markedly different to the account of Trnopolje’s allegedly benign conditions given in the original LM
article.
