Mixed feelings about this one. Maass, an American journalist, is anything but unbiased in his presentation, and many of his analogies are flawed and contradictory. But, through coverage of the Bosnian War and the parallels to some of the political propaganda in the US right now was downright chilling.

Written in 2008 by an American journalist. This gave me the chills when I read it.

Pruzy “In a similar situation, so might we”. That‘s a very ominous line... 7y

We live a block away from an Islamic Community Center so we're dropping this off tonight to spread some sunshine in a dark world right now. ☪️💛💛

Much love to everyone after yet another unrelenting difficult news day. Take care of each other and reach out to your community. If anyone's interested I have the address of the mosque affected by the shooting last night if you want to send kind words. 💐

And the last Bosnian War memoir for #recommendsday
Another war correspondent's memoir, expect he's an American, so there's some more insight into how the US dealt with (or more often ignored) the conflict.

Especially after Trump's speech last night and David Duke praising it, I think it's important we all brush up on our history of the Bosnian War
