Nineteen years after; is this a "moderate" Muslim?

[davidbfpo]

Last week we briefly considered what a "moderate" Muslim was, on the current Iraq thread (Posts 506, 509, 512 & 515). I fully recognise anti-jiahdists voices seldom get MSM coverage, those that do are often labelled by their enemies as "sell outs" etc.

Today I was reminded is the Srebrenica massacre happened in Bosnia, when Serbian forces captured a UN 'safe area'; a matter debated elsewhere on SWC IIRC, mainly in 2013 on:http://council.smallwarsjournal.com/...ad.php?t=18969

As the Srebrenica Memorial Day anniversary on the 11th of July approaches its 18th year, we are once again reminded of the lengths that man could potentially go to when immersed in a state of fear, hatred and division. The Memorial Day puts to rest any naivety that the lessons of the past have not only been learned, but well and truly headed. Not only are human beings chronically capable of committing the most repugnant of acts against fellow human beings, regardless of the advancement of time, the catalysts for these crimes are invariably similar whatever the different and unique circumstances of each.
The Srebrenica Memorial Day provides a timely reminder to us all of the challenges that can only be met in a sense of togetherness and community.

The Cordoba Foundation has been working tirelessly to raise awareness of the threat man poses against his fellow man, should particular conditions become established on the ground. Whether Srebrenica, Auswitz, Rwanda, Gaza, Kashmir, Myanmar or Somalia, and whether in the last century, this or the one coming, injustice establishes fear which breads suspicion and ultimately hatred. From there, the move on to violence is neither a difficult nor inconceivable step to undertake. Our objective is to work in common collaboration to remove the very initial elements on that tragic path, and to counter the root causes for clashes based on false and misguided understanding and implementation of the concepts of ‘self’ and ‘the other’.

There's also a link to a sermon by the Grand Mufti of Bosnia-Herzogovina:http://www.thecordobafoundation.com/...mon%202014.pdf

This I thought was powerful:

I call upon the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina to reject the glorification of criminals and denial of crimes. That will bring them neither good nor fortune.

I am aware the Cordoba Foundation is regarded by many as a Muslim Brotherhood affiliated group.
