The bruised and bruised woman who was raped said that she "want to die"-but she was still alive in
Sarajevo, who had hosted the Winter Olympics The city is a favorite summer resort for Europeans, and the winter scene of the city is printed on Christmas cards.
The people here used to live exquisitely and with dignity, sitting in the café on the side of the stone road, spending their leisure time, feeding the pigeons in the square of the Great Mosque...
everything happened in an instant-the domino period was Polish unity When the union won the election, it was the Romanian dictator who fell into the blood, and the secretaries of the Union Republics of the Soviet Union became the president of the new country...
A declaration of independence made the party that was only among politicians alike, instantaneously. The fire of war fell on ordinary Bosnians. Perhaps some Serbs and Croats did not agree with this name, but they were still on the land of Bosnia and Herzegovina a day ago, sharing the best bread in town and the same bar in the bar. The love melody played by the band.
What made these classmates, colleagues, and neighbors instantly turn into enemies, and instantly assume the courage and responsibility to deprive each other of their lives. Is it national identity? Is it a different belief?
neither.
It is the inherent instinct of human hatred.
Hatred comes from fear, from fear of the advantages that one is about to lose, from fear of being discriminated against because of one's national identity. Those Serb soldiers who shoot and kill at will are actually the most helpless and fearful. He is so helpless that only by relying on weapons can he retrieve his sense of existence as a human being.
The large-scale, organized rape of women of one race was not staged in Europe even in the cruel World War II, but it existed in the hinterland of Europe for three years before the bell was struck in the 21st century. The Chinese have experienced this kind of animal behavior. In this regard, we would think that this is the bestial nature of the Japanese people. In fact, they forgot that the Eight-Power Allied Forces once concentrated the noble ladies of the Qing Dynasty in a corner of the Forbidden City to commit mass rapes. It's really hard to tell from whom the Japanese learned such bestiality.
Today, nearly 20 years after the signing of the Dayton Agreement, Europe is reluctant to always mention this dirty history not long ago. Because of such brutality, Europeans did not explore the ultimate cause of it. They would rather believe that the scale of rape was less than 50,000, or suspect that it might not have happened in Europe in the last few years of the 20th century.
It is believed that most of the 50,000 Muslim and Croat women who were raped by Serbs in an organized and planned way still live in the land of Bosnia. They are burdened with the most beastly crimes of mankind and continue to live. It is precisely to live that they endured such extreme brutality in the war.
The Bosnians (formerly known as Muslims or Mu) do not have a blood line different from that of the surrounding peoples. Their ancestors were either Serbs or Croats. Those Serbs thought they were raping their enemies’ wives and daughters, but they were actually raping their own humanity. Human tragedies often come from some ridiculous ignorance. Just as the Europeans couldn't figure out the difference between China, Japan and South Korea, they could only limit the crimes committed by the Japanese against China to a civil war between two groups of people in the Far East.
Seventeen years after the end of the civil war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Karadzic and Mladic, the commanders of the massacre and rape, have been tried in The Hague. Those who were slaughtered are commemorated every year. And those women who have been raped may have to face the soldiers who had raped them on the road. Under the peaceful sky, they continue to suffer from the torment of their hearts, and the hatred, I believe, is still deeply rooted in the hearts of every Bosniac. Just to live, they can bear the insult and temporarily put away the hatred.
Thinking about this, it is not difficult to understand why Julia was killed by her alien lover at the end of the film. It is not difficult to understand why the protagonist surrendered to the UN peacekeepers as a war criminal. Because in addition to rape and massacre, they also have love tarnished by the Serb general's father. It is the death of love. It is the moment when peace comes, they can't bear it.
The dead do not need to bear these. It's just that the choice of ending life is too difficult for most people. So, in order to survive, maybe there is nothing you can't bear, except for the insulted love.
