A day of commemorative events is organized at Vanier College, with the support of the Centre for Research on Globalization, ten years after the start of the 78-day bombing campaign in Serbia which killed thousands of civilians.
This event will draw attention to media disinformation, the nature of war crimes, and the spirit and letter of international law in an effort to remember, to educate and to inspire us in our collective effort against the injustice of war. It will mirror similar events happening worldwide on the same date.
Central to the discussion will be the legal and moral precedent set for further 'humanitarian' bombings in Afghanistan and Iraq.
