"Complicity with Evil": The United Nations in the Age of Modern Genocide by Adam Lebor
English | 4 Oct. 2006 | ISBN: 0300111711 | 349 Pages | PDF | 11 MB

From the killing fields of Rwanda and Srebrenica a decade ago to those of Darfur today, the United Nations has repeatedly failed to confront genocide. This is evinced, LeBor maintains, in a May 1995 document from Yasushi Akashi, the most senior UN official in the field during the Yugoslav wars, in which he refused to authorize air strikes against the Serbs for fear they would 'weaken' Milosevic.
