Blame it on the gays. That's the way at least one retired U.S. general sees it. Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander John Sheehan says the fall of Srebrenica in 1995 was partly due to gays in the ranks of the Dutch military, which was tasked with guarding the so-called 'safe haven.' Sheehan wasn't gabbing to close friends in some dank drinking hole after whiskey unlocked his lips. Sheehan was speaking under oath before a dour Congressional committee. The Dutch, gay and other sundry groups were left mouths agape, reacting with outrage. Beyond that, however, the scandal opens a tiny window to again ask what really happened at Srebrenica some fifteen years ago. The author, Diana Johnstone, tells the Informant the Dutch were in a no-win situation.
