Introduction by Miguel Àngel Moratinos:
This war journal is Michele Capasso’s personal testimony, recounting his experience in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1964 to the present day. It tells the story of extraordinary human experiences, during a historic period when the Mediterranean – at the turn of the second millennium – assumed strategic importance for dialogue and peace. Bosnia and Herzegovina became the symbol of this struggle, a nation torn by conflict embodied in the cities of Sarajevo and Srebrenica, the latter scarred by the second genocide of the 20th century, on 11 July 1995.
Fratricidal war, ethnic cleansing, the destruction of cities and memory, genocide: Michele Capasso took a stand against the tragedy unfolding in Bosnia and Herzegovina and, more broadly, in the former Yugoslavia and the Balkans.
He devoted all his personal resources to this cause, urging people not to lose hope. The stories in this book bear testimony
to that commitment, each one supported by documents and images.
The essence of the narrative is to reveal the remarkable resilience of human beings in facing the pain and devastation brought by war and hatred, enduring hardship without ever losing faith in tomorrow.
The Mothers programme of the United States of the World, which seeks to give voice to the Mothers of war victims, of children who died of hunger, of the victims of organized crime and mafia, of women killed by gender violence, and of all victims of brutality in a world afflicted by an immense famine of love and a suicidal selfishness.
