Srebrenica massacre memorial to point finger at UN (AP)

July 10th, 2010

In this Wednesday, June 30, 2010 photo, a Bosnian activist displays shoes collected to make 'The Pillar of Shame', German activist's Phillip Ruch's monument to Srebrenica, in Sarajevo. A huge jumble of worn shoes, more than 16,000 of them, each pair representing a victim of Europe's worst massacre since World War II, will spell out 'U.N.' in gigantic letters. The 'Pillar of Shame' is to be raised in the hills above the Bosnian town of Srebrenica with a controversial goal: singling out the United Nations and <b>international</b> leaders as the ones most responsible for failing to prevent the mass killings.
