In late May 1994, the Israeli cabinet issued a statement calling on the international community to "halt the [Rwandan] slaughter" and offering medical and humanitarian assistance. Having "suffered bitterly during the Holocaust," the statement said, "Israel cannot be indifferent as it witnesses the shock of Rwanda." David Makovsky, Reuters, Jerusalem Post, 23 May 1994, 4.

    • As mentioned above, the NATO military intervention of August and September 1995 in Bosnia helped bring the war to a swift end, but the operation was prompted more by strategic concerns than by the genocide, which had already been carried out. When it came to Kosovo, numerous pressure groups and editorialists urged the United States to bomb the Serbs in response to an increase in violence in the province. However, virtually none of these advocates likened Serb abuses in Kosovo to those committed during the Holocaust. After NATO began bombing Serb targets in March 1999, however, the analogy surfaced, as the scenes of a mass Albanian exodus and the harrowing tales of atrocities convinced many that the parallel suddenly applied.

    • For instance, the American Jewish Committee, the American Jewish Congress, and the Anti-Defamation League published a joint "Open Letter to World Leaders" in the New York Times, headlined "Stop the Death Camps." The advertisement declared: "To the blood-chilling names of Auschwitz, Treblinka, and other Nazi death camps there seem now to have been added the names of Omarska and Brcko, where it is reported thousands have been starved, tortured and executed, and cremated as fodder for animals. Is it possible that fifty years after the Holocaust, the nations of the world, including our own, will stand by and do nothing, pretending we are helpless? . . . Every day we delay [action], innocent men, women and children will be slaughtered." New York Times, 5 August 1992, A14.
