Depending on the country, paying like it's 1995 would be the best power move. Here's, dunno, 100 francs? 5 marks?

Oh yes. If you're a Dutch soldier you even get free drinks, and it only costs your honor.

collapsed inline media"Toast of shame" - Mladic and Karreman drinking together

Happy 30th anniversary. Cheers to the Dutch Army.

what am I missing? why is the picture titled the toast of shame?

[–] General_Effort@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

The most striking image yet to emerge from the fall of Srebrenica comes in a BBC film to be screened next week. It shows the indicted Serb war criminal General Radko Mladic presenting the commander of the UN peacekeeping force at Srebrenica, Colonel Ton Karremans of Holland, with gifts wrapped in Christmas paper. Mladic was evidently in a expansive mood and he had good reason to be: at that very moment his troops were preparing to massacre the 4,000 men and boys who the UN had handed over to him.

In the middle is luitenant kolonel Thom Karremans, leader of the Dutchbatt peacekeeping force near Srebrenica, to the left is Ratko Mladic the last of the Serbian forces.

Mladic promised the to let there population of the enclave to go free, and Karremans believed him.

They were slaughtered instead.
