I'm very grateful to the Swedish newspaper @dagensnyheter for translating and publishing my latest article about the Nobel Prize for Literature being awarded to Peter Handke. The DN headline is "Peter Maass: The Art of Obscuring Genocide." dn.se/kultur-noje/pe…
@dagensnyheter Two weeks ago, @dagensnyheter published my first story on the Handke controversy, with the headline, "Let Me Tell You About the Genocide in Bosnia, Peter Handke." dn.se/kultur-noje/pe…
@dagensnyheter These stories were first published in @theintercept, of course. In the first one, I wrote that "it’s dumbfounding that the Nobel Committee would seize this moment to honor an Austrian writer who defends these war criminals and dissembles on their behalf." theintercept.com/2019/10/10/con…
@dagensnyheter @theintercept My second story, published a few days ago, explored how Handke denies the Serb genocide in Bosnia by casting an accumulation of unfounded doubts on what happened. It's an insidiously effective tactic of genocide denial. theintercept.com/2019/10/26/nob…
@dagensnyheter @theintercept Between those stories, I wrote a thread on Twitter that identified the falsehoods and deceptions in Peter Handke's most well-known book on the Bosnia war. The thread is a point-by-point examination of what Handke wrote and how it's factually incorrect.
@dagensnyheter @theintercept My latest story includes this insight from professor Edin Hajdarpasic: "Surprising few people understand what genocide denial is, and what different forms it can take in the ultimate service of denial...Handke knows not to call Srebrenica or the entire siege of Sarajevo a lie."
