The Debate

 

Yesteryear

 

 

 

 

Today

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Defense Ministry released an e-mail Tuesday from Sheehan, a former NATO commander who retired from the military in 1997, to retired Dutch Gen. Henk van den Breemen saying he is sorry for his statements to the Senate Armed Services Committee on March 18.

 

In the e-mail, Sheehan says the 1995 murder of some 8,000 Muslim men in Bosnia's Srebrenica enclave "was in no way the fault of individual soldiers."

The only problem I see with this so far, is you have wikipedia as a source - doesn't make quality basis for arguments. Try finding out where wikipedia found THEIR information and list that instead! :)

I understand you're comment, but I don't necessarily always agree. Pop culture and recent events can be dicey for sure. However, historical articles are normally heavily footnoted on the Wikipedia page itself. The information on the Wikipedia page is often aggregated and often difficult to pull an accurate footnote. I'm comfortable citing Wikipedia if the page is properly footnoted and I've verified the links or sources of those footnotes. The Wikipedia staff often polices such articles and will even flag it for further citation if they think it needs it. Encyclopedias, magazine articles, and books that cite other sources with footnotes are the same (but even more difficult to verify than Wikipedia since they're not online). I don't necessarily give more credence to information just because it's been printed to paper. The Wikipedia article I used is thoroughly cited (14 footnotes). I trust the information. My audience can choose to discredit it, but if they check the footnote, I think they'll see the information is credible. .... that said, I appreciate the feedback and I understand your intent is to ensure my sources are strong to strengthen my arguments. Thanks :-)
