Oliver Kamm in The Times.
CONFUSION REIGNS in Serbia. There are claims, and counterclaims, that
General Ratko Mladic, the former commander of Bosnian Serb forces, is
negotiating his surrender. Whatever the truth, the protracted character
of the hunt for Mladic demeans his victims and discredits Western
policymakers.
Mladic is under indictment by a UN war crimes tribunal for
genocide. The charge sheet refers to the siege of Sarajevo and the
massacre at Srebrenica, to whose victims he had promised sanctuary. Yet
Mladic has never wanted for deferential treatment.
Or at his blog. Now I’m not in any way an expert on Balkan affairs so I’ll not comment on the substance of what either side is saying in this matter but Oliver, this really is an attempt to simply make Neil "I welcome spambots" Clark’s head explode, isn’t it? Much more of this and Zsuzsanna will be cleaning the grey matter off the ceilings.
