Actually, they will probably by tried, convicted, and sentenced in the time it takes to go through pre-trial discovery and jury selection here in the States. And I doubt Milosevic was prosecuted under Dutch law.
The problem is they were planning on taking lives and/or destroying property.
In the Netherlands, that won't get you much of a sentence from a liberal judge {they're ALL liberal}
Committing a murder is only worth about a year and a half at most. Ask Theo van Gogh's {muslim} murderer. He'll be out fairly soon...of course he did just go in, not too long ago!
If you make sure to maim a person while murdering them, you will get sentenced to a year or less in a clinic, because obviously, you must be sick!
To REALLY get slapped down with a stiff penalty - say 10 or 12 years, you need to rob a bank, or a market. Not for millions, just for a few thousand. Boldness is rewarded, I guess.
Human life has lost its value - but the Euro still gets people's attention around these parts.
