The Moscow show trials of the 1930s were entirely different in character from the ICTY. Flawed as it is, the ICTY has tried Serbs, Croats, and Kosovars; there has been independent defenses, and impartial judges. I don't like the European model of trials as a whole but the quality of the ICTY is markedly different than the show trials.
I see complaints that the ICTY doesn't punish Bosnians and Croats enough; then I see arguments that they aren't valid trials at all. You can't have it both ways.
In the eyes of God, we're all guilty. This is why Christ came to Earth, to live a sinless life and die for our sins. Human justice has always been flawed, I fear. But at least someone is trying to be just in this case.

ICTY is an evil mockery of justice where the defendants die if their defense is too successful. BTW, there is no such beings as "Kosovars", Kosovo is inhabited by Serbs (the natives) and Albanians and the name means in Serbian the Place of Black Birds.
