Though Milosevic's conviction was a foregone conclusion (we wouldn't want any more rampaging Muslims than there need to be), he was creaming the Court (the Court and the prosecution are essentially one), such that six months ago prosecutor Geoffrey Nice admitted (transcript) he was no longer sure what, exactly, the case against the former strongman was. Everyone wondered why a trial would be taking four years for someone who was the undisputed "Butcher of Belgrade." The answer is that there's been an unintended benefit to the otherwise bad idea of an international court: the historical record was being set straight.
But look for a renewed wave of propaganda about the alleged "crimes" of Milosevic from the media anyway, now that they are confident the truth will stay buried longer.

Meanwhile, as UN human rights observer Jiri Dienstbier has said, "Kosovo is an infinitely more dangerous place than it was before" the U.S.-led NATO intervention. What we managed to do, if you can imagine, was destabilize the notoriously unstable Balkans.
"Who are those dead people?
- They died of poisoning, they ate poissoness mushroomes
_What about that one with the bullet-hole in his forehead?!
- He wouldn`t eat poisoness mushroomes...
How was it justified?
And we believe that the ridiculous circus in Belgium that was handling this alleged "trial" would have come to the truth because...?
Feckless dunderheads couldn't find their fannies with both hands.
Are you sure about this? Ceku is at the helm of this monstrosity we keep funding, how does that dilute KLA power? Thaci is a war criminal but yet walks free, deemed untouchable by our intelligence service. The KLA is very much in power.
Ceku is smarter than his adversaries. Does that surprise you?
