"Another case in point was the late Dr. Barend Cohen, also a Dutch toxicologist, who became very heavily involved with the Albanian cause in Kosovo. Before his death last year, Cohen travelled frequently to Kosovo and addressed numerous events with other politically-motivated people on issues like civil society and human rights. Whether he was malicious, I cannot say, but I think he definitely got involved rather too deeply in something he did not understand: his web site on human rights abuses in Kosovo was linked, at one or two removes, to web pages on which hard-core drug enthusiasts wrote about their ‘trips’ after taking various combinations of synthetic narcotics. Readers of this column will not be surprised to know that Cohen and Uges—the man who has just accused Milosevic of worsening his own health—were close colleagues who had known each other for twenty years, for instance speaking together at a conference on forensic medicine and human rights in 2003."
