I agree with your post, and it would apply to Pinochet as well.

The Brits probably slow-poisoned Napoleon when he was in custody. What do you think of that straddling of the line? (In Napoleon's case, he had already escaped once.)

Pinochet voluntarily gave up power. Slobo was overthrown by his own people.

People who disappeared under Pinochet deserved to disappear lest there be any resurgence of Allendeism. We knew Pinochet. He was a friend of the US. Milosevic is no Pinochet.

For Milosevic, up against the wall!

We should never, however, cooperate with this international criminal court. Even Milosevic deserves a better fate than that. The Romanian dictator Ceaucescu (sp.?) and wife were at least afforded the dignity of being summarily shot to death by the people upon their overthrow. Given their history, it was a touching and sentimental moment as the shots rang out.
