>>>>>>>Because their is the presumption of innocence until proven guilty, even if your name is Milosovic or Goering. However, the 161 Serbs found guilty of war crimes by a tribunal in the Hague are no longer presumed innocent. So there is no "thought" or "believed" in their case.<<<<

Again, I am scratching my head. In your own post #50, you cite ""As of March 16, 2006, the ICTY had indicted 161 persons. Only six of these remained "at large". The cases against 85 of the indicted had been concluded: 43 were found guilty, 8 acquitted, 25 had their indictments withdrawn, and six had died - 3 of these in custody, 3 while on parole. Four cases had been sent to national courts for trial. 15 of those convicted had completed their sentences and been released by March 2006."

It seems that you can not differentiate between 161 indicted and 161 convicted. You can not even figure out that 161 indicted Serbs, Croats, Muslims and Albanians does not constitute "161 Serbs found guilty of war crimes"

It only shows that either you are clutching for a straw, perhaps to convince yourself of something you know too well not to be true, or trying to fool us like a kid caught with a hand in a cookie jar.

You're right, 161 were not convicted.

No, I know the difference, but you want to DENY what happened and play semantical games with war crimes. 43 were found guilty.

I'm waiting in suspense to see what sort of fallacy you'll use in your next argument.
