Radovan Karadzic is accused of the most heinous crimes against humanity, from the siege of Sarajevo to the Srebrenica massacre.
He is charged with having the blood of 20,000 lives on his hands and of bringing an entire country down by ethnic hatred.
Today relatives of the thousands of victims said they had been waiting for this moment of justice for 13 years.
Instructions for Hoplite: dig hole in sand and insert head.
What about the material in post #48 is too difficult for you to understand?
The inmates were not there of their own free will, they were not able to leave, they were mistreated and some were murdered or raped while they were there.
And I don't recall Japanese American being taken from their camps and massacred, as happened to inmates from Trnopolje at Vlasic Mountain.
But then I wouldn't, because as baleful an episode as our treatment of Japanese Americans was, it just doesn't even remotely compare to what the Serbs perpetrated in Bosnia, and in my experience nobody's ever been stupid enough to try to attempt to equate the two before you.
This may explain the freezer truck mystery.
Its the Croatian version of “The Onion” without the subtle humor.
Kinda like the Superdome during Katrina...
No the verdict was that your favorite magazine, Living Marxism (why are you afraid to write out the full title?) committed libel.
English libel laws are notorious for alowing lies triumph in court.
Notorious among fans of David Irving and Slobodan Milosevic for not defending their heroes' propaganda, perhaps. But certainly not notorious among normal folk.
But it's already too far up his butt to extract and comply, That's what happens when you try to bow toward Mecca and kiss your ass goodbye at the same time.
Normal people do not continue to lie when confronted with hard evidence. Psychopats do.
BBC's Nick Higham reported on the evening of the verdict in ITN case:
That summing up was so one-sided that it made ITN's barrister redundant. It reached its nadir when, having quoted extensively from ITN witnesses,the judge told the jury that he was not going to mention anything that I or Mr Deichmann had said, because we were not at Trnopolje camp in northern Bosnia on August 5, 1992. But if eyewitness accounts cannot be challenged after the event, where does that leave critical journalism?
Advising the jury on damages, the judge said that somebody who lost both arms in an accident might receive compensation of #100,000, so awarding the ITN journalists more than #150,000 each for their hurt feelings would be "excessive". He also said that damages would be aggravated if the defence had strenuously cross-examined the claimants. The more robustly we defended ourselves, the higher price we would have to pay.
You have no clue what you are writing about and attempt to replace it with brazen insults.
Its the same photo of DDD/RK, just “dodged” in PhoSho from different directions and put in mirror view. Viva “yellow” Dalmatia :-).
Your fellow Marxists at Living Marxism admitted in open court that Trnopolje was a concentration camp.
By the way, the comparison to Bergen-Belsen was quite apt: Bergen-Belsen was not a death camp, but a concentration camp. Bergen-Belsen had no gas chambers or mass executions: it was a place where inmates were detained in crowded and unsanitary conditions until they could be transferred to the death camps in the east.
Living Marxism was convicted of libel because they lied.
I have no idea how this is in any way relevant to this discussion.
And Clinton bombed Serbian cities for Islam and he did kill women and children , the commie Clinton.
Clinton bombed Serbia due to a combination of international pressure to act and the ongoiing scandals relating to his impeachment. There were certainly some civilian casualties, but none were inflicted intentionally- the US military, despite your claims to the contrary, tries very hard to avoid civilian casualties, unlike Milosevic's goons.
And Clinton tried to impose government healthcare on the American people - that’s communism.
Again, how is this in any way relevant to this discussion?
ENOUGH WITH YOUR BRAZEN NAZI REVISIONIST PROPAGANDA ! Bergen-Belsen was a concentration camp where Nazis transferred inmates from the East because Soviets liberated camps in Poland and elsewhere.
More than 50 000 people died in Bergen Belsen, including Anne Frank.
No such thing happened in Trnopolje. Your claim that calling Trnopolje Belsen was quite apt only exposes you for what you really are - Nazi revisionist. You deliberatelly falsify the history of WWII in hope no one will notice.
You are on the wrong place, pal.
Lies are always exposed on FR.
This same kind of abuse was being replicated at Trnopolje until ITN broadcast it, shaming the Yugoslav authorities into shutting it down.
All your screaming and yelling cannot erase the facts of history.
They know their history too and realize that the Nazis had a highly articulated system of mass murder with different concentration camps being used for different purposes.
The VRS were only aping them.
It will not erase the facts of history, it will only erase your brazen lies.
Trnopolje was closed in August 1992. Yugoslav authorities had nothing to do with it. Bosnia proclaimed secession from Yugoslavia April 6, 1992. Yugoslav Army left Bosnia May 12 1992. Trnopolje was established and operated by the authorities of Republika Srpska, not by Yugoslav authorities as you fraudulently claim.
Yor claims are made of web of lies.
HRW classifaied Trnopolje as deportation center. Belsen it was not, as you fraudulently claim.
With every attempt, you sink deeper and deeper into the web of lies. That's what liberal/islamofascist propaganda is all about -sling enough mud in hope some will stick.
Hah hah hah!
Do you really expect anyone here to believe that the Republika Srpska was anything other than a Yugoslav puppet government following Belgrade's orders?
We weren't born yesterday.
My advice to wideawake is to never bet on Jihad and never bet on the truthfulness of Muslims. Jihad is eternal no matter how many Radovan Karadzic killed. If they say he killed 20,000 Muslims, he really killed 3,000
3,000 is nothing compared to Muslim massacres such as the 80 million Hindus killed over 3 centuries by Muslim barbarians or the 2 million Christian Armenians Greeks Syrians killed by the Turks circa 1920
Never bet on Jihad. Remember that if you remember nothing else
What I do not discount are the findings of our own troops and our UK allies in terms of war crimes in Bosnia.
