He presided over establishment of two notorious detention centers where thousands of Bosnian Muslims and Croats were held captive until international exposure forced the Serbs to close them. Stakic's indictment listed specific incidents of murder and brutality, such as the killing of 120 people taken in two buses from the Keraterm and Omarska camps in August 1992, the month the camps were closed
By conservative estimate, more than 20,000 people were deported from the Prijedor region as part of a policy of ethnic cleansing, the judge said.
Krstic was sentenced to 46 years in prison for his role in the July 1995 killings of at least 7,500 Bosnian Muslims in the enclave of Srebrenica, then a U.N. protected zone.
Tell me again how this differs from the horrors of the Holocaust, besides the number of victims???

These 3 monsters (Milosevic, Stakic, Krstic), as well as Mladic and Karadzic, should rot in hell, where they surely belong.

Destro- it's funny how you always seem to scoup up this region's stories before nearly everyone else, but when it's related to these type of stories, you're eerily silent... hmmmm...

Sidebar comment on the same page...
Milomir Stakic was found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity for establishing a network of brutal prison camps where hundreds of Muslims were killed and thousands tortured, raped or treated with extreme brutality in 1992

The UN courts are shams, especially the kangaroo ICYU tribunal that has been torturing Milosevic for the last yr and a half.
IMO Stakic did not have his day in a real court, and until then I'd reserve judgement.

What stories? It is like saying Stalin's trials were fair and the verdicts just. The UN is not a true court and I disdain its authority and its verdicts.
The numbers are rubbish by the way. They are based on hearsay evidence provided by the Muslims.

The Serbs needed detention centers where to put captured enemy soldiers. What's so unusual about that? If civilians actually were murdered then I don't have a problem with this guy being thrown in prison, but I am curious what kind of evidence he was convicted on.
I still think Serbs should all be tried in Serbia and nowhere else. What country wouldn't have a problem with its citizens being tried by foreigners?
Serbia sets up its own war crimes court to try Serbs accused of war crimes

>>>>>Tell me again how this differs from the horrors of the Holocaust, besides the number of victims???<<<<
NYCR, are you seriuous or this is rhetorical question?
1. Prior to 1933 Jews did not plan nor advertise to exterminate Germans. Bosnian Muslims did plan to exterminate Serbs before 1992. "THE FOURTH REICH IS COMING" read a headline on Bosnian Muslim magazine cover with cartoon of Muslim carrying severed Serb head in his hands. In court ruling of ICTY's sister court, ICTR, similar cartoon was ruled to be public incitement to commit genocide. KIlling Serbs by severing their head was very common afterwards.
2. During HOLOCAUST (1933-45) Jews did not operate Extermination camps for Germans. Bosnian Muslims and Croats operated more than 250 detention and extermination camps for Serbs during Balkan war. Some of them continued to exist even after Deyton peace accords.
3. During HOLOCAUST 6 milion were starved, incinerated and gassed in extermination camps. Bosnian Muslims were not gassed, incinerated and starved to death.
5. BERGEN BELSEN was for real. Trnopolje was a hoax. Yet, all the media reported without blinking "BELSEN IN BOSNIA". Pictures were fakes. One of the best examples of Holocaust revisionism so far.
6. German Jews did not receive weapons and terrorist training to kill Germans. Bosnian Muslims did receive weapons and terrorist training to kill Croats and Serbs. Percentage of population loss is approximatelly the same for Muslims (14%) and Serbs (12%) Genocide, indeed.
7. Germans made extermination of the Jews an official policy of the Third Reich( Wansee protocol). There was no official policy to exterminate Bosnian Muslims in RS .
8. Bosnian Muslims fought on the side of Bosnian Serb Army (BSA/VRS). They even had their own units (e.g. Mesha Selimovich unit). Bosnian Muslim Politician Fikret Abdic Babo coordinated activities with Bosnians Serbs. No such activity existed between Jews and the Third Reich.
And so on. Holocaust is an unique event in human history. Attempt to relate Holocaust to dissimilar event which is different in nature, content and magnitude is HOLOCAUST REVISIONISM.
Verstehen?

Allzuklar. Just because certain Muslims acted against their own best interest doesn't make the number of exterminated Muslims fewer. OR THE MURDERERS ANY LESS CULPABLE.
To: Destro
It is like saying Stalin's trials were fair and the verdicts justWhether Stalin's trials were just or not, he was a monster and the verdict should have been death... Just like these monsters.
To: DTA
German Jews also did not outnumber the Germans, and have more armed men than the Germans. Weren't the Muslim forces significantly larger than the Serb forces? Do you have the numbers for the respective armies? The German Jews didn't fight, together with an invading army of a neighboring country, against the Germans. Croatia had its army brigades in Bosnia throughout Bosnian war.

Your post #14 is so full of lies, misrepresentation, and hyperbole, it's not even worth commenting on... Like your comment about the Serbs not starving the Bosnians... Like you didn't see the images of the concentration camps, where the Bosnians were thin as a rail, malnourished... Of course, comparing any two events will find similarities, so your arguments are baseless... The comparisons are all there for all to see... Milosevic wasn't hell bent on world domination, just the whole of what was Yugoslavia. He used ethnic cleansing, murders, you name it... Srebrenica is a perfect example...
It's a disgrace for anyone to keep sticking up for these monsters. History will judge them for what they were. Murderers of mass proportion.
To: NYC Republican
You ever heard of Naser Oric and what he and his soldiers did to the Serbs in the Srebrenica area?
