"Croatian leadership should have gone to Hague"

So why didn't they bring forth all this evidence and prosecute? It's like the claim Izetbegovic and Tudjman were supposedly going to be indicted coming after they died. If the Hague had been serious they would have done something, instead they have a few token people in farcial trials.

They never even brought forward the evidence and witnessing (to videos and claims) of Naser Oric and the 28th Brigade's decapitation of Serbs around Srebrenica and scortched earth policy towards Serbian villages he enacted since 1992.

I was just going to say the same thing ida. Not a very good article B92, you don't explain why the proceedings didn't go through.

The Hague is a farce. Unfortunately a political directed farce established in order to cover up for failures made by socalled superpoliticians. They managed to use the court for the purpose of own legacy. Today many of them promote themselves world-wide and cash huge amounts for telling what they did and never what they could have done in order for many things not to happen.

If international law were put on trial, I am not sure it would be acquitted. Well, it might be, but only by reason of insanity. It is beyond the powers of an ordinary person to understand why international law includes both the right of nations to self-determination and the principle of the inviolability of borders. That contradiction has brought suffering to millions, both those who try to use the law to gain independence, and those who invoke the law to prevent them from doing so. Actions of the ICTY in consistently issuing new indictments and the aggressive, outrageous conduct of Carla Del Ponte kept nationalism alive.

The Hague is pretty much a useless institution and the sooner we are rid of it, the better. Genocide is not a crime like shoplifting, or even simple first-degree murder. Genocide is not a matter for a protracted criminal trial by an organization that can barely utter the word “genocide” while hundreds of thousands and butchered in Darfur and Somalia and Rwanda and Iraq. The UN has demonstrated quite amply that it can not be trusted with anyone’s protection, much less justice.
