It is a known fact that Bill Clinton and Helmut ohl, John Major, and others armed both Croatia and Bosnia (and against a UN Resolution that they themselves drafted and voted for).

Can you please identify this UN resolution that Helmut ohl voted for?

Or do what you do best and get involved in legal hair splitting about whether Helmut Kohl was prime minister at the time or whether Germany voted at the UNSC (which of course is besides the point).

Did you even read the link you provided?! Just curious, because that link shows that the resolution you are referring to was UNSCR 713 for which Germany did NOT vote at the UNSC as you incorrectly wrote! Great job mate for providing yourself the evidence that you are lying lol

Or do what you do best and get involved in legal hair splitting about whether Helmut Kohl was prime minister at the time or whether Germany voted at the UNSC (which of course is besides the point).

The point is that there was a UN Resolution to not arm anyone in the former Yugoslavia and Bill Clinton, John Major, and Helmut Kohl broke that resolution when they armed Bosnia and Croatia -- and that is a crime. lol :)

Lets also remember that those same people sent radical Islamic terrorists to Bosnia.

Prior to tho UNSC vote, there was a decision in the EU to impose its own arms embargo on the Republics of the SFRJ, are you going to suggest that Germany didn't instigate and vote for that decision? 
(Michael Thomas, 22 August 2016 23:53) 

The EU did not exist at that time mate, so it could not have taken the decision you are referring to!

The Germans sent thousands of tons of weapons to the Croats and Bosnian ISIS fighters in open defiance of UNSC Resolution 713 and in defiance of the EU's own embargo

I only debated lines of argument that you made. I assumed that you were not behaving like when you were a kid in your school days and making a pointless line of argument! Next time you might want to point out which lines of argument that you make are pointless so that readers can skip them!
----------

Well, OK, you win, Germany was not on the UN Security Council when the Yugoslav arms embargo was agreed, so it couldn't have voted for it.
(Michael Thomas, 22 August 2016 23:53) 

Of course and my advice to you is to check the facts before writing and don't rely on "facts" written by our dear friend "factman". Despite calling him/herself "factman", what he/she writes is seldom based on facts. As soon as I read his/her writing "it is a fact", that was a red flag that he/she must be lying, and indeed he/she did not disappoint :)

Michael,
With your way of thinking even Hitler should be presumed innocent. However, in Milosevic's case, like Hitler's, I think we can safely assume their guilt based on the preponderance of evidence.

"Milosevic has not been exonerated from guilt - Hague source"

Of course not, this was only a cheap try by certain Serian politician to make Serbs feel not so ashamed when they think about erecting a monument to honor this great Serbian statesman Slobo Milosevic. And of course to gain cheap points amongst the numerous Serb nationalist who still feel like the victims instead of the perpetrators in the YU wars.

It doesn't matter what "an unnamed spokesperson" at the ICTY says. What matters is the text of the judgment itself.

Whether Milosevic helped Bosnian or Croatian Serbs or not isn't the issue, and in any event it's not a crime and he never denied it anyway. What is a crime is ethnic cleansing and that's what the Karadzic judgment said Milosevic didn't agree with and actually opposed.

Regardless of what some unnamed spokesperson at the ICTY says, the Karadzic chamber did investigate Milosevic's guilt because the Karadzic indictment explicitly names Milosevic as his co-conspirator. That's why the Karadzic chamber made these findings in the first place. The Prosecution alleged that Milosevic and Karadzic undertook the same joint criminal enterprise together -- it's right there in the indictment. To pretend like the Milosevic and Karadzic cases are totally separate issues is completely disingenuous. Look at the indictments, Slobodan Milosevic's name is in Radovan Karadzic's indictment, and Radovan Karadzic's name is in Slobodan Milosevic's indictment. You can't separate the two.

Milosevic's participation in the joint criminal enterprise wasn't just excluded because there was "not enough evidence" against him. The Karadzic chamber went further and cited exculpatory evidence showing that he was opposed to ethnic cleansing. It's all right there in the judgment for anyone who cares to read it no matter what some unnamed spokesperson in The Hague has to say about it.

The only people Milosevic needs to answer to is the Serbian people!
He was a corrupt, self serving creature who abandoned his people to the hands of Croatian butchers in Krajina. His arrogance and ignorance or world politics was also to blame for his actions in Kosovo.
Things should have been handled differently, but this arrogant buffoon stumbled his way through things.
However at the end of the day he was never found guilty, despite being tried in a kangaroo court that was bias and has no credibility!

Paragraph 9 of the indictment against Karadzic says: "Radovan KARADZIC participated in an overarching joint criminal enterprise to permanently remove Bosnian Muslim and Bosnian Croat inhabitants from the territories of BiH claimed as Bosnian Serb territory by means which included the commission of [crimes]." And in Paragraph 11 the indictment asserts that "Radovan KARADZIC acted in concert with other members of this criminal enterprise including [...] Slobodan MILOSEVIC".

Conversely, paragraph 6 of the indictment against Milosevic says: "Slobodan MILOSEVIC participated in the joint criminal enterprise [...] The purpose of this joint criminal enterprise was the forcible and permanent removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from large areas of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, through the commission of crimes."

Milosevic was never found guilty of war crimes so he does not have to be exonerated. I just hope Tony Blair is found guilty, as most of Britain knows he already is guilty of war crimes.

pre 7 godina

The entire case against Milosevic and Karadzic was built around the premise of a “Joint Criminal Enterprise” (that Karadzic and Milosevic conspired together to cleanse Bosnia and create a “Greater Serbia” – an accusation that was dropped against Milosevic even during his trial).

Paragraph 9 of the indictment against Karadzic says: "Radovan KARADZIC participated in an overarching joint criminal enterprise to permanently remove Bosnian Muslim and Bosnian Croat inhabitants from the territories of BiH claimed as Bosnian Serb territory by means which included the commission of [crimes]." And in Paragraph 11 the indictment asserts that "Radovan KARADZIC acted in concert with other members of this criminal enterprise including [...] Slobodan MILOSEVIC".

Conversely, paragraph 6 of the indictment against Milosevic says: "Slobodan MILOSEVIC participated in the joint criminal enterprise [...] The purpose of this joint criminal enterprise was the forcible and permanent removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from large areas of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, through the commission of crimes." And in Paragraph 7, "The individuals participating in this joint criminal enterprise included Slobodan MILOSEVIC, Radovan KARADZIC, [etc ...]".

The charges against Milosevic and Karadzic have been linked for the Hague for all these years an still are...funny how they are now "separate" for the "serb bashers"

Yes, and you did not provide any evidence that ICTY said anything about Milosevic being not guilty of participating in a joint criminal enterprise with the "[etc...]"!

Alex R.

pre 7 godina

It doesn't matter what "an unnamed spokesperson" at the ICTY says. What matters is the text of the judgment itself.

Whether Milosevic helped Bosnian or Croatian Serbs or not isn't the issue, and in any event it's not a crime and he never denied it anyway. What is a crime is ethnic cleansing and that's what the Karadzic judgment said Milosevic didn't agree with and actually opposed.

Regardless of what some unnamed spokesperson at the ICTY says, the Karadzic chamber did investigate Milosevic's guilt because the Karadzic indictment explicitly names Milosevic as his co-conspirator. That's why the Karadzic chamber made these findings in the first place. The Prosecution alleged that Milosevic and Karadzic undertook the same joint criminal enterprise together -- it's right there in the indictment. To pretend like the Milosevic and Karadzic cases are totally separate issues is completely disingenuous. Look at the indictments, Slobodan Milosevic's name is in Radovan Karadzic's indictment, and Radovan Karadzic's name is in Slobodan Milosevic's indictment. You can't separate the two.

Milosevic's participation in the joint criminal enterprise wasn't just excluded because there was "not enough evidence" against him. The Karadzic chamber went further and cited exculpatory evidence showing that he was opposed to ethnic cleansing. It's all right there in the judgment for anyone who cares to read it no matter what some unnamed spokesperson in The Hague has to say about it.

In the so-called "Free" West, people are presumed innocent until proven guilty. We don't need to be exonerated of guilt. This is probably a sign of things to come. This is the new totalitarianism we are witnessing in the West. Everyone will be assumed "guilty" unless "exonerated" by our masters in Washington, Brussels, and, of course, Tel Aviv.

The only people Milosevic needs to answer to is the Serbian people!
He was a corrupt, self serving creature who abandoned his people to the hands of Croatian butchers in Krajina. His arrogance and ignorance or world politics was also to blame for his actions in Kosovo.
Things should have been handled differently, but this arrogant buffoon stumbled his way through things.
However at the end of the day he was never found guilty, despite being tried in a kangaroo court that was bias and has no credibility!

"Milosevic has not been exonerated from guilt - Hague source"

Of course not, this was only a cheap try by certain Serian politician to make Serbs feel not so ashamed when they think about erecting a monument to honor this great Serbian statesman Slobo Milosevic. And of course to gain cheap points amongst the numerous Serb nationalist who still feel like the victims instead of the perpetrators in the YU wars.

With your way of thinking even Hitler should be presumed innocent. However, in Milosevic's case, like Hitler's, I think we can safely assume their guilt based on the preponderance of evidence.

HYPOCRISY:

During the Radovan Karadzic trial, not enough evidence was found to prove that Slobodan Milosevic agreed to his (Karadzic's) plan, but it was found that he put arms and equipment at the disposal of the Bosnian Serbs.

from the "presecutor v. Kardzic"...google it...

3460. With regard to the evidence presented in this case in relation to Slobodan Milošević and his membership in the Joint Criminal Enterprize, the Chamber recalls that he shared and endorsed the political objective of the Accused and the Bosnian Serb leadership to preserve Yugoslavia and to prevent the separation or independence of BiH and co-operated closely with the Accused during this time. The Chamber also recalls that Milošević provided assistance in the form of personnel, provisions, and arms to the Bosnian Serbs during the conflict.11026 However, based on the evidence before the Chamber regarding the diverging interests that emerged between the Bosnian Serb and Serbian leaderships during the conflict and in particular, Milošević’s repeated criticism and disapproval of the policies and decisions made by the Accused and the Bosnian Serb leadership,11027 the Chamber is not satisfied that there was sufficient evidence presented in this case to find that Slobodan Milošević agreed with the common plan.
