Fair?
How could you compare him to Milosevic?!
He didn't lead an army to invade another country!!!

There is defending your country and there is commiting atrocities that go beyond 'terms of engagement'. They are responsible for carrying out these atrocities (same kind as carried out by Milosevic or a number of others being tried for war crimes).
Whatever 'side' one may be on....

The Serbs invaded, occupied homes, all he did was defend our country and take back what is ours.
Wouldn't you do the same if your country was invaded?
The pricks placed land mines everywhere, my cousin died because of a mine.
All these accusations are shit.
Wasn't operation storm backed by the USA????
YES IT WAS!

Why am I not surprised dimitris......

And that is very sad. But on the flip side, I work with a Serb whose whole family has been killed by the croats (parents/brother/wife/2 kids) and he was held in a 'camp' for month (no reason - not political, not a combattant). His family/ancestors had been living in Krajina for generations. For them, it was their land as well.
War is bad - whatever side one is on
Not really a reference, is it?
Again, whatever side one comes from, if one commits atrocities, one needs to be accountable for them. Full stop.
We're not the ones who planted land mines and raped, murdered.
Take a look at what happened in Srebrenica!
And Red Rock, yes it was a reference, the USA backed Operation Storm.
So did Clinton break the rules?
If the USA were okay with us taking back what is ours then why are we now getting punished?
I am not saying that one needs to take things lying down and turn the other cheek.
And yes, Srebrenica - an atrocity. Amongst others committed by ALL parties (eg against the Serbs in Bosanska Posavina). That's what I'm trying to say. Of course one must defend one's country/liberties, etc. but this is not at the 'detriment' of civilians. Murder, ethnic cleansing, rounding up innocent people, etc.
As you are aware, former Yugoslavia had three different 'people' living together. Historically, there have always been 'issues', whether based on ethniticy, religion, etc. Not one of these three main groups can claim to be completely 'innocent'....
War mean pain for ALL involved.
Think of my people what you will.
Enough said.
Crimes were committed by all, whether on 'different' groups on 'own' soil or on foreign soil. The result is the same.

Karadžić still thinks that the massacres were "justified" !!!
I think that there is no way to "justify" the torture and killing of thousands and thousands of innocent people by no one.
We all seem to have personal sad and traumatic stories. From this conflict, I have some from the Croat, Bosnian, Serb and Kosovan side. Same kind of stories, same sadness in the end.
Edit: my quoting going all wrong!
its kinda civil war...the worst of wars..sad..alot of people could nt live this bad sitiuation came in Greece..
believe me...i see it alot..people with guns,with power unfortuantly use alot of times for do bad things..wasnt Milocevic the only problem in the area..there are alot of milocevic,in all army,goverments..

The international community fucked up this conflict royally...The US(My country) sat under Bush Sr not wanting to get involved. But he was more than happy to assist Kuwait around that time....I wonder why???? If someone comes to your town not playing by the rules of engagement....its time to take off the white gloves and take care of business. If the Croats stayed put....things would be different now
Actually...I don't know when it was more "fucked up"...before or after the "international community's" intervention!
Bush and Baker etc. didnt want to set foot in a civil war. Yet Jr. and his boys act like potential for a Iraqi civil war was never there...yea right. Sorry to compare 2 different conflicts, but I feel its relative to the big picture
Libya is a civil war(oil) we are there, involved. How bout Darfur...I guess its not a place we can be for 50+ years with military bases and no bid contracts

“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Well there are British military bases in Cyprus so the US are served well! But we do have really good oil (Olive oil that is
I think the greatest example of recent history was Rwanda!

Anyway we are getting off topic!
