Milosevic dead

Aventinian

I didn't get a paper this morning due to the weather, so this is the first I knew of his death.

It's times like this I wish I was religious... but I suppose sometimes the most evil scum in the world do get away with it.

Whatever "justice" would have brought, the punishment would not weigh up to the number of people he had slaughtered.

I don't know if what I said there makes sence, but I don't really know how to say it otherwise Confused

In a strange way, justice has been done: a man who was strong enough to send thousands of people to an early death has died, bitter and weak, in a jail cell in The Hague.

No one might have said the word "guilty", no earthly judge might have passed a sentence. But on some level, Milosevic has received the justice that as you say, Nina, no court could really administer.

does no one think how convenient it was for slobodan milosevic to die in his cell before his trial came to a conclusion,i think his previous hearing where a farce the same way as suddama is,for instance,suddam is being tried by the iraqis,yet american investigators where out gathering evidence to be used against suddam at his trial,also slobadan supposedly wrote a letter saying that he was being poisened,then next minute,he's dead,i remember david kelly saying how he would probably be found dead in a wood,where he regularly went walking,and he new he was going to be killed by the state

These so-called international tribunals seem to have a peculiar notion of justice, it seems to me. When might they get around to Henry Kissinger, or Augusto Pinoche, or George W. Bush, or Madeline Albright, for starters? Or is this only the sort of justice that we reserve for the people we can pick on?

Despite the Netherlands police deciding that they should not pursue it they accepted the correctness of his previous blood test showing he had been poisoned. All the autopsy showed was that this poison was not in his body at the time of death & thus had not had extra poison in the last few days. Considering that he was imprisoned under 24 hour video surveillance it must be obvious that the only people able to poison him were the NATO funded court.

Of course virtually all reporting of this "trial" has been kept off our screens ever since Milosevic was able to discredit every Nato/Nazi witness & evidence. His murder removes the inconvenient fact that there was absolutely no evidence against him.

The same, of course, could not be said of Clinton, Kohl, Blair & their KLA henchcreatures who are, beyond any question whatsoever, guilty of war crimes (making agressive war, deliberate bombing of civilians) & crimes against humanity (genocide, ethnic cleansing, child sex slavery & assassination).

Unfortunately, in the real world justice is not always done but let nobody ignorantly abuse the memory of a man who was 10,000 times more decent than any of the obscene filth who made up our government. Just because the racist scum at the BBC say something doesn't make it in any way true.
