NEWS & LETTERS, February-March 2006Our Life and Times by Kevin A. BarryBosnia anniversaryIt is the tenth anniversary of the Dayton Accords, the rotten U.S.-orchestrated compromise that ended the Bosnian and Croatian Wars of 1991-95 by ceding over half of Bosnian territory to Serbian forces. Some 200,000 were killed in those wars, mainly at the hands of Serbian nationalists, with most of the victims Muslim or Croat civilians. Top Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic is on trial for genocide at The Hague, while the other two biggest war criminals, Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic, who ordered the 1995 Srebrenica massacre of 7,000 Bosnian men, remain at large. Supposedly the post-Milosevic Serbian government is helping the war crimes prosecutors to track them down, but... In December, the dissident Serbian Radio B92 reported that, during the past decade, General Mladic’s military pension has been paid every month into his bank account. His relatives and two Serbian military officers are authorized to make withdrawals. |
