The worst part is that he still has supporters back home. Luckily, I am no longer forced to interact with my dumbass relatives who do.

He is un-fuckin'-believable.

I remember this war :(

Prosecutors say Karadzic orchestrated a campaign to destroy the Muslim and Croat communities in eastern Bosnia to create an ethnically pure Serbian state. He denies any guilt - although he refused to enter a formal plea - and could face life in prison if convicted.

Ugh >:(

The campaign included the 44-month siege of the capital, Sarajevo, and the torture and murder of hundreds of prisoners in detention camps, and culminated in the massacre of around 8,000 Muslim males in one week in July 1995.

Is this the one where the bodies were thrown into a river? I remember watching a documentary about it.

If you could link to or tell me the name of that doc, I'd be most appreciative.

I'm sorry, I watched the documentary on our local TV years ago and I can't remember the title :/

That was the one were my government's troops failed, sadly.

Ooh, yes. And put nails in the baseball bats too.

On top of the rage that others have expressed as well as I could... Really, dude? If you really think your cause is justifiable, "just and holy," and that you have "good evidence and proof" to that end, why would you spend eight years in hiding with a foot-long beard?
