To be honest, I think Milosevitch had too many flaws to be a martyr. To some extent, he provoked the three-way war that accompanied the breakup of Yugoslavia. He was more at fault in Bosnia, probably, than in Kosovo.
Nevertheless, it remains true that we fought on the wrong side, against our old Serb allies, and on behalf of Albanian Muslim terrorists. And unlike Bush's conduct of the Iraq war, Clinton deliberately targeted civilians in Belgrade. He didn't kill them by accident, in the course of bombing legitimate targets, he killed them on purpose.
Even though Milosevitch was far from sinless, the ICC has no jurisdiction to try him. It has shown its partiality by favoring one faction over another, as if crimes of various sorts were not committed by all three factions.
Thank you Cicero, for helping me to understand this. It is very complex and
I needed to have my "hunches" validated. The media has painted Milosovic as
evil. That makes me suspicious. When important people die in prison, I'm
suspicious. His trial was delayed and in the eyes of the world, Milosovic just
"went away". That made me suspicious. This story isn't over.
