Karadzic, possibly injured, slips NATO net
NATO forces scour fugitive's old headquarters town
Updated: 2:08 p.m. ET Jan. 11, 2004PALE, Bosnia - NATO troops on Sunday scaled down a major weekend hunt for top Bosnian Serb war crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic, triggered by a tip that injury may have forced him to seek help in his old headquarters town.
If Karadzic had indeed been there, he appeared to have once again slipped the net. By nightfall, only an ex-paramilitary policeman said to be “a supporter” had been detained, outside a nearby ski-resort hotel.
“They have been looking for my husband in the walls, in every inch of the house and -- how absurd -- in the septic tank,” said the former leader’s wife Ljiljana. “They seem to believe Radovan would hide like Saddam Hussein.”
The “short-notice” manhunt began in a snowstorm on Saturday, as 200 troops and police fanned out in the town of Pale to search hospital and church buildings from top to bottom, looking under beds, in cupboards and even the church bell-tower.

Send in Wesley, he'll get the job done.
What? He was in charge? But he said he would have captured Bin Laden.

Neither are the Bosnian Muslims, Jack.
BTW. Looks like your god escaped crucifixion again. Thanks to the French soldiers protecting him.

Bosnian Muslims are a little bit of everything, Arab settlers included.
Good for the Serbs. Good for Karadzic.

Radovan Karadzic, who gave the order for Srebrenica and delivered on the threat of genocide he himself made, will achieve his dream. God will give him justice. One way or another. I hope though that God allows us to do it for Him.

So are the Serbs.
To: Ronly Bonly Jones
Not really. But to be honest I don't care. I side with the Christian Arabs too.
