Karadzic will be in jail, but what about Bush, Blair, Clinton ...
Karadzic will be in jail, but what about Bush, Blair, Clinton ...
If you are a member of the Western alliance, you are free to commit genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, ... [according to] ... a writer and blogger Neil Clark. Attached to the "Rasa USA Today," Clark asks why are people responsible for much greater crimes than those for which Radovan Karadzic was found guilty, still at large and why will they never be criminally prosecuted.
A year ago, the report "Counting Bodies", collected by international physicians, says that at least 1.3 million people died in the 'war against terrorism' led by the US in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
US worse than Hitler
This dreadful figure must be added the numbers killed during and after the NATO bombing in Libya (more than 50,000), with starvation due to lack of basic means of subsistence and famine. There are also those who died in the Iraq war and those who were killed by terrorists in Syria by armed and financed by the West and its regional allies.

The evil if you are dark-skinned, or Serbs
As regards this analyst, the International Criminal Court is biased as the Tribunal in The Hague. Before that court has so far indicted 36 accused and they are all dark-skinned Africans. White war criminals (unless they are Serbs) do not have to worry.

- In reality, the Western neo-conservatives and their allies are responsible for a large number of deaths, destruction and human suffering, even compared with the dark days of the Third Reich and Adolf Hitler. But they are not brought to trail in The Hague - said Clark and specify:
- If you no one is really above the law, then we would see George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Tony Blair and Clinton in the courtroom; and not only Radovan Karadzic.
What is worse, Clark believes, is that the Western war lobby is trying to use the charges against Karadzic as a justification for their own bloody interventionist policy. The war in Bosnia is not, as the neoconservatives argue, an example of "what happens when the West does not intervene." In contrast, the war in BiH has caused quite excessive interference of the West.
- We should all be focusing our attention on the "evil Karadzic," but let's not go too deeply into the question of how the secessionist wars in Yugoslavia started and when he lit the fuse - says Clark.
For the US and its allies, Yugoslavia of the 1990s was the "sacrificial" country. The West has supported those who aspired to the disintegration of Yugoslavia, such as the Croatian leader Franjo Tudjman and Alija Izetbegovic in Bosnia, says Clark.
He estimated that they were much more extreme in their policy than "official specific bad guy" Slobodan Milosevic, who [was in the way with a united or federated] Yugoslavia.
During 1992, the Lisbon agreement was reached on the peaceful division of BiH and Karadzic was one of the signatories. However, the agreement has sabotaged the intervention of US Ambassador Warren Zimmerman, who asked Izetbegovic to withdraw his consent.
- This does not reduce the charges against Karadzic for his later actions, but without the intervention Zimmerman, it is likely that the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina could have been avoided - Clark notes and points:
...
Does anyone really can not believe that Karadzic would have faced with 40 years of imprisonment had he served US interests in the Balkans?
Indonesian dictator General Suharto committed not one, but two massacres during his career and the number of those killed exceeded one million, but he died a free man after 86 years. Unlike Karadzic, Suharto was a favorite of the US State Department, said Clark.
- International Tribunal for War Crimes in the former Yugoslavia is very good on the radio judgments against Serbs, but declined to file charges against leaders and officials of NATO for war crimes committed during the illegal bombardment of Yugoslavia in 1999. When asked why the court does not consider the crimes of NATO, former Chief Prosecutor of the Hague Tribunal Carla Del Ponte replied that it was then "perfect justice".
Part of the problem for indictment against Western leaders, Clark thinks, is that the International Criminal Court has not adopted an amendment to its Rome Statute to come under the jurisdiction of the "war of aggression". [comment: see below]
- What we have now is a system of international justice, according to which those who commit war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, are prosecuted only if they are "official enemy" the United States, but those who start wars are protected with immunity.
So Karadzic, who, according to the indictment responsible for the deaths of several thousand people, was sentenced to 40 years in prison, while those responsible for several million dead, after initiating the wars of aggression, remain free to enrich themselves and to begin new military conflicts. - Indicates Clark for "Rasa USA Today".
