Karadzic Arrested
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/jul/22/serbia Very happy to hear about the arrest of Radovan Karadzic on a warrant from the for the International Criminal Tribunal. Maybe leaders like him will be deterred from committing crimes such as genocide if they think they might one day be brought to justice. On the other hand, maybe it will make dictators and war criminals even more reluctant to give up the reigns if they know that a prosecution may follow. What do you think? p.s. This is the 700th post on this forum!

Very good news that Karadzic has been caught, hopefully the Serbs can now get Ratko Mladic.

The Telegraph says that Ratko Mladic effectively 'sold' Karadzic to avoid being arrested himself: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/serbia/2448155/Ratko-Mladic-gave-up-ally-Radovan-Karadzic-to-save-himself.html Radovan Karadzic was arrested after information provided to investigators by the Hague's other most wanted man, Ratko Mladic, German intelligence sources have revealed. Gives a whole new meaning to the term "ratted", doesn't it? :) http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ratted 1. ratted to snitch or tell the police or other members of authority about a crime that you have witnessed or that you saw your friend doing

If that report is true then that is a clever way for Mladic to avoid being arrested, at least for now.
