Never mind the vile practice of “genocide denial,” it seems that the exuberant practice of genocide affirmation is now sweeping the Balkans. Genocide accusations are, it would seem, the latest fashion spreading out of the Balkans. On December 5, a former minister in the “government” of NATO occupied and administered Kosovo, Ivan Todosijevic, who happens…
The Sham of the Hague Tribunal: Creating the “evidence”
The text that follows was produced by our colleagues from the Balkan Conflicts Research Team. It is based on the video “The Sham of the Hague Tribunal.” The full video may be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmXiX3RAdI4&feature=youtu.be What formed the ICTY’s view of events? It seems to have been based on the narrative of the BBC series “The…
More on confessions at ICTY: A different view
Much of what passes for key evidence at ICTY can be traced back to the confessions of accused persons. An example is Momir Nikolic, whose “statement of facts” attached to his plea bargain with the Prosecution in 2002 finally lent an appearance of substance to the reburial narrative. The reburial story was launched originally to explain…
Edward S. Herman: Poor Marlise — Her Old Allies Are Now Attacking the Tribunal and Even Portraying the Serbs as Victims
This vintage piece by the late Prof. Edward Herman, an authoritative and astute critic of the Hague Tribunal, was written shortly after the publication of former ICTY Chief Prosecutor Carla del Ponte’s memoir “The Hunt: Me and the War Criminals.” In this review of Del Ponte’s book, which appeared in Global Research in 2008, Prof. Herman…
UN Commissioner for human rights Henry Wieland fails to locate crime witnesses shortly after the fall of Srebrenica
His British-sounding name notwithstanding, Henry Wieland was a Peruvian career diplomat and UN Commissioner for human rights. In the latter part of July 1995, Wieland was dispatched to Bosnia to investigate reported violations in Srebrenica. He conducted most of his investigation in Tuzla, which was the destination of most Srebrenica refugees, where he had an…
ICTY Chamber decision on DNA samples
The attached March 19, 2010, Chamber decision in the Karadzic case on defense access to DNA data illustrates perfectly the Hague Tribunal’s skewed concept of “equality of arms” between the parties. Out of about 6,600 alleged DNA matches, in this ruling the Chamber is contemplating the disclosure of at most 300, or about 5%. The…
Hannes Hofbauer: Judiciary as continuation of warfare — how the West uses Srebrenica to implement thought-crime legislation
Remarks read by the author at the Banja Luka Srebrenica Conference on April 13, 2019. The battle over Srebrenica in the 1990s was part of the Bosnian civil war, which had been brutally waged from both the Serb and the Muslim side. To use the definition of genocide exclusively for the killing that took place…
Trnovo execution video – another low point in the conduct of the Hague Tribunal
The June 2005 showing of an inflammatory, prejudicial and irregularly acquired execution video during a court session at the Hague Tribunal illustrates the fundamental irregularity of the court itself. It also corroborates the assessment of the Hague Tribunal in our new video, appropriately entitled The Rogue Tribunal. The introduction by the prosecution on June 1,…
BiH State War Crimes Court: When the clone outdoes the original
At one point the State War Crimes Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo was prepared to excuse key prosecution “Srebrenica genocide” witness Dražen Erdemović from appearing in a trial to personally give evidence against the defendants and to be cross-examined, while being ready to accept instead transcripts of evidence given by him in other…
ICTY summary of Srebrenica events
The ICTY summary of Srebrenica events as allegedly established in the various Srebrenica trials at the Hague is not a professionally written executive synopsis of the evidence, but a PR puff piece. The facts presented on this website refute every one of its major assertions, or at least cast sufficient reasonable doubt to invalidate it…
