And how is it, Richard Holbrook (Lying Moralist), the present Obama administration of my own country, the United States, and/or any other UN member state can stand anyone being tried at the Hague (ICC) court at all, which I testify to, is an institution at its very conception stages was based upon trading bribery for judicial appointments and verdicts (?)
Why is the entire world so quite and mentally bent on covering this fact up (?) How about an answer NBC, CBS AND CNN (?) I know you have seen my blogs because my book is written all over your own news sites (!)
I witnessed with my own eyes and ears when attending the 2001 Preparatory Meetings to establish an newly emergent International Criminal Court, the exact caliber of criminal corruption running so very deeply at the Hague, that it was a perfectly viable topic of legitimate conversation in those meetings I attended to debate trading verdicts AND judicial appointments, for monetary funding.

*I am glad to continue receiving your latest news on the status conference in Beograd (!) I am all for closing down the Hague ASAP and rallying international support to do so. I still vividly remember whereby Spain was one of the most vocal countries in the ICC Prep Meetings in 2001 at the UN NYC: The lady representative from Spain wearing glasses with shortish i hair sat in the far corner at the table to my left arguing that Spain wanted to give the ICC more money to directly influence its “decisions over verdicts and judges,” in particular...

In the case of Dr Karadzic currently in the Hague, my eye witness testimony proves the Hague was never a true tool of international social justice from its very conceptions/construction phase.
This legal technicality indicates the Hague must dismiss charges against Dr karadzic and others awaiting trials in the Hague jail; like it or not.
If American criminal Madoff stood in front of court that was as seriously corrupted, flawed and compromised as the Hague, he would have to be acquitted or transferred to another court.
Unfortunately for the United Nations member states instituting the ICC housed at the Hague, in Karadzic and other Hague case, there is no other international court capable; even if there was, the same United Nations member states that spoke about trading judicial appointments and verdicts for funding when I attended the 2001 ICC Preparatory Meetings at the UN in Manhattan would be morally incapable of constructing another court to hear cases.
My suggestion is to transfer immediately Dr Karadzic and others awaiting trial at the Hague back to Serbia and their respective countries to decide how to proceed next.
