If i know the British (and i do),so will this case of extradition share the same fate as Russia's request for the extradition of Berezovsky.

If the extradition occurs, it would be for (geo)political reasons. UK has been making interesting noises lately, such as claiming that Serbs wanted to protect the Christian, European civilization from Moslems, and simiilar neologisms. As anyone old enough will remember, Miloshevic never claimed to be the defender of European civilization! What I suspect is going on, based on other noises of similar content, is the means of sucking in Serbia by puting a bit of fuel to the fire. As Serbian population has been reluctant to join NATO, and saw US an UK in the light of principal agressors --- a little old colonial magic is needed to make feebleminded populace feel warm around the heart, the moment superior beings recognize their greavances. If there is anyone who needs to be alarmed are Serbs. Beware the British Trojan horse. The religious issues have not ripped the Balkans apart, European and US tussle at the end of the Cold War accoplished that. The rest, including religious and nationalist strife was merely the consequence, not the cause of the breakup. It will be interesting to see the aftermath. If Serbian politicians make some concrete promises in the direction of "Euro-Atlantic" (with emphasis on Atlantic) integration, Ejup Ganic will be sacrificed on this altar. Otherwise, he will not be extradited. To Bosnian, do not be angry at the dirty world politics. Look around yourself, and think how much has this whole war affected the Moslem population of Bosnia. Serbs and Moslems are the big time loosers, and intentially so. Keep in mind when you go to the gas station that Russia was not the country that partook in the Balkan tragedy. And it is sad to see, that even today, you can believe the nice colonial fairy tale spun for your consumption. Remember, colonial powers love their pets, until the time comes to toss them aside for other more attractive reasons.

Bosnian, From an American, we will not forget what the Serbs did to the Bosnians. I was there in 92 with the US military and I saw first hand what the Serbs did. I pray for you and your people, brother. Stay strong Bosnia!

To Bianca: Such a nice and clever analysis that you have made Bianca ! I agree with it fully. As a Serb I do not believe any single word that is comming from British side. The Britons have already exposed all too well their real intentions towards Serbs. According to recent polls there is a large majority of Serbs who believe Britain is their harshest enemy. Britain will never forgive to Serbs for their prorussian feelings. As for the Serbs versus Muslims issue, it should be noted that Serbs have never fought against Muslims as such, but because Bosnian Muslems were instigated by Britain and US. A great deal of Muslim states have even supported Milosevics regime in his fight against US and other westerners (as for me, I have never agreed with the policy of ex President Milosevic for he didn't care too much about real Serbian interests). As for the Bosnian Muslims, it is not a secret to anyone informed that they are nothing but those Serbs whose predecesors have once accepted Islamic religion. They speak the same language, look the same and behave the same way as all other Serbs. Many of Bosnian Muslems still do keep the icons of the Christian Saint who once had been the protector of their family, before they turned to Islam. These Bosnian Muslems are in a particular bad position because westerners dislike them not only for they are Serbs in essence, but also because of their religion. The only occassion(s) when they can count on some form of help from the West is when they allow to be turned against their Serbian cousins.

Mr. Ganic is humanitarian war criminal and as such will never be extradited or tried, as Bianca eloquently explained this is a bone of good will by the new master race to occupied Serbs run by a quisling government of Tadic.
