Croatia is headed toward another war. The Balkans - again - will explode with violence. It is only a matter of time. And the so- called "international community" has been pivotal in stoking the flames of ethnic conflict.
Recently, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) based in The Hague, Netherlands, sentenced Croatian Gen. Ante Gotovina to 24 years in prison. The ICTY's ruling rightly has sparked angry protests across Croatia.

Erikkson examines approaches to the humiliating treatment prohibition taken by the International Criminal Court and the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and critiques them as good faith efforts that raise significant fairness concerns. He also proposes two different offenses for future use in criminal prosecutions, justifies the elements as more consistent with Geneva Convention values, and discusses the offenses in relation to state responsibility.

Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb wartime commander, was captured last week. For 16 years, he had been a fugitive from justice. Gen. Mladic was wanted for genocide and crimes against humanity. His arrest in Lazarevo, a small town north of Belgrade, Serbia's capital, is supposed to bring closure to the Balkan wars of the 1990s. Contrary to conventional wisdom, it won't.
