remember this - Serbian soldiers' rapes of Bosnian (Muslim) women??

[bobbieinok]

I read the following (I think it was in MS magazine).

1-Serbs gang-raped Bosnian women as a way of dishonoring their Bosnian Muslim enemies.

2-They video-taped the rapes and sold the videos as porn in Central Europe.

3-ME Muslim doctors went to Bosnia to perform abortions on Muslim women raped.

4-Women's groups around the world attempted to have rape designated a war crime. They failed at the time, but I don't know what the situation is today.

4. it is a war crime

the Tribunal on war crimes in Yugoslavia has recognized it as such.

But of course Bush has refused to recognize the International Criminal Court, so that US citizens cannot be prosecuted. And if they somehow are arrested and brought to the Hague, the US army will invade the Netherlands to "liberate" them... Don't laugh, this is law in the US...

US invasion proposal shocks MPs

10 June 2002

THE HAGUE — The Dutch parliament was shocked by a US legislative proposal giving an official green light to a US invasion of the Netherlands should it be deemed necessary to free US citizens from the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

A Volkskrant newspaper report said almost all Dutch political parties believed the US proposal undermined the authority of the court, which will officially become active from 1 July.

The parties demanded that caretaker Foreign Affairs Minister Van Aartsen persuade the US to drop the legislation, with VVD MP Terpstra claiming the US proposal was "bizarre and absurd".

Terpstra said the US refusal to sign the court's treaty was its right, but found the legislative proposal for military action went too far, the report said.

The proposal — called the American Services Members' Protection Act — is designed to prevent the International Criminal Court gaining judicial authority over US soldiers.

The government of President George W Bush and the US Congress is fiercely opposed to the court, claiming it violates US sovereignty.
