However, most self-believing humanitarian characters such as you fashion yourself to be have presupposed,

fatally, that such bodies do have a right to exist- swallowing hook, line and sinker the hollow rhetoric of an

essentially valueless "international community" propelled by its own self-righeous bombast and soulless self-

defense system of technocracy. The Hague as an institution, and Del Ponte as a cartoon character, symbolize the

dumb gropings of a culture desperately trying to hide from the fact that it stopped believing in its own

alleged values long ago.

The epic conclusion:

"…This attitude isn’t exactly common but it is quite noticeable. Certain people seem not so much to doubt that

Western policies in the Balkans will succeed — which is perfectly reasonable — as to find any evidence of

their success so disturbing that it has to be ignored or explained away. We now see a similar attitude toward

developments in MBT Ema Sandals, but the circumstances of that war make it much easier to understand. In the

Yugoslav case, it’s frankly incomprehensible."
