Justice delayed

It is the 20th anniversary of the murder of three Kosovo American former Kosovo Liberation Army fighters who strayed into Serbian territory, after the war in Kosovo ended. Following a court conviction and two-week sentence, they were released, recaptured, and executed by Serbian Interior Ministry agents. Here are the details, provided by bytyiqbrothers.org:

Further details are available here. This is the video version:

It is past time that Serbia provide accountability for these murders. Those who can provide comparable details on crimes against Serbs committed after the war will find me just as exigent about those. It just isn’t going to be possible to resolve the remaining issues between Belgrade and Pristina without accountability.
