	Ante Gotovina (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		How the prosecutors can conclude that Ante had ‘overall command responsibility’; for the operation, when the facts are clear that he himself was commanded by Zagreb, which in turn was directed and supported by US agencies, who are remaining silent about their involvement, is suspicious in itself.
		Ante Gotovina offered himself as a witness, but despite being aware of these facts, the prosecution is determined that he stands trial.
		Ante Gotovina, is an innocent man and his unjust indictment must be immediately withdrawn, his reputation re-instated, and his family be left to continue their lives in peace.

	The Token Defendant - by Nebojsa Malic
		It was, however, a booster to the foundering Inquisition, whose main effort to construct a narrative of the 1990s Balkans wars, with Serbs as the chief culprits, has been frustrated both by the Milosevic trial and the inability to capture the leaders of Bosnian Serbs, Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic.
		Gotovina's supporters organized protest rallies this weekend, ranging from several hundred in Zagreb and Croat-inhabited portions of Bosnia, to tens of thousands in Split.
		The Inquisition officially charges Gotovina with command responsibility in the murder of some 150 civilians, wanton destruction of property, and the organized persecution of hundreds of thousands of Serbs driven from Croatia in the summer of 1995.

	Croatia: Gotovina to go to The Hague - news.amnesty - Amnesty International
		The arrest of the former Croatian Army General Ante Gotovina is a major step in addressing impunity for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the 1991-1995 war in Croatia, Amnesty International said.
		Ante Gotovina went into hiding in June 2001, allegedly after the Croatian authorities had informed him of a sealed indictment against him.
		The failure of the Croatian authorities to fully cooperate with the Tribunal, including by arresting and transferring to the Tribunal’s custody Ante Gotovina, delayed the launch of EU accession negotiation.

	Ante Gotovina: Gangster, General, National Hero... War Criminal?
		Ante Gotovina was born on the 12th of October, 1955 on the Adriatic Sea island of Pasman (near Zadar).
		On the 9th of October, 1992, Gotovina was appointed as Commander of the sixth operational zone, later Split military district.

	Book Fingered Alleged War Criminal - CBS News
		A retired Croatian army general, Gotovina was indicted by the U.N. tribunal in connection with the killings of at least 150 Serbs by troops under his command and for the expulsion of about 150,000 others during Croatia's 1991-95 war.
		Saturday, Gotovina was taken from a prison outside Madrid and taken to a military base near the capital, a ministry spokeswoman said.
		Many in Croatia are convinced that Gotovina, who joined the French Foreign Legion at the age of 18 and fought in Africa and Latin America in the '70s and '80s before joining Croatian troops in 1991, was too experienced to allow himself to be caught.

	Ante Gotovina - HEROJ!
		Gotovina's troops liberated large swaths of Croatian territory that were brutally occupied by Serb paramilitaries; he also saved tens of thousands of besieged Muslim refugees from being slaughtered in northwestern Bosnia.
		Gotovina's forces delivered a decisive blow to Slobodan Milosevic's genocidal project of an ethnically pure “Great Serbia,” which butchered over 250,000 people (many of whom were the elderly, women and children) and drove nearly 2 million from their homes.
		The Gotovina case has repercussions that are much larger than the fate of one man. Croatia will be branded in the eyes of the international community as a nation based on ethnic cleansing and mass murder.

		A prominent supporter of Ante Gotovina has revealed the Croatian general indicted for war crimes will try to embarrass the US if he is extradited to The Hague for trial.
		Gotovina's supporters say two prominent US diplomats, Peter Galbraith and Richard Holbrooke, should be allowed to testify if the general eventually stands trial, as they could prove that he fought a clean war and reveal the extent of American involvement in the conflict.

	CLOSE ICTY
		Carla Del Ponte imagined General Ante Gotovina would be an appropriate political "counterpart" for Slobodan Milosevic and other Serbian war criminals such as Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic, although the former defeated them and stopped their very crimes.
		If she was able to accuse an honorable man such as General Ante Gotovina, she's capable of causing him any other damage for the ICTY to survive the current crises.
		They are aware of great injustice they have done to the General Ante Gotovina, and it is too late for them to face the truth, given their Machiavellian instinct: they know they destroyed human lives beyond repair and they will look to finish the job so not to fear any opposition.

	US Ambassador John Bolton - Free General Ante Gotovina. The CWA is the premier and most influential organization and ...
		General Gotovina's leadership of Operation Storm, the 1995 Croatian lightening military offensive, not only restored Croatia's territorial integrity and recaptured territory that had been conquered and ethnically cleansed by rebel Serbs, it also saved tens of thousands of besieged Bosnian Muslim refugees in the enclave of Bihac in northwestern Bosnia.
		The Gotovina indictment, by falsely claiming that Operation Storm sought to deliberately ethnically cleanse 150,000 ethnic Serbs from Croatia, provides Serbian revanchists with the moral and legal basis to reclaim large swaths of Croatian territory in the future.
		If General Gotovina is sent to The Hague, where he will be certainly found guilty under the trumped up and bogus charges of "command responsibility," it will result in a great victory for Milosevic's allies and the supporters of a Great Serb empire from the Danube to the Adriatic.
