		Babic, 48, once one of Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's closest allies, was convicted in January of one count of persecution for the seven-month campaign against non-Serbs in the self-proclaimed Croatian Republic of Krajina.
		Babic pleaded guilty to the single count in a deal in which prosecutors dropped four other charges of murder, cruelty and the wanton destruction of villages during the war in Croatia, which began when the Serbs revolted after Croatia broke away from Yugoslavia in 1991.
		Babic was among the most influential figures of that policy, at the start of the 1991-1992 Croatian war, said the judgment, read out at the U.N. tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.

	ANALYSIS OF THE TESTIMONY OF MILAN BABIC
		The second allegation, broadly presented by Babic throughout his testimony, was that the YU Army had been controlled and manipulated by Milosevic to clash with the Croats with no real reason, through a series of provocations by the local Serbs against the Croats, into which the Army would step in heavily.
		One of the accusations made by Babic (and gladly used and exploited by the Prosecution) was the alleged existence of a sinister plan of Milosevic to use the human material of the Krajina refugees to people Kosmet with the Serbs.
		Milan Babic found a grain of courage to de-mask himself at the end, but not enough courage to refuse being flmailed by a threat of indictment.
