 Chapter 9
The advantage that Mladic´ had over UN officials is that he understood his alter egos and their nature better than his alter egos understood Mladic´’s exemplification of charismatic authority.
One reason Mladic´, who is now an indicted war criminal by the International Tribual at The Hague, was not apprehended by NATO forces is that Western leaders still fear the charis­matic power that they believe that Mladic´ continues to possess.
Mladic´ harboured a particular resentment towards the Dutch, whose successive governments had consistently called for tougher action against the Serbs since the beginning of the war.… Mladic´ was out to teach the international community, and the Dutch in particular, a lesson.

Mladic and other war crimes suspects must face justice at the U.N. war crimes tribunal at The Hague, Netherlands, so that Serbians -- and other Balkan nations at the center of the bloodletting of the 1990s -- can put the past behind them, Tadic said.
The Hague tribunal indicted Mladic and the Bosnian Serb wartime political leader Radovan Karadzic for genocide and other war crimes during Bosnia's 1992-95 war, including the 1995 massacre of as many as 8,000 Muslim men and boys in the eastern Bosnian enclave of Srebrenica.
The European Union has made Mladic's extradition to the U.N. court a condition for the Balkan country to start negotiations in October to bring it closer to eventual EU membership.

Mladic was not given full authority over the widely scattered militias until a year ago, but the "cleansings" have gone on.
Mladic's retort was to the point: "If you do that, I'll bring the war to your doorstep!" "I was born in what was called Old Herzegovina," he says, referring to a strip of mostly mountainous territory that was an ancient Serbian dukedom.
Mladic's first question was: "Who is the enemy?" His answer to himself and his troops: "First, the enemy is anyone who shoots at our soldiers, cuts off their water and electricity, provokes, blockades." In the Croat-Serb fighting of 1991, Mladic moved with a combination of audacity and guile that astonished his opponents.

 Del Ponte : Serbia knows Mladics location -   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Mladic and Bosnian Serb wartime leader Radovan Karadzic were indicted almost a decade ago by The Hague tribunal for the massacre of 8,000 Muslims in Srebrenica and the 43-month siege of Sarajevo, which claimed thousands of civilian lives.
Mladic is being protected by a group of former military loyalists, Del Ponte said, but his support has declined since the 2003 killing of reformist Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic.
It's vital that Mladic and Karadzic are arrested this year, Del Ponte says, if the tribunal to meet its deadline to end trials by 2008 and wrap up appeals cases to close its doors in 2010.
