	BBC NEWS \| Europe \| Profile: Vojislav Seselj
		Vojislav Seselj has had a bumpy ride on the roller coaster of Serb nationalist politics - starting in a Sarajevo prison and becoming, in 2002, a runner-up for the presidency.
		Vojislav Seselj was a brilliant student, becoming the youngest PhD holder in Yugoslavia, and going on to teach first at Michigan and then at Sarajevo universities.
		As the battle for Bosnia unfolded, Mr Seselj was becoming a crucial ally of Mr Milosevic in parliament.

	Bosnia Report - November-December 1997 - The rise of Seselj
		Vojislav Seselj has come a long way since the day in November 1990 when, as a frequently charged, convicted and imprisoned Chetnik wearing a faded T-shirt with the motto 'Serb Crown' (in English), he was proposed as a candidate in the first multi-party elections by a group of 293 citizens.
		Seselj's populist movement based its self-promotion on a simple formula, which combined nationalist bragging ('patriotism'), social demagogy ('equal wages and pensions for all'), support for the central pillar of the regime (Slobodan Milosevic for president), and frequent accusations that the opposition was guilty of betraying the nation.
		For all that in July 1994 Mira Markovic (Milosevic's wife and the leader of JUL) dismissed Seselj as a 'reincarnation of a Turkish tyrant in the shape of of a deserter from the Bosnian front...

		Vojislav SESELJ, son of Nikola SESELJ, was born on 11 October 1954 in Sarajevo, Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina ("Bosnia and Herzegovina").

	RADIO FREE EUROPE/ RADIO LIBERTY
		Vojislav Seselj, the head of the Serbian Radical Party and a former presidential candidate, is expected to fly to the Netherlands on 24 February to turn himself over to the United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
		Seselj denies the charges and says the indictment is part of a U.S.-led plot to remove him from Serbia, where he says he is perceived as posing a threat to pro-Western leaders.
		The UN indictment accuses Seselj of having made speeches calling for the expulsion of Croatian civilians from parts of Serbia's northern province of Vojvodina and thus instigating his followers and the local authorities to engage in a campaign of persecution against the local population.

	[www.ANTIC.org] Serb Vows To Fight Charges at U.N. Court (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Seselj, 48, became an unofficial leader of Serbia's nationalists after former president Slobodan Milosevic was extradited to The Hague court in 2001 on charges of war crimes and genocide.
		Seselj is seen as one of the most important people to be pursued by the tribunal, which announced his indictment this month.
		Seselj, who said he would voluntarily surrender to the tribunal, announced early this month that he had booked a flight to the Netherlands, where the tribunal is based.

	CNN.com - Serb hardliner refuses to plead - Mar. 8, 2003
		Seselj, a burly nationalist who came second in last December's Serbian presidential election, said he wanted to exercise his right to delay his plea by up to 30 days to allow clarification of terms in the indictment that he said he did not understand.
		Seselj, 48, who has dismissed the 14 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia between 1991-93 against him as "fake," has followed in former Yugoslav president Milosevic's footsteps by opting to defend himself.
		Seselj, known for his fierce temper and scathing anti-Western remarks, is charged with responsibility for atrocities committed by his paramilitary troops in Croatia, Bosnia and in Serbia's northern province of Vojvodina between August 1991 and September 1993.

	Vojislav Seselj - Indictment

		Alternatively, the crimes enumerated in Counts 1 to 9 and 12 to 15 of the indictment were the natural and foreseeable consequences of the execution of the object of the joint criminal enterprise and Vojislav SESELJ was aware that such crimes were the possible outcome of the execution of the joint criminal enterprise.
		Vojislav SESELJ said: "Dear Chetnik brothers, especially you across the Drina river, you are the bravest ones.

		Seselj discusses speeches he made in the mid-ninties when he and Milosevic were in political conflict.
		Seselj explains that he lied in many of those speeches in order to damage Milosevic politically and that the prosecution should not rely on those speeches.
		Seselj claims that he lied in the documentary for political reasons and testifies that Milosevic never sent weapons to or commanded troops in Bosnia or Croatia.

		Although Vojislav Seselj's fans like to think that he was never a member of the Communist Party, it is a fact that "Vojo" joined the Communists by the age of sixteen, as a student of the elite 1st Sarajevo high school, where he was the president of the school's youth organization.
		Seselj failed to inform his supporters about some really juicy stuff from his darling Jean-Marie Le Pen's both distant and recent past; and as I already mentioned, the liberal parties in Serbia are either too busy defending the Radicals from foreign accusations or they are simply ignorant about the whole thing themselves.
		Although Seselj decided to appear before the tribunal by his own free will, he maintains that the tribunal is an illegal institution because it was not established by an international treaty like the new International Criminal Court, nor was it established by the UN General Assembly.

	Bosnia Report -July-September 2000
		Seselj and his party have also been conspicuous by their refusal to join the `public demand' that Milosevic be awarded the title of National Hero.
		A motive for Seselj's stance is sought in his alleged concern with the possible outcome of the forthcoming elections.
		NIN accompanied its report with extracts from a breathtakingly vulgar exchange between Vojislav Seselj and Mira Markovic in 1995, the year of the Dayton Agreement.

		Seselj said the charges were unclear, telling the presiding judge he would not enter a plea until all translations in the indictment were explained.

		Vojislav Seselj the ultra nationalist candidate who has the support of Slobodan Milosevic came third with 23.24%.
		Vojislav Kostunica readily drove home his opposition to the International Criminal Court as well as the “injunctions” made by the international community - he went as far as saying that the Serbs of Bosnia-Herzegovina would only be “temporarily” separated from their brothers in Serbia.
		Vojislav Kostunica however is in favour of slowing down the reforms which he thinks are creating greater social instability within the country.

		The regime would never issue the statements like those of Seselj, because of the manipulated voters of SPS who still believe they are voting a left wing party, and because of the international public which should be scared off with "opposition" worse than Milosevic himself.
		Dobrica Cosic got Seselj out of jail several times in eighties, which he "returned" with fathomless amount of hatred, libel and mistreatment, specially when he was abolishing Cosic from the post of the federal president in 1993.
		At the beginnings of multipartism in Serbia, Seselj performed his public addresses in front of Zagreb restaurant, where he, in two sizes too small T-shirt, with madness in his eyes and very notable speech fallacy (he can't pronounce "r"), he harassed the passers-by and distributed his misunderstood books for free.

		Like Milosevic, Seselj, 49, is conducting his own defense, which allows him to hold the floor in court, even now at preparatory hearings for the trial that may begin later this year.
		Seselj, a former Sarajevo University lecturer who founded an ultranationalist political party and his own armed militia, faces charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes in Bosnia and Croatia in the 1990s.
		Seselj's latest move that aggravated court officials came in December, when he managed to use the jail telephone to campaign for his Radical Party in the parliamentary elections of Serbia.

		Seselj has pleaded innocent to charges linked to the massacre of at least 255 non-Serbs in 1991 at a pig farm near the eastern Croatian town of Vukovar, and other incidents.
		The tribunal wants to be seen as abundantly fair to Seselj but at the same time prevent him from hijacking the proceedings and delaying the trial.
		Seselj has also demanded that judges remove their red-trimmed robes, claiming they are bad for his nerves because they remind him of members of the "Catholic Inquisition" or Nazi secret police, the Gestapo.

		Thus Seselj was sacked from the faculty in February 1982.
		The prosecution didn't mention in the indictment that Seselj was arrested in October 1990 by Milosevic's authorities and sentenced for trying to demolish Tito's villa and for organizing volunteers to fight in Croatia.
		Nikolic also said that Seselj could not have been involved in a conspiracy with Legija, because Seselj was the one who revealed to the public that Legija was involved in an earlier attempted assassination of Vuk Draskovic, and that it was Djindjic who protected Legija afterwards.

	Serbian Radical Party: The Hubris of Serbian Political Scene

		Seselj, whose most memorable quote is “I hate the Croats so much that I would have liked to gouge their eyes out with a rusty spoon”, was not an upright ultra-nationalist.
		In late February 2003, Seselj surrendered to the ICTY on the indictment of “eight counts of crimes against humanity and six counts of violations of the laws or customs of war for his alleged participation in a joint criminal enterprise”.

		According to Seselj, he used his interview with the BBC to sabotage Milosevic's relations with the West in the hope that he could scuttle the forthcoming Dayton agreement, which the Serbian Radical Party opposed.
		Seselj said that by telling this lie he hoped to create mistrust between Milosevic and the West, and in that way bring about the collapse of the forthcoming Dayton agreement.
		Seselj repeated that the threats were exclusively directed against fascists and fundamentalists, not towards regular Croatian and Muslim civilians.

		With Seselj's trial scheduled to start in a little over four months, prosecutors argue that appointing defence counsel is necessary both to protect the witnesses they plan to call and to prevent any possible delay to the start of the proceedings.
		Seselj is charged with extermination and murder, persecution, deportation and the forcible transfer of non-Serbs in Croatia and Bosnia and Hercegovina from 1991 to 1995.
		The prosecutors allege that Seselj "thrives on creation of scandal, conspiracies and publicity" and that he has stated that the tribunal provides a forum for the defence of Serb nationalism.

	Byzantine Sacred Art Blog: Kangaroo Court Petrified From One Indictee
		Vojislav Seselj, the president of the Serbian Radical Party, has been indicted by the Hague “tribunal” for what boils down to a verbal delict almost four years ago, and has been imprisoned in the Hague ever since, awaiting for his trial to begin.
		The “case” against Vojislav Seselj is entirely based on the claim he incited war crimes by his public statements -- something that is in most parts of the world generally known as the freedom of speech.
		Seselj’s indictment is the most bogus one of all at The Hague tribunal, since he’s not even charged on command responsibility, but on the principle of a verbal delict: that his words may have incited someone to commit a crime.
