Killer Poetry

"PARIS — Radovan Karadzic, one of the world’s most wanted war criminals for his part in the massacre of nearly 8,000 Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica in 1995, was arrested Monday in a raid in Serbia that ended a 13-year hunt."

So reads the NY Times first paragraph.

My favorite part of this story is that Mr. K. did not waste his time hiding in barn lofts.

No. The man who had thousands raped and terrorized and placed in extermination camps published a book of children's poetry in 2002.

Who was the enlightened publisher?

K. is charged now with genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes.

Come on...he writes poetry for kids. He can't be that bad, can he?

I'd like to add Wally Oppal and the B.C. Human Rights Commission and the National parole Board to this scenario and see what we get.
