Most of the Swedish bloggers have for weeks left their readers behind, going on holiday, enjoying fun in the sun without their laptops. It would be easy to think I was doing the same, as I seem to be blogging less frequently. No such luck for me, unfortunately. Just the same old work, work, work. The most frustrating thing is I have so much to write about and never the time. For now I just have to share this story.
A Serbian tour company is offering a tour of Radovan Karadzic's regular joints and hang-outs. The tour is deliciously named 'Pop Art Radovan'!
To me it just seems so American to make money out of anything, commercialise every event. There's Sex & the City tours in New York, remember the 'I shot J.R.' t-shirts during Dallas' hey day and of course the Gorbachev masks that were sold all over the place.
And how exquisite that a country of the former Eastern Block has adopted this far Western sense of capitalism.
I think we can safely say the Iron Curtain has definitely come down.

Seen from a different point of view, it confirms that many people knew where Karadzic was all the time. Painful for me that he is a poet. But poets are not above fault, so...
I have never waited so long for a man to be captured. Now to get Mladic and burp in the face of impunity.
So true, but I'm not surprised at all. Even with masses of people looking for a brutal murdering human being, you'll still find a large number helping him hide away. Helping, even only by not letting the world know where he is.
