And though he tries to be very elaborate, nobody will need a dictionary to get the meaning of his text. It is poor analysis, and it is quite dangerous: it supports that moralistic view assuming it would change anything to hand someone to the war tribunal. The Hague is maybe more of a placebo for the American public mind (i.e. a moralistic, politically motivated institution, and dubious on a legal basis). And yes, with Kostunica nationalism still rules - but we have to wait for more evidence to see what that will mean. There are many ways to interpret "nationalism" - Americas beloved "patriotism" is but one of them.
