Slobodon Milosevic died of natural causes in his prison cell yesterday. Apparently, he suffered many heart problems and had requested going to Moscow for treatment (requests that were all refused).
I have to say... I wonder if he had purposely stopped taking his medication in order to kill himself in a way that makes him a martyr to the UN. I have NO evidence to support his, but it's the first thought that went into my head upon reading the article. He knew he wasn't going to be aquitted. He knew he was going to be on trial for the rest of his life. The odds of him dying while awaiting a verdict were actually quite high.
Just sayin....
Hey Isac. On BBC this morning, there was a report of a Dutch physician who had done some bloodwork on Milosevic (Rot in hell) and his assessment was that Milosevic had been taking a drug to counteract the heart medicines he was taking so that he would get to go to Russia for medical treatment, as he had been requesting.

Really? Wow. I thought I was being a crazed conspiracy theorist or something.... SLobo's ( I agree, may he be tormented in a lake of fire) whole personality cult was built on a kind of insane hyper-victimhood, so it just wouldn't surprise me.
Thanks for the heads up!

I forgot to clarify: the Dutch doctor's assertion was prior to Slobo's death. Not part of the autopsy...
