A just and righteous God

Brilliant. Radovan Karadzic, the man thought to be responsible for some of the bloodiest war crimes since WWII, has decided to defend himself and is convinced that he will win with the help of God. Bear in mind a lot of the ethnic cleansing was done in the name of religion

Not only that but it seems that he was protected by members of the Serb Orthodox Church

I don't know much about the Balkan war, but wasn't this Karadzic guy one of the warlords, responsible for the slaughter of thousands of muslims ?

So where's his fatwa ? Where are the outraged muslim protesters setting fire to his picture ? Where are the suicide bombers ?

Does anyone know if he ever got a fatwa ? Cuz if he didn't I'm really confused about muslim fundamentalists.

Writing critical books about Islam : Death to the infidel !
Making fun of Mo, the Prophet : Die !!! Dieee!!!!!
Actually murdering muslims by the thousands : Meh...no biggie.

Seriously, wtf ?

I refer you to the best assessment of this phenomenon I've ever seen:

Eddie Izard wrote:

But there are other mass murderers who got away with it. Stalin killed many millions, died in his bed. Well done, there. Pol Pot killed 1.7 million Cambodians, died under house arrest, aged seventy-two. Well done, indeed.
And the reason we let them get away with it is they killed their own people. And we're sort of fine with that. "Oh help yourself!", you know? "We've been trying to kill you for ages!" Hitler killed people next door. "Oh, stupid man. After a couple of years we won’t stand for that, will we?"

Randovan Karadzic was the Supreme Commander of the Bosnian Serb armed forces and President of the National Security Council of the Republika Srpska not just a common warlord. I have heard of no call by the Muslim world for a fatwa against him, perhaps because the Muslims he murdered were not Arab?

Perhaps they are satisfied he will be tried in International Court but that doesn't explain why there wasn't a call to eliminate him by the Muslim world since he was indicted back in 1995. Apparently he didn't use cartoons or pee on a Quran, he just murdered Muslims.
