The Hague: Lahey
During the course of the interview, Bokan revealed that he had been a close friend of Zeljko Raznatovic, the late Serb paramilitary leader known as “Arkan,” who had been assassinated in Belgrade in January. He told me pro-Milosevic; forces killed Arkan because he had grown close to Milo Djukanovic; the pro-Western president of Montenegro. “Arkan wanted out,” he told me. “He was starting a new life. He may even have been contemplating going to The Hague to testify.”

This also explains why so many elderly Muslim matrons were among the rape victims. This act makes sense as soon as one realizes that the Serbs committed rape not because they needed sex but because they wanted ethnically purified territories.

A few days after our arrival, I was walking with my interpreter—a young
Serb refugee from Sarajevo—in the former Muslim part of the city taking
pictures. An individual suddenly appeared out of a little cafe where he had obviously been drinking and ordered me to stop taking pictures. At the same time, he demanded in a threatening manner to see my identity document. All this happened in the presence of two local Bosnian Serb policemen, who nodded approvingly. Assuming by his demeanor that he was a local official, I obeyed. What was striking about him was that both his hands were covered by snake tattoos. When he saw my Greek passport his mood changed completely. A smile lit up his face and he said, “Greeks and Serbs are brothers!” He then embraced me and began pulling me toward the cafe where he had been sitting to offer me a drink. “Together we will fuck the Muslims!” he said gleefully.

He was asking my opinion about the situation in the Balkans. I was the only who argued that the Serbs alone could not be guilty. The Muslims argued that the Serbs raped twenty thousand women. “What the hell,” I asked him, “are the Serbs making war or love?” It was discovered that only two or three hundred Muslim women had been raped and that they had been taken to Germany to give birth.

According to Zeljko Raznatovic, the leader of Serb paramilitary forces better known as “Arkan”: “This ghost-state was created by the communist Tito in order to separate Greece from Serbia.” The Serb warlord said two hundred thousand Serbs lived in Macedonia, a fact that gave Serbia every right to take the part that belonged to it and was part of historic Serbia. “Of course,” he continued, “you also have the right to take what remains. It is your natural northern border. Whatever will remain from this state will belong to you.”
