Ciaran’s Peculier [sic] Blog

The arrest of that swine Radovan Karadzic must make the heart of every civilized human being burst with something like happiness. He may get his come-uppance now, confined to a nice comfortable Dutch cell with a TV and 24-hour access to soft drinks, unlike his victims. But the equestion is now being asked with unceasing vigour; where are the remaining war criminals, such as Ratko Mladic?

I can reveal that the Bosnian butcher is not in Belgrade or Belarus, but living as happy as Larrty in Cavan in the Irish Republic. True, he has assumed the name “Paddy Reilly” to blend in with the locals, but apart from occasionally wearing shades he has not bothered to change his appearance. He has been spotted at a number of local football matches, as well as some lectures on local history. In fact he seems to court publicity, appearing regularly in the local newspaper and even having a requests show on Northern Sound Radio. Since coming to Cavan he has joined a prominent political party and a very influential Catholic lay group, both of which are fully aware of his past. A spokesman for one has said: “Sure wasn’t he only doin’ what George Bush wants? killing them fuckin’ Muslims.” His friendship with local big-wigs has been repair with a nice job with Cavan County Council as Ethnic Control Officer. He has joined the local elite, knowing all “the right people”. He is untouchable, and the International Criminal Court will have the devil’s own job if it tries to extradite him.
