Karadzic extradited to The Hague By DUSAN STOJANOVIC, Associated Press Writer 9 minutes ago BELGRADE, Serbia - Authorities extradited ex-Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic to the Netherlands to face genocide charges before the U.N. war crimes tribunal on Wednesday, hours after a violence-tinged protest by thousands of his supporters in downtown Belgrade. U.N. spokesman Liam McDowall confirmed Karadzic was transferred to the U.N. detention center near The Hague, where he will stand trial. A jet with Serbian government markings landed at the Rotterdam airport Wednesday morning, AP Television News footage showed. The plane with Serbian government markings taxied into a hangar, out of view of reporters and television cameras before anyone disembarked. Less than an hour later, a helicopter landed behind the high wall of the detention center while another helicopter hovered overhead. Two black minivans drove through the prison gates moments earlier. The Serbian government said in a statement issued early Wednesday that its justice ministry had issued a decree that allowed his handover to the U.N. court, despite a violence-tinged protest hours before by thousands of his supporters. Karadzic is accused by the tribunal of masterminding the 1995 slaughter of 8,000 Muslim men and boys in the Bosnian city of Srebrenica, Europe's worst massacre since World War II. He is also charged with spearheading the three-year siege of Sarajevo that left 10,000 people dead. Read more: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080730/ap_on_re_eu/serbia_...

Just don't pick the name "Bush" or "Cheney" and there's a chance of survival.
