It occurred to me the other day after the arrest of Radovan Karadzic that there used to be a regular apologist for the Serbian's atrocities who used to appear on Newsnight and any other discussion programme as the "UK Representative of the Bosnian Serbs".
This chap, clearly British educated from his clear English accent and most likely a UK citizen used to justify the actions of the Serbs, deny the atrocities and tell the most awful lies on behalf of the Serbian armed forces.
I cannot remember his name, but you have to ask where he is now.

I think Malcolm Rifkind is still in the Commons and Douglas Hurd is in the Lords...
there were plenty of UK politicians who effectively acted as apologists for the Bosnian Serb actions - David Owen, Douglas Hurd, Dame Neville-Jones, Alan Clark...
Didn't he go on to help out with the less savoury LibDem by-election campaigns?
