..just before the war.
No matter who you are gotta admit these say alot about him.
"Six strategic Objectives of the Serbian people", -published on 12 May 1992 in the Republika Srpska's Official Gazette-, are the clearest manifestations that a plan existed to remove non-Serbs from power in all targeted areas and to essentially remove non-Serbs physically from targeted parts of Bosnia regardless of whether they formed the ethnic majority or not. Taken in the context of Karadzic's and others' increasing references to the annihilation of Muslims in Bosnia, and what followed, these documents may be seen as vehicles employed by the Bosnian Serb leadership to implement a genocidal plan. The first strategic goal -'separating the Serbian people from the other two ethnic communities"- is articulated by Karadzic in the 16th Assembly Session. "We cannot be in that unified state. We well know, where fundamentalism arrives, you cannot live any more. There's no tolerance. Serbs and Croats together by birth rate cannot control the intrusion of Islam in Europe, for in 5-6 years in a unified Bosnia, the Muslims would be over 51%. …This conflict was incited so that the Muslims would not exist"
On 12 October 1991, Karadzic had a lengthy discussion with Gojko Djogo. During the conversation, Karadzic repeated five times that the Muslims will disappear in case of war. Let me quote him partially: "They do not understand that there would be bloodshed and that the Muslim people would be exterminated. The deprived Muslims, who do not know where he (Izetbegovic) is leading, to what he is leading the Muslims, would disappear" or "They will disappear, that people will disappear from the face of the Earth"
On 13 October 1991, Karadzic speaks with Momcilo Mandic : "In just a couple of days, Sarajevo will be gone and there will be five hundred thousand dead, in one month Muslims will be annihilated in Bosnia and Herzegovina".
On 15 October 1991, Karadzic forecasts extermination of the Muslims in case of war in Bosnia. In a conversation with Miodrag Davidovic and Luka Karadzic, Radovan Karadzic says: "In the first place no one of their leadership would stay alive, in three, four hours they'd all be killed. They wouldn't have a chance to survive at all".
On the same day, in his famous televised speech in the Bosnian Assembly, -a public speech-, Karadzic says once again: "This is the road that you want Bosnia and Herzegovina to take, the same highway of hell and suffering that Slovenia and Croatia went through. Don't think you won't take Bosnia and Herzegovina to hell and Muslim people in possible extinction."
A clear genocidal intent on the part of the Bosnian Serb leadership in respect to Srebrenica was expressed throughout the war. During the 33rd Session of the RS Assembly, held on the 20th and 21st of July, 1993, Karadzic says that if the Bosnian Serb forces had entered Srebrenica, there would have been 'blood to the knees'. In 1994, Karadzic said in the context of the enclave: "If the international community treats us like a beast, then we will behave like a beast". He repeated a similar sentence in a meeting with British General Rupert Smith on 30 April 1995 ( if the international community treated Bosnian Serbs like beasts in a cage, that is how they would behave). According to the well known evidence given at the ICTY by late Miroslav Deronjic, Karadzic said to him on 9th July 1995 in Pale just after meeting with Jovica Stanisic: "Miroslav, all of them need to be killed…everything you can get your hands on". On the other hand, Mladic expressed openly such an intent. For instance, on 11 and 12 July 1995 at the Hotel Fontana meeting, Mladic offers the Bosnjaks the option of surviving or disappearing.
