Given the nature of her political activism, she should really have done a modicum of historical research before speaking publicly about such a sensitive topic.

I appreciate the Guardian newspaper, but it constantly asks for voluntary financial contributions from its readers. Its editor-in-chief has an annual salary of £602,000, which makes her a lot richer than I am, or than most Guardian readers. Why should we subsidise people who are richer than we are ?

Coverage of the death of Ratko Mladic, like the previous coverage of him while he was alive, mostly misses a key point: he was not himself a senior architect of the war and genocide in Bosnia that began in 1992. He was initially a relative nobody; a mere colonel at the start of the war in Croatia.
