The case I was thinking of was Timur. Small country, far away. And I
thought "the Chilenians" would think the same. But see also South Africa.
I dont think penal law is usefull in such situations, it is just revenge.
If you see politics like murder, larceny etc, there will be no politics
at all. It will be just the law of the strongest, see Iraq etc.

Much more important than penal law is to stop murders. See former YU.
It is so ridiculous, to punish Milosevic etc, see this Djinjic comedy, who
was one of the Karajic gang etc after giving him carte blache during the
war, many years,...........
