Actually, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner
Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic -- who spearheaded the revolt that toppled former President Slobodan Milosevic in October 2000 -- was assassinated Wednesday by gunmen who ambushed him outside the government complex, police sources said.Djindjic, 50, died in a Belgrade hospital after having been shot in the abdomen and back.
This guy had a lot of enemies. He handed over Milosevic to the UN; he targeted organized crime; he was going after Mladic; he supported closer ties with the West over Russia. There were a lot of people who wouldn't mind seeing him dead.
The key question is who got to him.
