KOSOVO-METOHIJA
UN - ARRESTS OF KLA MEMBERS NOT CONNECTED WITH KOSOVO PROTECTION CORPS
PRISTINA, Feb 1 (Tanjug) - United Nations Kosovo-Metohija administration
UNMIK deputy chief Charles Brayshaw said in Pristina on Thursday that the
arrests of three former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army (UCK) are not
in any way connected with the Kosovo
Protection Corps (KPC).
The arrested persons have been charged with grave crimes committed during
the period from September 1998 until June 1999. These were personal actions
and a sufficient number of testimonies have been taken from witnesses, so
that it is up to the court to decide whether they are gulty or not,
Brayshaw said during a visit to the KPC.
An international judge in the province yesterday set an additional 30 days
of detention and ordered the opening of an investigation on war crimes for
the three Kosovo Albanians who were arrested in Pristina and Podujevo on
Monday, an UNMIK spokesman said.
Thousands of ethnic Albanians protested against these arrests in Pristina
and Podujevo these days.
BRUSSELS SHOULD CONSIDER POLITICAL SOLUTION FOR KOSOVO-METOHIJA
BERLIN, Feb 1 (Tanjug) - It is necessary that Brussels deals with the issue
of a long-term political solution for Kosovo and Metohija, which will not
be realized without a European perspective, a source close to new United
Nations envoy in the southern Serbian province
Michael Steiner has said.
The source said on Thursday that it was important for Brussels to do this
in order to quell nationalistic tendencies in the region and to assess
relativistically the issue of the independence of this territory.
The unnamed UN representative said one of Steiner's main tasks would be to
establish stable authorities in the province.
The period until the autonomy of the province is defined cannot be
specified, so that the two-year postponement asked by Serbian Prime
Minister Zoran Djindjic is unrealistic, the official said.
The international community will not withdraw from the province if Kosovo
is not given a European perspective, the source said.
Steiner will begin his term in office in Pristina in mid-February. He has
completed consultations with European Union foreign policy commissioner
Chris Patten in Brussels.
THAQI PARTY WARNS INTERNATIONAL AUTHORITIES
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (B92) The Democratic Party of Kosovo this evening
accused International civilian and military authorities in the province
that they were endangering safety and the political situation in Kosovo by
arresting former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
Party president Hashim Thaqi is a former leader of the Liberation Army,
which was disbanded after the arrival of international peacekeepers in 1999.
The party claimed that by arresting the three, UNMIK and KFOR were
destabilising the situation in Kosovo.
PROTESTERS BLOCK CENTRAL PRISTINA
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (B92) More than two thousand Albanian demonstrators have
blocked the centre of Pristina for the second consecutive day protesting at
the arrest of former leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
UN police and KFOR troops arrested the three Kosovo Albanians on Tuesday,
charging them with war crimes committed in 1998 and 1999.
They are accused of abductions assaults and murders of Albanians from the
Podujevo area who did not agree with Kosovo Liberation Army policies.
ALBANIANS FIRE AT SERBIAN SCHOOL PUPILS
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (Beta) - Members of Kosovo police arrested two Kosovo
Albanians suspected of having fired at pupils of a Serbian school in
Plemetina, KFOR announced on Jan. 31.
It was reported that the school in Plemetina, attended by some 100 Serbian
children, had been fired at on Jan. 31 at around noon, from a car carrying
four passengers.
The incident was probably provoked by a conflict between local Serb and
Albanian children who had thrown stones at each other, reads the KFOR
statement, adding that one of the arrested Albanians was the father of one
of the boys who threw stones. A gun was found in the arrested persons' car.
KFOR added that some 70 Serbs gathered in front of the school afterwards,
but were dispersed by KFOR in a bid to "quell disturbances."
ONLY HUMANITARIAN CONVOYS ABLE TO REACH SERB ENCLAVE IN KOSOVO
STRPCE, Kosovo, Jan 31 (Tanjug) - KFOR will provide an escort only for the
so-called humanitarian convoys going to Strpce, the Serb enclave in Kosovo,
US KFOR Colonel Larry Saul told Tanjug on Thursday.
Since last week, when there were problems, peace was violated and the radio
and television described it as violence, Col. Saul set out adding that KFOR
then halted escorts for some convoys out of security reasons, but would
continue providing the same for humanitarian convoys and medical cases.
Strpce, the biggest Serb enclave in Kosovo with 12,000 Serb inhabitants,
has practically been sealed off from the rest of the world for the past
nine days after regular convoys were halted due to incidents and KFOR
violence.
Serb sources in Strpce confirmed to Tanjug today that on Tuesday KFOR took
Jelica Andjelkovic, 60, to the US Bondsteel base where this elderly woman
was interrogated for three hours, after which she was returned to Strpce.
On Jan 22, during Serb demonstarations in Strpce, Jelica was in the front
lines expressing her pain for the loss of her husband, son and son-in-law,
kidnapped by the ethnic Albanian terrorists two years ago and who were
never seen again.
In Bondsteel, Jelica was interrogated by a woman officer who was very rough
and threatened her not to appear at protests ever again.
The KFOR and UNMIK police photographed all the people in the front ranks of
the Jan 22 protest in Strpce, and now many fear new arrests.
AFTER TWO YEARS, SERBIAN REPRESENTATIVE IN PRISTINA MUNICIPALITY
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (Beta) - Zorica Velic was appointed on Jan. 31 as
Pristina municipality vice-president. It is the first time following a two
year boycott that a Serb has beed appointed to a managerial position in the
municipality.
After the appointment, Velic told the press in Pristina "I am happy to
become vice-president of a municipality and a town in which I was born."
In the Pristina municipality, Zorica Velic will represent Serbs who, after
the 1999 war in Kosovo, mostly live in near-by villages. She announced she
would engage in the democratization of civic life in the municipality.
Last year, UNMIK appointed three Serbs for MPs to the Pristina city
council. At the constitutive session, Albanian MPs alleged that Serbian
representative Slavko Trajkovic had committed war crimes in Kosovo, leading
to Serb representatives ending their attendance at sessions.

KOSOVO-METOHIJA
UN - ARRESTS OF KLA MEMBERS NOT CONNECTED WITH KOSOVO PROTECTION CORPS
PRISTINA, Feb 1 (Tanjug) - United Nations Kosovo-Metohija administration
UNMIK deputy chief Charles Brayshaw said in Pristina on Thursday that the
arrests of three former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army (UCK) are not
in any way connected with the Kosovo
Protection Corps (KPC).
The arrested persons have been charged with grave crimes committed during
the period from September 1998 until June 1999. These were personal actions
and a sufficient number of testimonies have been taken from witnesses, so
that it is up to the court to decide whether they are gulty or not,
Brayshaw said during a visit to the KPC.
An international judge in the province yesterday set an additional 30 days
of detention and ordered the opening of an investigation on war crimes for
the three Kosovo Albanians who were arrested in Pristina and Podujevo on
Monday, an UNMIK spokesman said.
Thousands of ethnic Albanians protested against these arrests in Pristina
and Podujevo these days.
BRUSSELS SHOULD CONSIDER POLITICAL SOLUTION FOR KOSOVO-METOHIJA
BERLIN, Feb 1 (Tanjug) - It is necessary that Brussels deals with the issue
of a long-term political solution for Kosovo and Metohija, which will not
be realized without a European perspective, a source close to new United
Nations envoy in the southern Serbian province
Michael Steiner has said.
The source said on Thursday that it was important for Brussels to do this
in order to quell nationalistic tendencies in the region and to assess
relativistically the issue of the independence of this territory.
The unnamed UN representative said one of Steiner's main tasks would be to
establish stable authorities in the province.
The period until the autonomy of the province is defined cannot be
specified, so that the two-year postponement asked by Serbian Prime
Minister Zoran Djindjic is unrealistic, the official said.
The international community will not withdraw from the province if Kosovo
is not given a European perspective, the source said.
Steiner will begin his term in office in Pristina in mid-February. He has
completed consultations with European Union foreign policy commissioner
Chris Patten in Brussels.
THAQI PARTY WARNS INTERNATIONAL AUTHORITIES
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (B92) The Democratic Party of Kosovo this evening
accused International civilian and military authorities in the province
that they were endangering safety and the political situation in Kosovo by
arresting former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
Party president Hashim Thaqi is a former leader of the Liberation Army,
which was disbanded after the arrival of international peacekeepers in 1999.
The party claimed that by arresting the three, UNMIK and KFOR were
destabilising the situation in Kosovo.
PROTESTERS BLOCK CENTRAL PRISTINA
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (B92) More than two thousand Albanian demonstrators have
blocked the centre of Pristina for the second consecutive day protesting at
the arrest of former leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
UN police and KFOR troops arrested the three Kosovo Albanians on Tuesday,
charging them with war crimes committed in 1998 and 1999.
They are accused of abductions assaults and murders of Albanians from the
Podujevo area who did not agree with Kosovo Liberation Army policies.
ALBANIANS FIRE AT SERBIAN SCHOOL PUPILS
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (Beta) - Members of Kosovo police arrested two Kosovo
Albanians suspected of having fired at pupils of a Serbian school in
Plemetina, KFOR announced on Jan. 31.
It was reported that the school in Plemetina, attended by some 100 Serbian
children, had been fired at on Jan. 31 at around noon, from a car carrying
four passengers.
The incident was probably provoked by a conflict between local Serb and
Albanian children who had thrown stones at each other, reads the KFOR
statement, adding that one of the arrested Albanians was the father of one
of the boys who threw stones. A gun was found in the arrested persons' car.
KFOR added that some 70 Serbs gathered in front of the school afterwards,
but were dispersed by KFOR in a bid to "quell disturbances."
ONLY HUMANITARIAN CONVOYS ABLE TO REACH SERB ENCLAVE IN KOSOVO
STRPCE, Kosovo, Jan 31 (Tanjug) - KFOR will provide an escort only for the
so-called humanitarian convoys going to Strpce, the Serb enclave in Kosovo,
US KFOR Colonel Larry Saul told Tanjug on Thursday.
Since last week, when there were problems, peace was violated and the radio
and television described it as violence, Col. Saul set out adding that KFOR
then halted escorts for some convoys out of security reasons, but would
continue providing the same for humanitarian convoys and medical cases.
Strpce, the biggest Serb enclave in Kosovo with 12,000 Serb inhabitants,
has practically been sealed off from the rest of the world for the past
nine days after regular convoys were halted due to incidents and KFOR
violence.
Serb sources in Strpce confirmed to Tanjug today that on Tuesday KFOR took
Jelica Andjelkovic, 60, to the US Bondsteel base where this elderly woman
was interrogated for three hours, after which she was returned to Strpce.
On Jan 22, during Serb demonstarations in Strpce, Jelica was in the front
lines expressing her pain for the loss of her husband, son and son-in-law,
kidnapped by the ethnic Albanian terrorists two years ago and who were
never seen again.
In Bondsteel, Jelica was interrogated by a woman officer who was very rough
and threatened her not to appear at protests ever again.
The KFOR and UNMIK police photographed all the people in the front ranks of
the Jan 22 protest in Strpce, and now many fear new arrests.
AFTER TWO YEARS, SERBIAN REPRESENTATIVE IN PRISTINA MUNICIPALITY
PRISTINA, Jan. 31 (Beta) - Zorica Velic was appointed on Jan. 31 as
Pristina municipality vice-president. It is the first time following a two
year boycott that a Serb has beed appointed to a managerial position in the
municipality.
After the appointment, Velic told the press in Pristina "I am happy to
become vice-president of a municipality and a town in which I was born."
In the Pristina municipality, Zorica Velic will represent Serbs who, after
the 1999 war in Kosovo, mostly live in near-by villages. She announced she
would engage in the democratization of civic life in the municipality.
Last year, UNMIK appointed three Serbs for MPs to the Pristina city
council. At the constitutive session, Albanian MPs alleged that Serbian
representative Slavko Trajkovic had committed war crimes in Kosovo, leading
to Serb representatives ending their attendance at sessions.

BASIS FOR NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE IMF DETERMINED
BELGRADE, Jan. 31 (Beta) - The Yugoslav government determined on Jan. 31
the basis for negotiations between the Yugoslav delegation and the IMF
mission on results of the standby arrangement and a new three-year
financial arrangement.
The closing of a new arrangement will enable the realization of the
agreement reached with the Paris Club of creditors on the writing-off of
the majority of the Yugoslav debt. The arrangement will also mean support
to economic and structural reforms, the Federal Information Bureau said in
an announcement.
Yugoslav Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Economic Relations
Miroljub Labus will lead the Yugoslav delegation in talks with the IMF.
The government has also set the basis for negotiations with the
International Association for Development, for the purpose of reaching an
agreement on a development loan for the modernization of the Yugolav
customs service , that is, Serbia and Montenegro.
A report on the increase of EU donations to EUR120 million, out of which
EUR75 million have already been used, was also adopted.
YUGOSLAVIA-SPAIN:YUGOSLAVIA BELONGS TO EUROPEAN UNION
BELGRADE, Jan 31 (Tanjug) - Yugoslav Prime Minister Dragisa Pesic and
Spanish Ambassador Mariano Jesus Garcia Munoz discussed possibilities for
promoting bilateral political and economic ties and for Spain, which
currently presides the European Union, to speed up Yugoslavia's access to
the European integrations.
"Our strategic foreign policy goal is to join the European Union," Pesic
said and added that in this process Spain could play an important role as
the EU president.
Both sides voiced their interest in bilateral economic cooperation and said
that their respective governments had taken a series of concrete measures
aimed at creating a legislative
infrastructure that would intensify this cooperation. Contacts among
political officials are also stimulating in this context, Pesic said and
invited Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar to visit
Yugoslavia.
Spain supports the preservation of the Yugoslav federation, which it
specially stressed in the programme it plans to carry out during its term
as EU president, and an indication of this commitment is the fact that
Yugoslavia is the only country specifically mentioned in the programme.
Ambassador Munoz expects EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana to give his
full contribution to this end, the Yugoslav prime minister's office said in
a statement.

MEETING OF LONDON :
MESSAGE OF SUPORT OF THE FRENCHSPEAKING SECTION OF THE
ICDSM
Dear comrades
Many regrets no to be with you this day !
Greatings from our militants of Belgium, France and
Switzerland to all of you, and particularly to
Christopher Black and all the British team of CDSM.
A few words first to remember you the Symposium
organised in next 2 march in Berlin by our comrades of
the Germanspeaking Section of ICDSM, with our
participation.
Since its creation by the NATO, the so-called
?International Criminal Tribunal for former
Yugoslavia? (ICTY) is a war machine leaded against the
Serbian People and its defenders, in Yugoslavia and in
Republika Srpska (Bosnia). Directly financed by NATO,
the ICTY and his slavish magistrates abiding by the
orders of Washington, is a shame to all the magistracy
and the international judicial world.
The proceedings they use ? secret charging, anonymous
accounts without any proofs, kidnapping of the accused
regardless of the international law, automatic
presumption of guiltiness of the accused,
investigations in accusation and not in defence, and
so on. ? remind us of the sinister inquisition and
would deserve a non-admissibility of the charging in
any independent court of law , starting with those in
the US.
The detention conditions in the ICTY jails are also
outrageous. Especially the medical help brought to the
prisoners , the behaviour of the medical staff of the
ITCY prison is also a shame to all the medical world.
These are instances that are enough as proofs.
The moral loneliness of the Serbian prisoners, victims
of an incessant manhunt, is terrible. Adding to a
detention duration abnormally long and contrary to the
disposals of the European Convention of Human Rights.
It?s why we must, as a duty, help them and support
them.
The president MILOSEVIC is today the first of these
Serbian prisoners.
With the extradition of MILOSEVIC, the pro--American
muppets who govern Yugoslavia and Serbia since the
rampant coup of last October 2000 have just thrown
definitely the mask.
They have exchanged Milosevic against a thick handful
of dollars, as they had already arrest him in April
2000 for the same motives. Thirty coins of Judas for
the Serbian traitors !
The DOS raped the constitution that forbidden the
extradition of the national Yugoslavian while adopting
an unconstitutional decree. The DOS raped the right
while transgressing the decision of the Yugoslavian
supreme constitutional Court that had just suspended
this decree. The DOS raped the formal guarantees of
the Yugoslavian and international right that open ways
of appeal to all menaced person of extradition
(procedures legally hired by Milosevic). The DOS
raped the democratic rules that confide to the
parliament, where the Kollaboses of the DOS are
minority, the voting of a constitutional modification.
Yugoslavia is not anymore a state of right. It is a
?bananas? republic, governed by a junta solded to the
imperialism and the colonialisme of NATO and USA.
Milosevic has not been extradited but removed and
delivered illegally to the TPY, organ of repression of
the NATO.
Today, the president Milosevic is the first resistant
to the New World Order and the dictatorship of the
NATO.
Today, all free men and womlen must mobilize
themselves to defend the Yugoslavian president : WE
ARE ALL OF MILOSEVICS !
Luc MICHEL, President of the
Frenchspeaking Section of ICDSM.

MEETING OF LONDON :
OPEN LETTER FROM IRELAND
Fraternal greetings from Mullingar, Republic of
Ireland.
On the eve of the Public Meeting 1st February 2002
focussing on NATO
responsibility for war crimes in the Balkans and
NATO's diversionary
tactic of apportioning blame to the victims of their
hi tech barbaric
onslaughts we note that a recent survey in England has
ascertained the fact, if fact
it is in this largely fictionalised world, that vast
numbers of people in
Britain no longer choose to tune in to either radio or
television news
bulletins be those bulletins either of the news in
brief kind or fully extended
bulletins.
This, as can be imagined, is causing serious concerns
amongst the ranks
of the manipulators of public opinion whom we prefer
to define as "the
deceivers." French writer and Director of the Ecole
speciale d'architecture Paul
Virilio is the author of sixteen books on sociological
and political subjects
with these books to include War and Cinema, Open Sky
and Strategy of
Deception. The last named book is a trenchant
denunciation of the perpetration of
the Kosovo war laying bare the lie that the West's
intervention in the
Balkans was founded on ethical and humanitarian
grounds.
Virilio, to quote from notes accompanying Strategy of
Deception, has
discerned a sinister innovation in the methods of
waging war:
territorial space is being replaced by orbital space
in which a system of global
telesurveillance is linked to the destructive power of
bombers and
missiles: governments, the military and the media are
becoming part of a seamless
and self justifying process linked by new information
and arms
technologies. The author makes the claim that the
media has a "license to lie." If it
is that the media through its remorseless propagation
of lies and
distortions of the truth eventually allienates more
and more sectors of the
community then the ruling class which is totally
dependent on the media for
proselytising on its behalf and most particularly on
behalf of waging
war for profit will be in very serious trouble indeed.
The need to disseminate alternative information in a
world crying out
for such information has never been greater.
Thank you, whilst on this subject, to the Campaign To
Defend Slobodan
Milosevic and to the PCN-NCP service de presse for
sending us in these
post Strangelovian times and so regularly information
of that very kind.
Good luck for the meeting and we hope there will be a
good attendance.
We hope to make it along to a future meeting.
With our sincere thanks and very best wishes.
June and John Kelly

"JUDGE IS ENGLISH, PROSECUTOR IS ENGLISH..." :
MILOSEVIC DEFIES HIS NATO JUDGES
Via Workers World News Service
Reprinted from the Jan. 24, 2002
issue of Workers World newspaper
By John Catalinotto
Former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic continued
his
defiant stand in an appearance before the NATO-backed
International Criminal Tribunal for the Former
Yugoslavia
(ICTY) in The Hague Jan. 9.
The court reacted as it has in the past. It censored
Milosevic's statements.
The Yugoslav leader has from the beginning refused to
recognize the authority of the ICTY and has said he
will
represent himself during the proceedings.
Under pressure from Washington and other NATO powers,
the
United Nations created the ICTY in 1993. It has
jurisdiction
only over crimes carried out in Yugoslavia by people
from
that region. It refuses to try U.S. or other NATO
officials
for ordering the bombing of civilian targets during
the 1999
war.
The great majority of charges have been brought
against
Serbian people, either those who lived in
Bosnia-Herzegovina
or officials in the Yugoslav or Serbian governments.
The
tribunal barely addresses the many horrific acts
committed
against Serbs during the decade-long civil wars that
fragmented what had been a multinational, socialist
country
based on a federation of six republics. The
dismembering of
Yugoslavia was long a goal of European and U.S.
capital,
which now have the upper hand in the area.
The trial on a set of charges against Milosevic
relating to
Kosovo is scheduled to begin on Feb. 12.
At the Jan. 9 hearing, Judge Richard May restricted
sharply
what Milosevic was allowed to say, repeatedly cutting
him
off.
Milosevic began, "To be precise, concerning what has
been
said today: almost everything we've heard shows that,
in the
guise of having a trial, what is planned here is to
carry
out an operation to reverse scene and culprit. This is
aimed
at producing a fabricated justification for the crimes
committed during the NATO aggression against my
country and
my people.
"Indeed, this 'indictment' itself constitutes one of
the
proofs that what I affirm is true. Because all the
so-called
misdeeds supposedly committed by the armed forces of
Yugoslavia, which I had the honor to command, are,
according
to the 'indictment,' supposed to have occurred during
precisely the time of the NATO aggression against my
country.
"The intention is obviously to portray those who
defended
their families, children, thresholds, homes and
homeland as
villains, criminals, evil people. Whereas those who
traveled
thousands of kilometers to destroy those homes in the
night,
to kill innocent people, to destroy maternity wards,
hospitals, bridges, railways, trains, who collaborated
with
the Albanian terrorists-that those people, responsible
for a
huge number of victims and enormous material damage,
are
good, are correct, and should have the support of
international public opinion.
"To compound this absurdity..."
At this point the court interrupted Milosevic, turning
off
his microphone. Judge May insisted that Milosevic
limit his
comments to trial procedure. In the coverage of the
trial,
however, the big-business media applied their own
twist to
the news, dredging up all the old political charges
against
the Yugoslav leader and the Serbian people.
Milosevic tried to continue. "I want to confirm that
you
have not offered a single argument in response to the
very
clear legal facts I have presented regarding the
illegality
of this 'court,' established by a resolution of a
Security
Council that has no legislative nor judiciary power
and that
could hardly transfer prerogatives it does not have,
since
as lawyers you very well know that a right which one
does
not posses cannot be transferred.
"In any case...." Here the court again turned off his
microphone and Judge May demanded the former president
censor his comments.
President Milosevic tried once more: "Well, if you're
going
to limit the questions I can raise, then regarding the
procedure I would say the following: according to the
natural definition, which applies to any court, it
must be
neutral and impartial. And look at this 'court': the
indictment is based on allegations provided by the
English
intelligence service; the judge is English; the
prosecutor
is English; the Amicus Curiae is English; and I ..."
Here the court again cut off his microphone and
adjourned
the hearing.
=============================================
BACK IN YUGOSLAVIA, LAYOFFS AND STRIKES
Back in Yugoslavia, living conditions for the working
class
and for most of the population have continued to
worsen
since the U.S.-manipulated September 2000 election and
the
October 2000 coup that followed pushed Milosevic's
Socialist
Party of Serbia out of office.
Anyone who believed that the new Yugoslav government
would
receive more aid and economic help from the
imperialist
powers if it arrested Milosevic and turned him over to
NATO
has by now been sorely disillusioned. Even the puppet
Serbian Premier Zoran Djindjic has complained publicly
that
the Western leaders have reneged on their promises of
aid.
Unemployment is now up above 50 percent. In the first
week
of January, the announcement that four big Yugoslav
banks
would close threatened 8,500 more workers with
layoffs. The
news that Beogradska Banka, Jugobanka, Investbanka and
Beobanka would close provoked workers' protests, with
more
than 1,000 employees locking themselves in the banks'
offices in Belgrade, Krusevac, Nis and Vranje.
Trade unions say that for every 1,000 employees laid
off,
another 5,000 jobs are in jeopardy.
The Yugoslav government forced the closure of the four
banking giants to mark the launch of broad, World
Bank-
sponsored changes to the country's financial sector
that
will allow deeper U.S. and West European penetration
of the
Yugoslav economy.

MEETING OF LONDON :
MESSAGE OF SUPORT OF THE FRENCHSPEAKING SECTION OF THE
ICDSM
Dear comrades
Many regrets no to be with you this day !
Greatings from our militants of Belgium, France and
Switzerland to all of you, and particularly to
Christopher Black and all the British team of CDSM.
A few words first to remember you the Symposium
organised in next 2 march in Berlin by our comrades of
the Germanspeaking Section of ICDSM, with our
participation.
Since its creation by the NATO, the so-called
?International Criminal Tribunal for former
Yugoslavia? (ICTY) is a war machine leaded against the
Serbian People and its defenders, in Yugoslavia and in
Republika Srpska (Bosnia). Directly financed by NATO,
the ICTY and his slavish magistrates abiding by the
orders of Washington, is a shame to all the magistracy
and the international judicial world.
The proceedings they use ? secret charging, anonymous
accounts without any proofs, kidnapping of the accused
regardless of the international law, automatic
presumption of guiltiness of the accused,
investigations in accusation and not in defence, and
so on. ? remind us of the sinister inquisition and
would deserve a non-admissibility of the charging in
any independent court of law , starting with those in
the US.
The detention conditions in the ICTY jails are also
outrageous. Especially the medical help brought to the
prisoners , the behaviour of the medical staff of the
ITCY prison is also a shame to all the medical world.
These are instances that are enough as proofs.
The moral loneliness of the Serbian prisoners, victims
of an incessant manhunt, is terrible. Adding to a
detention duration abnormally long and contrary to the
disposals of the European Convention of Human Rights.
It?s why we must, as a duty, help them and support
them.
The president MILOSEVIC is today the first of these
Serbian prisoners.
With the extradition of MILOSEVIC, the pro--American
muppets who govern Yugoslavia and Serbia since the
rampant coup of last October 2000 have just thrown
definitely the mask.
They have exchanged Milosevic against a thick handful
of dollars, as they had already arrest him in April
2000 for the same motives. Thirty coins of Judas for
the Serbian traitors !
The DOS raped the constitution that forbidden the
extradition of the national Yugoslavian while adopting
an unconstitutional decree. The DOS raped the right
while transgressing the decision of the Yugoslavian
supreme constitutional Court that had just suspended
this decree. The DOS raped the formal guarantees of
the Yugoslavian and international right that open ways
of appeal to all menaced person of extradition
(procedures legally hired by Milosevic). The DOS
raped the democratic rules that confide to the
parliament, where the Kollaboses of the DOS are
minority, the voting of a constitutional modification.
Yugoslavia is not anymore a state of right. It is a
?bananas? republic, governed by a junta solded to the
imperialism and the colonialisme of NATO and USA.
Milosevic has not been extradited but removed and
delivered illegally to the TPY, organ of repression of
the NATO.
Today, the president Milosevic is the first resistant
to the New World Order and the dictatorship of the
NATO.
Today, all free men and womlen must mobilize
themselves to defend the Yugoslavian president : WE
ARE ALL OF MILOSEVICS !
Luc MICHEL, President of the
Frenchspeaking Section of ICDSM.

MEETING OF LONDON :
OPEN LETTER FROM IRELAND
Fraternal greetings from Mullingar, Republic of
Ireland.
On the eve of the Public Meeting 1st February 2002
focussing on NATO
responsibility for war crimes in the Balkans and
NATO's diversionary
tactic of apportioning blame to the victims of their
hi tech barbaric
onslaughts we note that a recent survey in England has
ascertained the fact, if fact
it is in this largely fictionalised world, that vast
numbers of people in
Britain no longer choose to tune in to either radio or
television news
bulletins be those bulletins either of the news in
brief kind or fully extended
bulletins.
This, as can be imagined, is causing serious concerns
amongst the ranks
of the manipulators of public opinion whom we prefer
to define as "the
deceivers." French writer and Director of the Ecole
speciale d'architecture Paul
Virilio is the author of sixteen books on sociological
and political subjects
with these books to include War and Cinema, Open Sky
and Strategy of
Deception. The last named book is a trenchant
denunciation of the perpetration of
the Kosovo war laying bare the lie that the West's
intervention in the
Balkans was founded on ethical and humanitarian
grounds.
Virilio, to quote from notes accompanying Strategy of
Deception, has
discerned a sinister innovation in the methods of
waging war:
territorial space is being replaced by orbital space
in which a system of global
telesurveillance is linked to the destructive power of
bombers and
missiles: governments, the military and the media are
becoming part of a seamless
and self justifying process linked by new information
and arms
technologies. The author makes the claim that the
media has a "license to lie." If it
is that the media through its remorseless propagation
of lies and
distortions of the truth eventually allienates more
and more sectors of the
community then the ruling class which is totally
dependent on the media for
proselytising on its behalf and most particularly on
behalf of waging
war for profit will be in very serious trouble indeed.
The need to disseminate alternative information in a
world crying out
for such information has never been greater.
Thank you, whilst on this subject, to the Campaign To
Defend Slobodan
Milosevic and to the PCN-NCP service de presse for
sending us in these
post Strangelovian times and so regularly information
of that very kind.
Good luck for the meeting and we hope there will be a
good attendance.
We hope to make it along to a future meeting.
With our sincere thanks and very best wishes.
June and John Kelly

"JUDGE IS ENGLISH, PROSECUTOR IS ENGLISH..." :
MILOSEVIC DEFIES HIS NATO JUDGES
Via Workers World News Service
Reprinted from the Jan. 24, 2002
issue of Workers World newspaper
By John Catalinotto
Former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic continued
his
defiant stand in an appearance before the NATO-backed
International Criminal Tribunal for the Former
Yugoslavia
(ICTY) in The Hague Jan. 9.
The court reacted as it has in the past. It censored
Milosevic's statements.
The Yugoslav leader has from the beginning refused to
recognize the authority of the ICTY and has said he
will
represent himself during the proceedings.
Under pressure from Washington and other NATO powers,
the
United Nations created the ICTY in 1993. It has
jurisdiction
only over crimes carried out in Yugoslavia by people
from
that region. It refuses to try U.S. or other NATO
officials
for ordering the bombing of civilian targets during
the 1999
war.
The great majority of charges have been brought
against
Serbian people, either those who lived in
Bosnia-Herzegovina
or officials in the Yugoslav or Serbian governments.
The
tribunal barely addresses the many horrific acts
committed
against Serbs during the decade-long civil wars that
fragmented what had been a multinational, socialist
country
based on a federation of six republics. The
dismembering of
Yugoslavia was long a goal of European and U.S.
capital,
which now have the upper hand in the area.
The trial on a set of charges against Milosevic
relating to
Kosovo is scheduled to begin on Feb. 12.
At the Jan. 9 hearing, Judge Richard May restricted
sharply
what Milosevic was allowed to say, repeatedly cutting
him
off.
Milosevic began, "To be precise, concerning what has
been
said today: almost everything we've heard shows that,
in the
guise of having a trial, what is planned here is to
carry
out an operation to reverse scene and culprit. This is
aimed
at producing a fabricated justification for the crimes
committed during the NATO aggression against my
country and
my people.
"Indeed, this 'indictment' itself constitutes one of
the
proofs that what I affirm is true. Because all the
so-called
misdeeds supposedly committed by the armed forces of
Yugoslavia, which I had the honor to command, are,
according
to the 'indictment,' supposed to have occurred during
precisely the time of the NATO aggression against my
country.
"The intention is obviously to portray those who
defended
their families, children, thresholds, homes and
homeland as
villains, criminals, evil people. Whereas those who
traveled
thousands of kilometers to destroy those homes in the
night,
to kill innocent people, to destroy maternity wards,
hospitals, bridges, railways, trains, who collaborated
with
the Albanian terrorists-that those people, responsible
for a
huge number of victims and enormous material damage,
are
good, are correct, and should have the support of
international public opinion.
"To compound this absurdity..."
At this point the court interrupted Milosevic, turning
off
his microphone. Judge May insisted that Milosevic
limit his
comments to trial procedure. In the coverage of the
trial,
however, the big-business media applied their own
twist to
the news, dredging up all the old political charges
against
the Yugoslav leader and the Serbian people.
Milosevic tried to continue. "I want to confirm that
you
have not offered a single argument in response to the
very
clear legal facts I have presented regarding the
illegality
of this 'court,' established by a resolution of a
Security
Council that has no legislative nor judiciary power
and that
could hardly transfer prerogatives it does not have,
since
as lawyers you very well know that a right which one
does
not posses cannot be transferred.
"In any case...." Here the court again turned off his
microphone and Judge May demanded the former president
censor his comments.
President Milosevic tried once more: "Well, if you're
going
to limit the questions I can raise, then regarding the
procedure I would say the following: according to the
natural definition, which applies to any court, it
must be
neutral and impartial. And look at this 'court': the
indictment is based on allegations provided by the
English
intelligence service; the judge is English; the
prosecutor
is English; the Amicus Curiae is English; and I ..."
Here the court again cut off his microphone and
adjourned
the hearing.

Larisa Kritskaja, Svetlana Ccernjak
REMZI KLARK: ?POSSTOVATI ZAKONE PRAVOSUDJA?
Bivssi drzzavni tuzzilac SAD odbacuje
americcku politiku sile
Dobiti intervju od Remzija Klarka nije nissta
laksse nego od predsednika: svaki minut njegovog
vremena je rasporedjen. I to za dan, nedelju, mesec, godinu
dana unapred. Plus nepredvidjeni dogadjaji i
okolnosti. Rodio se u Dalasu 1927. godine. Ratovao je u Koreji.
Potom - univerzitet u Teksasu, Ccikagu,
posao pravnika. Sa 34 godine je pomoccnik drzzavnog tuzzioca u
Kenedijevoj administraciji, sa 40 -
drzavni tuzilac u Dzonsonovoj administraciji. Dao je ostavku u
znak protesta protiv rata u Vijetnamu u koji
je otissao radi prikupljanja dokumenata o americckim
bombardovanjima i civilnim zzrtvama. Ono ssto je
tamo video toliko ga je potreslo da je od tada Klarkov zzivot -
neprekidan niz procesa, protesta i nastupa u
zasstitu prava. Remzi Klark je bio u Iraku, Jugoslaviji,
Palestini, Istoccnom Timoru, Nikaragvi, Panami, kod
ustanika u Kolumbiji. Tokom 70-ih godina je istupao s
optuzzbama protiv Pinocceovog rezzima u Ccileu.
Pokrenuo je organizaciju ?Medicina za Irak?. U Njujorku je
otvarao tribunal ?Anti-NATO? za istrazzivanje
zloccina vlade SAD i njenih saveznika protiv iracckog naroda.
Bio je u Jugoslaviji u dane bombardovanja -
dokumentujucci njihove posledice. Delegacija Medjunarodnog
akcionog centra koji je organizovao
dopremala je u Jugoslaviju lekove, bavila se prikupljanjem
ccinjenica i dokumenata koji su potom ussli u
knjigu ?NATO na Balkanu?. Kasnije, u danima izruccivanja
predsednika Jugoslavije Milossevicca
Hasskom tribunalu, Klark je istupao pred narodom na trgu u
Beogradu, pokussavajucci da omete
sklapanje posla izmedju SAD i nove vlade Jugoslavije. Remzi
Klark je sada pravni konsultant
Milossevicca.
- Ssta se dessavalo u Jugoslaviji tokom
bombardovanja, ssta vam se najvisse urezalo u seccanje.
- Ljudi su stajali na mostovima izazivajucci vatru
na sebe. Na hiljade ljudi su se okupljale na trgovima i
pevale: ?Bombardujte!.. Ako smete!?
Onda je Jugoslavija, dovedena do krajnje
iscrpljenosti, kapitulirala....
Optimista sam. Ali, saznavssi za izruccenje
predsednika Milossevicca Hasskom tribunalu, po prvi put
u ccitavom svom zzivotu osetio sam da gubim optimizam.
Medjutim, kada sam video desetine hiljada gnevnih
demonstranata sa zastavama, moj optimizam je vaskrsao i
pomislio sam: ?Ovi ljudi cce i to prevazicci!?
Kosstunica mi je rekao da cce ?jednom svakako
napisati knjigu o nezakonitosti Hasskog tribunala?.
Nisam ga odgovarao. Poccutavssi, dodao je: ?Mi pokussavamo da
prezzivimo... nekako?. - ?Da prezzivite?
Fiziolosski je to sasvim mogucce. Ali, valjda shvatate da nema
visse ni Jugoslavije ni Srbije?? - rekao sam.
?Slazzem se sa vama, - odgovorio je Kosstunica. - Za to je
potrebna... ccast?.
- Sad se vecc retko kad govori o Milosseviccu, o
Hasskom tribunalu. Onoliko dogadjaja: 11.
septembar, Avganistan, Pakistan i Indija... Ali, sudjenje u
Hagu cce se ipak odrzzati. Ono nije ni zamissljeno
kao jednokratna akcija. Zar ne?
- Vassington je taj tribunal formirao u jeku rata u
Jugoslaviji. To je postalo realna pretnja pravosudju.
Tada sam, 1992. godine, napisao protest koji je possto ga je
federalni sud odbacio, podnet Vrhovnom sudu
Sjedinjenih Drzzava na razmatranje. Protest je bio motivisan
krssenjem normi Ustava SAD o podeli vlasti:
zakon zabranjuje sudsko razmatranje predmeta koji se ticcu
politicckih razmimoilazzenja.
Vlada SAD je, stvarajucci tribunal u Hagu,
ignorisala ne samo sopstveni Ustav, vecc i Povelju
Organizacije Ujedinjenih Nacija. U njoj nigde neccete nacci ni
recci o dopustivosti formiranja bilo kakvog
?medjunarodnog kriviccnog suda? kao rezultat politicckog
konflikta ili, ssto je joss gore, kao rezultat rata.
Zato je tribunal u Hagu nezakonit. I pokussaj njegovog
poredjenja s Nirnbersskim procesom nad
nacisticckom Nemacckom nije nissta drugo do propaganda.
Statut Nirnbersskog tribunala donet je 25. oktobra
1945. godine, mesec dana pre stupanja na snagu
Povelje OUN. Zemlje koje su se ujedinjavale u Organizaciju
Ujedinjenih Nacija tada su postavile uslov: ?Statut
buducceg Tribunala postoji samostalno i necce biti ni u kakvoj
vezi s Poveljom Organizacije Ujedinjenih
Nacija?. Dakle, Nirnbersski vojni tribunal je delovao nezavisno
i bez moguccnosti pritiska politicckih sila
spolja na njegove odluke. To je prvo.
Drugo. Nirnbersski sud je predstavljao inicijativu
ccetiri nacije, dok je u formiranju tribunala u Hagu
uccestvovala jedna jedina zemlja - Sjedinjene Americcke
Drzzave.
Ccinjenica funkcionisanja Hasskog tribunala
stvorenog uz uccesscce OUN otvara joss vecce
moguccnosti za SAD u sprovodjenju bilo kog zakona sile, bez
obzira na bilo kakve medjunarodne norme
pravosudja. To su shvatali i Generalna skupsstina OUN i Savet
bezbednosti, ali niti su imali niti imaju kako
odvazznosti, tako i dovoljne nezavisnosti za to da ustanu
protiv toga.
Za SAD nema nicceg neobiccnog u unisstavanju
nepozzeljnih predsednika. Svet je dobio Mobutua
zato ssto smo ubili Lumumbu, i svet je dobio Pinoccea possto
smo ubili Aljendea. I tako dalje. Taj scenarijum
je svetu odavno poznat. Ali zato prodaje predsednika za novac
da bi se dobile namirnice - takvog presedana
u istoriji joss nije bilo.
Tokom rata je bilo nekoliko pokussaja da se
predsednik Jugoslavije ubije. Ne sumnjajte u to: liccno
sam video njegovu kuccu sravnjenu sa zemljom posle direktnog
pogotka ?pametne? bombe. Dve njegove
kancelarije unisstene su na isti naccin. Onda su pokussali da
iznajme ubicu obeccavssi 5 miliona dolara za
Milosseviccevu glavu. Nije im uspelo. Onda - sud u Hagu.
Dugi niz godina zloupotrebe sopstvene snage doveo
nas je do potpunog razaranja ccitavog sudskog
sistema. I sada moramo opet da se uccimo posstovanju zakona.
Zloccini SAD u ratu s Jugoslavijom su
dokumentovani tako da ima nade da cce se pojaviti pravi
medjunarodni organ pravosudja i da cce vlada
SAD biti pozvana na odgovornost i osudjena u skladu s
medjunarodnim zakonom. Unisstili smo Jugoslaviju
samo zato ssto je bila poslednje ostrvo socijalizma u Evropi.
Godinama smo bin Ladena snabdevali oruzzjem
i novcem - sve do pada Sovjetskog Saveza. Sada znamo ssta da se
radi s Dagestanom i ssest bivssih
sovjetskih republika u kojima zzive muslimani, u sluccaju
konflikta s Rusijom.
Ako smo postigli uspeh u Bosni, zassto nam ne bi
posslo za rukom i sa Cceccenijom? Strategija je
ista: muslimani protiv Slovena...
Danas nam govore o dva izvora pretnje bezbednosti
SAD. Prvi je ono ssto je preostalo od dva rata
(Drugog svetskog i hladnog): Kuba, Severna Koreja i - donedavno
- Jugoslavija. Drugi su ?islamski
fundamentalisti?. SSta su to ?fundamentalisti?, niko ne zna.
Sloveni su najbrojnija etniccka grupa u Evropi: ima
ih 300 miliona, dok muslimana na ccitavoj
zemaljskoj kugli nema visse od milijardu i po. Deo nasse
strategije je da se tako izvede da te ?pretnje nassoj
bezbednosti? medjusobno ratuju sve dok se medjusobno ne
istrebe. Tako sada na Kosovu svakodnevno
imamo napade muslimana na Srbe. Joss jedno, novo zzarisste rata
je Makedonija.
Izlaz iz tog bezumlja vidim samo u narodnom
jedinstvu, jer smo u suprotnom svi mi osudjeni na
?prezzivljavanje?. Verujem u narod. U svom jedinstvu to je
nesavladiva snaga.
Sada se odvija konsolidacija i naoruzzavanje
Evropske unije. (Otvoreno ccu recci da nissta ne mozze
biti gore od NATO-a!) Stvaranje evropske armije mozze barem
doprineti uspostavljanju kakve-takve
ravnotezze. NATO je pesnica americcke ekonomije. Evropske banke
i korporacije necce visse da se mire s
tim. Sada cce i one imati svoju pesnicu - nezavisnu evropsku
armiju. A tu vecc poccinje ?takmiccenje?.
Mozzda je to poccetak bezumlja, ali uzdam se u njihovo umecce u
postizanju kompromisa.
- Kad smo vecc kod bezumlja, mislite li da je
pretnja Iraku realna?
- Veliki je rizik udara na Irak. Kongres
Sjedinjenih Drzzava je vecc predsedniku na njegov zahtev
izglasao ovlassccenja za ssirenje vojne akcije protiv Iraka:
392 - ?za? i 12 - ?protiv?. Tako da rat s Irakom
postaje sasvim realan.
- 11. decembra 2001. godine ste povodom Iraka
uputili pismo ambasadorima i ministrima inostranih
poslova zemalja koje ulaze u sastav Sveta bezbednosti OUN. Da
li biste nassim ccitaocima izneli njegov
osnovni sadrzzaj?
- Hvala vam na tom pitanju. Ljudi u svetu moraju
znati ssta se dessava i ne smeju ccutati. Na Irak je od
17. januara do 28. februara 19991. godine, po priznanju
Pentagona, bacceno 88.500 tona bombi.
Bombardovani su objekti od zzivotne vazznosti: vodni
rezervoari, skladissta namirnica, industrijski kompleksi,
verski centri i prosvetne ustanove.
Irak je zbog ekonomskih sankcija izgubio preko 1,5
miliona svojih gradjana. Preko polovinu njih ccine
deca koja nisu dozzivela peti rodjendan. Te sankcije - koje je
Savet bezbednosti OUN bio prinudjen da
donese pod pritiskom vlade SAD - direktno su krssenje
konvencije ?O genocidu? jer vode svesnom
unisstavanju civilnog stanovnisstva Iraka.
Sve komisije koje su po mandatu OUN poseccivale
Irak u poslednjih deset godina svedoccile su o
neljudskim patnjama naroda. Najodvazzniji eksperti tih komisija
otvoreno su protestovali protiv politike
sankcija i inspekcija koju su Sjedinjene Drzzave nametnule
Iraku. Vlada SAD ccak i program ?Nafta za
hranu? koji su OUN donele tek krajem 1996. godine, posle
medjunarodnog protesta protiv unisstavanja
naroda putem ekonomskog gussenja, koristi za svoje politiccke
manipulacije.
Stav Sjedinjenih Drzzava ozbiljno je kompromitovao
organizaciju kao ssto je OUN. Savet bezbednosti
OUN je, premda i pod prinudom, uccestvovao u zloccinima SAD
protiv mira i ccoveccanstva. Premda i pod
prinudom, ali kriv je za genocid.
Sada SAD bombarduju Irak kad god im se prohte.
Pritom su prinudjene da putem neprekidne
propagande satanizuju kako Sadama Huseina, tako i ccitav
iraccki narod, koristecci za to sredstva javnog
informisanja potpuno zavisna od vlade SAD.
Americcka propaganda je propaganda rasizma,
propaganda mrzznje i lazzi. Jucce je to bila
antisrpska kampanja, danas je antimuslimanska i tako dalje.
Nabrojaccu zemlje u kojima je politika SAD posle
Drugog svetskog rata dovela do destabilizacije:
Koreja, Vijetnam, Kambo?a, Nikaragva, Dominikanska Republika,
Filipini, Liberija, Kuba, Gvatemala,
Granada, Palestina, Liban, Iran, Somalija, Sudan, Haiti,
Salvador, Honduras, Angola, Hrvatska, Jugoslavija,
Sijera Leone, Irak, Indonezija, Avganistan. Ko je sledecci?
Glasila razmatraju mogucce kandidature.
Medjutim, imamo li ijednu ccinjenicu koja dokazuje krivicu
Iraka za bilo kakav zloccin protiv ccoveccanstva
tokom ccitave poslednje decenije? Mozzemo li izneti issta ssto
bi iole bilo nalik na zloccine Sjedinjenih
Drzzava protiv te zemlje? Cilj americcke politike je
uspostavljanje kontrole i vladavine na Bliskom Istoku, u
Persijskom zalivu i Centralnoj Aziji.
Mislim da bi bilo izuzetno vazzno kada bi Rusija
protestovala. I to ne samo na diplomatskom nivou ili u
sstampi, nego putem Saveta bezbednosti i Generalne skupsstine
OUN. Rusija je jedina zemlja koja mozze
stati na put SAD koje danas igraju ulogu narkomana opijenog
sopstvenim ?uspesima?.
- Ssta mislite o predsedniku Rusije Vladimiru
Putinu?
- Nama je ovde u Americi neverovatno slozzeno da
analiziramo radnje ruskog predsednika i tim pre
da izvlaccimo bilo kakve zakljuccke: mi nemamo verodostojnih
informacija niti ih mozzemo imati.
- Zassto? Kako to objassnjavate?
- Mislim da je stvar u tome ssto Sjedinjene Drzzave
ne zzele da ccuju nissta pozitivno o vassoj zemlji.
Kod nas ccuju samo one u Rusiji koji i dalje insistiraju na
takozvanim ?reformama? usmerenim, kao ssto je
poznato, na nass sopstveni procvat i genocid ruskog naroda. Sve
ostale informacije se blokiraju, iako se
ccuvaju u sefovima za aktivno misleccu agenturu s visokim
ekonomskim obrazovanjem.
Medjutim, ono ssto sam u stanju da analiziram
svedocci o tome da u najvazznijim pitanjima
predsednik Putin deluje onako kako mora delovati snazzan lider
koji brani interese svoje zemlje i svog
naroda. U spoljnoj politici, u najbitnijem za SAD pitanju novog
americckog sistema PRO, on afirmisse
nezavisnost Rusije. To govori da Rusija i dalje stoji na
stanovisstvu zasstite mira na Zemlji.
Po mom missljenju, delovanje predsednika Putina u
medjunarodnoj politici je najbolji i jedini mogucci
izbor u okolnostima u koje je njegova zemlja dovedena. Ccini mi
se da mu i u unutrassnjoj politici, premda uz
velike potesskocce, uspeva da postepeno blokira vecc reklo bi
se nekontrolisanu pljaccku zemlje i zaustavi
osiromassenje ruskog naroda. On mora da u najtezzim okolnostima
donosi odluke i deluje. I u tim
okolnostima on se nedvosmisleno ponassa kao snazzan i pouzdan
lider.
On ima vrlo pametan stav po pitanju NATO-a,
proglassavajucci tu gangstersku massinu za ?saborca i
druga? Rusije i samim tim neutralissucci NATO makar za izvesno
vreme. Rusiji je potrebno vreme da se
digne na noge i orijentisse u onome ssto se dessava.
- A savez sa Sjedinjenim Drzzavama u ?novom ratu s
terorizmom?? Mislite da je i to pametna igra,
dobitak za Rusiju?
- Ne, ne mislim. Brine me stav predsednika Ruske
Federacije po tom pitanju, possto vidim da je tu
upao u postavljenu klopku: shvatanje i otklanjanje pravih
uzroka katastrofe koju Rusija dozzivljava odlazze se
zbog medjunacionalnih ratova unutar zemlje, a sada i van njenih
granica. To je izum rasisticcke zemlje kao
ssto su SAD a za zemlje sa vissenacionalnim stanovnisstvom, na
primer, Jugoslaviju i Rusiju. Jer, to je
zvaniccan stav Vassingtona: ?Neka se sami potamane?. ?Etniccka
ccissccenja? - tragedija Jugoslavije -
sada su se okrenula protiv njenog slovenskog stanovnisstva.
Sjedinjenim Drzzavama je posslo za rukom da
od Rusije otkinu ssest bivssih republika Sovjetskog Saveza sa
svim njihovim prirodnim bogatstvima. Ta
politika nacionalne mrzznje imala je za rezultat to da je pod
udar dospeo ogroman broj Rusa koji zzive na
teritoriji tih bivssih republika.
Ruska Federacija je sada saveznik SAD i zajedno s
njima cce ratovati ?protiv islama?. Medjutim,
saveznisstvo sa SAD predstavlja izuzetno veliku opasnost za
Rusku Federaciju. Ono mozze dovesti do
konfrontacije zzitelja Rusije s okolnim muslimanskim zemljama i
sa muslimanima koji zzive u samoj Rusiji. To
potvrdjuje ?ispravnost? politike Vassingtona (?neka se sami
potamane?) i pruzzicce neprocenjivu pomocc
SAD u njihovoj geopoliticckoj agresiji.
Zato mi se ccini da Rusija sada treba da ulozzi
neverovatne napore da bi povratila prijateljstvo i
poverenje muslimana.
- Ssta mislite, hocce li Rusija saccuvati
suverenitet i nezavisnost?
- Verujem da hocce. Mozzda bi bolje bilo recci:
nadam se... Bio sam mnogo puta u Rusiji. Ruski narod
poseduje veliku snagu. I njegova volja za nezavisnost nema
analoga u istoriji ccoveccanstva.
... Ovih dana sam bio na probi Kirovskog baleta u
karnegi-holu. Ruska muzika! Ruski muziccari!..
Koliku snagu ti ljudi imaju! Treba slussati rusku muziku da bi
se shvatilo koliko je taj narod velik. Jako volim
rusku muziku. Zato i govorim o snazi tog naroda...
Tessko da ljudi na Zapadu shvataju do kolike bede i
ponizzenja je taj narod doveden. To bi u nama
moralo izazvati uzzasavanje, a ne likovanje povodom ?uspeha?
nasse hajke protiv Rusije joss od poccetka
prosslog veka!
Ali, narod cce se dicci. Ja to posmatram s velikom
radossccu. Vidim prozrenje, zapazzam rastucce
kretanje u smeru stvaranja vecce federacije - to jest obnove
onoga ssto je tako neodgovorno bilo srusseno.
Zemlja postepeno prevazilazi stanje defetizma u kom je toliko
ranjiva.
Strani kapital, ekonomska agresija nijednoj zemlji
nisu doneli nissta osim postepenog i potpunog
osiromassenja, potpune zavisnosti od tog kapitala.
Smatram da cce period ekonomske recesije koji sada
u medjunarodnim razmerama napreduje,
nesumnjivo pomocci Rusiji da opet pronadje sebe. Zassto? Pa
zato ssto ekonomija Rusije ne zavisi od onih
vesstacckih ccinilaca na kojima se temelji ekonomija SAD ili
Japana, na primer. A obnova unisstene
ekonomije Rusije zalog je njenog preporoda u koji, kao ssto
rekoh, verujem. Ili - hoccu da se nadam...
- Kada su SAD bombardovale Srbiju ccesto se moglo
ccuti: ?Rusija je sledecca!? Da li je rat izmedju
SAD i Rusije mogucc?
- Mislim da nije. Ali, mogucce su stotine
takozvanih ?malih ratova? koji cce nas drzzati pod stalnom
pretnjom onog nuklearnog. Karakter rata se menja posle pojave
vazduhoplovne super-sile. Ubijanje iz
vazduha bespomoccnog stanovnisstva ili naoruzzanog protivnika
(koji je, ispostavlja se, u doticcnom sluccaju
isto toliko bespomoccan) - to je ono ?novo lice? rata kojim se
SAD danas toliko ponose. Niko se u
Sjedinjenim Drzzavama ne optereccuje brojanjem civilnog
stanovnisstva ubijenog u takvim bombardovanjima.
I armija SAD ratuje ?bez gubitaka?... To je sramota, ali se
zato ?isplati?!
Mislim da je svetu danas veoma potrebna jaka i
nezavisna Rusija, possto je ruski narod jedini u stanju
da zaustavi tu opijenost ubijanjem koja u SAD traje od trenutka
zavrssetka hladnog rata. Hladni rat nije bio
Vassingtonu smetnja za monstruozne zloccine protiv
ccoveccanstva, ali je snazzan Sovjetski Savez
spreccavao SAD od agresivnih ccinova krupnih razmera. A sada se
sve ?mozze?: smenjivati nepozzeljne
vlade, organizovati atentate na predsednike, mozze se
bombardovati sve ssto se krecce, mozze se
naoruzzavati Izrael da unisstava Palestince i optuzzivati
Arafat za ?terorizam?...
Rusija je jedina nacija sposobna da sprecci razvoj
genocidnog scenarijuma. Narod Kine nije u stanju
da odigra tu ulogu. Kineski narod je dospeo u drugu klopku -
takmiccenja za ekonomsku mocc. To - ako bude
srecce - vodi ka snu o super-sili. To cce, sa svoje strane,
nastaviti politiku Sjedinjenih Drzzava uperenu na
unisstavanje malih i bespomoccnih nacija a u cilju njihove
eksploatacije.
Zato liccno ja verujem (ili hoccu da se nadam) da
cce narod Rusije - zbog svog internacionalnog
naccina missljenja i istorijske prosslosti - nassavssi sebe,
uspeti da postane centar odvraccanja za SAD i to
cce se blagotvorno odraziti na stanje ccitavog sveta.
- Da dotaknemo temu globalizma i antiglobalista.
- Sigurno je da je u toku napad na globalizaciju.
Ljudi su pocceli da shvataju da je globalizacija
smrtonosna za njihove kulture. I oni ne zzele da sve ssto je
ccoveccanstvo milenijumima stvaralo zamene za
uliccna kolica s hamburgerima.
Nedavno sam ccuo od jednog komentatora koji je
branio ideju eksploatacije nafte na Aljasci:
?Nazivajucci taj proces ?istrazzivanje?, dajete mi na znanje da
ste njegov pristalica, a ako govorite o
?pravljenju naftnih bussotina? - jasno je da ste protiv?. Kako
da Sjedinjene Drzzave, kojima pripada 75 %
sredstava MMF i STO, drugaccije nazovu ekonomski napad na tudje
zemlje i narode koji joss nisu uspeli da
sasvim prekopaju i unakaze svoje zemlje bogate prirodnim
resursima? Stari termin ?kolonizacija? mozzda se
necce svideti, pogotovo onim narodima koji su vecc u nekoliko
navrata ?globalizovani? u cilju usavrssavanja
civilizacije. Globalizacija je eufemizam i nissta drugo. Morao
bi se dicci protest protiv lazzi koja stoji iza njega.
I - na zaprepassccenje umornog sveta - demonstracije protiv
globalizacije izvele su na ulice na hiljade
uglavnom mladih. Raduje me njihova masovna pojava: to govori o
zdravoj prirodi ccoveka.
Globalizacija nema nikakvu drugu motivaciju osim
profita. Danas, u uslovima pada ekonomskih
pokazatelja u SAD, rat, i to po moguccstvu veccih razmera,
postaje sve potrebniji poljuljanoj americckoj
ekonomiji. A za to se ne mozze smisliti nissta bolje od ?borbe
s terorizmom?. To je jedna strana medalje.
S druge strane, dok taj rat nije zavrssen, recesija
kocci globalizaciju. A da ne govorim o tome da cce
Sjedinjene Drzzave morati da terorissu ne samo spoljnog
neprijatelja, nego i sopstveno stanovnisstvo,
gradjane Amerike. Nedavno je ?Njujork-Tajms? objavio cclanak
pod naslovom ?Zemlji su potrebni zatvori?.
Ispostavlja se da nam nisu potrebne ni sskole, ni bolnice. Ali
cce zato broj zatvorenika premassiti sadassnji
broj od dva miliona... A sve to u situaciji kada kod nas pre
recesije 48 % gradjana nije imalo pristup
medicinskim uslugama, a odredjeni procenat svrssenih djaka
nassih sskola ne ume, kako se pokazalo, ni da
ccita ni da pisse.
Nass zadatak je da ljudima objasnimo ssta je to u
stvari globalizacija. To je odricanje od nacionalne
nezavisnosti. To je odricanje naroda od svojih milenijumima
formiranih kultura. To je uskraccivanje nassoj
deci moguccnosti da grade svoj zzivot na nivou ekonomske
dovoljnosti. I ako svet to joss nije shvatio na
primeru svih zemalja Latinske Amerike, Afrike, malih i velikih
ostrva Zapadne i Istoccne polulopte cciji narodi
ginu u borbi protiv stogodissnje globalizacije njihovih zemalja
i kultura; ako napad na slovensko stanovnisstvo
Balkana i na muslimanski narod Iraka, bombardovanje iraccke
dece i glad dece Avganistana u vama joss
uvek ne izazivaju zdravi gnev, onda i treba da nas zgaze zbog
nasse potpune gradjanske neodgovornosti. Ali,
ja sam optimista. I vidim da protiv globalizacije sve visse
protestuju zasstitnici ccovekove okoline, farmeri,
verski lideri, studenti, djaci, radniccki odbori, drusstvene
organizacije... To je ustanak.
- Verujete li da taj ustanak necce biti najsurovije
ugussen? ?Zemlji su potrebni zatvori?...
- Zasad ne mogu recci da je pokret protiv
globalizacije stekao snagu sposobnu da se odupre
surovosti apologeta globalizma. Ali sam uveren da je on vecc
izmakao kontroli i da cce se u povoljnom sticaju
okolnosti, kao ssto je kriza na trzzisstima, konsolidovati.

REMZI KLARK: ?POSSTOVATI ZAKONE PRAVOSUDJA?
Bivssi drzzavni tuzzilac SAD odbacuje
americcku politiku sile
Dobiti intervju od Remzija Klarka nije nissta
laksse nego od predsednika: svaki minut njegovog
vremena je rasporedjen. I to za dan, nedelju, mesec, godinu
dana unapred. Plus nepredvidjeni dogadjaji i
okolnosti. Rodio se u Dalasu 1927. godine. Ratovao je u Koreji.
Potom - univerzitet u Teksasu, Ccikagu,
posao pravnika. Sa 34 godine je pomoccnik drzzavnog tuzzioca u
Kenedijevoj administraciji, sa 40 -
drzavni tuzilac u Dzonsonovoj administraciji. Dao je ostavku u
znak protesta protiv rata u Vijetnamu u koji
je otissao radi prikupljanja dokumenata o americckim
bombardovanjima i civilnim zzrtvama. Ono ssto je
tamo video toliko ga je potreslo da je od tada Klarkov zzivot -
neprekidan niz procesa, protesta i nastupa u
zasstitu prava. Remzi Klark je bio u Iraku, Jugoslaviji,
Palestini, Istoccnom Timoru, Nikaragvi, Panami, kod
ustanika u Kolumbiji. Tokom 70-ih godina je istupao s
optuzzbama protiv Pinocceovog rezzima u Ccileu.
Pokrenuo je organizaciju ?Medicina za Irak?. U Njujorku je
otvarao tribunal ?Anti-NATO? za istrazzivanje
zloccina vlade SAD i njenih saveznika protiv iracckog naroda.
Bio je u Jugoslaviji u dane bombardovanja -
dokumentujucci njihove posledice. Delegacija Medjunarodnog
akcionog centra koji je organizovao
dopremala je u Jugoslaviju lekove, bavila se prikupljanjem
ccinjenica i dokumenata koji su potom ussli u
knjigu ?NATO na Balkanu?. Kasnije, u danima izruccivanja
predsednika Jugoslavije Milossevicca
Hasskom tribunalu, Klark je istupao pred narodom na trgu u
Beogradu, pokussavajucci da omete
sklapanje posla izmedju SAD i nove vlade Jugoslavije. Remzi
Klark je sada pravni konsultant
Milossevicca.
- Ssta se dessavalo u Jugoslaviji tokom
bombardovanja, ssta vam se najvisse urezalo u seccanje.
- Ljudi su stajali na mostovima izazivajucci vatru
na sebe. Na hiljade ljudi su se okupljale na trgovima i
pevale: ?Bombardujte!.. Ako smete!?
Onda je Jugoslavija, dovedena do krajnje
iscrpljenosti, kapitulirala....
Optimista sam. Ali, saznavssi za izruccenje
predsednika Milossevicca Hasskom tribunalu, po prvi put
u ccitavom svom zzivotu osetio sam da gubim optimizam.
Medjutim, kada sam video desetine hiljada gnevnih
demonstranata sa zastavama, moj optimizam je vaskrsao i
pomislio sam: ?Ovi ljudi cce i to prevazicci!?
Kosstunica mi je rekao da cce ?jednom svakako
napisati knjigu o nezakonitosti Hasskog tribunala?.
Nisam ga odgovarao. Poccutavssi, dodao je: ?Mi pokussavamo da
prezzivimo... nekako?. - ?Da prezzivite?
Fiziolosski je to sasvim mogucce. Ali, valjda shvatate da nema
visse ni Jugoslavije ni Srbije?? - rekao sam.
?Slazzem se sa vama, - odgovorio je Kosstunica. - Za to je
potrebna... ccast?.
- Sad se vecc retko kad govori o Milosseviccu, o
Hasskom tribunalu. Onoliko dogadjaja: 11.
septembar, Avganistan, Pakistan i Indija... Ali, sudjenje u
Hagu cce se ipak odrzzati. Ono nije ni zamissljeno
kao jednokratna akcija. Zar ne?
- Vassington je taj tribunal formirao u jeku rata u
Jugoslaviji. To je postalo realna pretnja pravosudju.
Tada sam, 1992. godine, napisao protest koji je possto ga je
federalni sud odbacio, podnet Vrhovnom sudu
Sjedinjenih Drzzava na razmatranje. Protest je bio motivisan
krssenjem normi Ustava SAD o podeli vlasti:
zakon zabranjuje sudsko razmatranje predmeta koji se ticcu
politicckih razmimoilazzenja.
Vlada SAD je, stvarajucci tribunal u Hagu,
ignorisala ne samo sopstveni Ustav, vecc i Povelju
Organizacije Ujedinjenih Nacija. U njoj nigde neccete nacci ni
recci o dopustivosti formiranja bilo kakvog
?medjunarodnog kriviccnog suda? kao rezultat politicckog
konflikta ili, ssto je joss gore, kao rezultat rata.
Zato je tribunal u Hagu nezakonit. I pokussaj njegovog
poredjenja s Nirnbersskim procesom nad
nacisticckom Nemacckom nije nissta drugo do propaganda.
Statut Nirnbersskog tribunala donet je 25. oktobra
1945. godine, mesec dana pre stupanja na snagu
Povelje OUN. Zemlje koje su se ujedinjavale u Organizaciju
Ujedinjenih Nacija tada su postavile uslov: ?Statut
buducceg Tribunala postoji samostalno i necce biti ni u kakvoj
vezi s Poveljom Organizacije Ujedinjenih
Nacija?. Dakle, Nirnbersski vojni tribunal je delovao nezavisno
i bez moguccnosti pritiska politicckih sila
spolja na njegove odluke. To je prvo.
Drugo. Nirnbersski sud je predstavljao inicijativu
ccetiri nacije, dok je u formiranju tribunala u Hagu
uccestvovala jedna jedina zemlja - Sjedinjene Americcke
Drzzave.
Ccinjenica funkcionisanja Hasskog tribunala
stvorenog uz uccesscce OUN otvara joss vecce
moguccnosti za SAD u sprovodjenju bilo kog zakona sile, bez
obzira na bilo kakve medjunarodne norme
pravosudja. To su shvatali i Generalna skupsstina OUN i Savet
bezbednosti, ali niti su imali niti imaju kako
odvazznosti, tako i dovoljne nezavisnosti za to da ustanu
protiv toga.
Za SAD nema nicceg neobiccnog u unisstavanju
nepozzeljnih predsednika. Svet je dobio Mobutua
zato ssto smo ubili Lumumbu, i svet je dobio Pinoccea possto
smo ubili Aljendea. I tako dalje. Taj scenarijum
je svetu odavno poznat. Ali zato prodaje predsednika za novac
da bi se dobile namirnice - takvog presedana
u istoriji joss nije bilo.
Tokom rata je bilo nekoliko pokussaja da se
predsednik Jugoslavije ubije. Ne sumnjajte u to: liccno
sam video njegovu kuccu sravnjenu sa zemljom posle direktnog
pogotka ?pametne? bombe. Dve njegove
kancelarije unisstene su na isti naccin. Onda su pokussali da
iznajme ubicu obeccavssi 5 miliona dolara za
Milosseviccevu glavu. Nije im uspelo. Onda - sud u Hagu.
Dugi niz godina zloupotrebe sopstvene snage doveo
nas je do potpunog razaranja ccitavog sudskog
sistema. I sada moramo opet da se uccimo posstovanju zakona.
Zloccini SAD u ratu s Jugoslavijom su
dokumentovani tako da ima nade da cce se pojaviti pravi
medjunarodni organ pravosudja i da cce vlada
SAD biti pozvana na odgovornost i osudjena u skladu s
medjunarodnim zakonom. Unisstili smo Jugoslaviju
samo zato ssto je bila poslednje ostrvo socijalizma u Evropi.
Godinama smo bin Ladena snabdevali oruzzjem
i novcem - sve do pada Sovjetskog Saveza. Sada znamo ssta da se
radi s Dagestanom i ssest bivssih
sovjetskih republika u kojima zzive muslimani, u sluccaju
konflikta s Rusijom.
Ako smo postigli uspeh u Bosni, zassto nam ne bi
posslo za rukom i sa Cceccenijom? Strategija je
ista: muslimani protiv Slovena...
Danas nam govore o dva izvora pretnje bezbednosti
SAD. Prvi je ono ssto je preostalo od dva rata
(Drugog svetskog i hladnog): Kuba, Severna Koreja i - donedavno
- Jugoslavija. Drugi su ?islamski
fundamentalisti?. SSta su to ?fundamentalisti?, niko ne zna.
Sloveni su najbrojnija etniccka grupa u Evropi: ima
ih 300 miliona, dok muslimana na ccitavoj
zemaljskoj kugli nema visse od milijardu i po. Deo nasse
strategije je da se tako izvede da te ?pretnje nassoj
bezbednosti? medjusobno ratuju sve dok se medjusobno ne
istrebe. Tako sada na Kosovu svakodnevno
imamo napade muslimana na Srbe. Joss jedno, novo zzarisste rata
je Makedonija.
Izlaz iz tog bezumlja vidim samo u narodnom
jedinstvu, jer smo u suprotnom svi mi osudjeni na
?prezzivljavanje?. Verujem u narod. U svom jedinstvu to je
nesavladiva snaga.
Sada se odvija konsolidacija i naoruzzavanje
Evropske unije. (Otvoreno ccu recci da nissta ne mozze
biti gore od NATO-a!) Stvaranje evropske armije mozze barem
doprineti uspostavljanju kakve-takve
ravnotezze. NATO je pesnica americcke ekonomije. Evropske banke
i korporacije necce visse da se mire s
tim. Sada cce i one imati svoju pesnicu - nezavisnu evropsku
armiju. A tu vecc poccinje ?takmiccenje?.
Mozzda je to poccetak bezumlja, ali uzdam se u njihovo umecce u
postizanju kompromisa.
- Kad smo vecc kod bezumlja, mislite li da je
pretnja Iraku realna?
- Veliki je rizik udara na Irak. Kongres
Sjedinjenih Drzzava je vecc predsedniku na njegov zahtev
izglasao ovlassccenja za ssirenje vojne akcije protiv Iraka:
392 - ?za? i 12 - ?protiv?. Tako da rat s Irakom
postaje sasvim realan.
- 11. decembra 2001. godine ste povodom Iraka
uputili pismo ambasadorima i ministrima inostranih
poslova zemalja koje ulaze u sastav Sveta bezbednosti OUN. Da
li biste nassim ccitaocima izneli njegov
osnovni sadrzzaj?
- Hvala vam na tom pitanju. Ljudi u svetu moraju
znati ssta se dessava i ne smeju ccutati. Na Irak je od
17. januara do 28. februara 19991. godine, po priznanju
Pentagona, bacceno 88.500 tona bombi.
Bombardovani su objekti od zzivotne vazznosti: vodni
rezervoari, skladissta namirnica, industrijski kompleksi,
verski centri i prosvetne ustanove.
Irak je zbog ekonomskih sankcija izgubio preko 1,5
miliona svojih gradjana. Preko polovinu njih ccine
deca koja nisu dozzivela peti rodjendan. Te sankcije - koje je
Savet bezbednosti OUN bio prinudjen da
donese pod pritiskom vlade SAD - direktno su krssenje
konvencije ?O genocidu? jer vode svesnom
unisstavanju civilnog stanovnisstva Iraka.
Sve komisije koje su po mandatu OUN poseccivale
Irak u poslednjih deset godina svedoccile su o
neljudskim patnjama naroda. Najodvazzniji eksperti tih komisija
otvoreno su protestovali protiv politike
sankcija i inspekcija koju su Sjedinjene Drzzave nametnule
Iraku. Vlada SAD ccak i program ?Nafta za
hranu? koji su OUN donele tek krajem 1996. godine, posle
medjunarodnog protesta protiv unisstavanja
naroda putem ekonomskog gussenja, koristi za svoje politiccke
manipulacije.
Stav Sjedinjenih Drzzava ozbiljno je kompromitovao
organizaciju kao ssto je OUN. Savet bezbednosti
OUN je, premda i pod prinudom, uccestvovao u zloccinima SAD
protiv mira i ccoveccanstva. Premda i pod
prinudom, ali kriv je za genocid.
Sada SAD bombarduju Irak kad god im se prohte.
Pritom su prinudjene da putem neprekidne
propagande satanizuju kako Sadama Huseina, tako i ccitav
iraccki narod, koristecci za to sredstva javnog
informisanja potpuno zavisna od vlade SAD.
Americcka propaganda je propaganda rasizma,
propaganda mrzznje i lazzi. Jucce je to bila
antisrpska kampanja, danas je antimuslimanska i tako dalje.
Nabrojaccu zemlje u kojima je politika SAD posle
Drugog svetskog rata dovela do destabilizacije:
Koreja, Vijetnam, Kambo?a, Nikaragva, Dominikanska Republika,
Filipini, Liberija, Kuba, Gvatemala,
Granada, Palestina, Liban, Iran, Somalija, Sudan, Haiti,
Salvador, Honduras, Angola, Hrvatska, Jugoslavija,
Sijera Leone, Irak, Indonezija, Avganistan. Ko je sledecci?
Glasila razmatraju mogucce kandidature.
Medjutim, imamo li ijednu ccinjenicu koja dokazuje krivicu
Iraka za bilo kakav zloccin protiv ccoveccanstva
tokom ccitave poslednje decenije? Mozzemo li izneti issta ssto
bi iole bilo nalik na zloccine Sjedinjenih
Drzzava protiv te zemlje? Cilj americcke politike je
uspostavljanje kontrole i vladavine na Bliskom Istoku, u
Persijskom zalivu i Centralnoj Aziji.
Mislim da bi bilo izuzetno vazzno kada bi Rusija
protestovala. I to ne samo na diplomatskom nivou ili u
sstampi, nego putem Saveta bezbednosti i Generalne skupsstine
OUN. Rusija je jedina zemlja koja mozze
stati na put SAD koje danas igraju ulogu narkomana opijenog
sopstvenim ?uspesima?.
- Ssta mislite o predsedniku Rusije Vladimiru
Putinu?
- Nama je ovde u Americi neverovatno slozzeno da
analiziramo radnje ruskog predsednika i tim pre
da izvlaccimo bilo kakve zakljuccke: mi nemamo verodostojnih
informacija niti ih mozzemo imati.
- Zassto? Kako to objassnjavate?
- Mislim da je stvar u tome ssto Sjedinjene Drzzave
ne zzele da ccuju nissta pozitivno o vassoj zemlji.
Kod nas ccuju samo one u Rusiji koji i dalje insistiraju na
takozvanim ?reformama? usmerenim, kao ssto je
poznato, na nass sopstveni procvat i genocid ruskog naroda. Sve
ostale informacije se blokiraju, iako se
ccuvaju u sefovima za aktivno misleccu agenturu s visokim
ekonomskim obrazovanjem.
Medjutim, ono ssto sam u stanju da analiziram
svedocci o tome da u najvazznijim pitanjima
predsednik Putin deluje onako kako mora delovati snazzan lider
koji brani interese svoje zemlje i svog
naroda. U spoljnoj politici, u najbitnijem za SAD pitanju novog
americckog sistema PRO, on afirmisse
nezavisnost Rusije. To govori da Rusija i dalje stoji na
stanovisstvu zasstite mira na Zemlji.
Po mom missljenju, delovanje predsednika Putina u
medjunarodnoj politici je najbolji i jedini mogucci
izbor u okolnostima u koje je njegova zemlja dovedena. Ccini mi
se da mu i u unutrassnjoj politici, premda uz
velike potesskocce, uspeva da postepeno blokira vecc reklo bi
se nekontrolisanu pljaccku zemlje i zaustavi
osiromassenje ruskog naroda. On mora da u najtezzim okolnostima
donosi odluke i deluje. I u tim
okolnostima on se nedvosmisleno ponassa kao snazzan i pouzdan
lider.
On ima vrlo pametan stav po pitanju NATO-a,
proglassavajucci tu gangstersku massinu za ?saborca i
druga? Rusije i samim tim neutralissucci NATO makar za izvesno
vreme. Rusiji je potrebno vreme da se
digne na noge i orijentisse u onome ssto se dessava.
- A savez sa Sjedinjenim Drzzavama u ?novom ratu s
terorizmom?? Mislite da je i to pametna igra,
dobitak za Rusiju?
- Ne, ne mislim. Brine me stav predsednika Ruske
Federacije po tom pitanju, possto vidim da je tu
upao u postavljenu klopku: shvatanje i otklanjanje pravih
uzroka katastrofe koju Rusija dozzivljava odlazze se
zbog medjunacionalnih ratova unutar zemlje, a sada i van njenih
granica. To je izum rasisticcke zemlje kao
ssto su SAD a za zemlje sa vissenacionalnim stanovnisstvom, na
primer, Jugoslaviju i Rusiju. Jer, to je
zvaniccan stav Vassingtona: ?Neka se sami potamane?. ?Etniccka
ccissccenja? - tragedija Jugoslavije -
sada su se okrenula protiv njenog slovenskog stanovnisstva.
Sjedinjenim Drzzavama je posslo za rukom da
od Rusije otkinu ssest bivssih republika Sovjetskog Saveza sa
svim njihovim prirodnim bogatstvima. Ta
politika nacionalne mrzznje imala je za rezultat to da je pod
udar dospeo ogroman broj Rusa koji zzive na
teritoriji tih bivssih republika.
Ruska Federacija je sada saveznik SAD i zajedno s
njima cce ratovati ?protiv islama?. Medjutim,
saveznisstvo sa SAD predstavlja izuzetno veliku opasnost za
Rusku Federaciju. Ono mozze dovesti do
konfrontacije zzitelja Rusije s okolnim muslimanskim zemljama i
sa muslimanima koji zzive u samoj Rusiji. To
potvrdjuje ?ispravnost? politike Vassingtona (?neka se sami
potamane?) i pruzzicce neprocenjivu pomocc
SAD u njihovoj geopoliticckoj agresiji.
Zato mi se ccini da Rusija sada treba da ulozzi
neverovatne napore da bi povratila prijateljstvo i
poverenje muslimana.
- Ssta mislite, hocce li Rusija saccuvati
suverenitet i nezavisnost?
- Verujem da hocce. Mozzda bi bolje bilo recci:
nadam se... Bio sam mnogo puta u Rusiji. Ruski narod
poseduje veliku snagu. I njegova volja za nezavisnost nema
analoga u istoriji ccoveccanstva.
... Ovih dana sam bio na probi Kirovskog baleta u
karnegi-holu. Ruska muzika! Ruski muziccari!..
Koliku snagu ti ljudi imaju! Treba slussati rusku muziku da bi
se shvatilo koliko je taj narod velik. Jako volim
rusku muziku. Zato i govorim o snazi tog naroda...
Tessko da ljudi na Zapadu shvataju do kolike bede i
ponizzenja je taj narod doveden. To bi u nama
moralo izazvati uzzasavanje, a ne likovanje povodom ?uspeha?
nasse hajke protiv Rusije joss od poccetka
prosslog veka!
Ali, narod cce se dicci. Ja to posmatram s velikom
radossccu. Vidim prozrenje, zapazzam rastucce
kretanje u smeru stvaranja vecce federacije - to jest obnove
onoga ssto je tako neodgovorno bilo srusseno.
Zemlja postepeno prevazilazi stanje defetizma u kom je toliko
ranjiva.
Strani kapital, ekonomska agresija nijednoj zemlji
nisu doneli nissta osim postepenog i potpunog
osiromassenja, potpune zavisnosti od tog kapitala.
Smatram da cce period ekonomske recesije koji sada
u medjunarodnim razmerama napreduje,
nesumnjivo pomocci Rusiji da opet pronadje sebe. Zassto? Pa
zato ssto ekonomija Rusije ne zavisi od onih
vesstacckih ccinilaca na kojima se temelji ekonomija SAD ili
Japana, na primer. A obnova unisstene
ekonomije Rusije zalog je njenog preporoda u koji, kao ssto
rekoh, verujem. Ili - hoccu da se nadam...
- Kada su SAD bombardovale Srbiju ccesto se moglo
ccuti: ?Rusija je sledecca!? Da li je rat izmedju
SAD i Rusije mogucc?
- Mislim da nije. Ali, mogucce su stotine
takozvanih ?malih ratova? koji cce nas drzzati pod stalnom
pretnjom onog nuklearnog. Karakter rata se menja posle pojave
vazduhoplovne super-sile. Ubijanje iz
vazduha bespomoccnog stanovnisstva ili naoruzzanog protivnika
(koji je, ispostavlja se, u doticcnom sluccaju
isto toliko bespomoccan) - to je ono ?novo lice? rata kojim se
SAD danas toliko ponose. Niko se u
Sjedinjenim Drzzavama ne optereccuje brojanjem civilnog
stanovnisstva ubijenog u takvim bombardovanjima.
I armija SAD ratuje ?bez gubitaka?... To je sramota, ali se
zato ?isplati?!
Mislim da je svetu danas veoma potrebna jaka i
nezavisna Rusija, possto je ruski narod jedini u stanju
da zaustavi tu opijenost ubijanjem koja u SAD traje od trenutka
zavrssetka hladnog rata. Hladni rat nije bio
Vassingtonu smetnja za monstruozne zloccine protiv
ccoveccanstva, ali je snazzan Sovjetski Savez
spreccavao SAD od agresivnih ccinova krupnih razmera. A sada se
sve ?mozze?: smenjivati nepozzeljne
vlade, organizovati atentate na predsednike, mozze se
bombardovati sve ssto se krecce, mozze se
naoruzzavati Izrael da unisstava Palestince i optuzzivati
Arafat za ?terorizam?...
Rusija je jedina nacija sposobna da sprecci razvoj
genocidnog scenarijuma. Narod Kine nije u stanju
da odigra tu ulogu. Kineski narod je dospeo u drugu klopku -
takmiccenja za ekonomsku mocc. To - ako bude
srecce - vodi ka snu o super-sili. To cce, sa svoje strane,
nastaviti politiku Sjedinjenih Drzzava uperenu na
unisstavanje malih i bespomoccnih nacija a u cilju njihove
eksploatacije.
Zato liccno ja verujem (ili hoccu da se nadam) da
cce narod Rusije - zbog svog internacionalnog
naccina missljenja i istorijske prosslosti - nassavssi sebe,
uspeti da postane centar odvraccanja za SAD i to
cce se blagotvorno odraziti na stanje ccitavog sveta.
- Da dotaknemo temu globalizma i antiglobalista.
- Sigurno je da je u toku napad na globalizaciju.
Ljudi su pocceli da shvataju da je globalizacija
smrtonosna za njihove kulture. I oni ne zzele da sve ssto je
ccoveccanstvo milenijumima stvaralo zamene za
uliccna kolica s hamburgerima.
Nedavno sam ccuo od jednog komentatora koji je
branio ideju eksploatacije nafte na Aljasci:
?Nazivajucci taj proces ?istrazzivanje?, dajete mi na znanje da
ste njegov pristalica, a ako govorite o
?pravljenju naftnih bussotina? - jasno je da ste protiv?. Kako
da Sjedinjene Drzzave, kojima pripada 75 %
sredstava MMF i STO, drugaccije nazovu ekonomski napad na tudje
zemlje i narode koji joss nisu uspeli da
sasvim prekopaju i unakaze svoje zemlje bogate prirodnim
resursima? Stari termin ?kolonizacija? mozzda se
necce svideti, pogotovo onim narodima koji su vecc u nekoliko
navrata ?globalizovani? u cilju usavrssavanja
civilizacije. Globalizacija je eufemizam i nissta drugo. Morao
bi se dicci protest protiv lazzi koja stoji iza njega.
I - na zaprepassccenje umornog sveta - demonstracije protiv
globalizacije izvele su na ulice na hiljade
uglavnom mladih. Raduje me njihova masovna pojava: to govori o
zdravoj prirodi ccoveka.
Globalizacija nema nikakvu drugu motivaciju osim
profita. Danas, u uslovima pada ekonomskih
pokazatelja u SAD, rat, i to po moguccstvu veccih razmera,
postaje sve potrebniji poljuljanoj americckoj
ekonomiji. A za to se ne mozze smisliti nissta bolje od ?borbe
s terorizmom?. To je jedna strana medalje.
S druge strane, dok taj rat nije zavrssen, recesija
kocci globalizaciju. A da ne govorim o tome da cce
Sjedinjene Drzzave morati da terorissu ne samo spoljnog
neprijatelja, nego i sopstveno stanovnisstvo,
gradjane Amerike. Nedavno je ?Njujork-Tajms? objavio cclanak
pod naslovom ?Zemlji su potrebni zatvori?.
Ispostavlja se da nam nisu potrebne ni sskole, ni bolnice. Ali
cce zato broj zatvorenika premassiti sadassnji
broj od dva miliona... A sve to u situaciji kada kod nas pre
recesije 48 % gradjana nije imalo pristup
medicinskim uslugama, a odredjeni procenat svrssenih djaka
nassih sskola ne ume, kako se pokazalo, ni da
ccita ni da pisse.
Nass zadatak je da ljudima objasnimo ssta je to u
stvari globalizacija. To je odricanje od nacionalne
nezavisnosti. To je odricanje naroda od svojih milenijumima
formiranih kultura. To je uskraccivanje nassoj
deci moguccnosti da grade svoj zzivot na nivou ekonomske
dovoljnosti. I ako svet to joss nije shvatio na
primeru svih zemalja Latinske Amerike, Afrike, malih i velikih
ostrva Zapadne i Istoccne polulopte cciji narodi
ginu u borbi protiv stogodissnje globalizacije njihovih zemalja
i kultura; ako napad na slovensko stanovnisstvo
Balkana i na muslimanski narod Iraka, bombardovanje iraccke
dece i glad dece Avganistana u vama joss
uvek ne izazivaju zdravi gnev, onda i treba da nas zgaze zbog
nasse potpune gradjanske neodgovornosti. Ali,
ja sam optimista. I vidim da protiv globalizacije sve visse
protestuju zasstitnici ccovekove okoline, farmeri,
verski lideri, studenti, djaci, radniccki odbori, drusstvene
organizacije... To je ustanak.
- Verujete li da taj ustanak necce biti najsurovije
ugussen? ?Zemlji su potrebni zatvori?...
- Zasad ne mogu recci da je pokret protiv
globalizacije stekao snagu sposobnu da se odupre
surovosti apologeta globalizma. Ali sam uveren da je on vecc
izmakao kontroli i da cce se u povoljnom sticaju
okolnosti, kao ssto je kriza na trzzisstima, konsolidovati.
