URGENT FUNDRAISING APPEAL

******************************

President Milosevic has the truth and law on his side. In order to
use that
advantage to achieve his freedom, we must fight this totally
discredited
tribunal and its patrons through professionally conducted actions
which
would involve the Bar Associations, the European Court, the UN
organs in
charge and the media.

Our practice has shown that ad hoc voluntary work is not enough to
deal
properly with these tasks. The funds secured in Serbia are still
enough only
to cover the expenses of the stay and work of President Milosevic's
legal
associates at The Hague (one at the time). The funds secured by the
German
section of the ICDSM (still the only one with regular contributions)
are
enough only to cover minimal additional work at The Hague connected
with
contacts and preparations of foreign witnesses. Everything else is
lacking.

***********************************************************

3000-5000 EUR per month is our imminent need.

Our history and our people oblige us to go on with this necessary
action.
But without these funds it will not be possible.

Please organize urgently the fundraising activity
and send the donations to the following ICDSM accounts:

accompanying activities, on instruction or with the consent of
President
Milosevic. To
